Those last two boss battles made me question the sanity of the dev department, Meredith's battle was understandable and inevitable, but what the sod was up with those statues?! Most of the statues seemed unnecessary, well save for the templar ones and maybe the larger slave statues but after a while I was hoping the battle would end soon. Orsino's battle seemed unnecessary in the first place whether you're with the templars or the mages. He didn't even seem that bad of a guy through out the game but to become that which he hated, a blood mage? Besides that, I was rather content with the ending given all the wtf moments I had through out my playthroughs.

Statues coming to life only makes sense if the design team had been shooting some LSD. I don't blame the dev team per se, but the design team, yes.

As for Orsino, I think they just wanted to basically say both templars and mages can be evil (following up O supporting the blood mage in act 2 that killed your mother.)

^ Wouldn't it actually be the writing team? I suspect the statues coming to life must have been in the script? Although I admit I'm not 100% on the process so not sure who comes up with these things. xD

i don't know.
Story wise it is fine. it is the how it presented and put into context for the playthrough that sucks.
It is not unlike ME3 original ending. Only in a few playthrough does it makes sense.
for exemple
The rivalry path with anders makes is fine. the friendship is really disjointed so it is much mich less effective.

if you are siding with the mage, Orsino losing it is fine in itself.
but "we are all doomed, let go massey fergusson because there is 3 poxy templars coming". templars of the same sort of that we have been mincing for 45 minutes.
need a bit more explanation or it feels contrived.
