People lose steam after a while. There are plenty of other things to be worried/concerned about. Repaying student loans, getting a job, deciding what to have for dinner tonight, etc. 

I don't care, Dragon Age II is a day one purchase for me (and I won't come to complain on these boards unless it really, really sucks, which I highly doubt. 

[BLunted]

Yeah, my initial reaction to the announcement was rage, but it has subsided. Now I'll just have to wait and see if it's worth a buy.

You get to fight like a Spartan. I'm still wondering what that means. Spartans didn't use mages and operated in phalanx.

Marketing, I wouldn't read too much into it.  Remember the "This is the new ****" trailer? yeah, expect more of that, even if the game turns out to be about cuddling bunnies, expect more of that.

One side: I needz moar ME in my DA
Other side: No ME in our DA

False dilemma fallacy.

Spartans primarily used spears with a sword as secondary weaponry for when formation broke down. I guess on the plus side, people might actually get to see polearms in the game.

Little pink clouds are currently flowing through my head at the moment... Yeeeeee!

When I first read that, I immediately thought of Kolgrim and Gerard Butler. Now that we have a voiced protagonist that fights like a spartan, can we expect him to just go around yelling at everyone?

I dunno, looks like an army of Arcane Warriors to me...

Five Stages of Dragon Age 2:

Denial: At announcement, we didn't have all (or any facts), so of course it couldn't be bad.

Anger: Now we have facts that many do not find pleasing and express it.

Bargaining: Please, BioWare, you've already made ME!  We'll buy DA2 if you stop making it Shepard with swords!

Depression: They're not going to change anything.  They don't care.  All they want is the bottom line for the lowest common denominator.

Acceptance: It's going to be okay...the game will be so mediocre that parts that seemed plain in DA1 will shine with the brilliance of a thousand suns!

"Bioware deserves a slow death!"

"Deserves it! I daresay it does. Many Companys that live
deserve
death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it
to them Davasar?
Then do not be too eager to deal out death in
judgement. For
even the very wise cannot see all ends. I have not
much hope
that Mr. Gaider can be cured before he retires, but there is a
chance
of it. And he is bound up with the fate of this game.
My heart
tells me that he has some part to play yet, for good or
Ill,
before the end; and when that day comes, the hope of old school gamers
may rule
the fate of many - yours not least."

Bah what to do now then?



Weve got almost no info so far. Only way to keep entertained is either whine or create conspiration theories. Or both.

[Jestina]

We just accept the inevitable that DA is going to become another action RPG in a market already saturated with them. Eventually this craze will die like any other and maybe some company will come along with a good, thoughtful RPG again.

[Legion 2.5]

I like how they are doing the game. I hope they fix the voice system in there because it kept on glitching in origins. Speaking of origins, please don't get rid of the infinite money glitches and duplicate items.

Well all the action RPGs need to be released now. Because @ 2012 were getting Diablo III which will dominate action RPG field for another 10 years...

Yes we all probably had the same reaction when we saw what was happening, but after thinking it through I realized that this game won't be a bad thing.

My only concern is that I hope it will be still relevant to Origins.

They probably meant fight like the "300" Spartans. Aka break the line and slaughter everything in slow motion.

My initial reaction to Hawke was disappointment. Now, after having thought about it... I simply don’t care, DA2 holds about the same appeal as those other half-assed games that are released and then die off three days later.
 
If I wanted to play a game with a forced character I’d go with Witcher (which I couldn’t be arsed to finish) or Fable (which I didn’t bother with after the 1st time through the 1st game).

[Jestina]

Or Resident Evil.
