Ten great games with terrible storylines

Nice video game, shame about the plot...

Dragon Age: Origins



Dragon Age: Origins is arguably the most hackneyed RPG in the history of the genre. The plot is a creatively bankrupt mishmash of a hundred cheap fantasy novels, all churned into a flavourless paste. Every character you meet speaks reams of 'Ye Olde Fantasy' pap in dodgy English accents, and the overriding plot is as clichéd as they come.

The principle cast all do solid voice work (especially the lovely Claudia Black as Morrigan), but that can't make up for the risible D&D plot. Anyone who enjoyed the storyline to Dragon Age: Origins needs to get laid; plain and simple.
