Dragon Age Origins - Awakenings

I looked through 5 pages and nothing on this gem, am I the only one counting the days? DAO is a classic in my opinion it is the game the lord of the rings should have been but oh so wasn't. Drama, war, romance, intrigue, sex, friendship and betrayal. Every thing you need for a good yarn mix that with good game play and you have your self a classic. So where are you all?

Meh, DAO was an attempt to recapture old glory. They made a quality game, but frankly, it was just a very solid game - nothing *really* memorable. For all the time Bioware spent on DAO, it should have been a lot better... You know, about as good as Mass Effect 2 was.Boomshaffted

I'm still undecided. I'm at Orzamaar on my second playthrough of DAO, and this questline is going on way too long, i'm so sick of fighting ****. I hope Awakenings does not have parts that drag.

I'm still undecided. AAllxxjjnn

maybe to you and few other people. played both demos and didn't really care for them.

Nope a friend who is a die hard DA fan and is anticipating it. Personally I am looking forward to it.skrat_01

I'm getting it, DAO ended on such a great note for me, I feel like starting a fresh round right when I'm done my current term. And I'm getting awakening for sure.

I'm undecided. I found Dragon Age rather unimpressive, so while I don't ever skip on Bioware games, I think I might make an exception for future DA games. But hey, if this expansion is substantially better (like, say, Mask of the Betrayer) then I'll check it out.Planeforger

What didn't you like?

Oh. I've been counting the days. It's just I'm torn apart about what to play first March 16th ;.;

I'll be getting this game. I should really finish the first one though. I like DA:O, but for some reason I just keep putting if off in favor of other games. I'll try my best to finish at least one playthrough before getting Awakenings though.

What didn't you like?

The setting, the story, the dialogue, the pacing, the random difficulty spikes, the tiny world, the bland artsty|e, the lack of character options, the way the combat worked...etc.

In short, I thought it was quite boring, but some of the characters were interesting. :P
If they made an expansion pack with an awesome setting and story, I'd be a lot more interested.

Didn't think I'd like it but now I am totally into this game. But I'll probably pick Awakenings up after I'm through with God of War.

It makes me laugh, in part because I find that his opinion is validated, so no. Keep feeding him XD. Wth is so wrong with his views anyway? His passionate about his opinions(when it concerns mass effect anyway), I don't see anything wrong with that.

didnt you know?...in SW,any person that is critical at all against any Overrated/Overhyped Mainstream Game...then they're obviously a troll.

Already pre-ordered, only for 10 €. I can't wait. More Dragon Age. I played original game through with every Origins.

Mass Effect better than DA:O?

:lol:

Dragon Age: Origins was one of my favorite games this gen so I am definitely getting Awakening.

I am undecided, but if it is like The Shivering Isles, then it is a buy for sure.Mythomniac

DA:O is crap worst buy i ever made still dont know how people can play this game with all the stupid moral choices

If it was a game that naturally doesn't fit your taste, why buy it?

I'm skeptical anytime BioWare releases anything that isn't technically a full game. Their post-launch day DLC is terrible and it definitely makes me question how well they can handle an expansion pack.

Yes, actually, and better than Dragon Age by quite a long shot.

At the very least, ME2 was a solid, consistently entertaining shooter; Dragon Age was mostly trash, with what good role playing content it had sitting buried under layer after layer of dull, incredibly protracted combat slogging (that makes up the vast majority of the game content), bad level design, a boring, tiny gameworld, and an awful story.

I'll take the former over the latter, any day of the week.
