So I have been playing Dragon Age: Origins every spare moment I have had. I'm not sure what to make of it, yet (I've put about 14 hours in so far? I think). I don't have any overwhelming fondness for any of the characters yet (Morrigan annoys me because Claudia Black is doing permanent sarcastic Aeryn voice, and that grates on me. Alistair annoys me because his voice actor just sounds...wrong (again with the permanent sarcasm, even when he shouldn't be being sarky. No. Just no). Oh wait, I do like Dog, though. And Sten. Maybe. He's growing on me, let's put it that way).
Oh, and Alistair and Dog (who I called Cerberus*) have some kind of understanding which I find hilarious. (Hell, who am I kidding? I find Dog's interactions with EVERYONE hilarious).
However it does remind me part of the reason why I loved Mass Effect in the first place, and that's down to the odd animations the characters have. The way they tilt their heads as they talk, for example. I know that's a weird thing to like but, uh, I'm a weird person.
And I've ordered Awakenings. Oh boy. What have I got myself into?

*I can imagine that's not nearly that original of a name for Dog? He nearly got called Sirius, so...yeah. Out of ideas already for my female character playthrough.
