Dragon Age 2 fans: How to transition to Inquisition

Paul Verhoeven of MMGN: Dragon Age: Inquisition hits soon. And when it hits, it'll hit hard. EA and Bioware, tangled as they are like an unctuous Yin and Yang, have the eyes of the gaming world fixed on them.

So what can you do to prepare for what is undoubtedly going to be a gargantuan, glorious time-sink? How can you reacclimatise yourself before returning to Thedas? Here are some foolproof ways to make the transition.

Assume the walking position then go on a mission.

Ooh that first point is just... it's bait really. As if the reused envorinments were the only glaring flaw. I would've gotten over that so quick. (Combat, customization and preset human lead character were more glaring, in case you've forgotten ;) )

That said the keep is fun, definitely will get you back into it.

"The story was top notch, the companions, their dialogue, personalities, interactions, backstories and voice acting was unparalleled, and Hawke was a deeply compelling hero. "

Uh ? the story was very mediocre , didnt make sense half the time within the context of the DA universe , and was full of plot holes . And hiding behind the idea that parts wrong with it are most likely Varric's imagination doesnt hold up (hell they didnt even use that fully to its advantage to explain the issues away)

And amidst the character "so good" he's going on about , they butchered a character Anders , that was fine in the DA0 Expansion . And no , it's not even about making him a gay optional romance (even if they mishandled some parts of that but that's another debate ) , but his role in the major events of the game .

But by all mean try to revise history and pretend the only flaws were the repetitive level designs .

The game didnt have many positive aspects . Mediocre to crap storyline , bad pacing , badly used characters (for the most part) , bad level design , mediocre graphics , questionable cartoony redesign of the world and its species , bland and hollow gameplay , no customisation and no real decisional impact with the choices (remember how picking a side makes you fight it ultimately anyway ?)

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.

The quality of these free games has been awesome. Before anyone says they are not free I was already giving Amazon $6 a month for prime shipping and video this isn't why I pay for my subscription

Teflon02908d ago

Still technically paying for it, even if it wasn't your intent. They've been giving out games with Twitch prime, they just changed the name. It's the same sub as that was. If you weren't aware, great. But you're paying for it.

That being said, I don't personally care. For me as long as you're willing to pay that for 1 service and get more. I personally take it as free. Like prime video, music though the prime version is trash, and all the Twitch benefits are all free to me because I didn't care about those when I got it. Just comes with it.

Only noted because that's technically wrong as a defense to that argument, whether I'm on yourside with the initial statement lol

mkis007908d ago

It's free to anyone who has already been paying. IDK why people need to split hairs.

TinkerNation908d ago

How does Prime Gaming work? Do you keep the games, or is it only as long as you have Prime?

Germaximus908d ago

lol Nice distraction from how they're now charging people to increase viewership. It's "just an option." /wink lol
