Yes, opinions make me cringe too.
Please go troll another thread. These are peoples opinions, if you don't like them don't go to forums, guess what, all forums are opinionated. The game fails in many aspects, enjoying the game or not does not change many of them. The story and feel of the game is subjective but the glaring failings are present no matter how you view the game overall. Reused assets, random "bad guy" spawns that have no place in the story other than a few "we really should clean up the streets as night" comments. I mean seriously, you are a party of 4, all armed and all, I would assume by now fairly well known to be badass and they STILL attack you? Weaksauce. Now if you had something that some cartel wanted and they were mercenarys hired to kill you then thats a little better but generic thugs after your purse? Why would they even bother 20 of them risking thier lives for 4 purses?.
I won't get into comparisons with DA:O again, that seems to be a sore point for a lot of DA2 fans. Suffice it to say that even as a game that has nothing to do with the DA franchise this game fails on many levels. What the problem on the forums is though is that many people feel differently about said failings. Some enjoyed the game dispite them, others thought a lot of them were good things and others like myself could not see beyond them and enjoy the less fail elements. You are pretty much railroaded down the plot line in places then left to your own devices for long periods in between. Certain events are set in stone, only your reasons for doing them are up to you and while yes that can be kinda cool if done right, it really isn't in DA2. You are often left with the feeling of wtf? I tried to take the peacefull route and they attack me anyway with "insert lame disconnected reason".
The friend that let me play the game has since finished it and asked me if I wanted his copy seeing as he was so pissed with it he never wanted to see it again. I told him no and he proceded to throw it out of his 6th floor appartment window laughing that that was the most fun he had had with DA2. Now, my friend is a little extreme and has more money than sense but the fact remains that I didn't even want the game for free, come to think of it I sould have at least gotten his install key so I could register it and post on the "owners only boards" ah well, no big. There are many people who like the game, that doesn't make them idiots or simpletons, they have different tastes in what they want from thier games and that is fine. The people on these boards that I can't stand are the ones that continually bash those of us who don't think "DA2 is like the best game evah". We don't like it, will never like it and its not because we didn't give it a chance. I don't go around saying that people who like the game are stupid nor do I insult people who stand up for it so why do I keep finding myself having to defend my comments and my persona from what I can only call unprovoked rude attacks? I have catagoricly stated on many occasions that my comments are solely my own opinion yet less than 2 or 3 posts down find some misquote of something I said claiming I should stop stating my opinion as fact? Whats with that lol.
Anyway, I do like David's past work and hope he returns to better form for his next project and more importanly I hope he is given the creative freedom needed to tell a good story again.
