Why I Hope Dragon Age 3 Is A Lot Like Dragon Age 2

So what does Dragon Age have going for it, and what does it need to change?

A LIVING LEGEND4390d ago

One can only hope that 3 is nothing like 2 and that fewer than 7 people exist that genuinely liked 2.

"Why I Hope Dragon Age 3 Is A Lot Like Dragon Age 2"

someone actually likes recycled (and uncompleted)maps, fake choices, un-customizable party and useless loot.

^^^^

Yeah, a lot of people do love the Mass Effect series, don't they?

*rolls eyes*

I don't understand why DA2 gets all the flak while ME2 and ME3 got a free pass. I guess it's because you can shoot teh gunz in ME.

DA2 threw away everything that was great about DA1 & gave us a dumbed down hack n slash game.

rdgneoz34390d ago

I loved the first one. The second confused me as to why they would do that to the series to "improve it"...

synchroscheme4390d ago

I won't say that Dragon age 2 was a bad game, but I didn't feel that it was a good one either. And it certainly didn't live up to the Dragon Age name.

I can still remember that one recycled cave dungeon...

Lol I hear u on the burnt image of the one and only dungeon u had to embark through 100 times. Whole game felt like rushed, rehashed, dumbed down trash compared to the first. Had to force myself to beat it with one class and traded it in right away before it lost its tradin value for sucking so bad.

Dragon Age: Inquisition Retro Review – A Nostalgic Leap Short Of Legendary

Dragon Age: Inquisition, developed by BioWare, is the third installment in the cherished Dragon Age series. It represents a major evolution from its predecessor, Dragon Age II, incorporating elements that were well-loved in the original Dragon Age: Origins but also introducing new features that stand on their own. While Inquisition improves upon Dragon Age II in many respects, it falls short of the exceptional standards set by Origins.

EA Made Dragon Age and Mass Effect DLC Free On PC By Retiring The BioWare Points System

Immersed Gamer writes: "In order to replace the oppressive BioWare Points system, EA is making a large portion of the Mass Effect and Dragon Age DLC catalogs free for PC users.

For those of you blissfully unaware, EA and BioWare employed a payment system called BioWare Points on PC to pay for DLCs for titles like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. While PC gamers have been struggling with BioWare point’s unfair conversion rates and extremely scarce and cost-detrimental sales.

Console players have been allowed to purchase content in pieces through the appropriate Sony and Microsoft shops. For real money, and not BioWare monopoly bucks. In turn, console players missed out on some DLC content, such as Mass Effect 2 pre-order bonuses that have been repackaged into a DLC pack."

Great response to Ubisoft and their disgusting behavior. Ubisoft decide to take away DLC from people who paid for it, while EA give it for free to everyone when they realize their system sucks. Who would have thought that EA of all companies would be showing Ubisoft how it should be done (even if this is EA fixing their own mistakes as well).

Mobis-New-Nest649d ago

What goes around comes around and I promise you, Ubisoft will see their actions blow back on them when their diminishing sales numbers and stock taking a hit downward. That's the only way a company learns when they decide to be reactive instead of proactive.

All BioWare Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "There was a time that BioWare games were the biggest deal in gaming. The Canadian developer’s legacy of all-time classics is well known. Mass Effect, Knights of the Old Republic, and Baldur’s Gate are some of the biggest names in gaming.

While BioWare’s quality has fallen off lately, there’s no denying the quality of titles in their portfolio. That’s why we’re going to dive in and rank every BioWare game from worst to best. By every, I do mean every BioWare game, even the ones you completely forgot about!"

autobotdan808d ago

Wow to think at one point in their history they made a Sonic the Hedgehog game..crazy

chicken_in_the_corn808d ago

Anthem is crazy underrated. I really enjoyed it. ME1 is Bioware's best imo

I actually put quite a bit of hours into Anthem but i dont think its underrated. It was a huge mess, server issues, gameplay issues, crashes, no endgame loop, too few different enemies, uninteresting gear. too few dungeons.

It for sure had potential and if they could have managed to keep the same gameplay of the classes but without the rest of the issues, this game could have been huge, but in the state in which it launched it was such a letdown. They partly fixed some of the issues, but it took too long. A grinding game like this needs to hook players from day 1.
