Do you like any of the following games?Diablo 2, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, Fable, pretty much any Zelda game, Dungeons and Dragons: Shadows over Mystara, River City Ransom, Ninja Gaiden, Dynasty Warrior, Devil May Cry...
and don't mind DA2 playing somewhat like them?

River City Ransom? I loved that game. What IF DA2 played somewhat like that.

The brothers Hawke, a pair of Lothering school students, run into some trouble with the Darkspawn gang. While trying to stop the thugs from vandalizing their home, Carver's girlfriend is kidnapped by the evil kingpin "Archdemon". So the two brothers set out to Kirkwall city, cleaning up the mean streets and along the way, learn the ancient grey warden martial arts like stone hands and dragon feet.......

Wait a minute.....I think I'm onto something......Its not too late! maybe I can persuade Mike....

"BARF!"

Ok I was under the impression that DA2 has different attacks mapped to different buttons (on console) which means one X for 1 attack, Y for something different etc so to do a combo you mash buttons as opposed to more classic style RPG's.

Oh and with the Witcher, at least you know you are going to get a simplified game. It is not an RPG per se but the combat and gameplay is heavily based on choice and planning. You need alchemy to survive and have to balance potions and toxicity etc. It may be simpler but there is still a lot to sort out.

In fact, DA2 on the console feels like DA:O on console in this regard - the difference being that the special attacks are generally faster and more responsive. If you played the 360 or PS3 versions of Origins, you could map special attacks to any of the face buttons and then 'button mash', as it were. Was it the best strategy? No, not really - it might get you through on easier difficulties at the beginning of the game but eventually you'd have to start playing tactically on the harder ones, generally around when you got to the Korcari Wilds

It's not something new to DA2. Mapping attacks to face buttons was a feature of DA:O console versions.

EDIT: De-ambiguified some wording so people don't think I'm saying DA2 and DA:O are the same on consoles.

What about on PC? DA:O was an absolute joy to play on the PC. The combat was great. All the video's I am seeing are for console so as a PC'er I really have no idea how it is going to work on that.

I would say that if you enjoyed DA:O on the PC, you will probably enjoy DA2 on the PC. They are not radically different games. It's certainly more responsive and, in some cases, faster - but you can still pause, issue tactical orders and then unpause to let your party carry those orders out, much like DA:O.

Of course, I'm not exactly an unbiased source, so bear that in mind. I feel as though we haven't deviated greatly from what we did with DA2, but some people might find things like closing attacks and faster animation speeds to greatly change the complexion of the game. I wouldn't necessarily agree with those people, but until they see PC gameplay I can certainly understand why they might be concerned.
