Dragon Age: Origins

174 - Dragon Age: Origins

Year: 2009
Platform(s): PC / PlayStation 3 / Xbox 360
Designer(s): Mark Darrah
Developer: BioWare
Publisher: Electronic Arts

"As a pure RPG, Dragon Age is BioWare's finest work to date. Sure, the Mass Effect franchise may have it beat in terms of style, but Dragon Age's fascinating web of themes, characters, and lore makes it the clear winner when it comes to substance. Massive as it was massively fantastic, Dragon Age rewarded those who invested themselves in its world with an emotional attachment like none other. Tiny touches like characters casually conversing with each other during your adventures made the game's shockingly huge choices all the more difficult. Speaking of difficulty, the battle system was far from a cake walk, and the execution of a carefully planned strategy was met with a rush of satisfaction seldom matched by other RPGs. Dragon Age certainly made you work to squeeze out its tiniest morsels of enjoyment, but those were also its most delicious." -  Nathan Grayson, Maximum PC
