Draken Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Dragon Age: Origins As the spiritual successor to BioWare?s Baldur?s Gate?, one of the most successful role-playing games in the industry, Dragon Age: Origins represents BioWare?s return to its roots, delivering a fusion of the best elements of existing fantasy works with stunning visuals, emotionally-driven narrative, heart-pounding combat, powerful magic abilities and credible digital actors. The spirit of classic RPGs comes of age, as Dragon Age: Origins features a dark and mature story and gameplay. ote]More at Teamxbox _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/834066-official-dragon-age-origins/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevyordeath Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I can't wait for this. I am such a huge fan of Bioware! I absolutely loved Baldurs Gate, and the first NWN, and Mass Effect.. and pretty much everything they've ever did! I picked up Risen for PC, and it's pretty fun, reminds me of The Witcher. It will hold me over until November 3rd! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/834066-official-dragon-age-origins/#findComment-591712024 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastage Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Yesterday the deluxe edition was only 55usd on steam :( it was a mistake by steam, now the price is up to 65usd just like everywhere else.

Fred Derf Veteran Posted October 17, 2009 Veteran Share Posted October 17, 2009 (edited) XP MINIMUM SPECS * OS: Windows XP with SP3 * CPU: Intel Core 2(or equivalent) running at 1.4Ghz or greater - AMD X2(or equivalent) running at 1.8Ghz or greater * RAM: 1GB or more * VIDEO: ATI Radeon X850 128MB or greater - NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT 128MB or greater DVD ROM (Physical copy) 20 GB HD space VISTA MINIMUM SPECS * OS: Windows Vista with SP1 * CPU: Intel Core 2 (or equivalent) running at 1.6Ghz or greater * RAM: 1.5 GB or more * VIDEO: ATI Radeon X1550 256MB or greater - NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT 256MB or greater DVD ROM (Physical copy) 20 GB HD space They are asking for quite a bit more for those that run Vista. Either way, one usually need to have the recommended specs to fully enjoy something like this. RECOMMENDED SPECS * CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4Ghz Processor or equivalent - AMD Phenom II X3 Triple-Core 2.8 GHz or greater * RAM: 4 GB (Vista) or 2 GB (XP) * VIDEO: ATI 3850 512 MB or greater - NVIDIA 8800GTS 512 MB or greater DVD ROM (Physical copy) 20 GB HD space While many Neowinians can probably handle this, it means upgrade time for me. Again there are asking for significantly more RAM for those running Vista (twice as much in this case).

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted October 17, 2009 Veteran Share Posted October 17, 2009 Thanks for posting that, Fred Derf. I exceed all the recommended specs except for the CPU. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.2 GHz. It should be enough to run it at medium-high settings.

Draken Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 anyone knows if the character creator requirements and the final version are the same?

Xilo Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 anyone knows if the character creator requirements and the final version are the same? Basically, yes. From what I've read on the DAO forums, if you can run the character creator you can run the game.
