nothing against you crimson, im just getting tired of the "Game X has feature Y so Game Z should have feature Y!!!" arguement. If it was originally thought of as an option in DA2 let it occur, I just do not want the devs to focus on this aspect now and mess up the experience.


we do not use that argument to justify NG+'s existence in DA2. Thaty argument is used to counter other arguments like "DA2 cannot have NG+ because there are plot sensitive items" and such....

Also, ME2 had an issue with NG+ because  they hacked away half of it but did not fix the scaling system accordingly

Jus tout of curiousity, what exactly was wrong with ME2 NG+? I saw it mentioned earlier but don't know the details.



in any case, do you think messaging Mike Laidlaw would get an answe for you? DG is apparently not the least bit interested in the topic, but Mike at least should know.

The biggest issue i had with NG+ for ME2 was that you did not get much of a bonus at all for having it...All your enemies scale with you so you are not overpowered. Not only that but you lose the upgrades you would normally have against lvl 30 enemies and are at a much tougher predicament. It was actually better to import from ME1 than to import from Me2, sure you lose some abilities at the beginning but you gain more bonuses in total (more money, higher paragon/renegade score, decent lvl)

It is just odd that they will not comment with a definitive Yes or No response instead of the vague responses we are getting. We are two months before the game comes out...they should know the answer to this question now.

EDIT: Sorry for the ninja Crimson...I feel great now Posted Image

I might......I dunno I kinda revere Bioware and I feel personally bothering them should be done only in dire moments (like when I had to ask help to Priestly because my account was locked)

as for ME2, well, they allowed you to NG+ but they removed -all- your upgrades while leaving you all the weapons and armor (not sure why)....so when you played insanity your enemies were fully scaled but your team was nerfed so all the way up to horizon the game had a steeper difficulty then expected even on insanity. After Horizon tho you were fine

quite true.

apparently the only problem was time constraints, but at least they thought of it. That makes me happy, maybe next time then

I'm sure you can just use the console to level up if you want to. I'm not claiming I didn't turn clicking on 'We have the blood but not the scrolls' repeatedly into an art form, but you wanna know why I never even considered the existence of a console?

*looks around*

*whispers* I actually thought Dragon Age was so much more awesome than any other RPG I had ever played that it couldn't possibly be modified just like that. True story.

That was very nice of Mike to tell you. It's unfortunate there's no NG+, but at least now you know.

Though, perhaps you shouldn't post PMs people send you.

I thinik that's an occupational hazard for bioware employees. They should be expecting that their every word will be picked apart, analyzed, interpreted, misinterpreted, quoted and misquoted to death.Posted Image
