Yes, on my third playthrough, same with DA2.  Both games have their pros and cons, but ultimately they are fun to play. I suppose it helps that adding mods to the game is fairly easy, as they make some parts of the games less annoying. While I don't mind the fade part in Origins, I can see myself hating it if I go through with my plan on playing every origin. I shudder at the thought of having to do that another four times, might invest in that mod to skip it even if I lose those few extra attribute points.

I did a couple of new DA:O runs in December. I really enjoyed them! For me Origins has lost none of its original appeal, the story and combat are still great.

I tried to carry on into DA2 with one of these characters but I just couldn't do it. I lost interest as soon as I got to Kirkwall, a pity really, I was really hoping I'd be able to get into it!

[JediHealerCosmin]

Honestly... yes.
I always get the mad obsession that I forgot to do something. Plus, I love it. And by that, I mean Origins.

I've finished it 8 times.

same here (i only continued a little, because i got the DLC for DA2 (mark of the assassin and the other large one and i was not really satisfied with both - the "blood of the hawke" one was at least interesting because of lore)...but yeah, it lost its appeal pretty quickly (i am back playing origins ATM, with a few mods))

I just discover it ten days ago...
Love it story lines and + 1000 to Morrigan
the others are good characters too specially Shale and Oghren.
I start awakening today. got DA 2 but will not play it finally. Never read a game with such bad comments ever specially knowing how excellent the first is still is.

Give it a try.  Its not a bad game.  Its not as great as DA:O, but its certainly enjoyable in its own right.  Most of the venom you see about it rises from a number of legitimate flaws inflated drastically by the furor of fans expecting DA:O2.

Well i'll start later today and will tell by the end of the week. Depending how many hours it will take to end the game.

If you can keep yourself from expecting DA:O2, you should be fine.

I haven't played since 3 years or so but I want to do a new playthrough for DA:I
so is it playable (graphics ...)? I know it's a bit old

Graphics shmaphics!

I'm perfectly happy playing KotOR right now, and hardly noticing the dated graphics. Gameplay comes first, gameplay always comes first.

As for Dragon Age Origins, I'm almost certain that I'll Istill be playing it ten years from today. It's a timeless classic. I personally regard it as the best videogame ever created in human history... but that's probably me being biased.

Yes. Of the two DA games I only play DA:O. DA2 is an insult to RPG players and so I don't play it.

What a load of crap. It's enjoyable game. It's not as great as Dragon Age Origins, but it's still enjoyable.
Still it beats DA:O at one thing only, it has protagonist voice actor. Its better than reading all the dialogues u r supposed to say

After 4 complete playthroughs since release, the last one in spring last year, I think I'm done with DAO for the time being.
Maybe around the release of Dragon Age 3 I'll give both DAO and DA2 another go.

[SpunkyMonkey]

Keep coming back to it again and again.

A lot of people overlook Dragon Age Origins' many flaws but relentlessly bash DA2. While I agree that DA2 isn't as good as DAO, both are flawed but enjoyable games.

I think the difference is down to where the flaws are in both games.

In DA:O the flaws are in stats, class abilities, mechanics, that kind of thing - some characters act like spoilt kids and some spells don't work. Annoying, yes, but not that big a deal.

In DA2, the flaws are that the storyline does not make sense, people mutate into glowing monsters with superpowers, Templars walk through your fireballs and death storms to ask you if you've seen any mages and every cave in the entire country looks exactly the same. These kind of things tend to be difficult to ignore.

Probably did my final DAO playthrough 4 months ago.
Still might play through DA2 a couple of times, one more time before DA3 and depending on whats imported to 3rd game I might feel that I have to replay it sometime after DA3.

But as for DAO, I like how my import-save turn out.

[Rhidor]

Bought the Ultimate Edition recently, and started my 8th playthrough (not counting all those times I started but never finished).

It is the game with the best replay value at all.

Did the same.

If they released an updated version with improved graphics (not a change in style tho! no!), more fleshed out board/collective/regulars quests (so they played like proper quests), and a few more DLC type bits integrated into the main plot (such as Soldier's Peak) then I'd buy it again.

I think a ramped-up DA:O for next gen would sell more than DA:2 did.

Definitely. As both DAO and DA2 have 4 romanceables i've got 1 user with 4 characters going through both origins and awakening. When finished these will go onto DA2 and then DAI. Also got a few more characters on other users. Not sure how many times I've played through, but probably close to 100

[LilyasAvalon]

Yup. It's a great RPG and story. Played it just last night actually. The game doesn't need an upgrade in graphics
 or whatever and I'm surprised people are asking for such. It only came out a few years ago, guys, it's not like it's a 16 bit black and white game.

Haven't touched DA2 for over a year now though.

Enjoyable, yes, but it was no where on the level of DA:O, in both quality and quanity. Voiced protagionists means **** all if s/he's stuck in a crappy story that's over in 10 hours.

I am wanting to get back into DAO. The hard drive I had previously died, so now I can start a new play through. It is a little intimidating for me though. DAO has more depth than most games out now and starting over from scratch is a little scary. I would also like to try out some HD mods with it but don't know where to start.

That, or if the voiced protagonist comes across sounding like a bit of an idiot for the majority of the game. Shepard may have said the odd goof but by and large, Meer and Hale did a cracking job across the series and things got better from ME2 onwards. Hawke's male voice actor sounded reasonable enough but his script was dire - there's only so much a VO can do with a turd.

E.g. Ander's 'Yeah I want a piece of you, handsome' was, IIRC, textually answered by 'No thanks' and voiced as 'Doesn't mean I want you to stop....' WTF? And of course, 'I WANT TO BE A DRAGON!'....

What's really weird is that, despite the fact that I've never genuinely preferred silent protagonists, it didn't bother me in DA:O in the slightest.

I am still playing both.  To be honest I have lost count of how many times I have played both games.  I am currently running through a mage play through for DA:O, Awakenings, Golems of Amgarrak and Witch Hunt for my canon in preparation for DA3.  I am also taking my rogue canon and supporting both sides in DA2 to get ready for DA3.  Once I get that done I will not have anything to do until DA3 comes out.

[esper]

No, I have told myself many times to do it. But then I hit the Kokari Wilds and while I am huffing and crying about how boring that is my mind wanders to the Circle quest and the Deep Road Quest and I sort off just give up.

But I really wants to replay. Boring combat and areas aside.

Same here. Only this time I'm really pushing the boat out - starting with a big boatload of extra spells and adding the Dual Weapon Training tree as I go on.

Yup. Mage/Arcane Warrior/Spirit Healer/Battlemage dual wielding Vigilance and Spellweaver.

[Kaidan Fan]

I still play both DA games.  Have them for Xbox and PC.  <3
