I finally was able to play DAO out of my system. I finally got to the point where I not only felt competent at the game, but felt I could very easily best any challenge it presented. I'm not recanting any of the things I held against that title, but if you want something for just a whole lot of playtime hours then you might as well stop putting it off and go get it. Either that or WOW.

Anyway, this leaves me in an odd place for this time of year. I'm left without any game I really want to play. Normally there are four or five titles that have just been released that I'm asking people to buy me for Christmas, if not running out and buying myself. This time... nothing. I'm waiting for Mass Effect 2 and Lost Planet 2. Seriously publishers dropped the ball this year, at least for me.
