Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the beginning of the game. You have 6 different origins that affect your entire gameplay!

*Fun game, not so good graphics, complex inventory.

This is a fantasticly addicting game for people that like roleplaying games. The game gives you a variety of origin story options, all of which influence your interactions with various NPC's. This game has been so much fun that I haven't played my MMORPG for almost a month (and my friends have been similarly addicted).

killer game, easy to rotate through multiple characters with a button click, spell/abilities hotbuttons are nice, the level of detail in the game really pulls you into the story, good character creation, fun game all around. as good a game as mass effect but in a fantasy setting. would absolutely buy all over again.

It takes a little while to understand the fighting system and proper character development, but once you have, the game is very addicting. I haven't enjoyed an RPG this much since Fable 2.

I like the game, the role playing it's just like world of warcraft

GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

this is one of the best games that has come out this year so far....

I expected great graphics from an xbox 360 game . . . there ok.

I love this game and this year an expansion pack is coming.

I watched a few trailers on this game and it looked really cool so my wife got it for me for Christmas. I played about 4 hrs. and just couldn't get into this game. The story is to long, slow, and boring. Not much action and the graphics aren't that great. I was expecting something like Dark Siders which I am exchanging this game for. Needless to say I was very disappointed.

Baldur's Gate. Baldur's Gate II. Planescape Torment. Mass Effect. Bioware's best games. The days of awesome rpg gaming seem now to be FAR behind for Bioware. Where does one start on what went wrong with Dragon Age Origins? The dialogue is only a single grade above 2nd. The "deep, meaningful" story-telling is just mindless shock value. All the characters (though especially Sten and Zevran) consistently irritated this player. I am not sure about other gamers but the radial menu constantly caused the game to freeze. The side quests are about as interesting as watching sponge migrations. Missions in the main storyline have so much "filler material" in them that it often becomes forgettable what the mission was for in the first place! The game appears to have too many unfortunate similarities with Neverwinter Nights (graphics, menu setup, story "progression," etc). It took 5 or so years for Bioware to produce this...game?

In short: Don't buy this game it might be the worst game of 2009 In long: First thing I noticed about this game from the beginning is the complete lack of any high def textures. All the textures in this game are muddled and lack any quality. Knights of the Old Republic back on the original Xbox had a much higher quality to its presentation than the opening create a character did on Dragon Age. I played about 4 hours of this game hoping for it to get better but the combat is slow and borderline boring and the graphics are so shoddy and poor the Wii would have no problem running this. The game has frame shutters....from what?! I will not go into it for long but please rent this if you are at all interested in the game but do not buy it. Save your money for the next three great titles coming out.

If you like Guild Wars and Knights of the Old Republic then this game is for you. Otherwise it's LAME. The commercials made it look like the graphics would be amazing, but that's only the screen saver for the game. You never see those graphics again.

Combat is boring and pointless, no sprint, you die easily, your spells and powers are have hardly any effect on you enemy. I got conned into this awful $60 game because EA has great marketing. DO NOT GET. EVEN IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.

I dont know if anyone else had this problem but mine froze alot and this isnt a true RPG game you cant really go anywhere and the game focuses to much on party tactics rather than single character abilities you cant go crazy like in other rpg games and go on a killing rampage in my opinion if you like this game youd like oblivion way better
