Dragon Age II
DRAGON AGE II IS A TRAGEDY [hella spoilers], and I am such a fucking sucker for tragedies.
If I'm honest, I don't think Bioware actually advertised it as such, rather went the "epic fantasy hero" advertising route, but the thing about a good tragedy is that it tells you up front that something terrible has or will happen. Varric's opening interrogation by Cassandra may not spell it out for the player, but something has happened, and Cassandra needs not only answers but a hero.
