After all the resounding praise I always gave DA:O, in every case, I assumed you would do right by me because DA:O was ALREADY a throw-back game, which relied on tried and true gameplay mechanics, rather than flashy battles.

Imagine my surprise to find out that DA2 is in fact, Dragon Effect, and doesn't even pick up where the events of DA:O left off, it actually starts in the midst them.  What a slap in the face.  It makse no sense.  It's like you guys are trying to make my decisions unimportant, setting it up so the later decisions I made could not POSSIBLY impact the games beginning.  DA:O was such a run away hit with RPG fans, why would you guys tweak it like this?

Really, REALLY seems like this is a bad dream. I'm not even kidding. If I had a nightmare about the DA sequel, today would be it.

I beleive this can easily be considered the worst thing to happen in Dragon Age history, including the Blight.

I'm leaving the forums now, and I doubt I'll ever come back.  All I wanted was to continue my story.  All I got was Shepard with a new name and a sword.

In fact, Bioware.  I'm gonna start dissing you guys as sellouts to my friends when they ask me about DA2.  I'll tell them "Nah it wont be any good." "Why?" they will ask, and I will reply "Did you enjoy Mass Effect?" "No, not nearly as much as DA:O"... "Well, they are making it much more like ME than DA:O this time around."  At this point, my DnD game hungry friends will surely frown, a moment of sadness passing as they greive for the game that could have been, but will not be.

Yes Bioware, I'm going to talk BADLY about you for this, by drawing comparisons between ME and DA to gamers who realize ME is a Halo rehash with HP.  Consider any personal reviews of DA2 I do to be completely negative. And beleive me, I will get asked eventually, especially as release draws near.  It should be something a little new to you guys, word of mouth attempts to disparage your games release.  Your fans are always so cuddley and happy with you.  It's about time you guys got the end of the stick the rest of the industry gets from alienated fans.  The ****ty one.

Why does everyone keep calling it Dragon Effect?





Surely Mass Age: Mike Hawk is a better title?

Sorry you feel that way. We appreciate your loyalty and understanding, as well as the fact that you stuck it out long enough to get more than a cursory view of the game before rendering your decision. Hopefully you'll give the game a try when it comes out-- if not, happy trails!

Nope Mass Age sucks, Dragon Effect is a much better name.

Also why is everyone calling Hawke Mike? Did Bioware reveal Hawke's canon name (like John Shepard) or is it just a forum joke that has spread like wildfire?

Say Mike Hawke out loud, fast. If you don't get it the first time, say it a few more times until it dawns on you.

Why do people always make big deals out of nothing? Until you actually play the game you cant complain. You could think your going to hate it and then you end up loving it and just looking like a huge ass in the end. You have no idea how the game plays so why assume its horrible before you even have a chance to test that theory.

Those icons represent the fact that you own a COPY of the game. Bioware empoyees own part of the ACTUAL GAME.

David owns Shepard's bathroom, and Sten's cage, IIRC.

Mr. Gaider, now that you're here, would you mind telling us if the Dark Ritual ending of Origins has indeed been canonized? 'Tis a matter a great many users would appreciate being cleared up.

That sounds like something you'd need to ask the Vatican. :)
