NMM doesn't support any Dragon Age-series game, and never has. The replacement for NMM (Vortex) also doesn't support DA-games very well.

Similarly, you may ask, does vortex work with Origin?

Origin Support Comes to Vortex (with Apex Legends!) We are happy to announce that Electronic Arts Origin platform is now supported on Vortex Cloud Gaming! Use cloud gaming to enjoy the same quality you would on any high-end gaming console or PC for just $9.99/mo.

Also Know, is Dragon Age Origins still good? One of the best RPGs I ever played and by far the best of the series and one of Bioware's best games ever made. Make sure to get all the DLCs. Combat can be really lackluster depending on which class you choose. The story itself is pretty amazing though.

Moreover, does vortex support Dragon Age Inquisition?

Vortex won't be able to support them at all because of the type of engine that Frostbite is. You can't just drop files into an override folder, like you can with other games. To mod DAI, you need to use either the DAI Mod Manager, or Frosty.

Do I play Dragon Age Origins or Awakening first?

The DLCs are largely standalone, & you can play them in whatever order you like. Chronologically, you would play Leliana's Song first, then Origins itself, then Awakening, then The Golems of Amgarrak, then Witch Hunt.
