I just bought a copy of Dragon Age: Origins on sale from GOG. What am I in for?
>>344991287
Fantastic waifus and bants.
>EA game
>on GOG
Bullshit
The last great Bioware RPG.
Something competent but boring
>>344991425
Oh wow, it's actually real.
>>344991425
They just unveiled three EA titles there. Dragon Age: Origins, Dead Space and SimCity 3000.
too much melodrama, brown, and boring enemies, but some fun characters and overall a pretty good game
>>344991506
Basically this
Don't play awakening it's trash and has too many elements DA2 had that made it shit
Half of the introductions are good
The other half is boring or shit
Tutorial is okayish and nothing extraordinary
First hours after that are pretty fun
Dwarftown is good
The tunnels below Dwarftown are long and boring as fuck
After that it gets better again.
Alister is a faggot.
Morg is best girl but that isn't saying much.
The DLC quests are pretty decent.
The DLC addons are pretty meh.
Overall its enjoyable but a bit too long.
It's also the last true Bioware game. Everything after that was either complete shit or hardly a game.
I'm thinking Dalish Elf for my first playthrough.
Which makes a better archer, Rogues or Warriors?
>>344991986
Rogues, easily.
Stack that Song of Courage for mad crits.
>Dalish elf
Good taste.
>>344991986
Dalish Elf as a class are interesting but the introduction part in the worst.
Not like City Elf is any better tho.
>>344992293
>Not like City Elf is any better tho.
>he didn't have funcutting his way out of the arl of denerim's place and then gutting Vaugan like a dog
Bet you like the dwarf origins
>>344992376
>Bet you like the dwarf origins
Royal. Yes.
Poorfag Dwarf? No.
>>344992376
City Elf is great, that anon is wrong, but Dwarf Noble is easily the best in the game.
>>344992293
City Elf's origins were pretty shocking the first time through. I really didn't expect my fiance and cousin to get grabbed up on my wedding day and gangraped.
That was a bit darker than I thought Bioware had in them.

>>344992450
Royal's alright, but I wouldn't say I loved it. Personal taste?City Elf > Human Noble > Dwarf Noble > Dalish Elf > Mage > Dwarf Commoner
>>344992569
What makes you think so? I loved all the interactions walking around Orzammar, and playing politics was fun, but on the other handbeing railroaded so hard left a bad taste in my mouth
Yes, I'm aware that's the point. I just didn't enjoy the origin as much as others because of it.
Sound...the retreat.
Just stay away from Morrigan, she's canonically my wife.
>>344991287
Play as a mage, it's the most fun class in the game.
>>344992632
>>344992376
The massacre is indeed pretty interesting and its good that you revisiting the place has a effect later.
This is why Dalish Elf is the worst origin. You just leave the place and after that nothing matters.
This is also the reason why Royal Dwarf Origin is one of the best if not the best origin story. What you do has a big effect on the maingame.
Besides that i like human noble for the same reasons but such revenge stories are kinda generic.
Alright, done fucking with my Elf's creation. Do you people use the default name, joke name, self-insert name or what?I always take the default name.

>>344993116
Reminder that Bhelen was the best choice.
>>344992632
Yeah, that catharsis when you've cut your way to Vaughan through the viscera of everyone else in the castle is fucking great, though.
>he didn't play a qt elf grill
>>344992851
>This is why Dalish Elf is the worst origin. You just leave the place and after that nothing matters
The extra dialogue you get during the game is fucking great, though.
>This is also the reason why Royal Dwarf Origin is one of the best if not the best origin story. What you do has a big effect on the maingame.
That I agree with you about, but it still doesn't make me like the origin itself any better.Supporting Bhelen all the way and then crowning Harrowmont is funny as fuck, though.
>>344992754
Yeah City Elf is the best origin story
>>344991986
>elf
Just go Human Noble Rogue. Best fun you'll ever have.
>>344993170
>he didn't play a qt elf grill
Playing a twink Elf boi who gets NTR'd by a BNC (big noble cock) is my fetish though.
>>344991287
It's a solid RPG. The different starting zones for everyone are pretty solid, the and I was able to play it a few times through and have different enough experiences that I didn't feel like it was the same exact character albeit with marginally different aesthetics.
That said, the smaller chapters are WAY more interesting than the whole story. The combat can get a bit repetitive, and most of the armor and weapons look very bland, but there's some decent mods out there to liven things up:
http://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/?
>>344992754
The only three Origins that got me interesting in actually attempting to roleplay where Human Noble, Dwarf Noble, and City Elf. Dwarf and Human are the biggest, though. They give you a big reason to care about your character's situation and also roll it into the main plot. The City Elf does too, but much later as it doesn't reappear until you're doing the Landsmeet. I might just be a bit biased towards Dwarf over Human because my favorite playthrough was a Dwarf Noble.Dwarf Noble > Human Noble > City Elf > Mage > Dwarf Commoner > Dalish Elf
>>344993001
>want to become king

