Question about Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition

Its been years since I played them all on 360, but some are set between the original and Awakening, some are set after both, and at least one happens before the two. There is also one that happens during the game, and another which doesn't happen at all, acting as an alternate reality where the player wasn't around to help.

I recommend just playing them after you are done with the rest of the game, unless you want the extra items each will unlock in the main game.

Also, look up the free DLCs here on the forum, there should be an old topic about them somewhere here on SG.

Warden's Keep, Return to Ostagar and The Stone Prisoner are all played out during Origins. With those out of the way, I'd say go with Origins, Awakening and then anything in the order you want - it doesn't really matter, since those stories are independant from each other.

Leliana's Song is set before DA:O; Stone Prisoner, Warden's Keep and Return to Ostagar are all directly in the game (you can't play them seperately), but as Delta said, you should play the original first, and then the addons, except for those in the game already.

As DeltaBladeX pointed, plus Return to Return to Ostagar, Warden's Keep and The Stone Prisoner are all added in the main campaign.
One of these days maybe I should find someone to get the Ultimate Edition. Those other DLCs look quite interesting for a fan of the game.

Pretty sure it doesn't really matter... It's an open-world thing, after all. For example, I did Warden's Keep immediately after I hit the camp just so I'd have the Party Chest from the get-go. As far as I know, the only 'restriction' is that Witch Hunt happens after the main story of Origins.

thank you all for your answers and tips

The Darkspawn Chronicles, Leliana's Song, The Golems of Amgarrak and Witch Hunt are side stories (like Awakening, you don't need to play main game to play them) but they add items to main (and Awakening) after winning them (or at least getting some achievos).

But then they might have some spoilers.

No, this list is incorrect, i finished the game 5 times and i would say:

1. DA:O - during DA:O: Warden's Keep, Return to Ostagar, The Stone Prisoner -------
2. The Darkspawn Chronicles, Witch hunt, Leliana's song, Golem's of Amgarrak (at this point, the order doesn't matter) ------
3. DA: Awakening --------
   If you would like to know Leliana's back story before you play DA:O, obviously play it before you start the story, it won't spoil anything from DA:O storyline.

If You want play as rogue play Leliana's Song first, you will have nice armor in orgins and awakening for rogue

I was wondering. To those who have the Ultimate edition, how many hours can you get you of the side story DLCs ?

It is long established that the only order that makes sense canon-wise is as follows:

1. Dragon Age Origins

2. Dragon Age Origins Awakening

3. Fortix 2

4. Secret of the Magic Crystals

5. My Little Pony: Friendship Gardens

6. My Little Pony: Twilight Sparkle, Teacher for a Day

7. My Little Pony: Pinkie Pie's Party

8. Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition.

9. Dark Souls 2

10. My Little Pony Crystal Princess: The Runaway Rainbow

11. Manhunt

I'd play Leliana's Song first. Then Origins - with Return to Ostagar, the Stone Prisoner, and Warden's Keep being content in Origins. Darkspawn Chronicles for kicks next. Then Awakening. Witch Hunt. Golems of Amgarrak should be last.
