1) It seems the people, me included, who prefer no-VO is the minority in thsi debate, for it's already confirmed VO will bein DA2 <_< all we can do is hope BioWare changes their minds.
Bioware happens to prefer the dialogue wheel, I think. It's why they added it to their Star Wars MMORPG.
That being said, there is a very vocal group of people that identify as "traditional" RPG fans that are a huge forum-going (though not neccesarily market segment-wise) population that really, really dislike and want to marginalize people that do like ME style games.
The action guys think you're a loser nerd for liking ME with all the talking, and the RPG crowd thinks you're a twitch jock that can't handle a game that isn't dumbed down. If there are people out there that think like I do, I haven't seen it yet. Though this forum has a lot more than I've ever seen, so maybe there's hope for me.2) Maybe your right here, but wouldn't it be smoother to transition to DA2 then DA3 with jsut being the Warden or another character with DA:O feautures (keep no-VO, combat system same, etc) with just little tweaks? I think this was it will be very well received rather than these debates and arguemtns, but it's just my opinion.
The issue is, if they've already started designing the game, then there have been resources invested that would be lost 100% if the game is scrapped. If they're recycling the engine, who knows how much of the game would already be ready?
That's why I think it DA2 is as it is.
That being said, I think it's success depends completely on the relative # of the fanbase that is hardcore traditional RPG. If they made up a significant portion of DA2 sales, and they don't rebuy, that may affect the bottom line, since there isn't a FPS hook.3) Maybe you can't, which I understand, but players like me wanted, expected DA to be it's own franchise away from ME. ME and DA:O have two different fanbases, why merge them together when they are perfectly fine seperate? Expect the thunder before the storm.
When you think one way is objectively better...
I do get the dissapointment, though.Anathemic wrote...
4) We say that Hawke will outdo the Warden since BioWare is focusing their attention on Hawke, and if Hawke doesn't outdo the Warden what was the point of making DA2 centered on Hawke rather than the Warden?
The blurb about Hawke says it's all a character piece about how Hawke becomes the Hero of Kirkwall. Podunk down in the Free Marches isn't saving the world. In fact, they're explicit that Hawke doesn't save the world or do anything like that.
1)Yes BioWare prefers the dialogue wheel, that's why in DA:O , I and many other players, loved the game because it was different and unique from other BioWare titles, but it seems (like I said before) a one-time thing now that DA2 is going with the mainstream features.
Ahh from what I see people who like ME want DA2 simaler to ME yes? While players from DA:O want DA2 to be simaler to DA:O yes? Seems liek the palyers who absoulutley loved DA:O is getting sold out to the ME fans.. the minority is a minority and we are vocal because we are being surpressed.
2)True, it is high unlikely they will scrap it, but still we persist because we hope we can we heard, probally not, but that's what you get for being the minority
3) Yes dissapointment indeed...
4) Again if Hawke doesn't outdo the Warden, what's the purpose of making the sequel Hawke and not the Warden? Is it not logical to tell the story with the most heavier base-plot?
