Im in the end of chapter 2, loose all interest in the game, but have a little hope ( love the firts one ,,,same team.. maybe a miracle... ) so thats why im writting , do things get better on chapter 3 or is the same stuff?
tnanks in advance


If you don't want to ruin your whole Dragon Age experience, with a mad templar wielding a red lightsaber and jumping around 30 meters in plate armor, you should skip the third chapter. There are stones better left unturned.

erm get your facts right buddy its a sword made from the corrupted lyrium idol that you find in the thaig that bartrand takes and leaveds you all for dead for and since as its imbued with some kind of dark magic leaping 30 feet into the air in full armour is quite feasable

So..i just played the BEST part of the game? .....


Act 2 was easily the best part of the game. The Arishok is actually a cool grey character on par with Loghain I think. I had no issues with the story/writing of the 2nd Act so much.

But Act 3? A drunk 13 year old writing fan fiction could have done a better ending.

well not to make you look as stupid as you sound but in response to your question as the bottom of this blood magic is forbidden in the circle you character if you play as a mage is an apostate which means they are not in the circle duh

@jbrand2002uk:

You might want to tone down your attacks on people. Calling others' opinions 'stupid' without proper grammar on your own part isn't helpful at all in either case.

Really? It's pure lyrium? Must have forgotten between the Lord of the Rings mindmanipulating cliché and that "brilliant" cliffhanger. I thought for sure, that it's a lightsaber, all the glowing redness and jumping around like a Jedi. Nevertheless my previous statment remains unchanged.

And for me, it's not feasable. It's a thing that should be in a Final Fantasy game, not in Dragon Age. When that jump happened, all the credibility of the series were diminished.

i just cant believe people can come on here and say origins was better than 2 i have played both and many other rpgs since the mid 1980's and origins was so dull slow long wind and generally boring that most people would have more fun wearing a straight jacket sat in a padded cell tranquilised by the halfway point of origins i was bored out of my skull combat was way to slow and for a game thats less than 5 yrs old the graphics were appaling while visuals are towards the bottom end of priorities in and RPG for a game thats less than 5yrs old its unacceptable for a PC game if i was to write a list of the faults with origins on a sheet of paper it would stretch from miami to san franciso(for u yanks) DA2 did have its faults i agree but it was a vast monumental improvement over the dud that was origins but for those who are partway through their 1st playthrough finish the game and dont let some very closed minded idiots put you off what is a good game and well worth the 90% reviews many magazines gave it and lets face it they know alot more about games than so of the so called experts on here who think you can compare origins with 2 the automotive equivelant would be like trying to compare a car to a motorcycle you cant they are completely different just as DAO and DA2 are completely different which therefore makes it totally impossible to make a direct comparrison but alas alot of DAO players are very selfish people as they think their opinion is the only opinion and the right one if you like hardcore rpg's with a 100hr + quest and nerdy level of detail into stats and your d+20 rolls and all that you have origins and about a hundred other rpg's to go and play so quit ruining the fun and depriving people who want to play an RPG without having to spend over 80hrs to complete one runthrough by coming on the dev site and saying oh well if DA3 isnt exactly like origins then well i'll never buy another bioware game again just seriously go lock urselves away in your room and dont ever come back out because the rest of the world is happy with the way things are and where it might be going

No offense, and not to be a grammar cop or anything, but do you think you could try to use some punctuation or something?  Maybe some capital letters here and there to indicate a new sentence?  You're making my eyes bleed.

Your wall of text makes things hard to decipher but given what I read...you basically think all people who liked Origins better are basically selfish right?

Heres a suggestion for you. Some people liked the game better than DA:2.  Some people liked DA:2 better than Origins. Its their right to prefer which game they like.

I suspect once DA:3 comes out...there will be alot of DA:2 lovers whining as well since it has been said they are bringing back some of Origins elements.:whistle::lol:

Hey, man. Just chill... The OP asked for our opinion, and I gave him/her mine, just as you and the others did. That's all. And for the negative feedback, well there must some reason for it, but it would be better not to discuss that in this topic, maybe in another.

I guess its safe to assume there was little credibility left for the series to lose after DAOs FF finishing moves (if leaping so far is FF like then so is balancing and doing flips off a dragons head), all the glowing colors from effects and the multiple "lightsaber" weapon effects.

