It's the small things that really make a game so much more fun and immersive, even if you don't notice them in the first go.
This is a small example how BioWare handles the spawn in some areas. Whereas there still is the traditional "spawn out of thin air"-system present in most areas, you also get to see something like this.
I've seen other spawn systems such as running out of buildings or crawling out of dirt/mud. It's certainly nothing new in terms of technology, still it's amazing and immersive nonetheless.

The intro into Gorky 17 aka Odium.
Gorky 17 (released as Odium in North America) is a turn-based tactics computer game developed by Polish developer Metropolis Software and published by Monolith Productions for Windows in 1999.
The game features two modes: In the real-time exploration mode, the player controls game characters using a mouse in a point-and-click manner to navigate the player characters through the city as well as interacting with various objects in the game world.
Combat takes place in pre-set encounters located in specific areas of each level map.
In the combat mode, the screen is divided into squares with player and computer-controlled characters taking turns trying to eliminate the opposing party. In one turn each game character can move by a certain number of squares and use a weapon once, or decide to take cover instead. Weapons have different tactical effects, for example the pistol can only be fired orthogonally, while the rifle can be fired orthogonally and diagonally.
The game ends if any player-controlled character dies. [Source: Wikipedia]
