23•Qwerty Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Has anyone playewd Dragon Age: Origins ? What's it comparable to ? I like RPGs, so it like Final Fantasy? Diablo ? Fable ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Bob Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 It isn't really like any RPG out there, at least that I know of (or can remember at the moment.) RPG is probably my favourite genre, but I didn't really like it, I know a lot of people that did like it though. I would recommend renting it or downloading it for PC before you buy it. I don't believe in renting. So there's no game you can compare it to? I really like RPGs too, so I want to pick this up, just looking for opinions first. Is it the traditional go on quest, up grade armor/weapons? Is it in the style of most games where defeat enemies, get experience and level up?

Captain Bob Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Well yeah, I thought you meant in gameplay You go on quests, kill enemies, get exp, items, level up, yeah. Now that I think about it, probably the the closest game to it gameplay wise is World of Warcraft, but single player Sweet, thanks fella. You get +2.

Captain Bob Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Well, I don't own the game. But from what I heard it's similar to Baldur's Gate which I doubt anyone of you have ever played. I've heard of that game, but don't remember ever playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Canuck Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 If you liked Knights of the Old Republic or Jade Empire by the same developers, you'd probably like it. Or, think Mass Effect but with turn-based Dungeons and Dragons inspired combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyNut30 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Yeah, I bought Dragon Age: Origins. I'm not very far into it, only level 6 I think, but it definitely has the classic appeal of an RPG that has been sorely missing from the 360 line up. Made by BioWare (Mass Effect, Star Wars games) you know you're getting a solid product. The musical score is surprisingly good, the graphics suffer a bit on the console, some clipping is prevalent and the edges of the models aren't very sharp. The strangest thing about it though is that if there's a cutscene after a fight, all your players will be soaked in blood, like head to toe. It's gruesome and awesome at the same time. I'd recommend buying it but then again I got it $30 off at Futureshop. Still waiting on FFXIII though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
