Dragon Age: Origins (My new love <3)

So who here is playing Bioware's newest epic fantasy RPG?

I am pretty fricken addicted to it at the moment. Been a while since I have been THIS addicted to a game. It feels good, in the "I know this is not good for me, but I love it anyways" sort of way.

Currently playing as a Rogue, Human Noble.

I want to play as a Dalish Elf later, or maybe even a City Elf!

So who else here is addicted? I mean I know there are Bioware fans around here. I can't be the only one who is playing this. Though I am surprised that this is the first thread I have seen about it (in EoFF)! Then again, I did not put much effort into looking!

The online integration is neat, but right now it does take a while. 'Up to an hour' my foot. Maybe it'll speed up once the game gets a little older.

I'm on the fence between this and Tekken 6. I like the idea of sinking 100's of hours into a game so what I'm hearing about Dragon Age Origins is good so far. Although I can't help but be reminded of Oblivion (which I hated).

It is quite the different experience than Oblivion. Combat wise, it is much more tactical, allowing you to pause and give out commands, or do it in real-time. The plot, as far as I know about either while might be superficially similar, they differ (the whole evil invasion thing). Oh, and the characters? You just can't help but invest into them. Also, there are some hilarious points too.

Dragon Age: Origins, to me, has a lot more personality than Oblivion. At least that's how I feel so far. It just sucks you in.

I love it. I'm Human Warrior Noble. But I'm not liking my character. I may switch to a mage.

I'm really really hyped for this. Once I heard about the Gambit-like system that bioware has been an innovator of, I was hooked.

Gonna wait a little while though, I got Demon's Souls going on at the moment and the BFBC2 beta hits in less than 2 weeks.

How is this game compared to Demon's Souls?

I've got a Human Noble Champion at the moment, and am loving the game. This game is just epic, and loved the battle at Ostegar.

To me, the depth of the world and the way the story is presented puts Oblivion to shame.