I never became king in DA:O and i played that game like 5 times - With 3 of those being human noble.

Get a respec mod or all of your party members get worse the later you recruit them.
>>344992835
>Play as a mage, it's the most fun class in the game.
Objectively wrong, for the fact that most spells can't be cast with a weapon drawn if nothing else.
>>344992912
>Do you people use the default name, joke name, self-insert name or what?Default names for males, I have a bunch of female names I love so I pick one of those

Nope,Prince-Consort. Only a femCousland can be Queen.Another reason not to pick Anora, the bitch.

I get a bit autistic with names (in an RPG, not specifically this one). I actually look some up and find one that best represents my idea for the character.

Friendly reminder. LOGHAIN, did nothing wrong.
>>344993520
Didn't they settle this back when Inquisition rolled out since half the time they say King and the other half it's Prince Consort? I thought it was solidly King now.

He did.
He wasn't wrong about the king being a complete fucking retard unable to achieve anything but just abandoning him and getting all those men killed wasn't a product of that - It was him wanting to avoid meeting his old Orlais enemies as allies.

Eh, it depends.
Best Choice: Dwarven Royal supporting Bhelen all the way until the very end when you crown Harrowmont
Good Choice: Non-Dwarven Royal supporting Bhelen / Dwarven Royal supporting Harrowmont
Bad Choice: Non-Dwarven Royal supporting Harrowmont / Dwarven Royal supporting Bhelen
Is sim city 3k good? I want to try a city builder game but I don't have the specs for skylines. Which one is the best?
>>344992809
I should have made him suck my blighted dick.
>>344991986
I would recommend elven mage, personally. Blood Mage/Arcane Warrior becomes an unstoppable god of war. Other classes can't compete. I can recommend spells if you're interested, otherwise I would say this:
Go Elven OR Dwarvish rogue for a rational character, or Human Noble warrior for an irrational (read: ruthless) character. Only make a warrior if you want to be evil, because their best specialization (Reaver) can only be achieved through the literal most immoral choice in the game.
>>344993825
Yeah, not as fun as with Leliana, but she has a terrific line if you run into him in II
>tfw can't have an IsabelaxLelianaxwarden threesome without hardening her
>>344993762
>Didn't they settle this back when Inquisition rolled out
Probably, the only Wardens I bothered playing in Inquisitionwere banging Leliana or Morriganthough, so I never noticed.
In Origins it's strictly Prince-Consort, though.Guess the Warden finally got on top of Anora in the end, eh?
>>344993752
**literally everything wrong
>>344993382
That's completely fair, since I'm biased towards my two favourite origins (City and Dalish Elf) too. I do love the added complexity the Nobles add to the game, from people you meet who know your family (either family) to the extra layers of interactions, but I still felt the same with a City Elf - playing as agirlwho just wanted to troll shems was fucking nice, and the Alienage quest later in the gameand during the siege of Denerimis terrific if you're a City Elf.Plus, since I romanced Leliana, I felt like her and the Warden were even more suited to each other after I played Leliana's Song
>>344993520
Arcane Warrior + Rock Armor + Haste + Spell Shield + Death Siphon + Telekinetic Weapons + Miasma + Death Magic = Greatest tank in the game at level 16, and gameplay generally allows the player to be 18-22 by the end before Awakening. There is literally no reason to play Warrior when Mages have access to Arcane Warrior, especially since Mages can get Shapeshifter as a second specialization for +2 CON and +1 Armor.
>>344994238
>Which one is the best?
Super Nintendo version.
install the "skip mage tower" mod for your own good.
Something that's decent, but nothing special. It's mainly remembered because it was made by Bioware before they completely went to shit. With that said, I had fun playing the only worthwhile origin in the game.
