    Dragon Age Inquisition: Worth Buying?

    I... Really? How did you specialise? Because the Assassin reminds me of the mage in Origins a bit, in that it completely breaks the game.

    My turn-based itch demands to be scratched.

    Battle for Wesnoth. The graphics are very 1995, but the AI is quite clever and the campaigns are challenging.

    Dragon Age Origins...Bug in acquiring specialization while leveling up?

    Have you actually unlocked any of them, though? You can unlock Arcane Warrior during the Dalish quest, Blood Mage during the Arl of Redcliffe quest, Shapeshifting by talking to Morrigan if her approval is high enough and Spirit Healer if you buy a manual from Wonders of Thedas in Denerim. If...

    Dragon Age Origins - questions that bother me!

    Mana clash will oneshot almost every mage in the game. And if you were fighting the one I think you were fighting, if you cast it twice, he's toast. As for tactics, you have to be careful about the order you have them in. Not sure if this was the issue, but you may have ended up in some sort...

    [Dragon Age: Origins] A Roguish Type's Best Friends

    Well, Storm of the Century is nice if you have a good target and a safe spot to cast from, since it takes a while. I don't think that Entropic Death is worth it unless you're already investing heavily into the Entropy tree, but if you go full Entropy, you'll see some excellent results...

    [Dragon Age: Origins] A Roguish Type's Best Friends

    I agree that healers are essential in Bioware's previous titles and plenty of other RPGs, but DA:O is an easy RPG. You can get away with just maximising your party's damage output. Also, I think getting the most out of Wynne as a healer is a bit tricky, since you need to be really careful...

    [Dragon Age: Origins] A Roguish Type's Best Friends

    Erm... Why does everyone insist on having a healer in your party? I went through three playthroughs without taking Wynne places, because she's incredibly annoying and I hate her and yes, I know that hating pixels is irrational. I mean, it's not like there's a cooldown on potions in...

    A win against societies expectations of body image

    Eh, the guy looks fine. Hopefully he'll get genuine votes, not ironic ones. As for societal expectations... Well, society has the right to expect me to meet certain aesthetic criteria. Sure, personal tastes don't form in a vacuum, and trends change over time, but there will always be...

    To people with epilepsy

    Well, seizures that are triggered by visual stimuli are fairly rare even among epileptics (who also happen to be relatively rare), so I don't think that there would be a large population of gamers with that issue. Not to mention, if you do actually have photosensitive epilepsy, exactly how it's...
