📋 About This Mod
Just to be clear; this is not a perfect fix. I can only say for sure that this will work if you're playing as the Hero of Ferelden and you have chosen to try to protect everything, or just the farmlands, during "Defending the Land" quest. I have not tested this with an Orlesian warden or any of the other choices in "Defending the Land".
Just drop the file in your override folder to install.

A compact bug fix for Dragon Age: Origins that prevents Varel from incorrectly claiming you gave in to the peasants during the Awakening riot scene, ensuring you get the good epilogue slide. With 747 endorsements and 22,905 downloads, it's a well-received fix for a specific narrative issue.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 747 endorsements—clearly a fix players wanted.
- Tiny, focused mod that does exactly one thing and does it well.
- High download-to-endorsement ratio (22,905 downloads) shows it's widely used.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020—may not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
- Only fixes one specific scene; if you're looking for broader Awakening improvements, this isn't it.
For Dragon Age: Origins players who've been annoyed by the unfair epilogue slide after a successful persuasion. If you're a completionist who wants the best ending, this is a must-have. Skip if you don't care about epilogue variations or if you never persuade the peasants.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the mod file in your Dragon Age: Origins 'override' folder (Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age/packages/core/override) to ensure it loads without a mod manager.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, make sure to enable the mod and check for conflicts with other Awakening tweaks.
- Test the riot scene early in Awakening to confirm the fix works before investing hours into a playthrough.
