Over the weekend I went through the two current DLC packs for Dragon Age: Origins. I didn’t really plan it, it just happened that I liberated the Warden’s Keep on Saturday and got Shale into my party on Sunday. It got me thinking about the cost of DLC.
The Stone Prisoner (which ...

I realize I kind of skimmed over the whole skirmish trait system in my last post. Here’s more detail.
You’ll talk to a Skirmish Captain to organize your traits. Here’s an empty trait panel — it’ll feel pretty familiar to any LOTRO player:
And here’s my ...

First look at LOTRO Skirmishes
So it seems someone else may have survived the Battle of Ostagar, but this person was captured by the Darkspawn (rare, but it does happen. Bregan was captured, after all). Now this individual has escaped and he or she is looking for help from the Grey Wardens.
Yeah, that’s pretty ...

Siege of Mirkwood Preview Event (LOTRO)
A busy weekend kept me from playing as much Dragon Age as I suspected I would, and it came after me not touching the game in any significant way in the last few days of last week (due to other commitments, not lack of desire).
Tonight I finished one… ‘chunk’ of the ...

So I’m about 16 hours into my current game, with enough in other characters that I can probably safely say I’ve put 20 hours into Dragon Age: Origins so far. I’m growing ever more sure that this is my personal Game of The Year, which frankly surprises me given how much I ...

I guess the Bioware/EA press juggernaut took a week off to catch their breath. But they’re back and this time a decent video of the combat system in Dragon Age. Clearly the people being filmed expect you to be watching this before you play, so there’s a bit of redundancy (assuming ...

Back when Ohai formed, mostly I thought “Cute name” and then pretty much forgot about the company. They’ve been keeping a low profile until now, when City of Eternals stepped out of the shadows (and you will, I pray, pardon the pun).
This is a web-based, Facebook-connected ...

Runic Games just passed on word that TorchED, the toolset used to make Torchlight, is now live. That’s the good news.
The bad news? It’s being hosted at FileFront . 384 meg file download time? 90 minutes. Hopefully that’s just something weird between me and FileFront, and ...

Wow, not sure I ever tried a title that long… let’s see what happens.
Anyway, all this idle speculation about the future of Warhammer Online (not to mention Champions, not to mention the early death of Tabula Rasa) has me wondering something.
Would you start playing an MMO if ...

I don’t usually do this, but since it is topical I’ll make an exception.
My blog post at ITWorld today is an opinion piece (and I wish that site emphasized posts tagged opinion more) about the EA layoffs:

RunicGames said on their twitter account today : “TorchED update, we found a bug on the last build, going to try to fix it tonight and get it out tomorrow. Updates in the forums!”
So here’s hoping we get it tomorrow. They’ve posted a few items to get you prepared ...

Warning: Not a game related post.
Some suggest that the holidays are upon us. So first of all, I have to dispel that notion. We’ve got 2/3rds of a month before we hit Thanksgiving (here in the states) and six weeks before Christmas arrives. I hate how Christmas starts earlier and ...

So after promoting Dragon Age heavily for the weeks leading up to the game, I’m happy to say that it is everything I hoped it would be, and I’m very much enjoying my time in the game. I spend much too much time reading and re-reading the codex and chatting up every NPC I can find ...

If I’d known then what I know now…
I’m not going to go into spoilers, but some events that happen in the Dragon Age storyline are going to hit people who read the prequel novels a lot harder than those who didn’t. If I’d known ahead of time what was going to ...

If you bought your version of DA:O digitally, or if you bought the console version, you might be interested in downloading the manual for the game (I haven’t seen the console manual but I’m told it’s pretty thin). I just had a read through it and learned some nuances I ...
