Dragon Age™: Origins - Ultimate Edition

Stands the test of time

If you're into story-rich, well-written, interactive gaming experiences, with complex characters and development, look no further. This game has infinite replay-ability. It's now 2023, and people are still playing it. That said, it was designed in 2009, and some bugs were never officially patched; so I don't recommend it without loads of mods and customization. These can be found (free) on Nexus Mods. I also recommend the 4GB patch and large address aware patches. They prevent crashing, particularly if you want high resolution (more contemporary) graphics, more custom options, and more realistic looking characters and textures. If you're ambitious and frisky there's also the DAToolset. Unlike a lot of other games, this one comes with a programs especially for modding enthusiasts. You can even create your own campaigns and share them with fellow gamers. As other reviewers have aptly stated, there are some tedious areas. Namely, anything to do with The Fade. Get the "Skip the Fade" mod if nothing else. You'll thank yourself for it.
