PostSubject: Dragon Age Origins Review   Thu Jul 29, 2010 11:45 am

THE STORY
the story is set in Ferelden,a fantasy land with all the middle century mystical creatures,its basically a lotr another dimension,but its not all that,the story is about the darkspawns (some orcs like creatures) the first humans drinked the blood and made some magic from the Maker (maker is their god) and they became the first darkspawns,savage beasts that eat human flesh and are more powerful than any human,the humans have a counter against the darkspawns called the grey wardens,they are humans that if they want to become grey wardens they have to drink sample of darkspawn blood but it may have some side effects and some of the people die,you play as a character that you create,he or she can be a dwarf,elf or a human and you can custom their classes and from where they are from,after your character becomes a grey warden,theres a big battle going on and the king of ferelden dies by being betrayed by his uncle and he is "left for dead" as people say and he dies but you and a another character named alistair survives and they become the only two remaining grey wardens but the uncle of the king blames the grey wardens for betraying the king and they are hunted by the uncle of the dead king,the game starts with your character trying to get help from the mages,the dalsih elves,the dwarfs and from the arl of redcliffe ( a king) but they all have problems and you have to solve for them before gaining their help,the quests are long and after you finish them,the final battle between the darkspawn and the united races is awesome,the darkspawns are controlled by a giant dragon named the "archdemon" who controls the darkspawn,to destroy the darkspawn,you need to kill the dragon and ferelden will be free.

the story is deep and amazing,bioware nails it once again by bringing amazing story and awesome characters

so for the story
9.5


THE GRAPHICS
the graphics are preety good,the enviroments are amazing but some characters look bad and it has some few graphical glitches but other than that the graphics are amazing,every location is unique and the way is presented is amazing,the characters animation may be stiff in the gameplay department but in the cutscenes and the gameplay its amazing and the facial expressions are amazing..

so for the graphics
9.0


THE GAMEPLAY
the gameplay is huge..the combat system is fun,it has a lot of options,upgrading your character,putting new clothes,new weapons,artifacts and all sorts of stuff,you have 3 classes:mage,rouge and warrior,the mage can heal and throw spells,the rouge can sneak and fights with smaller weapons but he or she is fast and the warrior weilds big weapons and fights with heavy armor and can inflict a lot of damage,the exploration ishuge,this game is 30 hour long (the story mode) and after that you have 120 more hours to just finish everything in the game,this game is huge and you goota have a lot of free time to beat this game,this game will eat your days off..

so for the gameplay
9.7



FUN FACTOR
the fun factor is perfect,you will have a blast playing through dragon age origins,this game is huge and its soo much fun,i prefer this over oblivion in my opinion and its the second best rpg ive played in my life,its a definite buy if you are a rpg fan or a middle century rpgs like oblivion and fable,this game is enjoyable in every way and some boss fights can be way to difficult but you can beat them if you use good strategy..

so for the fun factor
10.0


FINAL SCORE:DRAGON AGE ORIGINS GETS A...
9.6

bioware proves once more that they are the king of rpg games..

Exactly!
They look a scratch above what we saw last-gen. Hell, I'd say it barely looks better than games like Primal on ps2.



In fact Primal is probably a better game Razz
lol nah, DAO is awesome but dang it has some ugly graphics.
