What did you think of Dragon Age Origins?

So my brother asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I am really wanting an RPG. I'm leaning towards Dragon Age Origins, and then after playing that I might get Dragon Age 2. What did you think of Dragon Age Origins if you've played it? And should I get it or not?What did you think of Dragon Age Origins?
If you have enough time on your hands, definitely get the game. Between the multiple origin stories, the DLC's, and the multiple story choices you can make throughout the game, you rarely play the same game twice.



I suggest getting the game in the double pack with Awakening. You should definitely play Awakening after Origins but before DA 2.

If you like fantasy RPGs that are heavy on story and dialogue you will like the Dragon Age series. The games is massive, easily 50+ hours of gameplay. Each time you start another character you are sure to find something new. The game also reacts to your choices and there are dozens of possible endings. There are a couple of downsides though. Combat can feel slow and tedious at times. The inventory is also messy and awkward to deal with.
