Still one of the few RPGs where every companion actually feels like they have their own agenda, not just quest markers with dialogue.

Dragon Age: Origins is a third-person role-playing game described as a spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights franchises. Players create their own character by customizing gender and appearance as well as choosing a race and class. Combat is in real time with the ability to pause at any moment: tactical options include an editor which allows the player to give the AI detailed instructions on how to behave in every possible situation. Although the main storyline is the same for every character created, the game features six unique prologues, two for each race. Dragon Age: Origins received critical acclaim upon release, with praise mostly directed at its story, setting, characters, music and combat system.

Mine felt exactly the same way (which is rare enough that I still bring it up whenever this comes up).

Every companion having an agenda is fair... but replay it now and the pathing during fights shows its age fast.

Il reste dans le top 60 depuis des années et ça ne bougera plus beaucoup je pense, les votes se stabilisent toujours pareil sur ce genre de jeu.

Les origines différentes selon la race choisie, ça change vraiment la première heure de jeu.

La primera hora cambia mucho según la raza, totalmente de acuerdo, aunque después el ritmo se vuelve bastante similar para todos.

L'origine naine m'a scotché direct.

À côté de Skyrim, ses origines racontent bien plus qu'un simple décor.

Ah oui, encore un jeu où on nous vend le "choix qui compte vraiment"... alors que la moitié des embranchements se referment au même endroit trois heures plus tard. Ceci dit l'écriture des personnages sauve largement la mise, faut être honnête.

Los duelos ganados hablan solos, no hace falta más.

Je l'avais installé sur l'ordinateur familial et je me souviens avoir mis presque une semaine avant d'oser lancer un combat de groupe correctement. Mon frère regardait par-dessus mon épaule en me disant quoi faire, ce qui ne m'aidait pas vraiment mais on en rigole encore.
