I remember playing about half of DA: Origins before it began taking over my life so I had to stop. DA2 apparently sucked. This one got a lot of critical praise when it came out and people seemed to like it at the time but I haven't heard a peep about it since then. Worth playing? Did it stand the test of time or get washed out?

    I personally loved it, although it's been since 2016 when I played it last. I put 95 hours into it and was disappointed that there wasn't more. I've tried a handful of times to go back to it over the years, and still enjoyed it every time, but something always ends up coming up where I can't put the time into it.

    It's also one of the few games of its type (out of the ones I've played anyway) that has romance subplots but doesn't have a hardcoded sex scene at any point, which I always appreciated. I assume that depends on the particular character you're romancing, but with my playthrough it never happened.
