It's a classic for a goddamned reason, a moment in time where the age old traditions of bioware RPG were put on display with better tech and budget than ever before. With a clever "road trip" layout that allows exploration while keeping the main plot always in sight, and a decently robust tactical combat gameplay that encourages positioning and light character building, along with multiple beginnings for different characters, DA origins its a time capsle to the days when we were all hyped to see a "Triple A RPG"
