Worth getting on Steam?
I've seen all over reddit and other forums people complaining that the Steam version is messed up and that DLC doesn't work but I've seen tons more supporting the game so I want to buy it regardless. So I've been debating on waiting for a sale or buying it full priced on Steam over discounted prices for Origin or GOG because I like to keep my game library on one platform. Just wanted to check with some who actively play the game and can tell me if there's any issues or if I'm just being dumb.

For anything you may need, take a look at the pinned post, covers pretty much any common issues. I'd really advise you to play with the 4GB patch, DAO is quite an old game and has some memory leak problems, this fixes most of them.

Yes, as I said, only this forum. And no, as I said, I can't see it on Steam store. Literally... read what one says before replying.

lol.... the Store tag is The Store Page..... :steamfacepalm: so if you click store page here it goes to store page. This entire thing is on Steam. Steam Store is the Store of Steam, if you look at top it even highlights STORE which is ..... yep the Store.
You can also type Dragon Age into the search function of the home page where you look for the games in steam which is a store which is the steam store.

Dude, I don't wanna be mean, but u're looking dumb repeating the same thing and not reading what I say. There's no store link, this forum works as games that were sold in the past and removed from store. There's no store page. When searched for, it doesn't list.

What's listed is Dragon Age Origins: https://store.steampowered.com/app/17450/Dragon_Age_Origins/, no DLC.

We're talking about is DAOUE, Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition, id 47810. They have the same base game but are different editions, technically they are different games, as Skyrim and Skyrim Remaster.

DAOUE has all DAO DLC + some extras that were added to it and never released as DLC for those who bought DAO past that. It has even some gear for DA2 that we receive when we login Origin.

I bought DAOUE on Amazon, had to pay over R$400 for it, and it only runs with the DVD on the drive. I also bought DAOUE on GOG for around R$30, it's the exact same game without that DRM. DAOUE isn't on sale on Steam.

Also the repeat is for you since you don't seem to understand simple thing that store is store so if you can go to it from here by clicking store clearly it in the store because that is the store..... Really trying to hammer that simple thing in.
(even included typing it into search function to counter your argument on not being able to get to it any other way which would be odd).

It's not available in every region for some reason, but apparently getting a key from third party websites works (as long as they are "Global" keys and not region locked).

DAO:UE is on Steam but it's not available in your region.

I've had no issues with DA:O on Steam. Works the same as the original disc versions as far as I can tell. EA offers the DLCs via their support pages if you're missing something.

U're still failing to understand something so simple. It (DAOUE, which we're talking about) is **not** listed on search, and this forum does **not** have a link to a store page.

Steam has store pages and forums. They are different things. There are some games which has a forum on Steam and doesn't have a store page, because they stopped being sold but the forum remains for ppl who bought the game.

There's a store page for DAO, and another page for DAO Awakening, which is its espansion. DAOUE isn't DAO+DAO Awakening. As I said and u insist on not read, DAOUE even has contents which were never published as DLC. Even if u buy DAO + its DLCs + DAO Awakening, u'll still miss content available only on DAOUE.

Please learn how Steam (store page and forum) works, and read very carefully the particularities of the mess that EA did on DAO.

I'm trying to be polite and explain it as clearly as possible to u and not join the usual hate so common on internet lately, and u seem to be eager to make me fail that.

Really? I never heard of games being available only in some regions. Why'd they do that, and not do it for the base game?

Well I'm glad it's available on GOG, I always prefer buying games without DRM. GOG has same prices of Steam when neither of them are on sale.
