 For me  the fade Sections of DAO were among the most boring, the only plusses being the   stat boneses you could earn.

I actually fell aspleep during the circle fade section.. twice  in separate pkaythroughs

Does anyone have good/bad memories of the Fade sections in DAO and awakeking and are you looking forward to or dreading a trip back there in DA2 if it's announced as a location?

[Rogue Unit]

Do not want more Fade.

[ViSeiRa]

If it resembles the fade as we see and play it in Awakening then I do want to go to the fade again... if it's like the fade in Origins then please no.

[obnoxiousgas]

Ahahaha, no.



... We're going to be going back to the fade, aren't we?

[lv12medic]

Well... I thought someone somewhere sometime said the Fade will be in DA2. It's supposed to be improved upon though. I hope so.



And how could you fall asleep with finger-on-chalkboard music and eye-pain inducing blur effects going on? Oh right... we were... *yaaawwwnnnn*... fighting a, what was it nowwwwww, a Sloth Demon. Yes, a sloth demon. Night night...

If it's like DAO's Fade? No.

If it's like DAA's Fade? Yes.

[Dave of Canada]

Awakening fade: Yes please.

I Agree 100%

[Jzadek72]

Please god no! No! God no!

Huh. I liked the Circle Tower fade sequence a lot from a roleplaying perspective. It was a chance for the PC to come unto his/her own, fighting and surviving without the rest of the party. Sure, playing it for the tenth time got a little boring, but then so did everything else. The Awakening fade sequence was less interesting, mostly because there was absolutely zero challenge there, but then again, that can be said about the whole expansion.

DO NOT WANT!!!!!!!

[Heimdall]

DAA's Fade with far better prisons if they go into the whole gilded dream cage thing they tried in DAO? Yes

[yogolol]

As most said already, Awakening fade was fine, Origins fade was boring.

It was fun the first time through, it's essentially just a bunch of fetch quests if you want the stat boosts though.

I agree with this.

The drab, blurry color of the DAO Fade made it feel like everything was exactly the same, which added to the already tedious nature of the quest.

It is probably the hardest part of DAO for me to replay. Rivaled only by the first parts of the Deep Roads.

Wasn't really big on the fade. For such a dreamlike place I felt awfully restricted. I wouldn't mind if the fade segments were even more radically different from the real world than they were. The shape-shifting for instance in DA1 was a fun aspect but I'd like it to be a completely bonkers segment if we do go back.

The strange thing is, the Origins Fade part was somewhat interesting - the first time. After that it became very annoying. Compared to the Fade, the Deep Roads are just an overly long dungeon crawl, I can live with that.

I haven't played Awakening yet but I played through the Fade part of DA:O the other day and I have no wish to ever do that again.

[UndercoverDoctor]

Worst part in the entire game.



Every time I start a new game up I think about how I have to eventually go to the fade and dread it.

[Malanek]

The fade allows the designers enormous freedom. Anything they want to do can probably be justified. The problem with the fade section in origins was there was just too much back tracking while at the same time taking you away from an important quest. The connor bit was better because the reason you enter the fade was pro-active. The level design wasn't that flash though, but at least it was quick.



In awakening I don't think the actual level design was anything special but the story f the baroness was pretty cool and integrating it with the real world was a nice touch.

[Reaverwind]

NO, just NO.

[RinpocheSchnozberry]

Whoever goes, I hope they stay there. Then there won't be any more Fade in DA3.



Not that the idea was bad... it just ran looooong.

I feel like a weirdo every time I say this but the Fade was my favorite section ; it was challenging, not repetitive, the "Fantastic Four" gameplay was awesome, and I loved fghting the different demons and looking for all the bonuses. The companion interactions also say a lot about them. It was long indeed but felt epic (and I mean it, no matter how overused the word epic is). Once I got out of there and saw the Sloth demon fall, I just had to highfive myself. I'd love to go back there but not if it's to do the same thing ; searching a way to the Black City however would be awesome (though I doubt that will happen in DA2).
