Technology Tell writes, "Query: If each of the three Dragon Age games took place in different fantasy worlds, would we sense any connection between them? If Dragon Age: Origins was set in Robert Jordan’s The Wheel of Time, Dragon Age II was set in Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea, and Dragon Age: Inquisition was set in Terry Goodkind’s The Sword of Truth, would we be able to detect any familiarity between the three games? True, each has that distinct Bioware feel: the dialogue choices, the focus on character interaction, the trio of companions that trail behind you wherever you go, the familiar raft of Bioware bugs that endure no matter how many times they change the engine. I suppose the question I’m really asking is, if the consistent ideology underlying the series —the chantry, the templars, the darkspawn and gray wardens and dwarves and elves and arls — enrich the story or weigh it down."
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.
Amazon announced a partnership with Electronic Arts to deliver even more free games and in-game content to Prime Gaming subscribers.
Amazon announced the Prime Gaming gifts for the month of November: Control Ultimate Edition, Dragon Age Inquisition, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and more.
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
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
It's free to anyone who has already been paying. IDK why people need to split hairs.
How does Prime Gaming work? Do you keep the games, or is it only as long as you have Prime?
lol Nice distraction from how they're now charging people to increase viewership. It's "just an option." /wink lol
If anything, i think the underlying societal ideas like elven racism/elven isolationism, dwarven caste system/topsider chasm, orlais elitism, ferelden human ambition weren't represented enough in Inquisition. The darker undertone of origins which showcased a world built on inequality had to make way for the all-uniting, all-accepting Inquisition. In the end (Spoilers) even the few opponents who choose their own ambitions over helping you, turn out to simply be seduced by the one great enemy and epitome of evil.
In Origins, war brought out the worst in people (much like in real life, the bad folks find ways to take advantage and the good ones become monsters to fight the evil that threatens them).
In Inquisition, with some convincing through Josephine or Leliana, everyone rallies to the Inquisitor. I felt like the game was really about fighting a) bandits and b) the aforementioned great evil, while in Origins there were warring factions and oppression in everything, even before the blight.
