This is a "once it's cheaper" for me, just because of the lot of the reviews make it sound a little patchy. But you don't get that many of this sort of game. To the point that I started a new Dragon Age: Origins save the other day. Might not finish it if it scratches the when-BioWare-were-good itch.
The opening hour or so in Orzammar is immediately a more interesting set up than Andromeda's "land on a plan and the first aliens you see shoot you."
