I can totally understand the complaints from people who want the game to play like Baldur's Gate.  I can totally understand the complaints of people who want almost exactly the same thing as DA:O, just more of it.

But for me, it seems like all the things that they decided to change in DA2 directly addressed my problems with DA:O.  I hated the silent protagonist.  I hated the non-uniformity of my dialogue choices, and vastly prefer the wheel w/icon solution.  I hated the slow, shuffling combat with no ability to target and attack the nearest enemy (I love the "r" keybind in DA2!).  I never used the Top Down view as it made everything feel more "gamey" and less immersive.  I hated micomanaging other party members, and like that the "normal" difficulty is described as you focusing on making your protagonist the best it can be.

Really the only change I don't like is that you only can be Human.  I mean, this isn't really a big deal, but I feel like DA:O pulled off the immersion really well despite allowing 3 different races.  I was a Dalish elf, and they managed to never skip a beat in terms of addressing that, as it came into play with Velanna in DA:A, and also in the Witch Hunt expack as we went back to the original mirror from the Origin story.  If the trade-off is losing the voice over of the main character though, I would make that trade in a heartbeat.

That didn't sound very convincing. Needs more smilies.

Heh, well, I knew they had to be making it for someone. Just not me. I'm sure that for every person like me who really dislikes the gameplay, etc, they'll pick up others. I doubt we'll ever see another game that I like as well as DA:O.

As I said before, Bioware may lose some fans with DA2 but they will win WAY more new ones. In the end, this is what matters most. Video games like any other entertainment form is a business!

tho give Bio credit for trying they may lose fans here but in a sence they wont cause those lost fans will still play DA:O and maybe come to like DA2 as for me i like the faster combat style as for the rest of the changes it seems they just got lazy and took ME/ME2 systems and made them Dragon Age:mellow:

if thats true op, i wish u were never born

and i doubt this game will earn many new fans, if u like rpgs u like them, if u dont u dont

[Raphael diSanto]

I love RPGs, that's why I love DA2, because the streamlined inventory system and the new dialogue choices allowme to focus on the roleplaying. And not the roll-playing.

If inventory management is your idea of a good time, then i'm sure Wal-Mart has some openings for a stock manager in their local store.

I'm with you. I've been a big fan of BioWare RPG for over 20 years. They haven't steered me wrong yet, and DA2 looks like another success to me.

Wow, really? You're going to wish another human being out of existence because they happen to like a video game that you don't? Also, what the hell is up with all the 'u's?

[Rimfrost]

I'm also exited about DA2 I think it has a good chance of being better then DA:O. Guess we will start to find out next week!

[Azrailx]

I don't understand what is people's obsession with frustrating menus and managing inconsequential things.

[Cloaking_Thane]

I agree with OP, Origins is still a great game and I will replay it occasionally, but DA2 addressed the majority things I felt DAO could have done better

[PsychoBlonde]

I feel pretty much the same way. I was looking for a game that takes place over a longer time period. I was looking for a more personal story, not another retread of save-the-world. I was tired of waddling like a duck through combat.

It'd be cool if we can play other races, but eh, I don't miss it. I thought the elves kind of got the short end of the stick in Origins (unless they were mages)--the human and dwarven Origins were so much more interesting. The elves have such a one-sided conflict currently that they don't interest me. They need more facets.

Its not an obsession, more an aquired appreciation for subtle complexities. But yes by all means deride anyone who falls in to that camp.

Yep. I'm sure that the Call of Duty fanbase will be on this like white on rice.

... Or maybe they'll just turn their eyes to Battlefield 3.

I feel like its been made for me too

that was like my 3rd thank you very much mr sir

[Brawne]

Exactly the same reasons why I never bought DA:O and why I'm feeling pretty damn good about buying DA 2.
