So is the expansion game a separate option from the main menu? How can you go straight to the Island after starting the game? They packaged two separate games on one disc?

You know when i first got Dragons Dogma 6 months almost after its release i really wanted the game but of course being a family man and not having the money i wish i had to buy games i was forced to wait, so finally i got it and not two months later Dark Arisen released making me feel like i got the shaft, but after doing some research on it i learned that Capcom went all out making this expansion and it was to large to put out as dlc, and why they just didnt do it like Dragon Age did with the Awakening, but im sure they had there reasons.
So then came the question is it worth it to fork over more money to get Dark Arisen and my answer to that is if you really like DD or dont own it yes, if you own the original copy of DD then personally i would play the original and by the time you get almost done with it, im sure Dark Arisen will be a little cheaper and worth the purchase, but anyway Dragons Dogma in itself is an awesome rpg and really the only pick i really have on the game is the mapping, now what were they thinking the only way to see your objectives is to look at the map and then when you exit the map they ( being the mark of your objective ) is gone so basicly every time you want to see where your going in conjunction to where you are you have to pull up the map, and in Dark Arisen i really hoped they would have fixed this but they didnt.
So Dark Arisen adds about 20 hours to a already 80 plus hour game and you start the expansion at the village pier and go to an Island called Bitterback Isle a cursed island at that and if your expecting a vacation your sadly mistaken cause you spend the 20 plus hours underground and although you better make sure you have plenty of lantern oil, it is dark but very dangerous i mean even death himself in the form of the grim reaper is down there and will kill you, track you down and kill your ghost hes that bad. Theres 25 new enemys down there and hundreds of new weapons equipment etc. then you got more character customization.
Another really cool thing about this game is if you do own DD and have your save with the new DA you do get to keep your saves,dlc and anything else from your original game, and yes this game is worth the purchase in my opinion.
