Item descriptions are like notes on the refrigerator. Most of the time, they're mundane, e.g. "Daggers are short, double-edged slashing implements" or "Took Janice to soccer practice. Start dinner, please," but every once in a while, it's delightful, e.g. "Somewhere on the field there is a bewildered knight fighting with his dinner fork. Pity him." It's the DA equivalent of the kind of refrigerator note I couldn't possibly quote here.

That was one of my favourite ones! Another one would be the glamour charm's description: This minor magical charm captures the viewer's attention and distra... ooo, pretty...

You know... They could always bring those descriptions to the codex in DA3...? This would fix a lot of things.

or they could just bring back item descriptions...

 The removal of item descriptions for most items in DA:2 got on my nerves far more than the re-used areas. They were just a little touch that made all the difference, turning a decent sword into a personal weapon. The little anecdotes were always interesting, and occasionally amusing to read. It can't take that much time to add them in again, and its the little things like this that when added together, make a game of Origins' calibre.

A couple of my favourite examples:

The Keening Blade: "This blade makes an eerie wail, just on the edge of hearing whenever it cuts the air.Twined runes are carved into its surface, hinting at the enchantments bound inside."

Corruption: "This helm, wrestled from a commander of the darkspawn forces, carries powerful enchantments. It is uncomfortable to wear, though, as a constant whispering seems to surround the bearer, as if the helm carries echoes of the archdemon's commands"

Lifegiver: "The dark arts of a powerful blood mage forged this ring. Despite its unsavory origin, the ring's power has made it a favorite of many nobles and heroes over the centuries. Some say its abilities come at a price, but if true, that price is not apparent. "

So, post here if you support adding in item descriptions into DA:3, as well as naming equipment. rather than generic rings/amulets. And feel free to post your favourite item descriptions from Origins.

I agree.  I really hated the loot system in DA:2.  

I once got 33 3x RINGS in an entired game!!



And it really annoyed me to get one to get a demonic ring and find its the same as a basic 3X ring.


Item descriptions were a GREAT part of the game and in my opinion they took part of the heart out of the game by removing them

What's so important about item details? You can simply go to the codex and read them there instead.

Because its part of the heart of the game away. Its one of the reasons I BOUGHT every single item pack. I LOVED the item descriptions...especially the mage pack.   Item descriptions add to the lore and are enjoyed by people who are sentimental.

I didnt like finding 33 3X Damage rings in an entire game and finding a Deminic Ring has the SAME attributes of a 3x Ring.

I vote for hussey 92's solution, and mecla's, and a lot of other people here's.

We don't need more codex item descriptions. The codex item description thing works best for truly notable items, legendary heirlooms that passed through generations or objects that helped change the world, in their day. When the codex is bloated with everyday items that just happen to have amusing or otherwise interesting descriptions, it dilutes the significance of the stuff that really belongs in the codex. That isn't to say that everyday items shouldn't have amusing or otherwise interesting descriptions! It's just that there should be some differentiation between stuff that is fun and stuff that is fun *and* important.

Have the description readable on the item and also copy the description into the codex the first time you see it. That way you can sell the item and still read about it, yet if you've got it in your hands you don't need to delve deep into the codex to find it.

Win/win!

Hmm... I wish I had your refrigerator notes.

[hussey 92]

did the loss of item descriptions have anything to do with the rushed development?

And did anybody find "junk" to be useful? It seems like it just crowds the inventory.

[ev76]

It would be nice if they brought back some of the descriptions, if we where to find cool random loot. It be cool if the description also was implemented in game. Examples from op: the keening blade makes an eerie wail. Let me hear the eerie wail as I'm slashing foes, or Corruption helm- seems to have whispers surround the bearer. If I wear the helm let me hear whispers in game. That would be cool.

Not only item descriptions but bring back the item detailed pictures instead of just a yellow-neon colored icon. I like to feel like when I look at an object in my inventory that I can actually see what it looks like. Again, that adds more immersion to the game that DA2 didn't have.

You know you can equip the character with the item and rotate them to see how it looks, right?

[Jerrybnsn]

rings, belts and amulets? Weapons I know can be equiped on the character to see what it looks like, but you have to go through an extra step of equipping. I still prefer the Origins method of showing the item by itself. Or, are you going to say that costs too much time and resources for that too?

Attention everyone.  Due to the high costs and resource demand, Dragon Age 3 will now implement a new inventory system.

Not only item descriptions but bring back the item detailed pictures instead of just a yellow-neon colored icon.

I hated the yellow icons.  It was one of the first things I noticed when I started playing.

[ianvillan]

I think they should also get rid of the star rating system, I found the star rating pointless and have no idea how it was meant to be designed but it did not fit the purpose.

Kinda useless, yeah. I mean, you'd pick up a +3% physical damage ring in Act 1 and it would have 4 stars or whatever. If you still had it in Act 3, it would have 1 star, but when you picked up an *identical* +3% physical damage ring in Act 3, it would have 4 stars.

 The removal of item descriptions for most items in DA:2 got on my nerves far more than the re-used areas. They were just a little touch that made all the difference, turning a decent sword into a personal weapon. The little anecdotes were always interesting, and occasionally amusing to read. It can't take that much time to add them in again, and its the little things like this that when added together, make a game of Origins' calibre.

A couple of my favourite examples:

The Keening Blade: "This blade makes an eerie wail, just on the edge of hearing whenever it cuts the air.Twined runes are carved into its surface, hinting at the enchantments bound inside."

Corruption: "This helm, wrestled from a commander of the darkspawn forces, carries powerful enchantments. It is uncomfortable to wear, though, as a constant whispering seems to surround the bearer, as if the helm carries echoes of the archdemon's commands"

Lifegiver: "The dark arts of a powerful blood mage forged this ring. Despite its unsavory origin, the ring's power has made it a favorite of many nobles and heroes over the centuries. Some say its abilities come at a price, but if true, that price is not apparent. "

So, post here if you support adding in item descriptions into DA:3, as well as naming equipment. rather than generic rings/amulets. And feel free to post your favourite item descriptions from Origins.

Oh I agree. The Star rating system was a disaster.  I also would occasionally find a ring called a "Demonic Ring" and it would just turn out to be a 3X damage ring.  Never understood the rings that would had like 4 points to health and thats it.

did the loss of item descriptions have anything to do with the rushed development?

And did anybody find "junk" to be useful? It seems like it just crowds the inventory.

I once gave a suggestion that there should have been an NPC "Vendor" where we could have exchanged junk items for something useful. He could have been in the Black Emporium.
