| I never had to restart after downloading, but I won't hurt.
Be aware that even if "The Stone Prisoner" is installed and shows up in your Downloadable Content Section, you wont actually be able to access it until after you finish the Lothering Quests (same for Wardens' Keep DLC) - both cannot be accessed until you've finish Lothering and are due to choose which of the Treaties to follow.
Both Blood Dragon Armour and The Edge *should* appear in the inventory of every character you create - though you'll need to meet the requirements to use them, Blood Dragon Armour will be grayed out unless you have a character with at least 38 STR for example. |

| It really is awesome, isn't it? I'm on run through number 3 and I believe Nord has now done all the Origin stories! This is definately not the only game in the Dragon Age series, at a minimum they'll be doing a Trilogy (as they are with Mass Effect) but its possible there may be even more. With the Pen'n'Paper RPG just being released there is "plenty of life in the old girl yet!"  |

| You have got to be kidding me! Dragon Age was utterly boring! Am not a fan of this game at all. Now that i got your attention, let me just say that words cannot describe the awesomeness of this game! IT FREAKIN RULES!! Been playing the hell out of it since it came out.  |

| I've had it a week or two and I'm still only just out of Lorthen whater its name is, oh and I don't have the armour at all, I suppose you need to start the game with it downloaded, ah well I'm a mage anyway nevemind, is wardens keep worth the money LW? I find it a bit sneaky how they have a character asking you to complete a quest but yu have to buy it first  (Thats EA for you) |

| If you got the code in with your CD (or in an email with Steam I believe) and you've entered that in at the BioWare site, it should be available in your "Downloadable Content" section the next time you load up. If you download that and its not in your inventory - something is up, get on to BW. Is the connection dropping when you play? (in other words is it "logging you out"?) As for Warden's Keep? debatable. Its quite a small quest (barely over an hour) but it is kinda fun, and you get a HUGE storage chest for your party there. However I wasn't able to get it until late into the game so never really got to utilise the inventory effectively and, frankly, got by without it. What WAS cool though is that in one of the random encounters you can get a "meteorite" from a "crater" where a baby was found and looked after by a kindly old couple (LOL! He leaps tall castles in a single bound  ) but when you complete Wardens' Keep you get access to a superior smith as well, and he can forge that meteroite into either a two-handed or one-handed blade of superior quality. I made the 1h one, and it was called Starfang. Easily the best sword I've come across. |

| Wow, you cheat with guides!?  Nah, just kidding! I personally never use guides cos I do feel like it's somehow cheating. Silly, I know^^ It probably stems from the shcoolground culture of snobbery in the early days of console ARPG gaming.  |

| If it helps I didn't use it until after I beat the game first time. Like you, I can't bring myself to use them them most of the time, it makes me feel cheap  However, once I've played the game I like to replay it to 100% completion and for that, these guides are awesome. I can't tell you the amount of times I facepalmed after reading the guide to Mass Effect after my first run-through. Well, I can tell you it was 'lots' - but not the exact number  |
