EndSights gives it a 3/5:
Completing the content will take 45 minutes to an hour. The DLC isn't too story-heavy as you'll be fighting most of the way through it; in addition, the ending to the content doesn't make it clear that it's officially over, which left me to question whether or not I was done and/or if I had missed something. All in all, learning the fate of King Cailan is interesting and the loot is worth finding. It's interesting while it lasts, but unfortunately it ends sooner than you might hope.
Rpad.tv doesn't offer a score:
Perhaps people that are still in the middle of their first run or those starting the game for the first time will get more out of Return to Ostagar. While I definitely enjoyed my time with the DLC and will surely play it again, I can't say it's a (must buy). Less than an hour of gameplay and gear that's only above average for $5? If you really love the game and/or BioWare then knock yourself out. Otherwise, give it some thought before you drop your dough.
And Addicted to Gaming gives it a 3.5/5:
A rather short DLC, but as I said at the beginning of my review, I honestly did not expect anything more than an hour from a piece of content that barely cost me a fiver to purchase. I genuinely enjoyed revisiting Ostagar again and seeing what happened to Cailan. I am a little peeved that Duncan's corpse was not lying around in the snow I (although his sword and dagger were found in the Ogre's corpse), but no doubt there will be a mention of the great mentor some time in the future.. Perhaps the upcoming expansion, Awakening, will shed some light on his tale?
