    A great game. One of the few games that I played through multiple times. One of the best stories that I can remember, and there is some great walking around conversation between your party members. Graphics are subpar, but the story and gameplay makes up for it.

    Reminds me a lot of KOTOR so far, which makes sense considering the developer.

    I started as an elf, just got done killing that douche that stole my bride, now I have to leave the village. Enjoying myself so far

    An excellent game that mixes tactical group combat along with great story telling, and multiple tough decisions that affect the story. One of my favorite RPGs for the 360. Don't bother with the 2nd one though it takes all the great combat and turns it into a button masher plus the story is subpar at best.

    DO NOT PLAY DA2. The biggest abomination of a sequel I have ever played. Mash-mash-mash, and you go through the same dungeon every single time.

    It was honestly one of the worst games I have ever played. Such a far cry from the original which was better in almost every single way.

    prepare for terrible, slow moving gameplay and one of the greatest stories written in a game ever, as well as a great cast of characters with well done voice acting.

    I didn't like what they did with Anders character in 2.

    so far I've made it through the Grey Wardens intro quest, got betrayed by the guy who I could tell was evil the first time they showed him, and now I'm at the village with the zombies and the sick arl.

    Haven't had to make any substantial decisions yet, at least not that I'm aware of. Liking the game a lot so far, will probably play more tonight.

    Seriously though, instead of playing the sequel play Origins multiple times.