This made me very uncomfortable. These are dark memories
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAvDgONv81w
>>344994332
I chose genesis that gen tho...
>>344994168
>Best Choice:
Exquisite taste, my friend.
>>344994265
>because their best specialization (Reaver) can only be achieved through the literal most immoral choice in the game.
Not to mention stupidest. Who even plays Warriors? It's Rogues for a partician, and Mages if you want a lark.
>>344994296
The fun of Blood Wound and Mana Clash aside, I prefer playing as a Rogue (ranged or melee, but usually melee)but that's just personal preference because I don't like having to stack buffs or cast all the time
>>344994281
>In Origins it's strictly Prince-Consort, though.
When the Cousland is asked to settle the dispute and choose who will rule Ferelden, two options (in different outcomes) both state that the Cousland will rule along side Anora, NOT that Anora would be the sole monarch and that the Cousland would simply marry her. The choices were for joint rule. That is how they were worded. Also, the Landsmeet agreed to whatever the Cousland chose, which means he is the full fledged king by Ferelden law and Dragon Age lore.
Anora can privately tell him he has to be her Prince Consort all she likes, but in the eyes of the Kingdom and all their vassals, he's King.
Besides, he's from the Cousland Teyrns, the second in line to the throne anyhow. She's a farmer's daughter.
>>344991287
Ultimate Edition doesn't actually have some of the DLCI think, plus there's all this limited-time only shit. Just go to the links the wiki provides and install them. I think A Tale From Orzammar isn't included
>>344993398
I married Alister.
I wasn't gonna pass up the chance of becoming a fucking Queen.
A Queen, anon!
>>344994640
Why be a queen..when you can be a queen bitch?
>>344994640
>>344994238
3k and Simcity 4 are both good. Skylines is worse than both, so you're not missing out too much if you can't play it.
>>344994573
Oh, sorry, I wasn't implying that you don't get the ability to rule (especially because the Epilogue states you have as much or more power than Anora, which could very well mean a power struggle), just that I think she's a bitch for insisting she doesn't want you to be King when you're the one who put her there in the first place.Setting her up to marry Alistair for her support at the Landsmeet, persuasion included, then letting him kill Loghain in the duel and fucking her off is just too sweet
>>344994640
>I married Alister.
>I wasn't gonna pass up the chance of becoming a fucking Queen.
>A Queen, anon!
Only acceptable if you're actually romancing Hardened Leliana.
I suspect Alistair had a crush on Morrigan.

Can you recommend some shields?
Anyone ever romance Leliana and Morrigan simultaneously? Their catty party banter is top tier.
>Morrigan: The way you look at him so intently, so hungrily... one would think you have never seen a man before.
>Leliana: Where I look is not your concern.
>Morrigan: True enough. There is no way I can deny you this... but why would he choose you, when he could have me?
>Leliana: You're confident for a woman raised in a swamp, far from anything remotely resembling civilization.
>Morrigan: And maybe that is my appeal? A woman like you, why, he could find in any city in Thedas. You think you are cultured? Worldly?
>Morrigan: Powdered, perfumed, you ooze elegance, but what man wants a woman who lies limp beneath him, frozen in place by the thought that she might ruin her hair?
>Leliana: So you're saying you're wild and uninhibited? I suppose he must like your shrieking, you sound like a genlock being murdered—a sweet, sweet sound to a Grey Warden.
>Leliana: You should try a little harder next time he takes you. I don't think they heard you in the Anderfels.
>Morrigan: Tsk, tsk, Leliana. Watch your jealousy, or you'll give yourself wrinkles.
>Leliana: Get away from me, or I shall have to take drastic measures.
>Morrigan: Resorting to violence. And here I thought you were civilized.

