What’s really funny is how much i enjoyed the game, even if it was way worse than the first one.. Well there is one thing that is good though.. It was SO much worse that bioware knows it and they will deffinitelly make a better third game
Bioware’s only human, they sometimes ***** up. *shrug*
@ticktock8692 I think he looks fine but his voice is boring as fuck
I’ll take this game over Oblivion any day. Is the voice acting shitty? No. Do the character models look like ***? No. Is the leveling system broken? No. Are the side quests fucking pointless and repetitive? No. Is the combat boring and shallow? No. Are the environments re-used? Well, yes, but so is every fucking dungeon design in Oblivion.
I plan to erase this abomination of a rpg from my memory in 7 days with Skyrim. its gonna be awesome!
@BeerTimeGaming who is talking about oblivion? oblivion ***** almost as much as DA2. Ok, not really, it is true that oblivion was a disapointment compared to Morrowind (the best elder scrolls game so far), but it still lives up to the elder scrolls name. Dragon age was supposed to be the spiritual successor of baldur’s gate(bioware’s masterpiece), tell me, do you see any resemblance between DA2 and Baldur’s gate? Do you see it living up to baldur’s gate name? i thought so…
@eusouocarameuirmao Dragon Age: Origins is the spiritual successor to Baldur’s Gate. With Awakening and the multiple expansions you D&D goons should have been satisfied. Bioware never claimed that Dragon Age 2 would be anything like it. They obviously decided to go in more of a Mass Effect direction with the franchise, which is A-OK with me. It’s funny how gamers **** change, yet complain when series like Modern Warfare remain largely unaltered over 4 titles.
@BeerTimeGaming i couldn’t care less if modern warfare is changing or not. I don’t play MW!! About the main topic: satisfied? Hell no! DAO is a badass game but it had a lot of flaws and left a lot of room for improvement, they should have worked on that. But noooooooooo…. “Herp derp, lets change the entire series for no reasons at all even though people loved the first game, herp derp”
@eusouocarameuirmao MW was just an example. I don’t play it either for the simple fact that each release is exactly the same as the previous. But that’s beside the point. I’m glad they moved away from the antiquated Baldur’s Gate formula. That game is inaccessible to the average gamer. Dragon Age 2 caters to a larger audience with varying play styles. Hell my wife who hasn’t played a game since the original Spyro the Dragon has beaten DA2 twice. $60 well spent.
@BeerTimeGaming Yeah, and now look at all the bitching and **** they are getting because of this! Complexity is the forte of a RPG, dumbing it down is its poison!
“That game is inaccessible to the average gamer” but that is exactly how it is supposed to be,otherwise we will end up with a lot of dumbed down “acessible” rpgs. DAO already was friendly and acessible enough. How much more do you want? a win button?
never played dragon age was wondering if I should start from origins or jump straight into number two ????
@Androidz101 dragon age 2 ***** bro, play dragon age origins. If you dont believe me, just do some research…
It sounds like someone else wrote the review and she just read it….
I fucking **** this fucking game. I don’t even dare to call it a game. It’s a walking forward and talking simulator. Don’t buy it, don’t rent it, don’t even give it a second thought. As I played it I thought it was just as bad as Final Fantasy 13 but you know what? It’s not just as bad as FF13, it’s fucking worse! Why you may ask? Because it’s Bioware and they should know better.
