As expected, it's not pretty. 

But it's still laugh-out-loud hilarious. (And this coming from a guy who loves the game)

Considering his video review of Dragon Age: Origins wasn't very flattering either, I'm guessing he's not a fan of this particular series. 

EDIT: I know Yahtzee's a comedy reviewer and the whole point of his reviews are to slam games, even if occasionally he falls in love with a game, it's probably not the game most people play. The purpose of this thread IS NOT TO START A WAR BETWEEN THOSE WHO LIKE IT AND THOSE WHO DON'T. That's irrelevant. This is a funny review from a funny guy.

Isn't part of the amusement from those "reviews" how he slams games? All games, even the great ones like DA2.

[MonkeyLungs]

Sometimes he actually likes games.

[Galad22]

Hero fiddles around for a while...

Well said.

[Rockpopple]

He does slam universally acclaimed games too, but it seemed to me that he didn't like DA II. But like I said, he was equally brutal in his original review of Dragon Age: Origins.

In any case, it's a hilarious review. I liked the part about his reasoning for romancing Anders in the game, and the part about Hawke's mother's bewbage.

OMFG, that was hilarious. Worth a listen regardless of whether you liked the game or not just for the humor.

[ColdbringeR]

Haha. I think he covered just about all of the bases in terms of mocking the flaws of DA2. Pretty funny.

[nopho]

my first loud laugh of the day, so funny and so true

[Thestral]

LOL.


For the record, I like the game. :'D

It's difficult to determine whether a game is good or bad based on Yahtzee's videos; like a friars roast, every game gets a good schlacking. But as someone who has completed the game a few times now, I can't really deny any of his points.

Dragon Age II really is an unimaginative title, if there is a DA3 I hope they don't call it DA3.

[Niniva]

idk, he seemed more brutal than the origins review. especially towards the end of that review where he remarks he's finding it hard to not play and is remaining interested. He said nice things here and there, that's how i usually try to tell whether he actually liked it or not.

Contrast to this where he just rips it the whole time.

Anyway, he was hilairious as always.

and i really like DA2...

i wanna watch but are there spoilers?

[DKJaigen]

Ha i love this game and even i find this hilarious.

[MonkeyLungs]

His DA:O review was very positive for Yahtzee. He basically said: ---> " It's standard fantasy that gives fantasy rpg gamers what they want and despite being a very long game full of cliche's is interesting enough to hold even my attention."

His DA2 review was far more hostile.

No. No he really wasn't.

[Savber100]

Actually he liked DA:O.... well it was positive anyways.
The only games Yahtzee truly loved was Silent Hill 2, Portal, and Prince of Persia:Sands of Time.
Oh and Fantasy World Dizzy.
This review is most definitely negative. Can you guys not tell? If he had liked it, he would most definitely indicate so by mentioning more of the positives. See his Batman: Arkham Asylum review.

For the most part, no.  The last minute or so lays out the basic storyline of the game and more or less tells you the ending, but it doesn't give any details.  If you are concerned about spoilers, I'd just watch it after you finish the game.

[DetailedSubset]

I would like it to be known that I like DA2 but was disappointed with it all the same.

Anyway I get the impression that he really doesn't like the game. I know the point of his reviews is that the game gets slammed but as someone who is a fan of Yahtzee outside of Zero Punctuation and as someone who has watched most of his reviews more than once, I would say that the review is most definitely negative.
His DAO review was fairly neutral by his standards, as is usual when he reviews a Bioware game he complimented the writing, which he certainly didn't do for DA2.

[Persephone]

AH, I LOLed. Fantastic. :lol:

I suppose we all see what we want to see. I thought he was more hostile to DA:O

[Avissel]

Yahtzee isn't really a fan of anything

Except Psychonaughts.
And people hated it when he did nothing but praise the game.

you know what I'm actually enjoying it

The fact that I can play it for 25 hours and still want to find out what happens next means that I shouldn't complain 

The only real thing he has against DAO is the cliche setting.
