Dragon Age: Origins Previews

Two more previews for upcoming BioWare RPG Dragon Age: Origins are now available, courtesy of its showing at the Game Developers Conference. GameDaily.

“We’ve called the game a spiritual successor to Baldur’s Gate II [BioWare’s popular role-playing game from the early ’00s] … but more mature, with a little more grit to it; some more blood, cool finishing movies … that kind of stuff,” lead designer Mike Laidlaw says.

Also like Mass Effect, the game will cater to all stripes of gamers, but still have crazy customization and depth for role-playing game traditionalists. As the leader of a four-person party, you have two options on how to manage your crew in battles. Micromanagement control freaks can control every move during combat, or let the game decide your party member’s reactions based on their skills, which can then be tweaked if you so desire.

And G4 TV offers an extended look video.
