  Dragon Age: Inquisition - Jaws of Hakkon [PC] [2014]

It's been about four months since I've spent quality time in the world of Thedas--nearly
70 hours' worth of it. This week's content release for Dragon Age: Inquisition, Jaws of
Hakkon, may have jump started my engine, reminding me what I love most about the
core game: the sense of wonder, the thematic richness, a fantastic sense of place and
personality. The new adventure becomes available in the second act of the game, taking
your Inquisitor to the Frostback Basin, the foothills and valley near the mountain range at
the southern end of Thedas. You've been called in to provide support for an
archaeological survey of the region that is searching for the final resting place of the
world's last Inquisitor, Ameridan. While piecing together the mystery of Ameridan, you'll
have to navigate the region's complex geography and even more complex sociopolitical
relationships.

The Frostback Basin is a deceptively big zone. What seems easily conquerable on the
map screen is actually a sizable and intricate mix of environments. Foothills open up into
plateaus, which feature deep, dangerous pits. A lakeshore runs into the bubbling, muddy
shallows of the basin, and those turn into misty swamplands and damp jungles. It's all

brought to life with vibrant color and fresh ambient sounds. The Frostback Basin feels
distinct from the game's other zones, and it's mostly a joy to explore.

The environments in Jaws of Hakkon really show off Inquisition’s lighting engine.

I say "mostly," because sometimes it feels like BioWare is trying to stretch out the
available content in Jaws of Hakkon. Over the course of eight hours in the Frostback
Basin, five different missions make you "follow the trail" across territory you've already
explored thoroughly in the course of doing other missions. Most egregious is a mission
that sends you around to flip a number of switches scattered across the northern half of
the zone. For the previous six hours of play, these switches had been visible but inactive,
and I knew that they'd send me back eventually. They did. This decision is particularly
strange because Hakkon doesn't need to be stretched in any way. The Frostback Basin is
packed with all of the elements that made me love Inquisition to begin with: smart
characterization, interesting combat encounters, and carefully written lore.

The Frostback Basin is home to two rival tribes of the Avvar, a human society that briefly
pops up early on in Inquisition. The development of these groups (and of the region's
history in general) is the high point of Hakkon, and you'll get the most out of this DLC if
you dig into the lore about these people and their culture and religion. Dragon Age has
always been at its best when the stories it tells are multifaceted and mysterious, and the
same is true here: Religious iconography blurs together; magical traditions are at once
remarkably similar and fundamentally different; and the final, "true" history is often left
unknown.

What’s better than hanging out on a moonlit beach with some buds?

Best of all, the Avvar work to break apart the classic binaries that show up throughout the
Dragon Age series. They share the Elven relationship to nature, but are human. They're
human, but don't belong to any of the major political powers. They're deeply spiritual, but
also incredibly practical. They have a strict system to govern the use of magic, but use
terms and concepts to explain the magical world that are entirely different than those used
by the Templars and Circle of Mages. All of this works to complicate the world of
Thedas by providing yet another potential perspective to consider.

This makes it extra frustrating that so little of Jaws of Hakkon shares the cinematic sheen
of the rest of Inquisition. Most other zones in the world of Thedas have a mix of two
different sorts of quests. Firstly, there are the little, MMOG-style missions you complete
for this or that character: kill ten bears, or recover a missing satchel, or perform some
other small task. Secondly, there are the major story missions that take you out of the
third-person perspective and into a cutscene view, where dramatic music supports
characters who emote and animate as the plot unfolds. In Hakkon, only the very
beginning and very end of the main questline offer this second sort of storytelling.
Throughout the rest of my eight hours, I watched as world-shaking information was
delivered without any pomp or luster.

Learning about the Avvar culture is a highlight.

If you told me last week that this would bother me, I'd tell you that you'd be absolutely
wrong. But here I am, missing the intimate close-ups and the sweeping vistas. (Maybe
this shouldn't be be surprising: Imagine an episode of Game of Thrones that never shows
the detail of a character's face.) Over the course of the previous 70 hours, Dragon Age:
Inquisition had quietly taught me to expect a certain rhythm: I'd meander around a zone
until I was ready to commit to one of the many "big" story events. There was a sort of
storytelling grammar at work, and by reducing the use of that grammar, Hakkon rarely
feels as substantial as it should. Thankfully, the final hour or so of Hakkon does utilize
those storytelling tools to great effect, and it joins them with some new, unique
mechanics in a series of major combat encounters that build momentum and velocity
until an explosive climax.

Though I wish that Jaws of Hakkon was less bloated, and though I miss the cinematic
flair of the rest of Dragon Age: Inquisition, I know that in a month I'll have forgotten
these quibbles. Instead, I'll remember my time spent in Frostback Basin fondly. I'll
remember the sharp wit of Svarah Sun-Hair, the leader of the local Avvar clan. I'll
remember the holy symbols that blur the line between competing faiths. I'll remember the
mist and the mountains and the sun's light through the trees. I'll remember confronting
legendary foes, and the time I got to spend with some of my favorite characters in video
games.
