I beg your pardon my lady, did I hear you speak?

Dragon Age was a fantasy RPG released in 2009, and the original game in Bioware’s Dragon Age franchise. The game featured a medieval fantasy world clearly based on Tolkien’s Middle Earth and Game of Throne’s Westeros, although it still told a riveting tale from beginning to end.
