deletedxyz Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I'm not a fan of RPG's with multiple characters and the point and click once combat but I'll definitely give this game a shot since it's an RPG made by Bioware. Here's to hoping that it has an outstanding quality.

arrrgh Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Been playing the Dragon Age: Journeys flash game for a while, I guess it's kinda fun. It's a fairly simple turn-based game using skills from Dragon Age, you can also unlock some items for Dragon Age: Origins by completing quests in the flash game. http://www.dragonagejourneys.com/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/834066-official-dragon-age-origins/page/2/#findComment-591751568 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slammers Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Reviews have been out for a few days, general consensus is best d&d based rpg since Baldurs gate. For me this should mean best RPG of all time hopefully.

yxz Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Six unique origin stories, each with a story that affects the game as a whole. Spell interactions (eg. ‘Blizzard’ can put out fires, and fire spells can ignite grease from a grease spell). http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Age:_Origins In Dragon Age: Origins, player characters of either gender and any race can pursue a heterosexual or homosexual romance. http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Romance :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/834066-official-dragon-age-origins/page/2/#findComment-591780850 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted November 2, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted November 2, 2009 Yup I can't wait for this. Totally avoiding it on the 360/PS3 though after seeing Giantbombs quick look, while fairly innovative, the console control/menu management scheme is complete fail. A game like this needs the hotbar.

Pheee Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Yeah if I was to get this, it would have to be PC experience, looking at both Quick looks on Giantbomb, the PC version gameplay fits the Genre better. Dont get me wrong, the Console version may be great, but I think with this type of RPG, a controller has its limits. Of course my opinion.

Draken Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 93 on metacritic :woot: Some reviews: Meristation Bioware has managed to update and evolve the formula that made Baldur's Gate 2 a classic, creating an engaging, rich, and solidly fantastic universe that feels consistently coherent and credible. Dragon Age is a triumph that shows, among other things, how the core values of the traditional roleplaying genre are still valid, managing to include a complete and versatile combat system that welcomes new players and will challenge veterans, with difficult encounters where tactics are the key to victory. Overall, it's a really special RPG, which truly deserves to be called "epic". PC Zone UK Dragon Age: Origins is a brave and brutal return to form for PC fantasy roleplaying - bettering nearest rival The Witcher through both its combat and the innate lovability of so many of its characters...With Dragon Age: Origins BioWare have secured their position as masters of the RPG art. That game is hot Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/834066-official-dragon-age-origins/page/2/#findComment-591793846 Share on other sites More sharing options...
x9248 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 /not reading the whole thread This game is amazing. I heard that the console versions dumb down larger fights, so instead of fighting 20 mobs at the same time on PC you get waves of 5 on consoles. That's a real killer right there. I've only played about 2 hours of it, so far it's fairly linear. Story > Dungeon/Castle Crawling > Story > etc. I hope the world opens up freely eventually...
