I guess none of these people played Elder Scrolls if they think Dragon Age is so amazing.

@22LtSmash Glad you stopped by to watch! How did you find us?

[22LtSmash]

@22LtSmash A really great, popular fantasy artist on deviant

art has this linked in his latest blog.

[ALRUFF]

@22LtSmash Well, I'm sorry you don't like Dragon Age :-( . Did you like our costumes, music, editing, etc?

Omg lol -- I saw the boy cosplaying Anders at 2:11 and all I could think was, "Oh hey Anders, let me touch your pretty hair." +A+ Even when it is not him I still love him /strokes.

Stalking aside, great video. It's very well put together documentary. Pretty professional for a friendly video. ;)

XD "Are you recording?" "Damn straight I am!"

@22LtSmash I have played both. I really enjoyed Skyrim but I definitely prefer Dragon Age as a whole. Remember it took a wide variety of races/classes to bring down the Archdemon - there is room for all tastes, and they can all co-exist. Apart from maybe mages & templars lol

@JMSLionheart i dont know, i enjoyed both of them very much. dragon age has a much faster pace, whereas skyrim takes forever to finish

@22LtSmash Upon its release, Dragon Age: Origins was lauded with overwhelmingly positive reviews and considered a critical success. Aggregate review site Metacritic ranks the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 versions of the game with scores of 91, 87, and 86, respectively. The game also received multiple awards from numerous outlets, ranging from IGN's "PC Game of The Year (2009)" to the Academy of Interactive Arts & Science's "Role-Playing/Massively Multiplayer Game of the Year 2009".

@saygoodnightmanuel Say it... Dragon Age Origins is far better than Skyrim! Well, that's because I preffer the focus on the emotions and relations between companions much more than an open world. For me, it is more important the way a story is told and the way you go through it while choosing between different dialogue options. Anyway, Dragon Age 2 isn't that good.

Conclusion, in my opinion: Dragon Age Origins>Skyrim>Dragon Age 2.

That guy as Wolverine at :45? Woof!

[AwkwardBex]

I am saddened by the lack of Fenris :C but other than that, you guys have all done such superb work on your outfits :) Brilliant!

[saygoodnightmanuel]

@22LtSmash You cannot compare Elder Scrolls to Dragon Age. DA plays like a narrative, with a dramatic structure and focuses on emotional tension and more fleshed out characters, while Elder Scrolls is more of a traditional RPG, focused on world exploration, non-linearity and customization. The kind of game you like more is a matter of personal preference.

@22LtSmash @Supergibb Whoa, there, good sirs! I think we're getting a bit out of hand, here. DA and TES both bring a lot to the table.  Daggerfall was an absolute revolution in open world gaming, and Skyrim has continued that noble tradition. DA is fairly linear, but brings a lot to the table in terms of moral and ethical dilemma. Both games are great, but for hugely different reasons! Not to mention they have two completely different art styles and intentions.
