GameSector writes: Ferelden is a world inhabited by arls, kings, darkspawn, and grey wardens; each of which, have helped forge Dragon Age into 2009’s RPG of the Year. The release of Dragon Age 2 isn’t too far off now. With BioWare’s sequel to one of their most prized franchises so close to release, we figure it’s time for another retrospective review. Enter our review of Dragon Age: Origins and discover why it was named 2009’s RPG of the Year, and many others.
GF365: "If you’re a reader, this list of great games for avid readers is for you. Games are a form of art, and some have written literature in them."
Here are some great action role-playing video games to play while waiting for the highly anticipated Dragon’s Dogma 2.
Talented writers can build worlds that are as wondrous as real-life. Here are the best lore-rich video games for you to get immersed in.
How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.
narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games
Here's my retrospective:
-Terrible main campaign
-Great gameplay
-Poor class variety
-Poor race variety
-Poor weapon variety
-Poor armor variety
-Poor enemy variety
-Poor spell/ability variety
-Awful morality system (rude=evil, polite=good)
-Worst narrative structer in a game in 15+ years
-Horridly cliched, unispired setting
-really ugly textures
-Ugly animation
-Final boss was a retextured enemy
-Kingdom only had 3 towns
That's about all I can remember.
Thankfully, aside from still looking to have litle variety, DA2 is shaping up to be a much nicer game.
