Dragon Age II: Antagonist Lost
For readers who've never played through Dragon Age: Origins, I can summarize that game as being a wonderful romp through a dark fantasy world where your choices shape the epic story of a heroic main character vs. the fo... Read Full Review

Under the Flaws is a Fun Game
I'd like to begin by pointing out that I LOVED the first game. It reminded me of the type of RPG I used to like to curl up with as a kid. At the same time, I felt like part of this nostalgia involved archaic conventions ... Read Full Review

Dragon Age II's archaic, and all-around vanilla, experience doesn't do the series justice.

Dragon Age II fumbled in a lot of ways, but I thoroughly enjoyed my journey from start to finish.
You can tell that BioWare rushed this game. It was set in a single city, and just like in Mass Effect, they used a few basic in-door templates for basically the entire game. They also repeatedly used the three locations ... Read Full Review

Dragon Age 2 is a good game but is not nearly as impressive as Origins. But it is the Dragon Age i fell in love with.
Dragon Age 2 is not a story based game. Not entirely anyways. It focuses on your main characters life as you escape the blight from Ferelden to start a new life in Kirkwall. It has the same feel as Origins but there seem... Read Full Review

A superb game which you can pick up very cheap now!
The start of this game is like one of those movies, where it starts off boring and you feel like turning it off, but you just need to give it a chance and turns out to be quite good. I can see that this is not everyon... Read Full Review

Classic case of the sequel falling far short of its predecessor. Bioware misjudged why the first game was so popular.
The original Dragon Age did one thing really well that no other RPG has been able to do: it made me care about the characters and the storyline and take my focus off leveling, equipment, and a high score. It did this i... Read Full Review

Not an improvement from the first
I wrote a well thought out review of Dragon Age: Origins, I stand by it. That game was great, it had the feel of classic RPG's loved and missed by many like NWN. In fact some NWN fans highly recommend the game. ... Read Full Review

Why wasn't this game better, WHY!?!?! WHY!?!?!
When I look for Dragon based fun and excitement this generation, let me tell you, I go to Skyrim, but the Dragon Age series could have been a close second to that crown if it was not for its lackluster sequel. I rea... Read Full Review