If you pick dwarf noble and play it emotionally rather than logically you will permanently fuck up the entire dwarven kingdom.Picking Bhelen is the best decision, Harrowmont will only result in social stagnation, revolution, and death.

>Morrigan: You mock me, but when he is in your arms, in your bed, telling you he loves you, know that there will be moments when he is thinking of me.
>Leliana: Andraste forgive me, but you, Morrigan, are a bitch. A cruel, cruel bitch, and you will get your comeuppance.

Because that's pretty funny.

This type of banter was in DA2 at least.
Not sure about DAI, i don't even remember much of a party banter in that piece of a shit game.

>Aw man, does Bioware even do stuff like this anymore, where depending which and how much a characters likes you starts otherwise hidden banter?
I'm not sure if it counts as 'anymore', but the bants are the best thing aboutDAIIand they include similar variations.
>>344995292
I played emotionally for most of the game but usedthe Leliana romanceto calm him (with him having a similar balancing effect on her), and he eventually decided to leave the kingdom in the proper hands. Having his bastard kid taken care of didn't hurt.

>>344995271
>he actually relied on the gifts

>>344995417
My favorite was how the game sometimes allowed you to be edgy while still doing the "right" thing.
Like when that slaver allows you to make a counter offer, and you can give the counter offer of killing him slowly.
you can cuck a young elf, tell him about it and he will then kill himself
the games edginess felt like a breath of fresh air, playing as an elven mage edgelord was great
>>344991415
The only good thing that came out from DAI is a confirmation that she truly loves Warden.
are mages (magic spells) fun in this game?
Reminder that killing Connor is the only acceptable option. Sure, let's just take this days long journey to a place that might not be able to help up and just let this demon that has been killing everyone remain free.

There's a lot of cool shit you can do with them, especially in comparison to other classes. Their crowd control like Mass Paralysis trivializes a lot of encounters though.
If you like huge AoE spells the ones you get later in the game like the fireball and storm spells they are the most fun abilities in the game, provded you plan around using them and you're not a pussy who turns friendly fire off.

Even if you finished the quest and sided with the Mages, it'd still take time to get back to them, have them get all their equipment ready, and get back. Leaving the demon alive long enough to even have the discussion that leads to this choice is a ridiculous notion already.
I really enjoyed this but never played any of the others, I know a decent bit about Inquisition's story though.
Are either of them worth getting and playing?

>>344997570
2 has some good ideas, but the execution is absolute, irredeemable trash. Inquisition is just boring.
>>344996452
>>344996827
My man, mages are THE most fun you can have. They literally have their own mechanic called "Spell Combinations" that occur whenever 2-3 spells the have amplifying or dampening effects are on the battlefield at the same time. For instance, coating someone in oil and then setting them on fire makes the flame spell much more effective. If this happens to your party, however, you can cast blizzard on your own teammates to extinguish the flames.
Backstabbing is fun, but can it turn darkspawn into blood pudding via a magical time bomb? I think not.
>>344997079

>>344997570
Skip 2 unless you like Bioware's idea of humor because the gameplay is utter trash.
Inquisition is okay but not worth full price. If you're a person that likes doing side quests, most of them are pointless busywork.
>>344998043
Zevran is pretty fucking sexy, but really this is one of those games where one of the romance options is clearly, clearly intended to be canon, and it is not Zevran.For bro-Wardens the canon romance is pretty clearly meant to be Morriagn and for grill-Warden's it's Alistair.
>>344997008
Too bad it's useless against everything that isn't a Brood Mother.
>>344998119
I don't have a problem with sidequests as long as they actually interest me.
Mass Effect 2 is basically 25 hours of sidequests but they were centered on your crew and interesting enough so I was fine with less emphasis on the main story.

