Dragon Age™: Origins - Ultimate Edition

Remember playing it the day it came out. Nostalgia! I will probably install this game on my modern pc and playthrough it once again!

This was an interesting offering when I first played it because it took a look at the fantasy genre and then said, "What can we do that's fresh?" The dwarves and elves, for example, are portrayed very differently in this game than they are in most others. I found that very refreshing. And even though the majority of the game plays out the same, the different origins are just top notch. I can't really pick a favorite---but if you haven't played the two Dwarf origins, then definitely do that. So very good. Plus, the mod community for this game is quite active over on Nexus. Good stuff.

crashes too much to be playable

Golden age of bioware before they lost all their decent writers/devs and replaced them with DEI hires and activists.

Very good cRPG. 1. Fallowing good Bioware plot with visiting 4 locations and then finishing. Original with 6 different backgrounds. Each location have fair share of sidequest. 2. Have real time (active pause) combat in tactical way (no action combat). Each character have multiple powers, and it is supporter with script mode, so it is easy to use. Some combat are challenging. 3. Character models are quite good (considering time). Also skill effects are bloody, sometimes with cool finishers, magic is also impresive in this one. 4. Locations often have own style, and have some nice points of interest, however in comparison to modern games are small, a bit empty, and more have more style than details. However small maps also means less MMO quests, and less traveling. 5. It is easy to love characters in this one, time passes but not many games suprased in when it comes to companions. Generally it is great game. Great that GOG obtained that. If you like Pillars of Eternity you will probably like this. But if you care about action gameplay of Witcher or Mass Effect it may feel less dynamic. Graphic is last gen. But: It has better face animation than Andromeda!
