I'd gave DA:O a 10/10. It was honestly the best gaming experience I've ever had, to the point where I teared up the first time I ever beat it. (Is that weird? Meh.) I can find a few small flaws, but nothing that truly takes away from the gameplay.
I'd give DA2 a 8/10. If I'd never played DA:O, it might have recieved a 9 or even a 10, but the comparison makes it lose points. The only thing I really have an issue with is the plot. I just find it rather boring and badly put together, and overall I didn't really care how it worked out in the end. It had nothing on the DA:O plot, which was pretty epic: having to gather allies to fight a massive Darkspawn army. The DA2 plot is largely politics, which is nowhere near as interesting.
However, it had far more good points than bad:
- Varric is seriously the best character from anything ever.
- I never thought I could have a bigger crush on a video game character than the one I had on Alistair, until I met Anders.
- There was far more side quests than main plot, which is my favorite formula for a RPG.
- DA:O was set up as basically a bunch of seperate locations, which you rarely had to travel between during a main plot quest. The main plot in DA2 was more spread out across the map.
- There were so many little happy moments when a recurring character from DA:O appeared, even if only for a few minutes.
Gah, I'm sorry for rambling. Long story short, I love both, but DA:O will always be my favorite game ever.
Agree. Both games are good!
Anders? LOL
I didn't get a crush with Anders but Fenris<3... now thats a work of art,
even when you are a mage, that guy stole Alistair throne in my shrine
