The Dragon Age thread

So who's playing it right now? How do you like the game so far?

It's really one of the best RPG I ever played. I just finished the game this morning after 40ish hours spent in it. This is the ending I got:

Hidden Content:

Allistair slept with Morrigan and she left with the baby. Allistair is now king and I'm his counselor. Lelliana lives with me. Pretty much everything in the world is going well except for the dwarves. Their king (lord Harrowmount or w/e how you spell it) got poisoned and there's another civil war going on. Maybe I should have gone with the other guy...

This game was so epic. I'm probably gonna start a new game after my final exams. I was mostly good in this run so for the next one I'll try to be a complete jerk. I was a warrior (berserker + templar) and will probably try to be a blood mage in my next game.

It's epic. 'Nuff said.

I need to buy it, heard alot of good about it

My only complaint is that the main character didn't have a voice other than battle grunts and the lines they say when you choose the voice tone. Other than that, probably the best rpg I've played

Kerrigan's queens might need to look more like the brood mother.

I don't know, I prefer it that way. It feels more personal imo.

The place where I think they should improve the most is the enemy ai. They can be so dumb sometimes, especially in the final quest. There were hordes of darkspawns and none were charging at me. They were just standing there at the door like idiots so I just sniped them with my bow and magic.

I would also have liked more different hairstyles in the character editor. Only a few were there and they got repeated a lot during the game. They could have made minimum more unique trait for main characters (at least they had a few ones, not like in oblivion...).

In all honesty though, those are really minor problems and certainly didn't stop me from enjoying the game.

Agreed. It is a minor complaint, Bioware just spoiled me from Mass Effect, lol. I concur about the AI, a few adjustment are needed to improve it

70 hours later! I have beaten the game, its pretty freaking good.

Played it on hard, and I had some bugs ( even some pretty critical ones) but I troubleshooted my way out of them( there was really only one bug that was annoying)


I can't wait for the sequel to this game, i'm looking forward to DLC but DLC wont bring the storytelling and the interaction of a expansion! Can't wait to explore the other continents of this world in the sure to follow sequels.

Wardens Keep DLC - Its worth it, you get some pretty good stuff there (make sure you find the sword before you leave)
Blood Dragon Armor DLC - It was free for me, and its pretty good and can carry a warrior-like char threw the entire game wearing it so beware of that, as I didnt like not getting upgrades for awhile on my main char.
Stone Watcher( or w/e) - GET THIS DLC, it comes with like every purchase and it is worth it! and fun!

The community is already working on some pretty epic projects too, cant wait to play these while I wait for mass Effect 2/dlc/sequels. My only regret here is the the map creator is kinda annoying and more complex than it needs to be so only the most hardcore people will complete there maps.

This certainly has quelled my thirst for a RPG, and will last me till mass effect and ff13!

Doing my second playthrew on nightmare, but going to take my time this time around.

Just some random thoughts, after watching some new mass effect 2 videos, am I the only one that feels like its just going to be more of the same...not having a voice on your main char in dragon age just worked for me, and after seeing some of the videos of ME2 I feel like theres alot of emotion being shown but its like short burst that dosn't flow that well...so bassicaly I think i'll like dragon age more, but who cares I will play mass effect 2 and love it as well T_T.

Playing as a rogue this time around, traps and bombs await!


If your still on the fence about this game, get it! and make sure you buy it on the PC

Wow you played on hard? I don't know if it's just me but that game is freaking hard even on normal. I had to play on easy (which felt like the actual normal setting) and I'm a pretty hardcore gamer. I guess that's mostly because I didn't bother pausing the game on every fight to give orders.

I was thinking of buying this game... maybe, after reading all of this... I just might.
