Have you ever Licked a Lamppost in Winter?

I can't get over how much I enjoy Dragon Age. It's got multiple stories in a story, its got complete character development, and its got what all individuals who adore reading want to do--the chance to get involved!!

I have officially finished Dragon Age: Origins, and Dragon Age II.
I have to say, I liked the first one much more. But I still enjoyed DAII, especially when I got over all the changes.

I just wished in DAII that my decisions made more of a difference. There are some things where there was no way in hell the story would go any other way, no matter if I were diplomatic (I played the diplomatic character) or aggressive (Sam played the aggressive character who also told a lot of jokes).  And I do definitely wish there were more moments to interact with my companions, like having a questions menu.

BUT but but. My palms were just as sweaty when I was making the finals decisions in DAII as in DA: Origins. My heart was a flipper-flapper-pitter -patter. I wanted to say the right thing, agree with the right people, and not lose anymore of the companions I had already lost.

And I'll tell you why:
Bioware has the amazing skill that most video games lack in this day and age-- story telling.
They can tell one helluva good story. And they can make you give a damn about what kind of person you want to be.
They do it Dragon Age. They do it in Mass Effect.
They just do it.
It's amazing.
And I just can't get over it. It's like reading the best book ever and playing your favorite character. I love it! Woohoo!


Now I should go do some Chemistry homework.
Sigh. :(
