Fantasy RPG as it should be

User Rating: 9.5 | Dragon Age: Origins (Collector's Edition) PC
By sylvaedawn | Review Date:
This was the first game I ever played and was addicted to I found myself being able to postpone playing it as I wanted not to be disturbed by anything and anybody, and focus on playing entirely. And was always looking forward to find myself being deeply immersed into the land of Ferelden.

The best things I like in this game:

1) story - complex, immersive, everchanging depending on your decisions, many twists
2) characters - nicely and believable made personalities, great voiceovers
3) music (my best ones are Lake Calenhad ambient music and Ostagar ambient music)

Things that dissapointed me a little:

1) game engine - though one of the best for PC RPG, it has some glitches I don't like - for example, sometimes, when I needed it most, I was unable to switch between izometric and 3D view, then, quite often, in 3D view I was unable to point and click my cursor for movement on some places though they were reachable, etc
2) some needless and pointless brutality at specific stages of the game (due to spoiler matters I won't describe them here)
3) bugs - I have 1.02a patch installed and yet there are still some unresolved bugs

For any fantasy RPG lover this is, in my opinion, one of the best choices (definitely for those who played and loved Baldur's Gate series).
