Re: Dragon Age: Origins

The Blood Dragon Armor isn't anything special, you'll find many more better pieces of armor later in the game.

Juggernaut Armor, Knight Commander's Plate, Armor of the Legion and Wade's Superior Dragonbone Plate Armor. There is no shortage of good armor in the game for warriors.

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

In regards to disappearing characters, yes they will definitely disappear WITH the gear they have equipped. In which case you could reload last save and then un-equip their gear.

Also use the code for the DLC that came with the game. One is Armor as you say, the other is a mission which may be ...

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

I just turned my game up to nightmare difficulty because my Arcane Warrior is tearing through everything.



Arcane Warriors break the game. I've had 3 playing, warden, Morrigan and Wynne as Arcane Mages and the game is just seriously broken when you do that..

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

Yeah i do pause. But i still think it's hilarious that the health bar seems to have some black-ish shadow applied across it so between about 20% and 80% it looks the same.

Don't suppose you have a screenshot? I've never had trouble telling percentage of health before and I can't think of what ...

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

It would be difficult only if you didn't pause the game.

Playing on a harder difficulty, that would be rather stupid lol, also long as you have them use a potion when they're below 50-25% hp, you won't need to worry.

Not like it costs much to make Lesser Healing Potions. 2 soverigns is ...

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

My modded out team looks great :D (Had to disable Morrigan's jubblies hanging out to keep it SFW).



Oh and for some reason it's not showing my Mabari Hound right. It's meant to look like a wolf.

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

Anyone used this mod?

http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15

I'm tempted to try it but I think I'll wait until I get my SSD. Load times can already be kinda tedious after a long playthrough.

Wondering what kinda hit to the FPS will be.

Re: Dragon Age: Origins

This gets my game of the year award personally.

Heck it's not even my kind of game (normally hate having to micromanage) but it all comes together so well, the story is really engaging, it looks amazing, the soundtrack is fantastic, the characters are wonderful and it's soooo addictive ...

Huge Digital distribution thanks giving sale!

I bought Dragon Age : Origins retail for $99 cause I didn't want to waste my monthly download quota. Then happened to come across the Steam deal this morning.

So I bought THQ Pack, Osmos and Dragon Age : Origins for $87USD ($97AUD).

I just got TWENTY games for the price of Dragon Age ...

MW2 MP

Couple things that aren't great about the MP but are functional (which I assume IW figured would be good enough).

Listen servers so one of the players you're playing against will be hosting the game, meaning they will have an advantage against the other players having better rego and having ...

[quote]It definitely is a step backwards in terms of PC MP, I just can't understand why people would boycott it when it won't make a significant enough difference to make IW think about going back to allowing dedicated servers.

To say that boycotting and voicing disagreement does not work is incorrect. It doesn't always work, but it is better than being pissweak and saying nothing when you believe in or fundamentally disagree with something.

Good points.

From what I've read the game is fun and works well (mostly). However, even if it was voted Most Awesome Game Ever and had zero issues, it's still a significant step backwards in terms of multiplayer technology/features and accessibility (modding). As you noted, the question is ...