play a mage in origins, get heal and fireball fast as they are useful and fun. Get jb3 texture pack to fix the dull low grade environment textures, auto-loot and 4gb memory patcher, there are also companion mods if you want them to look prettier

How come Bioware puts gay romance options in their games but it's never a qt femboy or a girly twink? Zevran might be as close as it gets too. Just not close enough. I'd rather be dwarf dicking Morrigan than this douche with his shitty Mike Tyson face tattoo. If Bioware really gave a shit about being 'inclusive', then they'd be pandering to trap fapping degenerates like myself too.
Pic related. I don't want to ride the fucking bull either. Jesus Christ Bioware, how gay do you think I am?
>>344998495
>>344991287
Mage is literally the most overpowered class. It's also a better warrior than a warrior, and has more direct consequences on the story than any other. You could still be a rogue though if you want to try some early lockpicking. Not worth it imo.
>>344991287
Overrated. 7/10.
>>344992941

I imagine the Bull as a masculine powerbottom so it hits all my fetishes. I'd love to see a cute trap too although I'm happy as long as we don't get any more of those Mexican Papi abominations.
>>344998230
You're right, but having Morrigan as a fuckbuddy and fucking her on the side to get that kid out while romancing Zevran is my favourite way to go.

If you have friendly fire on it will kill your team, the whole spell is just overkill.

>>344995417
During the arl of redcliffe quest everyone telling you about how they are being butchered every night and having the option to say "why the fuck are you telling me all this do you expect me to die with you" was just too fucking good. It gets even better with Sten in your party to tell them to nut the fuck up a fight for their own life instead of waiting for someone else to.
>>344996827
You can't have enough warning about Orzammar's tunnels. It's gonna be long and boring. Hopefully, the combat can keep you playing. I took a long break after finishing that part and I might continue soon.
>>344999019Your desire?
>>344999228
Sten always had mad bants but it was ridiculous on my first playthrough where I tried to be a decent person since I would dissaprove a load of shit that I did, culminated with him outright fucking attacking me saying he was displeased with my leadership.
Really don't understand why they didn't have approval in games like Mass Effect, I thought it was a neat feature.
>>344999648
sten attacked me for making a joke, fuck that guy
>>344991598
I got all of these for free.
>>344991986
Always go human noble first
I was thinking of playing through 2 and 3, should I replay DAO seeing as I never touched Awakening?
>>344991287
Fun

Dear lord, the irony.
>>344991506
This. It's the last game before Bioware was consume by EA. I'm replaying it right now and it's shocking how different it is from Inquisition.
>>344991615
Awakening was good.
Daily reminder that Iron Bull is a Hissrad and you shouldn't trust anything he says.
Human Noble > Dwarf Noble > City Elf > Mage > Castless Dwarf > dirt > Dalish Elf
Prove me wrong.You literally cannot.

>>345000562
I've played neither DAII nor Cisquiaition. The only point of reference I have for the Qunari is Sten's dialogue in DA:O. What are Hissads and Bas?
>>345000424
>Dalish elf is the lowest

No

Bas is basically anyone outside of the Qun, hisrad is liar.

You know there's a polygamy mod, right?Besides, everyone knows Morrigan a best.

I bet you go around reading other peoples' fanfiction too.
>>345000802
He's a spy, his "name" in the Qun language means liar.
I don't get how people complaint about him retconning the Qunari, when he himself admits that most of what he do wouldn't be accepted.
>>345001552

Could you make it any more obvious that you've never actually played the game and just hate it because tumblr likes it?
I loved the extra RP shit you could do with some of the origins like romancing your bodyguard as female noble dwarf and then returning to him later in the game and he becomes overcome with emotion to see you again.
Then you have female city elf being able to find the wedding ring of your would be husband that he planned to give to you before trying to save you and getting killed.
>>345001727
>tfw they didn't just replace wynne with a romancable twinky healslut femboy
Just fucking kill me.
>>345001981
>Sometimes
human noble is the best imo
creates great characterization as you start out seeking revenge for your murdered family then evolving into a greater cause.
>>345002120
I can't play anything else beside human or dwarf noble desu
>>345001870
You did good.
Fuck that roastie slut.
>spare Loghain
>Alistar mad as fuck
>fight Archdemon
>Loghain is ready to make sacrafice

