First off, I am having a ball playing this game. The storyline is great and the backgrounds (I have played one and have seen parts of two others) are well developed and help to pull you into the game.
As a parent to other parents: Believe the mature rating! Not only is there a LOT of blood and gore in this game, there are many mature themes that I consider too much for children. I am not saying this makes it a bad game, but as a parent you need to be responsible for the things to which your children are exposed. My younger children (ages 9 and 10) are not allowed to watch this game being played. This means I do not get nearly as much time playing this game as other games because I want to spend time with my children. Just be aware of what is in the game and make sure that you are comfortable with your children (whatever their ages) being exposed to it.
That being said, this is one of the most fun games I have played in a long time. I am a fan of having a lot of story in an RPG and like it that the combat system allows for pausing and and careful thought. If you are less interested in story and more interested in fast-paced hack and slash you might be disappointed (or maybe not, you might get sucked into the story anyway). The only complaint that I have is that they went so much for splattering blood around that in some cases it is almost silly, which somewhat detracts from otherwise intense moments in the game.Get more detail about Dragon Age: Origins.
