Yeah. Dragon Age Origins my four siblings and I all played it. Each of us had different starts, different experiences playing, and different ends. This has rarely happened in choose your own games for us as most of them are just the illusion of choice. I was so excited for Dragon Age 2 just to find out it gutted the decision making.

God damn. Have you guys ever considered playing an MMO together? With that commitment to party balance, you can easily form your own party in like World Of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XI or XIV.

Yeah. We played multiplayer games together like crazy but not MMO's as that would've taken multiple computers. Our party balance was hella good though. Each of us became very good at cooperating with others as a result as different games required different balances and each of us adapted to the party needs.

We don't really play together anymore though as adults though. Gaming PC's are expensive and the only other sibling I have that has one has a kid so any gaming time he gets he understandably spends with his friends.

At least I have friends/a husband to play with though.

Right. Forgot that you technically can't share computers.

At least there would have been Tabletop Role-playing.
