Which Dragon Age games are worth playing? (lemmy.ml)

I have never played any of the Dragon Age games, but I just gained access to the GamePass tier that has EA games, so I can play any of them.

I absolutely love all of Bioware's "classic" works (KOTOR, Mass Effect) where conversation choices affect the plot of the game. Would you guys recommend just playing the Dragon Age games in order of release, or what is the general consensus?

Origins and Inquisition. One was a masterpiece and the other was also great.

But I would suggest that you start wir Dragon Age inquisition since Origins simply feels like the old game that it is.

I agree on point one.

Disagree on point two.

DAO does have some age, but the writing is much, much better than in DAI. (Also, and I can't emphasize this enough, play DA:O's expansion pack. IT IS SUPERB.) Further, most of the side-quests in DAI feel like empty, MMO junk, whereas every side quest has some meaning in DAO.

"DAO does have some age" sure thing - it's in the name