Literally the best ending.
Also why is killing Archdemon so fucking satisfying? I played DA:O 3 times and always personally killed the fucker.Also fuck Morrigan's demon child
>>345002323
>>344992646
I have never crafted a single potion in the 3 different characters I created.
Creating potions is for scrubs and casuals.
Fuck it, I hate potion management and potion crafting in games, I hated everything surrounding elixirs and portions in bitcher games.
Loghain is worth sparing just to take him on the return to Ostagar quest and listen to him get chewed out by your other party members.
>>344998035
>zevrin approves
>>345001870
she doesn't want to share. being selfish is a typical behavior from morrigan. she's also pretty hypocritical.
>>345002413
>you are edgy for not liking the edgiest character in the game
i bought the steam version not long ago but the graphics were glitching out its ass and it would not stop crashing after i reach ozimmar.
thanks alot windows 10. may try fix it in the future but for now, i play something else.
>tfw only after watching the show did you realize Dragon Age Origins takes a lot from the Ice and Fire series
I wish they had kept at it instead of going full high fantasy by the third installment.
>>345002605
>tsundere memery: the waifu
>edgy
>>345001870
1. Morrigan doesn't like to share
2. Morrigan is tsundere as FUCK
its such a pity how the series have turned into. dragon age had some serious potential but they had to fuck it up. same with mass effect.
>>345001870
Morrigan does fall in love with you even though she doesn't want to. That's where her romance leads in the end.
>>345002361
>first playthrough go with human nobleman
>play like a LG Paladin, character build is pretty much the same

