It's downloading now, weird. I swear i had quit and restarted the game.

Thx for the heads up, now it's my turn to inform my brother, he doesn't have a clue either.

:D

haha, you're welcome. :) I think a lot of people who haven't been following the whole launch-DLC debate were confused by it. Enjoy Shale.

btw... it looks like if you don't have internet access, you can't load a save game that includes DLC material. Yea...on a single-player game, DLCs force you to have internet access. That's really, really sickening.

The reason I know is that I loaded into DA and hit 'continue' and got a big popup that said that I wasn't logged into Bioware or whatever and couldn't load a game that had DLC. Needless to say, my hatred of DLCs just increased significantly.

If I can replicate the error, I'll screenshot it.

Here we go. Guess I can't play my single player game in airports, on airplanes, at relatives' houses, or anywhere else I don't have internet access. Lamz0r!

Mm, lame indeed. Not that I don't believe you, but I'm gonna try and look into this. You would think we would have heard a massive choir of Angry Internet Men about this if it were really that fucked up, I mean.

I went ahead and tested it, and you CAN play the game without an internet connection. I don't know why the hell that message would come up, but I killed Steam, logically killed my network connection, started Steam in offline mode, and was able to successfully fire up Dragon Age and load a game. So, never mind my nay-saying, though the error still troubles me some.

On an aside, Shale screwed up in my game. any time I talked to him, it would warp me outside of my current map and restart the 'do you want to activate the golem' stuff it does in the village. I googled it and apparently this isn't uncommon. The fix I found was to enable the developer console, run a script for shale, and kind of readd him to the party. This fixed my issues entirely, though it's a bit annoying.

Good to hear! Yeah, surprisingly, EA is actually the coolest big-time producer around when it comes to game-stopping DRM these days. If you'd told me that 2 years ago i'd have called you crazy. :roll:

Other than that pretty annoying-sounding hitch, digging Shale so far? I hope you had him in your party when you left the village you find him in. :lol:

Yea, he's decent. I can't recall if I had him partied then or not, to be honest, but at this point I've pretty much swapped out Sten for Shale. Currently in Orzammar going after Jarvia.

Well if you don't remember the 'chicken event'* then you probably didn't. :P



* As you know, he pathologically hates birds. When you leave the little village, you suddenly hear a "SPLUT" sound behind you. You look back and you see Shale standing in a cloud of chicken feathers, shrugging his shoulders in a "what?" gesture. Hi-la-ri-ous.
