Are there any games like Dragon Age: Origins that aren't turn-based tiny-people slop that looks like it's for a smartphone?
Have you tried killing yourself?Because if not, I would really like to encourage you.

>>3561718Entirely depends on what you mean by "like Dragon Age: Origins".Mass Effect seriesWitcher 3Alpha ProtocolKingdoms of Amalur: Re-ReckoningGreedfall
>>3561735
>>3561718Sadly no. Baldur's Gate 3 is the best you can get. Mass Effect could do.
>>3561718Dude its not that good
>>3562034DA:O is a perfectly fine game that does some unique or interesting things, with some interesting characters.It was a great first game to establish a great series. Too bad the following games dropped the ball completely and didn't build on or fix anything from DA:O.
>>3562250>DA:O is a perfectly fine game that does some unique or interesting thingsAbsolutely none of this is true
>>3562251If that's the stance you want to take you make it clear you're already biased and irrational.Even the titular Origin system is something no other game did. Now go ahead and deny that, further proving how irrational you are.
>>3562255>Even the titular Origin system is something no other game did.Bruh just about every MMO has done different starting positions for different races/classes before.
>>3562255>Even the titular Origin system is something no other game didZoomer moment?Trials of Mana (Seiken Densetsu 3) did it all the way back in 1996. You can pick from 6 protagonists, and each of them gets a unique first chapter.
>>3562340Actually 1995, just double checked to make to sure.Point is, it's not even something unique or special. You pick a different character or class, and you get in a unique starting location. Tons of games have that. The Octopath series is another example.
>>3562335>Bruh just about every MMO has done different starting positions for different races/classes before.Which is not what the Origin system is. I take it you never played it.>>3562340That is also not the same thing. Another person that didn't play DA:O.If you want to be spoonfed, then just say so.
>>3562348I played both Origins and Trials, in both games you start in a unique location with some story and a couple fights, then you move onto the main game. Octopath works exactly like this as well, and it has 8 characters/origins.
>>3562352I ask again, if you want to be spoonfed because you're clueless then just say so.
>>3562354What the fuck is even your argument?
>>3562356That you have no idea what made the Origin system distinct, which is extremely obvious if someone played the game and even basic awareness.So if you want to be spoonfed because you're completely lost and/or ignorant, just say so.
>>3562357>I'm not gonna explain my schizo argument because it's extremely obvious>I'll just keep walking in circles and being passive-aggressivethen fuck off and don't waste my time
>>3562363All you have to do is ask nicely to be spoonfed anon
>>3562363As that other anon said. If you can't even swallow your pride and tone down your massive ego just to get an answer, then why are you even here.
>Awful performance and bugs years after its release.>Everywhere you go its a Loading Screen>Generic/Cliché Fantasy story>Dogshit mmo combat system>Shallow rpg elements>Bad world design>Terrible side quests>Clunky and slow controls>Bland and ugly art direction>Forgettable musicThis aged like milk, who the fuck shills for this shit? No wonder Inquisition was awful, Dragon Age was never good
>>3562383Sounds like BG3 and Pathfinder.
>>3562383Everyone sucked this game’s dick when it was released, though. Are you sure you aren’t just a bitter, smelly cunt?
>>3562420>Are you sure you aren’t just a bitter, smelly cunt?
>>3562383>Awful performance and bugs years after its release.played it no problemo in december 2009 on a potato pc>Shallow rpg elementsa thousand skills to fuel your dopamine addiction is not an rpg, the game a lot of pretty iteresting plot choices and forking paths, that's what rpg is>Forgettable musicit's not, the main theme, leliana's song are awesomei refuted all your blatantly wrong points, everything else is debatable, but i won't bother
>>3562383TruthIt's Overrated because of the era it came out in (era of dumbing down and selling out) with virtually no classic style RPGs being made then, so fans would gladly take whatever they could get at that point.
>>3562440>iteresting plot choices and forking pathsThat is story structure and can be done in any genre not exclusive to rpgs>Forgettable music>it's notPlayed dao just 2 months ago can't recall any music of my life depended on it
>>3562255>Even the titular Origin system is something no other game did.Zill O'll did the same exact thing, but better, back in the late 90's.Having characters with different backgrounds and campaign content that would change accordingly to who you played as was done by many games in the early 90's and again, done better than the DA games.Even the continuity gimmick with the Vault thing was already done before DA, those games did absolutely nothing that wasn't done before.
>>3563133Don't bother, I already brought up other games that did this, and he just refused to elaborate (and even samefagged to insult me).But I forgot to mention one thing last time. SD3/Trials of Mana's origin system is actually better, because you get a different end game chapter depending on who you pick, not just the prologue. And the middle part of the game is also better, because you're one of 6 possible protagonists, not just the same faceless warden.
>>3563133>Having characters with different backgrounds and campaign content that would change accordingly to who you played as was done by many games in the early 90's and again, done better than the DA games.Again, you could've just asked to be spoonfed.>>3563290So could you, but you're just too immature.The thing with the Origins is that they are effectively not just an extension of character creation, but allows you to change how the game plays out with additional choices and reactivity based not just on your choice, but what you chose to do in the origin.So it's not just a simplistic case of some>uh, pick char A to get to play level 2-A and pick char B to play level 2-B in a shooteror whatever other way more simplistic and dissimilar examples you made where it effectively just boils down to character selection like your Trials of Mana example (which is utterly deranged you think it's better when it effectively just loads of char C and changes absolutely nothing else, everyeone that pick char C initially gets exactly everything as everyone else and no additional branches or choices anywhere).But I can tell you're close-minded and won't budge from your position, so frankly I'll save myself hours of trying to make you understand what makes (what should be obvious) the Origins system stand out and be unique, while also being such a massively welcome thing in an RPG to have, when your mind is already made up and you would claim Trials has a better system until your dying breath regardlesss of what was presented.
>>3561720Don't you think that response is a bit extreme, anon?
>jarpigs did it firstno one cares
>>3563375Except they didn't do it first. It's like saying some arcade shoot em up did it first because you played another different level depending on your plane.
>>3563405I wouldn't know, I don't play RPGs for children and/or people who want to have sex with children.
>ctrl+f "spoonfed">5 instancesWhat an insufferable narcissist.>>3563133It's hilarious when newfags samefag because not a single one of them has any subtlety and they may as well put on a tripcode telling the entire thread who they are.
>>3563133>Zill O'llwhat
>>3563367It's honestly really sad how conceited you are, then again being delusional and bitter is a very common trait for westoids, especially biodrones.
>>3562383Too fat>>Dogshit mmo combat systemYou mean one of the best system which opens way to an amazing AI programming tool?
>>3564704>best systemLmfao, good one.
>>3563367>dude it's a lot more advanced than level 2-a and 2-b>sometimes you get levels 2-c and 2-dYour thread sucks as much as shit as dragon age, loser
>>3565259The point, which you or that other anon didn't get is>directly after character creation you get to play an extension of it, unique to your race/mage class>in this section you get to further shape your character, interact with story relevant characters in a location you will return to>many things are unique to your origin, both in terms of interactions and content (from unique merchants to additional playable sections), which is affected by what you did during the intro origin sectionIt's an extension of character creation, giving you more unique choices and content as a part of the main game.No other game has done an Origin type system.
I liked fidgeting with my party's tactics and feeling like a party leader and not some invisible hand in the skyIt's a shame that 15 years later and the AI is still dogshit. It feels like there hasn't been any progress whatsoever
