The game is great even if it is a little different from Origins. I honestly loved this game a lot. Currently working on my second and soon thrid playthough

I, too, am already working on my next playthrough. Thanks to the developers not padding the game's length, it's reasonable to want to play it again without feeling like "oh god here we go again." With Origins, I just couldn't replay it. Not immediately. The same with Bioware's other games, too. When they're too long, it's too much of an ordeal to play it again right away. But considering the sheer number of branches the story had, I will likely not get the same exact playthrough, and therefore a new experience to get -- so now it's as long as however many hours it took the game to complete times however many times I play it! :happy:

In all honesty I've played through Origins at least 5 times lol. It's one of, if not my favorite games. Dragon age 2 seems the same so far for me. Mass Effect I've only been able to get through about twice. Same with Mass Effect 2. But Bioware's games last me a lot longer then other games. I love their games(even though I've only played like 4 of them).

Hah, yeah, no I've played Origins many times! But not immediately. Over the years. It really wasn't super worth it to see different stuff, like this game is, though. Most of the branching was at the end, which is GOOD meaning you could just reload a save and see them all (maybe), but I think DA2 has more of a payoff for playing again, since you haven't seen all your responses to everything yet. KOTOR is one of my favorite RPGs, but even I couldn't bring myself to play it again immediately. There's a lot of tedious grinding in that game, same as DA:O, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. It's just a big time hog. xD

Only thing I thought wasnt well done was the ending. I guess I was expecting the grand ending of DA:O, it was ok.

[SwedishSammich]

they left the ending like this so they can continue the story in a possible DA 3

The archdemon was really nothing special, honestly. I felt nothing during that battle, really. Everyone knew it was evil, everyone was on my side, and whoever killed it would've been the bestest hero ever. That's pretty vanilla.

Did anyone else in their ending hear Varric say, "We had to leave The Champion's side eventually, except Isabela."
I was friends with Isabela but wasn't involved with her (Probably the only person in Thedas who hadn't been.)
Thoughts?

I got that too even though I romanced Anders and told him I was going to go into hiding with him. I think the reason I got to stay with Isabela is that I agree to be part of her pirate crew (despite saying BUT WHAT ABOUT ANDERS?? and she told me I could bring him along). I hope if there's going to be a DAIII and I play as Hawke again, they won't make me lose Anders. >E I invested too much time into staying dedicated to that mess.

Heyyy good point actually. I denied that request. (:

My biggest complaint is that there wasn't enough for me. MORE CONTENT BIOWARE. Even if it's an expansion, i want.

[BlastedLands]

yeah. the ending gives me hope to get some conclusions i wanted since finishing origins. i was a bit dissapointed by the way they were going, but now it suddenly makes sense.

Yes!

 I loved the ending to too  kirkwall was sacked do to my warrior hawke sideing with the mages to save my sister and Merrill and sailed away on isabella's  new boat it was  win i hope there is big X-pack for Da2 were we can  go to  and end it once and for all lol

[eye basher]

i had been wanting to kill anders since awakening finally and then to top it off i got to massacre a whole lot of those backstabbing mages best ending ever.

[AbsolutGrndZer0]

Your summons is on the way.

Seriously though, I agree with you totally.  I think they have a great setup for future DLC and Dragon Age 3.  We knew from the beginning that the WORLD WAS ON THE BRINK OF WAR and the Champion was at the center of the events that started it all.  Anyone that didn't see VERY BAD ENDING coming during the prologue.. well, I won't be rude.

[elferin91]

Is it weird that by the time i got to the end i was more interested what that idol is and what's it story then how the conflict will resolve?

[Sherbet Lemon]

I just finished my first playthrough like twenty minutes ago and I ABSOLUTELY loved the ending. I came to the forums looking to see what everyone thought and totally lost my buzz. Thought it was fantastic, loved Hawke, loved my family, and loved the tale. AHHH! WANT MOAR!!

I do want to past a proper review at some point this weekend. Have to let what happened germinate.

Yes! This is my sentiment exactly. I've avoided the internet since I was playing, and I came back all happy with the game to ... a 3.8 on metacritic? I used to disagree with Gaider hatin' on the fanbase. But damn it. I'm hating them soooo much right now.

[syn010110]

The ending battles to DA2 were really great.

The final fight was great, even though that stupid Fenris turned against me. Orsino's giant-monster form was a fun (but not very tense) battle, while Meredith was loads of fun and VERY TENSE. Definitely one of the best fights in the series--the rock wraith in the Deep Roads was more fun, I think, though.

(The Arishok fight was bullcrap, though... I died so many times just because I have to fight 20 guys and this one overpowered dude all at once with no geographical advantage...)

I loved the ending, even though it shattered my widdle heart. It hurt me because it loves me, right?

It's funny, up until the very end, I was anticipating starting a new playthrough immediately. But then the ending happened and I was like, "Man, I don't know if I want to put another Hawke through all that ****." I started a new playthrough anyway, though.

You are not the only one, though I hope that future expansions/DLC's continue Hawke's story with his/her love interest in some shape or form. It left me wanting more.

This is why I did not like the ending all that much, made me want more, and I really hope we get a continuation soon:pinched:

[syn010110]

If there is any justice in the world, my F Hawke gets pissed at everyone's stupidity, throws her hands up in the air, grabs Merrill and the dog and goes off to live in a hut in the middle of the forest and Thedas be damned!

[Spatchmo]

I loved and hated the ending because of Anders. When Anders blew up the chantry I was really pissed at him, I had romanced him and he used the player and completely destroyed any chance of anything ending diplomatically. I wanted to kill him but I didn't because I wanted to see the romance through.

Looking back on it though, I feel terrible for Anders because he felt pushed so hard and so far that he felt the only solution was to start a war. My initial reaction was to start over and have a Fenris romance be my main ending for whatever sequel / DLC that comes out, but I think I will still have the ending with Anders be my primary ending now. Someone needs to look after him, and keep him in check. Hopefully any continuation of the story will include him, even though I imagine many, many people killed him for what he did.

[OmegaBlue0231]

Loved it, much more than Origins ending.

[Fishy]

I just finished the game .Took me 44 hours.DA:2 was longer than DA:O(+ DLC) for me which is a good thing.
The Ending and the last fight was amazing .. It's was much more epic than the frigging Archdemon .

Im still curious about that relic power anyway . Gonna start another playthrough.
Bye
