Dragon Age

[Nidhoggur]

I'd like to say this game is awesome if you've ever enjoyed Baldur's Gate

Random quest, one of those kill/don't kill sombody deals during it, killed em, turned it in and was done. Loaded a save before, didn't kill, which led to

FIVE MORE FUCKING HOURS OF AWESOME ON THE SAME QUEST

You know games that say they have 'choices'? This is the first actual game with them. None of that 'are you a dick y/n' garbage in every other 'choice' game.

Also it takes a little thinking here and there, otherwise enemies rape you.

And you can literally spend forever talking to random people/party members about random stuff. Everything seems to have background to it, it's insane.

neat

[Forcnasty]

how pixelated are the faces?

[Attila]

Well depends on your settings I'm sure. My comp has no problems running it at max setting and I would say that the faces are comparable to Mass Effect, maybe a little worse but still really good.

[Escue]

i am very interested. it's one player i assume?

[Dragooner]

yeah, its enjoyable so far

[Escue]

the question is, will it interfere with modern warfare 2, and when does left for dead 2 come out?

[Attila]

So I finally got enough time to actually sit down and play this game today. All I'd done so far was all of the Origin stories to see which character I wanted to play. Getting to the Orzamar though kept causing my computer to crash. After about 4 hours of fucking around with my comp I figured out that it was my video card.

I have an ATI 4870 that I had overclocked and apparently that was a bad thing. After fiddling around with the settings I finally found out that underclocking the card by about 10% let me play through the area. No clue why I had to do this but it's working now. Figured I'd post it here if anyone else was having the same problem.

My PC runs this just fine, only some slight stutter in a particular temple area of the game.

This looks pretty cool, I'll have to give it a try. I've been playing Torchlight too recently and it's a nice distraction from the oppression of Aion.

[Forcnasty]

you're still playing aion blade?

I quit after less than a week, lol.

[Bladerain]

yeah.. I haven't logged in for weeks. I got to level 43 and couldn't convince myself to grind farther. Koreans suck at making modern games.

Dragon Age is pretty cool. I hate micro-managing the group though and every time a fight starts it seems it's always against a much larger group. If they have a mage, or worse a blood mage... you're pretty much fucked. Every time I try to make a better tactics macro it seems to backfire too.
