Does anyone even care for Dragon Age 2

[x-machina]

I gave up shortly after the deep roads expedition. When it looks like the Quanari might start a war. (Don't know what actually happens so I can't be more specific.) It feels more like an MMO then a proper RPG. I mean all you do are sidequests, with little to no connection to the overall story. I thought the first one was a helluva lot better, but people seem to complain for the wrong reasons.

I'm complaining about how it was "dumbed down" I'm complaining about the story, or precisely, the lack of a story.

It so good I dont even want to talk about it, Id rather just go play. I love this game in its entirety. Except the first act. the dull, long, boring first act with a fantastic conclusion, but not great middle. The combat is better, character interaction is better, I have the opportunity to make hawke a sarcastic douchebag, etc. I love it. PLaying through the second time so far. First warrior, now rogue, mage next!

I have seen so view remarks of it without any praises,i played threw it 3 times already and still it rocks!What is you're opinion?

I'm over 20 hours in, if you played through it three times you either skipped huge amounts of content or have absolutely no obligations such as school or work.

MARCH BRAKE BITCHES! 3rd play through already.

I loved it on my first playthrough. It's nice to have a character who actually talks and reacts to other people instead of just making faces in the background.
I let my friend borrow it right after I started my second game and now I'm experiencing withdraw-like symptoms!

Not too excited. So far its degenerated down to me spamming the A button and occasionally moving another party member away from an ass beating. This is on hard. I'm a level 8 Reaver Fighter.

The more I play it, the more I realize that the change in companion armor customization (or rather, lack thereof) was less of a different gameplay direction as it was a new art direction. I mean, would Varric or Isabella hold the same idea of character in your mind if they wore varying shades of generic plate or chain the entire game?

OT: Currently on my second play through on PC, and enjoying it much like any other Bioware title. Yes, it's different than traditional RPG's, but I'd rather have Bioware experiment with innovation of old formulas than have them churn out the same game with a different name.

Personally, I adore Dragon Age 2, aside from occasional glitches I can't find a single thing I don't like. I definitely don't regret pre-ordering before January 11 (Auto-Upgrade to the Signature Edition).

The only reason I'm not playing it now is because I'm eating and my sister decided she wanted to play right now. lol

 

[cubikill]

I loved it. I havent beaten it, but i like it a lot. Not the best game ever, not even the best Bioware game ever, but very good.

I'm enjoying the game, as well. Sure, there are some flaws and some design changes that I wish hadn't happened, but overall it's another great game for BioWare with the same quality in storytelling and character depth that I've come to expect.

 

[Gitty101]

I care for it, as do many gamers in the Uk (DA2 at number one retail spot atm) ^^

On my second playthrough, doubt I'll stop there.

 

[Clive Howlitzer]

I thought it was awesome.

 

[Grubnar]

I bought and played the first Dragon Age game, Origins.

It failed to impress me and I am simply not interested in this.

 

[Nannernade]

Love it, currently playing through my second time the only thing that gets to me right now are the video glitches where the characters flicker, other than that no complaints.

My companions could actually follow the tactics I set for them though...

 

[Vetala]

People people! Dont just say that you love it. List up the good points, so that I can check you on my ignore list.

* story

that is all

now put me on your ignore list

 

[lazysquirell]

It's like marmite you love it or you hate it. Me I love it as much as I loved DA:Origins when I first picked that up wether it has the same replayability remains to be seen for me since I'm still on my first save but so far I've found very little I dislike in the game. Maybe I'm being a bioware fanboy but honestly I'm loving this game atm I get that not everyone likes it but you can't please everybody.

 

[Scorp123]

Finished my second playthrough today,so yeah i enjoy it a lot.

 

[Casual Shinji]

After I discovered the Deep Roads expedition was not a going to lead me away from Kirkwall to a new and interesting environment, I kinda settled into the my fate. I basically accepted the fact that I was not going to have a fantasy experience filled with epic adventures and discoveries.

Instead I would have to spent my time being trapped a mortar-grey Kirkwall.

Atleast it made me appreciate Dragon Age: Origins a heck of a lot more. And I wasn't even the biggest fan of that game.

 

[Madkipz]

its an ok game. Story is shit, timeskips suck, talents such as reaver and templar are diminished in epicness by not having quests that tie them in nor is the fact that Hawke uses blood magic ever mentioned. Gear is almost a non factior, and the wave system defeats the purpose of taunt and positioning. Bossfights range from stupid easy to easy and most of the implemented mechanics are designed around an action game and this simply does not work that well in Dragon age. Overall it tries to appeal to everyone and sacrifices its identity in the process.

Only thing that saves it is Isabella HERP DERP.
