:hubie:

no one believed in this game more than me during development and i got zero problems calling this shyt a franchise killing, studio death sentence level dumpster fire. and no it doesn't get better either. im looking at everyone in here who said that"it all comes together after ______" sideways too

:mjcry: Nah I was caping as hard as you difference is you have integrity. I just ducked this thread for months.
It’s so disappointing because they couldn’t even nail the writing down (except for Solas).

Like imagine if Infinity War came out and it was trash.

Inquisition was cool, just felt very bloated for no reason. The DLC for that game was amazing though. My fav DLC is the Descent one (When you get to go into the deep roads)
DA:I has been my favorite DA game. I was hoping DA:V would be more like that and just add some tweaks and improvements to the combat, which I loved, instead of just changing it to the arcadey nonsense they have in DA:V.

yeah honestly one of my fav aspects of DAI was the combat, at least in terms of how the attacks are animated and such. but I don't like how they watered down the tactics you can set up for your party and such. it was such a great gimmick in DAO and especially in DA2, the way you can micromanage your party member's actions in DA2 is just :ahh:

DAI is me second fav DA game after origins, it was the first game in the franchise I actually finished, funny enough because of anticipation for DAV and good lord I was heartbroken when I saw what they did to DAV. Every sin that folks said DAI committed was done 10 times over in DAV. A real shame such a good franchise had to go out like this.

Maybe I\'m delusional but I hope one day we can really get a good sequel to DAI, DAV is just not it. We can just say that DAV was a fever dream or some shyt :russ:

:mjlol:DA: 2 was trash. I can't play in the same town for the entire game.
DA2's problem was that it was rushed. They weren't even given two years. You could still see what they were trying to do with that game. Characters, story and dialogue were fine. The only bad thing they added to the game was enemy mobs spawning out of thin air.

This game isn't bad but it also isn't good. Probably for the best because I don't have the time to get super immersed in a rpg anyway :whew:


Excellent value for free ps game

I choose elf, veil jumper, mage and working towards spell sword. On the difficulty below nightmare.

It was easy to push through. I jumped into BG3 right after and it had a spark when it started but I've put it down multiple times. It's been months since I've touched it (or my PS5 Pro).

Been playing this for the last week and I’m having a pretty good time.

I can see why folks don’t like the dialogue and all that, but I’m digging the combat and story.

I felt like this for the first like the 10-20 hrs. Story got kinda crackin tho.

I'm still not a fan of the visit your crew between missions and listen to them bytch about their upbringing, but the companion/main missions are pretty dope.

With that said, I generally would have checked out all together earlier due to said issues, but the combat is fire.

:ehh:
