Reviews: Dragon Age: Origins Video Review

Great review, thanks Dave.

Sweet review Dave!

Awesome review. Definitely gonna check this out on the PC.

I really enjoy Dave's take on games. I'm glad he took this review on, because he's a great addition to the front-end of the site, as much as he is with his behind-scenes work.

No beard Dave is awesome

Excellent review!

holy shit its a dave video review!!! awesome

whoa, wtf, dave looks like a boy.

"Dave, grow your beard back dude. "

Yeah Dave! Get Some!

This game looks decent.. But I have stayed away from RPG's since Lost Odyssey (which sucked IMO).  Plus I am just leaning towards buying MW2.. I don't want to buy  games almost back to back of eachother..  The game seems deep and customization very appealing.. I don't know if investing 50 hours into it is very enticing. 
Waiting a few months for the price to drop is the most logical choice i think.

What do I do with my hands? 
 
But seriously Dave, great review!

fuck yea dave!

Great review.

Awesome game !

Ahhh! Dave with out facial hair!!!
Great review!

great review dave

This could be awesome as an endurance run. Long enough to be a huge task, and great enough to not bore you...

Standard edition is 105 USD here in Mexico... and they wonder why all the piracy...

hey dave, look in your ear, its me, your ear hair.

I dream for a PC that can play games like this. But until that day comes, I guess I'll grab this on 360 or PS3. I just don't know which system to get it on :S
 
anyway, awesome video review Dave. This game looks really interesting. I'm off to read the review just as soon as I'm done typing!

sooo long but awesome review

Looks great, and friends have said it's good. CAn't decide between this, L4D2, or Modern Warfare 2.
HMM.

Excellent review Dave.

you know what would have been nice? (tho difficult, maybe) If the PS3 version could sport the PC interface as a option. The system does support a mouse and keyboard =)

Way to go Snider! Sell it to me!!

looks great, copied the "gambits" system from FFXII pretty much exactly

More Dave!

Awesome review. I like Dave a lot. He's the person I've gravitated towards the most since I started coming here.

Dave review!
Can't wait to pick this up now that I'm getting a new PC.
I held out on buying the console version for so long, but it was worth it :D

Just got this game and I LOVE it!

Dragon Age Origins and it's expansion Awakenings, are two of the best and most challenging RPG'S I've ever played.  The stories in both games are great, the characters are memorable (especially Morrigan) and the combat is fun, and hard at the same time.  The final fight in Origins where I had to fight a gigantic dragon called "The Archdemon" was brutally tough, and the first time I played the game, I managed to complete it with only two characters who weren't knocked out.  Myself and Morrigan.    
 
I personally feel that the best RPG I've ever played is Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic.   Mass Effect 1 and 2, Dragon Age Origins, Awakening, and Knights of The old Republic 2, are all wonderful games, and some of my favorites.  That's just my personal opinion, of course.

i cant wait to dig my teeth into this one....

he goes on about nostalgia nostalgia nostalgia... but this is about a thousand times better than any of those baldurs gate games in terms of story and gameplay.. this is an evolution and an amazing game.. its not just a nostalgia fix.

" It's good to see that there is some advertising on GB, and not just in particular for this game. As long as it doesn't get to presumptuous, i'm okay with it. "

i Got this on ps3 and still only played about 2 to 3 hours worth . I am an absolute rpg noob . What i gather from this is that i still have a lot to learn about this game . But i am slowly starting to see the fun in rpg games . But i still have a hard time getting through them .

@lunalicrichard: this game wouldnt be a good place to start IMO I would try something a bit more like fallout 3 or Knights of the Old Republic if you got a PC. Both of those games are really fun, easy to get into, and easy to play. Great review, but this game is not my cup of tea. Seems more like the witcher and less like KOTOR. This may be a plus for some, but I hate playing games that are punishing to play and take a large amount of time just to understand how the game works...(im looking at you dark souls)

Now that inquisition is out I gotta go back to the roots.

It’s 2021 baby, let’s get wild

what a coincidence, I was just getting that itch lately to replay Dragon Age and then this pops up on the "This day in GB History feed"