Fuck.
>>344996645
So? You don't have to give them a single cent.
You can pirate both Dragon Age 2 and Dragon Age: Inquisition.
>>345001870
That's not the worst thing.
>fuck that elf fuccboi
>he says himself it's nothing serious and you can have fun with other people
>romance someone else
>he gets mad
>>345003226
>>Alistair immediately beheads Loghain (didn't even know you could keep him alive until the second playthrough)
>>Alistair marries a pissed off Anora
Don't think this happened. Anora won't marry whoever kills her father. So if noble warden does it, she won't marry noble warden but would marry Allistair and vice versa. Afaik.
>>345002079
>city elf
best origin
>>345003424
Grey Wardens must have some crazy juice.
>>345003526
So apparently only EITHER Alistair or Loghain show up in Cisquisition based on which one was still a warden by the end of DA:O
My question is, who is the better character IN CISQUISITION?
waifu
>>345003936
I haven't had Alistair, but Loghain serving in the Orlesian wardens was poetic. He was also fully devoted to them which was nice.
I liked Loghain and hated Alistair. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one with this opinion.
>>344991287
A generic and forgettable game.
>>344991615
Awakening was pretty good.
>>344994019
Sigrun was one of the better waifus of the series. Too bad you couldn't romance her.
>>344991287
Starts off slow, picks up momentum after the second chapter. Companions are pretty good but some are kinda forgettable
Also don't kill the assassin, he's by far one of the most fun characters.
>>345004308
The companions in DAO are the best in the entire series. DAI and DA2 have shit companions except for Varric.
What is your favorite party, /v/?
Mage Warden, Oghren, top Lel and Shale master race here.
Awakening: Oghren, Sigrun and Howe Jr.
>>345004071
I liked both, just for different reasons. Alistair felt like a more traditional bromance with you learning how to be a Grey Warden from him, and your leadership skills and confidence rubbing off on him in kind. Loghain, by contrast, engaged the more cerebral part of why I might like someone. He reminded me of all the friends I've had who held opinions I heavily disagree with, but are intelligent people who I've bonded with by having friendly arguments.
>>344993752
He literally did everything wrong.
>abandoned his own troops
>left his king to die
>also let all the grey warden get wiped out
>retreated to Denirm
Left a giant dark spawn horde unchecked
>darkspawn murdered probably hundreds of thousands of his people
>all while he started a civil war for the crown
>had no plans at all to deal with what was clearly a blight
Logain was a goddamn retard.
>>345003526
Maybe I misremember and he locked her up. Either way, the bullet point was that I sacrificed my Cousland Warden when it turns out Awakening has a character that ties specifically into that backstory.
Dalish Elf > City Elf
Just so we know which one is superior.
>>345004610
Tank Warden, Sten, Leliana and Wynne. Alternate Leliana with Morrigan. Wynne isn't so fun, but her healing specialization is too good.
>>345004707
Both are shit though.
>>344993262
Human noble was the second most generic origin.
From best to worst
Dwarf noble
City elf (female)
Human noble
Dwarf commoner
Circle of magi
Dalish elf
Only 2 good origins were dwarf noble and city elf.
>>345004610
For gameplay? All-mage party every time just so that I can laugh at how ridiculously OP we are.
For bantz/dialogue? I ALWAYS arrange my RPG parties based on which characters are the most solid bros, which in this game usually meant Alistair, Sten, and Oghren.
>>345004707
All elves in DA universe are irredeemably shit. Doesn't matter where they come from.
>>345004610
Mage Warden, Oghren and Wynne and Zevran/Leliana.
>mfw Oghren starts hitting on Wynne
>>345004610
Mage warden, Morrigan, Alistair and Oghren.
I don't need no rogues.
>>344991287
Its a good game. Some people hate its guts because it wasnt Baldurs Gate, but if you arent expecting that, it will be a fun ride.
Last Biower game that I enjoyed, Mass Effect 2 already left a sour on my mouth.
We will never get a AAA rpg of that kind again, which really sucks (MAYBE Cyberpunk, but after CDRP went jews with their fucking cardgames, I doubt it).
PS: Dwarf Noble and City Elf are GOAT
>>345005136
>Oghren has more game than the Warden
Based fucking dorf.
>>345005136
Time to polish the old sword.
>>344991287
dated game that manage to look better that the last one on its franchise
>>345004610
Arcane Warrior Warden
Sten
Oghren
Zevran
Awakening:
Oghren
Sigrun
Verana
>>345004610
Noble Male Warrior, Morrigan, Leliana and typically Wynne for heals. Not real good banter though
>>345007249
I liked those comics.
>>345007249
>>345007617
Post more.
Does the GOG release of Dead Space fix the vsync issues and whatever else was wrong with it?
>>345000931
u wat faggot
>>345001660
Its disingenuous though. If he doesn't act nor think like a Qunari then what is the point to his character? might as well make him a black elf, a golem, or some special snowflake race.
If you played a Mage Warden, know that you were playing on Very Easy Casual Baby Mode.
>>345007853
I'm also interested in this.
>>345004610
>>345004610
You got everything right except mage warden and top lel
>>345008791
>not playing as the fuck everything that moves class
Its unforgivable what they did to it in cisquisition
>>345000015
If you want, I think Awakening was pretty decent.
Shame they ruined the most memorable party members from it in DAII.
>King Cailan: Ah, so you're from one of our Alienages. Tell me, how do things fare there?
>City Elf Warden: I killed an Arl's son for raping my friend.
>King Cailan: You... w-what?!
>>345007713
>>345010152
the classic, the best
Why is DA2 so superior compared to the other games in the series?
>tfw you earn the respect of Fenris
>tfw best bioware character
>>344991287
i sure love getting cucked by gog when every ea game they have has been free at some point on origin
>>345004610
Rogue Warden
Oghren/Loghain
Morrigan
Wynne
Mages are too good, unless I roll a mage it's hard to justify not bringing both Morrigan and Wynne.
>>344991986
Do whatever you want.
It's your game.
>>345011157
He's not even the best companion of DA2 desu senpai.
>>345011528
this is the least helpful thing anyone can ever say and you know it
>>345011769
I know.
