  • Abstract:  I can imagine that years ago, when Bioware came up with the idea for Dragon Age, people didn't quite have the level of disinterest they now do in high fantasy. The project was announced shortly after Lord of the Rings: Return of the King swept the Osc...

  • Abstract:  Championed as the "spiritual successor" to Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn (widely considered one of the best fantasy role-playing games of all time), Dragon Age: Origins carries a great deal of expectations. Big-budget RPGs are becoming rarer and rare...
