Yes, the voice acting was good. The spell effect animations were an improvement. Qunari looked great.

because there is only one button to push for combat action.

There are actually four buttons for combat action, one for basic attacks and three for abilities.

That's just like Origins. One button to initiate combat and three for abilities.  Yet in DAII, you are expected to push one button continously until you special ability has cooled down, while in Origins you are on auto-attack.  Pushing one button for attack is tedious and I would prefer the auto-attack.

1) Unistall worked
2) The .exe for the most part
3) Button did indeed = awesome
4) Were full plate wearing ninjas supposed to be beamed down from the Enterprise? If so, that worked.

Other than that... nothing.

The disc makes an awesome coaster. That worked.

Lol, I'll bet the energy drink is there because nepp is doing marathon runs of Witcher 2.

[neppakyo]

Yeah Not-so evil twin MrKrustyBurger. I did sit over 6 hours straight playing TW2 one night. I didn't notice the time fly by! And TW2 with everything maxed but Ubersampling, runs better than DA2 with DX11 and crap maxed out.

And agreed Talon, agreed. But back to topic!

DA2 made varric, so that was ok.

Wow... how could I overlook Varric? He was pretty awesome.

Because he was buried under a mountain of poop that is the rest of DA2? Lets dig the poor bugger out! He doesn't deserve it.

Oh, the lame motivational poster I did http://social.biowar...6490/39#7395701

ROFL. I forgot about that Gaider poster I made. It's a couple of posts down from yours.

Oh oh. English voice acting was still top notch (like the absolute ONLY thing I think Dragon age has over the Witcher). Corinne Kempa and, to a lesser degree, Claudia Black are literally carrying this franchise for me.

I dunno TW2 VA was pretty good. Play Scoi'atel path in Act 1 where you lead Ioverth into Flotsam, really epic VA stuff. Or the Vergen invasion (defense or assault).

I did enjoy the eye candy named Fenris.

Not to mention his voice.

I love both youand Tal.! Oh and crusty!

Yes, Varric was awesome without a button. Though he did have Bianca.  I totally would have tapped Varrice if he had been LI, just sayin'.

And Fenris when he wsn't whning about mages ( I wish he would have evolved more as time went on and his relationship with my Mage Hawke progressed).

The problem of a thread like this, is that it isn't "constructive" in a WORTHWHILE way.

I (now ) expect Bioware to have some difficulties in grasping this. Mr.Eppler sure was in a hurry to lock my considerably more constructive thread: What DA2 haters think DA2 did right. So obviously he didn't have a clue then, (or Bioware actually doesn't care about views expressed in this forum - Post in "constructive..." or else...)

I would guess his reasoning runs something along the line that since I excluded people who liked DA2, it's not going to be an all aspect discussion. And there is doubtless also some compulsary mechanism to make people who like DA2 have their say on this forum, and a compulsary mechanism to make this forum as 'balanced' as possible.

Much as I agree on the PR aspects of such views, I think it unfortunately exposes a lack of genuine interest in why DA2 failed with this market group.

If one is truly interested in what DA2 did right, as in the DA2-game-that-failed, we need to find out what those, who didn't like DA2, think it did right.

Now the first thread like this had a lot of people, who liked DA2, posting about the things they adored. Since many of those things are exactly the same things that make a lot of us others blow out temple veins, they ARE NOT THINGS DA2 did "right". They may well be *Things I liked in DA2*, but they are definitely not hings done "right".   
Already here, we find one poster expressing love for Fenris (, personally I hate style elements from anime and JRPG being dragged into my beloved golden, medieval DA:O world) but generally this thread is already dominated by almost hostile, negative comments. Which prove me right, and mr. Eppler wrong. A thread like this will never be "constructive".

DA2's problem is that it failed. One area of interest, then, is what didn't make it fail. Things that may be kept. And that, I would presume, is the subject of threads like this, the original, and mine. I argue that you will only find that out from the people with whom the game truly failed.

Yeah, on my third play through I just got to act 2 last night siding with Scoi'atel and decided to lead him in instead of the all out assault option i took the first time.

But no doubt. I think Vernon Roche, Saskia, and a bunch of others were just phenominal and obviously Geralt got himself an acting coach since TW1. TW2 voice acting was very deep, especially considering this is a Polish company and we're getting translated material which accounts for some of the stranger sentence structures that were in the game (that I don't doubt were hard for the voice actors to pull off). Not faulting TW2 in the slightest, just saying DA2 is still getting slightly better voice actors, as it should be since that's obviously where a large part of their funding goes.

I love how DA2 brings people together in their hatin'
