I just started playing the first one and I'm trying to get Alistair in bed but I might buy this one too.

That helps A TON to get everyone's approval rate up. I was just randomly giving any gift to Allistair and it bottomedout to +1 real fast. If you check this every time you get a gift, it'll tell you who it's suppose to go to, significantly raising approval to anywhere from +6 or higher. You should be able to get Allistair in bed by the time you get into the castle and into Eamon's study and find his mother's amulet.

There is an insert in the box of a picture of a dragon in the Dragon Age made-of-blood style, with the date 02.01.2011 and nothing more. TANTALIZING!

If you haven't started playing yet, you should definitely get these mods if you have any intention of using Warden's Keep / Stone Prisoner items or your Power of Blood abilities from Warden's Keep (Return to Ostagar, strangely, is not affected by the bug and therefore items from that DLC import without any problems): http://social.bioware.com/project/2310/
You want the "KigenPatch_All_In_One" and the "KigenWakenPatch". Follow the directions on the page. It's easy.
I finally started playing it last night, and though I haven't gotten very far (actually, I haven't left the starting area), there's already some things I like. The biggest of which is the ability to totally respec your player character or any of your party members, as many times as you want, for 6g per respec. I picked up a rogue that came built as an archer, but I had already outfitted him with Cunning gear and daggers, so I respecced him out of laziness. Giving myself 8000g before importing my character helped with that decision ;)
Oh, and be forewarned, nothing in your Party Chest in Warden's Keep (or your Party Chest in the Camp, if you used that mod) will import - ONLY equipped items and items in your inventory will carry over. Go ahead and fill up your inventory before importing; there's a new chest pretty early on in the game. I'd leave myself maybe 20 spaces to pick up stuff before reaching that point, but it probably won't make a difference.

This expansion is even easier than Origins, on Normal difficulty... or perhaps my warrior is too powerful with all the extra talents I gave him in Origins. Either way, the most challenging enemy I've encountered was not even a boss, and two of them managed to kill two of my party pretty much instantly because I ran up in there without paying attention to what was going on. Beware the Blighted Werewolves! They will eat your face (literally).

I just finished it. Meh. Sucked that you couldn't get it on with anyone though =/ You can't even really talk to anyone unless it was a cut away scene =/
