That's pretty much true. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 11/04/2011 04:08:48 AM
It doesn't bother me at all, actually; I would probably be more irritated if a paltry team managed to beat a massive Blight. I like the kind of mediocre scale it was set on.

What I would like to see for DA3 (if DA2 doesn't kill it) is a Greater Pride Demon as the antagonist. From the codex entry on demonic possession (emphasis mine):

"Strongest of all demons are those of pride. These are the most feared creatures to loose upon the world: Masters of magic and in possession of vast intellect, they are the true schemers. It is they who seek most strongly to possess mages, and will bring other demons across the Veil in numbers to achieve their own ends—although what that might be has never been discovered. A greater pride demon, brought across the veil, would threaten the entire world."

A greater pride demon who is based in the Black City and is sending hordes of demons to Thedas... AWWW YEEEAAAAAH
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

I think the OP is full of shit. LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 01:23:28 AM 960 Views
Having Anders get pissed at you when you won't sleep with him is stupid. Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 01:35:58 AM 991 Views
I'm not disappointed much, but that's because I had low standards LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 01:47:22 AM 900 Views
I must say, my BGII character is a woman... Legolas - 04/04/2011 10:18:46 PM 887 Views
yah, definitely. that's pretty much WHY I have low romance standards LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 11:58:50 PM 859 Views

If that dude wasn't into Merrill, than he's a fag. *NM* Dan - 04/04/2011 01:28:55 AM 566 Views
They're neglecting the gamer demographic in DA2. Sexuality has nothing to do with it. Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 01:33:45 AM 905 Views
yah they were pretty empty. The only reason I'm not irritated is that at least they're completed. LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 01:50:54 AM 930 Views
Don't worry; you'll be able to get it as overpriced DLC installments! *NM* Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 03:03:24 AM 424 Views
YES!!! That just makes me feel so much better!!! *NM* LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 03:34:12 AM 380 Views

So, not a fan? Dannymac - 04/04/2011 06:15:21 AM 980 Views
No. I haven't even finished because I'm so bored. Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 08:49:14 AM 921 Views
They could have done a LOT more with all the in-city strife. LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 02:32:11 PM 892 Views
I don't feel bad paying for it, solely cause I never paid for DA1 *NM* Kronin al'Sulc - 04/04/2011 10:01:43 PM 483 Views

As far as excuses for developer laziness go, that's a pretty poor one. Ghavrel - 10/04/2011 12:02:23 AM 839 Views
Yah this is what I was talking about. The repeat of tunnel systems in totally unrelated areas. *NM* LadyLorraine - 10/04/2011 05:32:11 PM 398 Views
It's not an excuse. Dannymac - 11/04/2011 06:36:45 PM 928 Views
Re: It's not an excuse. Ghavrel - 11/04/2011 07:06:11 PM 886 Views
No, it's not that they keep coming... LadyLorraine - 10/04/2011 05:38:30 PM 859 Views
Re: No, it's not that they keep coming... Dannymac - 11/04/2011 06:41:30 PM 883 Views
...did you even read my main post in this thread? Ghavrel - 11/04/2011 07:08:31 PM 875 Views
It's not like I said they broke the game for me LadyLorraine - 11/04/2011 07:40:23 PM 957 Views
Something I wonder then: Why is it called Dragon Age "2"? Zalis - 04/04/2011 03:06:46 PM 926 Views
Pretty much. EA likes to churn out franchises. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 07:41:57 PM 391 Views
Huh? Dannymac - 08/04/2011 04:59:49 PM 929 Views
Penny Arcade had a good post on this topic recently beetnemesis - 09/04/2011 09:39:21 PM 1335 Views
Point of fact: in DA: O you're fighting the Fifth Blight, not the First. Ghavrel - 09/04/2011 10:10:17 PM 997 Views
Yeah seriously, the Fifth Blight was pretty lame in retrospect beetnemesis - 11/04/2011 04:01:03 AM 899 Views
That's pretty much true. Ghavrel - 11/04/2011 04:08:48 AM 872 Views
Wow, yeah, you're right. Dannymac - 11/04/2011 06:43:40 PM 930 Views
I've actually liked the combat in most Bioware games beetnemesis - 04/04/2011 10:46:12 PM 989 Views
I think the fact that most NPC possibilities go either way is kind of weird. Zalis - 04/04/2011 05:41:04 AM 1035 Views
Zevran was really the main one that would hit on you no matter what. Kronin al'Sulc - 04/04/2011 06:13:04 AM 1072 Views
saying Zevran is kind of a slut... LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 06:14:54 AM 860 Views
On a general note, what annoys me... Fanatic-Templar - 04/04/2011 07:19:32 AM 874 Views
In fairness to Bioware, in this game you get different bonuses for "rivalry." *NM* Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 08:50:29 AM 419 Views
Oh, that's nice. Fanatic-Templar - 04/04/2011 09:45:21 PM 882 Views
I will let you know when the game comes down to less than 20 bucks... MightyYT - 04/04/2011 07:50:06 AM 850 Views
Yea, the times I do play this game just gives me a longing for DA *NM* Kronin al'Sulc - 04/04/2011 09:58:03 PM 499 Views
That's just bullshit Fox and Ravens - 04/04/2011 06:42:14 PM 853 Views
i bet he still initiated all his romances Foxhead - 05/04/2011 10:42:40 PM 894 Views
