Dragon Age
Alex C:
That sucks.
As far as morality goes, I'm just glad they decoupled alignment/morality from your abilities for the most part. For example, it bugs me that in D&D that good and evil are so absolute and that some spells are capable of being considered essentially and irrevocably evil according to the game's cosmology, even though the Priest of Ilmater the Crying God over there just caved in some poor shmuck's skull with a holy symbol. For example, aside from spells that directly counter the undead, necromancy is a dark art and undeath itself is evil, full stop. There's been an exception made here and there, but overall those are just that, exceptions, and rarely last an edition, baelnorn aside. Then again, I'm the sort of guy who heard about Blood Magic and thought "Who cares if it's my blood? Fucking pansies," so maybe my stance here is skewed. If it ain't Star Wars, I don't generally think morality should affect how you do violence, and even then it's an oversimplification of the setting.
Christ, I'm such a huge nerd.

I was over at the store today, and it sells for 399NOK to PC, but 499 to PS3 and Xbox. Either the store has figured out a good way to fight pirating, or they are absolutely rad, or I don't know, but the flash game was excellent as far flash games go, and it's Bioware, and oh God I'm buying this after my birthday presents all come in.
Darke:
Hmm. Think I might just wait and add this to my Christmas list. I'm sure it's a tremendous game, but thankfully I avoided all the hype about it, so I don't have that horrible craving I get for games that I've been following since their announcement. It can wait. :)
Dimmukane:
Man, I played this game for 5 fucking hours yesterday. When I told myself I'd be working on that project due next week. Fuck. BUT I KILLED A FUCCIN' DRAGON!
So it's all good.
Alex C:
Normally, I'm a boy scout in these games, but I rerolled as a mage and now for whatever reason I've suddenly turned into the most cheerfully mercenary SOB to walk the lands. I'm a freakishly resilient Arcane Warrior/Blood Mage and pretty much every scenario starts with Zevran (kind of annoying) and Morrigan (likes me so much now that the conversation options are essentially reduced to "try to get into her robes" or "willfully antagonize," which is kinda funny since I'm not bothering with the romance) egging me on while Ohgren stands around being too drunk to care. Usually the encounter ends with us merrily curb stomping half the people in Ferelden. Sometimes we even kill darkspawn.
