 I fear that my initial impression of them abandoning the principles of Dragon Age (classic RPG experience, Choices, Dark Fantasy, etc) will turn out true.

That the fans tear it apart without giving it a chance.

Add me to the list of people that don't want Dragon Age to be like Mass Effect.  Mass Effect is great but it's its own thing.  Dragon Age should stay as a spiritual successor to the Baldur's Gate games and Mass Effect should continue to be Mass Effect.

My HOPE for DA2 is they will refine the RPG mechanics and stick w/ it being an RPG and not succumb to the temptation to save time and money by gutting the RPG and having a pretty action game w/ lots of nice cutscenes

[jableskage]

that the console is put before the true RPG facilitators here... the PC!

[gunnerkite1985]

I really enjoyed DAO, a lot more than i thought i would, and I really hope they don't take away too much of the RPG elements like in ME2, infact don't take away anything! Also i hope the choices i made in DAO are carried over into DA2, even if the companions and/or main character aren't (assuming, of course, that they are still alive).

My biggest fear is that the combat gets "merged" with the action genre, a la ME and "RPG/Shooter" mechanics. Leave that mix to itself, and leave DA:O combat mechanics to itself.

well said. ME2 was not a RPG game

That is odd because the party dynamics, the dialog, and so forth were all up to the standard.  Only the combat was slightly different.

But I guess that is all Bioware games are?  Combat?  I play for the dialog and character ineraction so I guess they can make the rest of their games non-RPGs if that is all they are.

I like the combo of Character, story, combat, RPG mechanics the whole schebang.  You know, like Baldur's Gate 2
I know a lot of people only care about cutscenes and pretty graphics, but games like BG2 had EVERYTHING

DAO was close, it was the start of a 3D BG2 lite.  I just don't want them to Mass Effect 2-ify it.

ME1 had some shaky RPG mechanics, me and many others expected them to IMPROVE the RPG mechanics, instead they through them in the trash and made Gears of War 4 with better cutscenes.

Hahaha, exactly.

Freakin' ME2, I hyped it to all my friends and now they don't trust me anymore lol :innocent:

That Hawke is fully voiced. Just...no.

And of course, RPG elements being replaced by "lolz actionioness" is a huge fear.

And that "most pwoerful personin Thedas" doesn't become "lulz you become a god". No thanks, I don't want to feel like I am that much better than everyone else. The nice thing about Origins is that it had great NPCs that don't make you feel like you are that superior.

Interesting, I can go with spiritual successor... I would like my choices to translate into DA2 though, even if it's just the major ones like templars or mages, etc, if only for some continuity between the two games. it wouldn't be too hard to put in references, the odd cutscene here or there...

I dread the inevitable complaints and flame wars when the game is finally released.

if it is released as a console ME2 clone then you are right to be worried....

[blu_skye]

That it will be anything like Awakening.

Perhaps you should look into recruiting an anti-flame war/complain desk army? A ninja army?  A ninja-pirate army, even!

I'm worried about it going in an anime style(concept art), Yuck!

Hopefully I have nothing to worry about, I guess I'll know soon enough.

An unlikely fear you have there....I see no evidence of that being an issue.

I hope your right. I loved the first game, one of my favorites, and would play the second either way, but everything seems anime influenced anymore. Not to mention the new Dragon Age/FUNimation anime film, I hope I'm just being paranoid.

Looking forward to the trailer next month.

THIS ^^

I mean what was the point in saying "we" could transfer our characters like in ME2?

[OnKeLDead]

My worst fear? That Morrigan and all the other chars from DA:O will turn into marginal figures. But ... I'm already disappointed with the fact that I'm not able to play my char from the first part again.

I totally agree that I do not want them to make it like Mass Effect and I loved Baldur's Gate 2 and the entire BG series.

I thought they did improve the RPG elements in the context of the combat being a shooter.  You want RPG elements the impact combat in that environment and that was exactly what they did.  Do I prefer pure RPGs like DA?  Sure.  But I enjoyed ME2 and ME1 for what they were.  I just think it is absurd to think they tossed anything in the trash.  But I never played any other shooters so I have no clue, nor do I care, what Gears of War 4 is.

Also where were the cutscenes?  I thought it was dialog and character interaction and generally I am here for the dialog and character interaction.

[Tharanir]

Greatest fear is that they leave out Morrigan of course!



People who don't want DR in canon - shame on you! It's the best ending out of the ones I experienced (I think nearly all, except dying).

That the forums will be filled with whining, complaining, and worrying from now until the release of the game.

Awakenings is my fav Dragon Age    Call me crazy but I loved the new abilities and half of the characters.  I also enjoy higher levels better than levels 1-10 and NO FADE ZONE

But that's predictable.

Fear of the unknown and vague is more legitimate.

My biggest fear has already come true, that the fans wont give it a chance. You know what it wasn't that long ago that I was reading forum posts reading Shephard is dead, what happened to importing him into ME2. Now I know ME2 is a sore subject with fans but my point ti that they did allow us to import Shephard.



So lets give Bioware a chance to release real info about the game and not a brief summary of what to expect. Also yes they did say that the combat will be different but I don't think they will go with an action game style combat but stay it an RPG style combatr but modify it a little bit from DAO. Afterall just a few tweaks to the combat makes it a new combat system.



One more thing on the subject of DA2 I don't care if they don't allow importation of data, though not saying if they do it is a bad thing, but either way it isn't a gamebreaker. As well as those out there who are saying 2 years is to short a time to make a true sequel to DAO. They had DAO completed long before launch. Who isn't to say besides Bioware themselves that DA2 wasn't already mostly done when Awackening came out.
