QUOTE (ZakkWylde @ May 27 2010, 11:56 PM)  Great Game but I was annoyed that one of the biggest fun factor in an RPG - gathering better equipment - is bad in this game. You basicly wear the same armor and use the same swords from beginig to end... I thoroughly agree. I usually play mages on RPGs and so I did on Dragon Age. Now I wish I had played it with a warrior/rogue, at least they get some more variaty of weapons/armor. Graphics & story are superb. I think they could have done a better job with levelling system too. Mayeb I'm used to MMORPGs, where you can grind xp and farm cash & loot awesome stuff. For me gathering and improving weapons and armors to go kill even bigger monsters is what RPGs are about. That's where DragonAge failed big. Even then I put 60 hours on it, doing side quests and taking my time, but quit near the end because the loot dissapointed me so much. I even tried starting again as a warrior, but doi9ng the same missions over again already knowing what they were about killed the thrill, so I sold the game. Multip`layer would have made an awesome addition to Dragon Age. That and good loot. Well worth trying it though. Speaking of RPGs I'm getting Borderlands this evening, a friend recommended it to me and after checking online revies it's a shooting FPS/RPG that mixes diablo, fallout & even Mad Max aspects. eager to try it. I also started playing Red dead redemption last week, but multiplayer is broken (Rockstar are working on a path to fix it), and the single player got old really fast for my taste. Though it's a great game and will come back to oit as soon as they fix MP. -------------------- Guitars:

QUOTE (Joe @ May 28 2010, 11:11 PM) I would call the kind of game you're describing 'hack n' slash'. It's basically all about the loot and killing bigger and more epic monsters. Dungeon Siege is a pretty good example, definitely try that if you haven't. The thing you have to know when you get a Bioware game though, is that they don't really do hack and slash. They have always had the focus on telling a good story, which is their strength. The process for Bioware hiring a writer, I've heard, is more intense than most major news publications.  Yes, I love hack & slash Diablo style games are awesome. Wow was something similar, though on a different scale altogether. The best game I've ever played was an old MMORP called Asheron's Call. I'm sure I'll never experinence something so awesome ever again! But I also loved Bioware's Never Winter Nights. I finished the game & all expansions and even played online in custom worlds etc., plus the user made download content was excellent. They mixed story, loot & hack and slash perfectly in NWN for my taste. QUOTE (The Uncreator @ May 29 2010, 09:07 PM) Borderlands has some RPG aspects, but not too many. Its focus is run and gun gameplay, and they are not kidding when they say there are a lot of guns, there has to be a minimum of 600 billion individual guns. Either way its awesomely fun. I just started playing Borderlands and so far I love it, the definition in the back cover fits it perfectly, it's RPS (Rol playing shooter) hahaa, it's really something different from anything I've played before, very addictive. -------------------- Guitars:

QUOTE (Joe @ May 31 2010, 09:47 AM) Asheron's call was great Very fond memories of that game...Finally someone who played AC! That's exactly it, fond memories, I loved it. I really enjoyed the magic system on that game it was hard but so rewarding and worked great. And levelling wasn't a piece of cake like newer games. Building a powerful character needed to be well planned, and took lots of effort at low levels to actually work at high levels. Amazing game. -------------------- Guitars:

Yes it was so awesome. My final char was a battle mage, I loved running the Obsidian Plains killing Diamond Lord golems and baddies, and helping people retrieve their corpses & stuff. My first day playing was awesome with some guys around a camp fire talking about going hunting big stuff, they gave me some magic items and I headed a cave to kill some undead. Best game ever.
Oh, and going back on topic, I saw Dragon Age for 19,95 € at gamespot. For that price it's a steal!
