Hot take

This the best combat in the series :hubie:

Something satisfying about playing rogue

Timing combo skills

Dodging

Heard someone complain about lack of enemy variety :gucci: Dragon Age always had a limited variety of enemies in each game at certain levels that all did the same 1-3 attacks or spammed the same abilities :unimpressed:

Don't know how far brehs are into the game but if you're playing on the harder difficulties, the level Ossuary will bring you to the brink of madness. The enemies in there are almost too much. Died 5 times already. Make it worse is the game real skimpy on them potions. Gotta nikka runnin round feenin for potions cause I'm scared to go the next area with 0.

Edit- it's 5:40pm. I posted this over 2hrs ago. I just finished it. Took me damn near 3 hours to clear this level. I know I died about 15 times too and that's before even getting to the boss. Fighting that nikka, I died like 8 times before I could figure out a strategy that worked.

Imma get tar n feathered but this is considerable more enjoyable to PLAY than bg3. And on release seems to be bug free, the writing is kinda of eye rolly but its far from bad enough where its bringing the game down much. I found the previous dragon age games fukking corny too I thought that was the point tbh :mjlol:
:pacspit: :pacspit: :pacspit: :pacspit: :pacspit:I haven’t even played the game but everything I have seen and heard makes me want to spit in your eye for that blasphemy. If I was a mod I would ban you for a month.

:comeon: It was just a joke relax goofball, why would I be genuinely upset when BG3 is a critically acclaimed game and you was just stating your opinion it’s all just tongue in cheek.

you telling me to relax when I simply said keep it moving after you said you want to spit in my eye over my blasphemous take. And I'm supposed to be able to read your mind that you are joking :mjlol:

stop being weird crodie

This game is great. Although i understand why red pillers have been review bombing it. was almost design to trigger them
You literally have a gender identity side quest where you help one of your teammates identify as They/Them and help them cope with coming out to their parents. :dead:

this is the first time i ever helped character discover their gender identity in a game before. Be like having people discuss racism everytime a black character appears. Its fantasy, they created a world without racism. a black elf isn't looked at any differently than a white elf, you got mexican dwarfs leading armies of blended racial groups while wearing european inspired armor. why create a world where racism doesn't exist but still has trans discrimination? seemed out of place in this type of game. Would made more sense in GTA 6 in the modern setting .like if one of the characters has a kid dealing with this. Not a fukking half dragon. :mjlol:

But that said, its not something that ruins the game or deserves a campaign to see the game fail. Its just a case of cringey pandering that can be ignored if it doesn't apply to you, and hopefully appreciated by those who the message is intended for.

Welp, it sounds like straight non-sexed white men are going to have to deal with not being pandered to for the first time in 100 years

Crazy thing is that’s what missing from the game

Back before DA:I

Dragon Age really focused on racism especially involving elves like Tevinter is supposed to be basically Jim Crow era racist towards elves
