You sound like you are a 12 year old who is embarrassed by sex playing dragon age in your family room. lawl.

Got further into the game, story is good, but lack of new scenery is killing me. Does Bioware really think we are that stupid to notice that a dungeon is new if we play through it backwards and add little different rooms?

So... I just realized sword and board is completely useless since I'm kite tanking anyways cause damage output is Farking insane on nightmare. Just a tip to everyone else who hasn't realized it yet.

All in all a very rushed an bland game, i cant see
myself buying any of the DLC that comes out unless Bioware
actually put some god damn effot into it ¬_¬

Blame EA more than Bioware.. "Ooooh, Dragon's Age Origins was so popular, hurry up and get DA2 out as fast as possible." This is why I believe companies like Bioware and a few others should be allowed to set their own deadlines. Fuck EA.

Good point.
But i guess when EA brought Bioware out this was always going to be the case

They messed up KOTOR2 Badly by rushing it for Xmas instead of giving it another year. And they
messed up DA2 by rushing it to boost their finacial ratings for this year, instead of giving it
another year and runied it

EA thinks that quantity > quality.

*bump*

Finally got around to buy and play DA2, first game ~30 hours a good female mage. I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the game. I'm glad I didn't listen to all the things I heard and skipped it. It feels more like an action adventure, which is a shame IMO. It would also have been nice if they kept the party the way it is in DA:O, it's cool they got their own houses/places now but it's annoying having to travel to every place all the time >.<

Only read this if you finished DA2 or if you don't care about spoiling the story, contains stuff about the end:

Spoiler!

Given how you visit the same 4 areas in the game over and over and over and over and over and over and o... well you get the idea :palm:

Of course its them being lazy, they rushed the game. And the few people who i know who got the DLC
and said its not very good either.

Crowley · **Posted:** Mon Aug 22, 2011 7:14 am

DLC is not that great, about 1-1.5 hours of mediocrenessnessness. At the end there's a nice little fight though.

XMoshe · **Posted:** Mon Aug 22, 2011 10:20 am

Oh I liked that one o.o Got a nice staff from it :sohappy:

The end fight though... Maybe it's my noobyness but I almost failed lol, and I played on casual.

@satman: you're right, but somehow it didn't bother me that much o.o Several cities would've been nice though.

DA2 made me mad because this game had soooo much potential.. DA:O had a rich, wonderful story and engaging/tactful combat system.

They could of just improved off of DA:O.. all the elements were already set in place, except they made this poor excuse of a game.

And am sure you played Mass Effect 2 on an easy setting :palm:

XMoshe · **Posted:** Mon Aug 22, 2011 6:44 pm

I did actually, and 3 times on normal. I don't care much for those hard settings, I play games to have fun and relax, not to aggrevate myself. Unless it's co-op then I enjoy trying to do it on max difficulty.

Looks like Dragon Age 3 may actually be a good game.

Equally likely it's an obvious cash grab. Well, actually it's 100% gonna be a cash grab, so it's actually far less likely it'll be really good.

But but... didn't Dragon Age(1) came out like last year? So fast. :shock:

XMoshe · **Posted:** Thu Sep 01, 2011 4:45 pm

The game was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on November 3, 2009

From wikipedia.

satman83 · **Joined:** Oct 2006 **Posts:** 9541 **Location:** London

Came out late 2009, and am like 80% sure that DA2 came out late 2010...so in a sense first two games are a year apart and the 3rd one will most likely be out 2012...unless its rushed for the end of 2011...lol

Also while i agree with what their aims are, i try not to get my hopes up as when it comes to creativity vs project costs....EA will ALWAYS try to get the cheapest option...its how they work

XMoshe · **Posted:** Thu Sep 01, 2011 9:10 pm

release date for DA2 is March 10th 2011

Rented this game today with my friend. My A button is going to be faded when I'm done.

Crowley · **Posted:** Sat Oct 15, 2011 5:24 am

Anyone tried Mark of the Assassin yet? I'm gonna get it in a few days. Thoughts on it so far?

I never got the hate for DA2. I had a tremendous time playing it.

I actually prefer it to DA:O, though I have to say that I started playing that one after DA2 on a different platform, but the whole combat of DA:0 on the PC feels so horribly slow and clunky whereas the combat on the PS3 for DA2 was more fast paced.
