Dragon Age: Origins Review

DA_Thumb_05_SITE
The Short Version: Dragon Age is Hands Down the Best RPG of 2009! With a Hundreds of Hours of Gameplay, an Engaging Story and Compelling Dialogue there is so much Value packed into this title it deserves a place in your Game Library. Do not overlook this title in this busy season!

The Review:



What you’ll Like:
• Truly Epic 50+ Hour Experience in a Single Play-Through!
• 6 Unique Origins Stories with unique story modifications.
• Excellent Dialogue from Interesting Companion Characters.
• Great amount of Variety and Customizations Options.
• Choices are meaningful with Real Consequences.

What you’ll Hate:
• The Main Character does not Have Spoken Dialogue as in Mass Effect. WHY?!
• The PC Version is Superior to the Console. No Over Head View.
• Graphics could use a bit more work.
• Its a Rare Occasion, but sometimes the Quests Drag on too long (im looking at you “Fade Quest”).

Final Verdict:
9/10

    Being a huge fan of this game, I will have to agree. While Joe was correct that the PC version is Vastly superior to the console versions ( MODS FTW) I would have to say that sometimes having a controller would be nice as well. This game has not only spawned quite the following ( I have heard rumors of a fan made DAO movie using the tool set that the PC version has) It has its own table top version that is rather decent for those that play them ( I happen to be one of them). So To you Joe, I give your review a thumbs up as it was correct on all angles of the game. PC version has better graphics then the console BTW.

    Graphics do not make the game nor does the main characters voice acting. They have many “voice sets” for the character but there was to much dialogue to get them all voiced. Everything else I agree.
