    Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening doesn't reach the high standards set by its illustrious precursor, but it's still a great game on its own terms. The combat and questing are as fun as they ever were and will keep you involved up until the very end, in spite of the uneven quality of the story and the characters that fill it. Oghren once said, "Misery, vomit, and malt liquor. Ah, reminds me of home." You know you've missed such delights too, and now's the time to head back. Read more

    • A few weighty decisions have a real impact on your adventure, Lots of great combat, with several challenging battles, New talents, spells, skills, and specializations,...
    • Disappointing story disrespects certain elements of the original, The new characters aren't very memorable.

    If you enjoyed Dragon Age: Origins, you will enjoy Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening (even if you don't enjoy typing it out.) On the same note, if you didn't enjoy Origins, you aren't going to think any better of Awakenings either - it doesn't add anything, but it doesn't make any serious mistakes, and it's just more of the same.
