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."

Bioware: Neglecting the Straight Male Gamer Kronin al'Sulc - 03/04/2011 11:15:30 PM 1824 Views
I think the OP is full of shit. LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 01:23:28 AM 1026 Views
Having Anders get pissed at you when you won't sleep with him is stupid. Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 01:35:58 AM 1040 Views
I'm not disappointed much, but that's because I had low standards LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 01:47:22 AM 955 Views
I must say, my BGII character is a woman... Legolas - 04/04/2011 10:18:46 PM 934 Views
yah, definitely. that's pretty much WHY I have low romance standards LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 11:58:50 PM 902 Views

If that dude wasn't into Merrill, than he's a fag. *NM* Dan - 04/04/2011 01:28:55 AM 589 Views
They're neglecting the gamer demographic in DA2. Sexuality has nothing to do with it. Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 01:33:45 AM 954 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 987 Views
Don't worry; you'll be able to get it as overpriced DLC installments! *NM* Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 03:03:24 AM 450 Views
YES!!! That just makes me feel so much better!!! *NM* LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 03:34:12 AM 403 Views

So, not a fan? Dannymac - 04/04/2011 06:15:21 AM 1033 Views
No. I haven't even finished because I'm so bored. Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 08:49:14 AM 984 Views
They could have done a LOT more with all the in-city strife. LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 02:32:11 PM 940 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 506 Views

As far as excuses for developer laziness go, that's a pretty poor one. Ghavrel - 10/04/2011 12:02:23 AM 899 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 423 Views
It's not an excuse. Dannymac - 11/04/2011 06:36:45 PM 980 Views
Re: It's not an excuse. Ghavrel - 11/04/2011 07:06:11 PM 934 Views
No, it's not that they keep coming... LadyLorraine - 10/04/2011 05:38:30 PM 900 Views
Re: No, it's not that they keep coming... Dannymac - 11/04/2011 06:41:30 PM 936 Views
...did you even read my main post in this thread? Ghavrel - 11/04/2011 07:08:31 PM 925 Views
It's not like I said they broke the game for me LadyLorraine - 11/04/2011 07:40:23 PM 1018 Views
Something I wonder then: Why is it called Dragon Age "2"? Zalis - 04/04/2011 03:06:46 PM 985 Views
Pretty much. EA likes to churn out franchises. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 07:41:57 PM 412 Views
Huh? Dannymac - 08/04/2011 04:59:49 PM 978 Views
Penny Arcade had a good post on this topic recently beetnemesis - 09/04/2011 09:39:21 PM 1390 Views
Point of fact: in DA: O you're fighting the Fifth Blight, not the First. Ghavrel - 09/04/2011 10:10:17 PM 1047 Views
Yeah seriously, the Fifth Blight was pretty lame in retrospect beetnemesis - 11/04/2011 04:01:03 AM 958 Views
That's pretty much true. Ghavrel - 11/04/2011 04:08:48 AM 931 Views
Wow, yeah, you're right. Dannymac - 11/04/2011 06:43:40 PM 990 Views
I've actually liked the combat in most Bioware games beetnemesis - 04/04/2011 10:46:12 PM 1042 Views
I think the fact that most NPC possibilities go either way is kind of weird. Zalis - 04/04/2011 05:41:04 AM 1085 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 1123 Views
saying Zevran is kind of a slut... LadyLorraine - 04/04/2011 06:14:54 AM 914 Views
On a general note, what annoys me... Fanatic-Templar - 04/04/2011 07:19:32 AM 921 Views
In fairness to Bioware, in this game you get different bonuses for "rivalry." *NM* Ghavrel - 04/04/2011 08:50:29 AM 441 Views
Oh, that's nice. Fanatic-Templar - 04/04/2011 09:45:21 PM 932 Views
I will let you know when the game comes down to less than 20 bucks... MightyYT - 04/04/2011 07:50:06 AM 897 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 524 Views
That's just bullshit Fox and Ravens - 04/04/2011 06:42:14 PM 901 Views
i bet he still initiated all his romances Foxhead - 05/04/2011 10:42:40 PM 949 Views
