I didn't like the non-linearity of the game. I really dislike the fact that i would feel rushed to save the world from the archdemon but i had enough time to clear out pimps from the local whorehouse. I don't know, not a huge rpg fan to begin with. I much prefer stealth and puzzle games.
Why are we hating on Dragon Age again?
OT: Not really hate, but the final boss fight for the awakenings expansion was REALLY difficult. For me it was even harder than the final boss for the main game.

Lost in Dreams. Apparently there's a mod for the PC version that allows you to skip that stupid fucking horrible level, but I'm stuck playing on a console.
I'd say the exact opposite. Playing through as a mage was a thousand times easier than playing as a warrior. It was so easy that I felt like I was cheating. How could you possibly consider them underpowered?Lord Legion said:
the fade section in the mage's tower
Gaaah!!! It just went on an on and on and....
And the combat as a non-mage was pretty dire

I approve of this. It is pretty annoying when people oversimplify stuff to make it sound dumb since you can do it to pretty much everything.lucky_sharm said:
OT: I have mostly nitpicks about the game. It bothered me that adding a beard to a character made the face all gaunt and uneditable. The settings were a little dull I guess. Saving times on the ps3.
I actually didn't mind the Fade section.
the character's mannequin line animations
Bioware is in serious need of a guy with a Mo-Cap suit
there's one scene with Lady Isolde that I won't spoil in case you haven't played it
but she's screaming and crying. and her voice is so full of emotion and pain. but when you look at her she's standing there doing the exact same hand motion Leliana uses when she's singing about the elves.
but you still do it outside

or the Morrigan sex scene where she's like "it's cold in my tent"bob-2000 said:

I don't know, you kinda nailed Halo's story therelucky_sharm said:
this should be it's own thread.
game stories in one sentence.
Beyond Good and Evil: get job, rescue pig
Mirror's Edge: deliver package, rescue sister.
Resident Evil 5: shoot foreigners, all bad guys turnout to be white.
I may sound like a noob here, but I thought it was way too hard. The enemies take twice as much damage as you and attack quicker. Eventually I gave up and changed to easy mode which wasn't exactly a walk in the park either.
The lack of completely legitimate means to reach the level cap unless you buy DLC and low numbers of troops you can have at one time in the final mission (50 man army: great. you can only have 6 of them at a time: dammit.
Oddly the lack of realism in one specific manner.
Your tasked with defeating the dark spawn and told you would have the option to recruit allies. Though you basically cant start the lansmeet until youve in essence completed the 4 prime subquests, even if it makes it an unwinnable situation. I can understand completing the redcliff segment, but that honestly should be the only thing you require before the lansmeet.
Other things... repetitive combat. Skills are basically irrelevant and unnoticeable after a while.
Release of like 6 DLC packs + expansion. After a while you just dont even care any more.
Lacking ability to actually change your NPCs personas. You can, but only to a very minor degree.
I could go on nitpicking, but why.. Honestly it was a great game and any bitches are minor at best.

Sir if that was padding then the bullet lodged in my thigh was a pointy marshmallow!zHellas said:
Not enough variation, too many dungeon crawls seriouslt the mages tower would have been fine on its own but I have never, NEVER seen a game with two long slog dungeon sections inside each other the fade was not fun or challengng just really time consuming. Noy enough exploration/secrets, melee classes felt way to simmilar.
Overall I loved the game, so I'll just throw in a few little nitpicks I have:
- Text screen endings. Sorry, but even some NES games moved beyond this.
- Recycled animations. Most of the animations that were there were good, but they re-used them too many times.
- No love for archers. Archery sucked, and was boring.. and it sucked.
