Dragon Age

I can’t believe I have had a little time to be able to play Dragon Age in my final class at College. But I had a 2 weeks break and took advantage of that, tomorrow is my last day of classes. I am so happy it will give me more time to play the game.
This is a interesting game to say the least. It seems no matter what your character will be stuck as a gray warden, so I am not sure how different the game play will be not like there to many blinds on it.
I am playing as a mage, So my character doesn’t use many weapons, and isn’t very strong on close up attacks so attacking from a distance is a good idea. My hubby is playing as a rouge something seem easier for him then for me but that’s okay.
This game gives you some choices which is nice, and there enough hunting to be doing. The battles are action based. The game has some challenging battles in the beginning but not to challenging to where you want to put the game away.
One thing I found interesting in this game is that your party has approval ratings for your actions and if they dislike you enough they will leave your party. I find this to be a good thing but kind of challenges because it seems if you make one member happy you tick of the other in turn. So the key is to keep everyone happy enough not to leave you.
I guess the world in this game is being over ran by demons, and as a gray warden you get to conquer them with some consequences. The graphics are pretty good but to bad they can not go up to 1080p I believe it’s 720p but the graphics are still good.

Can’t tire of Don Pablos

It’s been a couple weeks since being able to eat at Don Pablos, it seems it is dad favorite place, so maybe having a few holidays which force him to choose a new place is a good thing, or it could get a little tiring. The food is always great and thank goodness there are many options for me, I can eat all of their sides too. I wonder where they rank in the local food magazines, I know one thing I will not find out on richard willich news.
Dad had his two beef tacos, hubby had his chili and I had the pick two combo and chicken pepper and a chicken taco, for my side I had the corn bread and beans.
At first we thought we might have trouble with our waiter because he seemed a little rough around the edges, but he was new and didn’t know everything, so he was probably thinking hard about what on the menu then other more experience wait staff. He did a very good job in the end of everything. I do have to admit in the beginning I was tempted to ask for our other waitress but I didn’t want to hurt his feelings and I didn’t feel service was bad enough to do that.
I think our favorite part of dinner is the chips we tend to eat through those like it going out of style. They are very good, and we really do like them. The salsa for being mild is very spicy, sometimes it’s to spicy for dad, but he still eats eat. I seem to drink a lot of soda there when I am eating the chips. What tastes good is putting some salt on the chips and dipping it into the salsa. This is a great restaurant for a family night activity but it is very hard to hear each other.