Its amusing how things that happened in DAO get a pass but if its in DA2 then it causes them to lose all credibility of the series...

Ok I'll you a deal Captain_Obvious, I'll start propperly punctuating all my replies when other people quit making negative comments about a game they clearly havent played, or have played it with the misguided expectation that is in anyway comparable to DAO
Like i have said DA2 did have some faults yes, mainly the copy and paste attitude towards some of the levels like the caves for example.

But for some people to say that they never fixed any of the faults that origins had is wrong, the fixed almost every flaw origins had ,though i admit there is still room for improvement.
The simple fact remains that because DAO fans have realised that the Dev's have moved with the times to appeal to a broader cross-section of the gaming public, instead of just pure hardcore RPG players who like nothing more than to spend 100+ hrs to complete 1 playthrough, they post all over the web with nothing but negative comments not even admitting the improvements that were made.

If they want a game with dull, slow paced combat, side quests that take hours to complete and and about a bizillion abbilities to learn they allready have the perfect game for them its called Dragon Age Origins, furthermore to have the opinion that the only acceptable Dragon Age game, is their kind of Dragon Age game is the height of stupidity and arrogance. To add to that they insult people who have played every game that has supported Bioware by buying and playing their games and not writing off the company just because 1 of the many games they have made doesnt meet their own demands, These proliffent whingers then have the cheek to call themselves the Bioware Faithful which they clearly are not.That's also the reason why most of the people who have nothing but negative opinions about Dragon Age 2 could never work in the games review industry, because the one thing you can't have is a slanted opinion.

Simply put the times have moved on and RPG's in the style of Dragon Age origins are out dated and out of touch with what the majority of game players want, after all Bioware has to think of its profits if it is to continue the francise, the cold hard numbers say there are far more general gamesplayers that may well pick up a game like Dragon age 2 than hardcore oldschool RPG only players who think origins is as good as the Genre gets

Every fantasy title has a little extravagancy, even A Song of Fire and Ice, which tends to be quite realistic (remember Blackwater and the green flames). It's the heritage of the genre: for the hero to find the strength and execute that dragon in that way. Not by punching Sir Isaac Newton in the face by a 30 meter jump (that's better left for JRPGS, where everything is possible), but by having skill and a bit of luck (remember Legolas and the skateboarding in Helm's deep). Riding on the head of the archdemon is skill, but jumping 30 metres in full plate armor is just really out of place in a world like Thedas.

Funny how you seem to neglect the fact that Origins did win alot of awards.  Its also still sold better than DA:2.

DA:2 was NOT a bad a game but it was poorly executed.  

There are some great elements that I have no doubt will be improved upon and incorporated in Dragon Age 3. But I also predict there will be things from DA: 2 we will NOT see in DA:3.

And about this so called majority...I presonally think a great many gamers are lazy and want things handed to them.

As a standalone game, its ok. The 1st and 3rd acts are vile, disgusting and are embarrassing, but the 2nd and Legacy aren't that bad. So remove acts 1 and 3 and you have a game with potential.

As an Origins sequel, it is a disgrace to everything BioWare once was. In fact, for a franchise that started out to be a spiritual successor to Baldur's gate, they couldn't have gotten any further from that. And its not like the change has even brought in more players. The game is selling worse then Origins, while the core audience of it have simply abandoned hope.


So no, you will not enjoy it.

And in recap:

>DAO was amazing 
>BioWare wants larger audience 
>BioWare changes everything in DAO
>DA2 was a flop
>Bioware has smaller audience

Have they? I haven't. Quite the opposite in fact. (And I've played ALL of Bioware's RPGs)

And they sure are loud for a crowd who supposedly gave up hope. :whistle:

OP: Make up your own mind. Or let others do it for you, but that's never a good idea.

Yea looking back to that, it was stupid of me to say. 
I hate looking back at an opinion that I made 5 minutes ago and realizing I was wrong. 
However the rest of the post still stands.

As much as I love Alistair, if we got the opportunity to take Loghain earlier on in the game I would have happily took it - he's a much more interesting character.

In many ways i agree with you Melca36 origins did win alot of awards at the time, and at that time it was proberly the best RPG on the market,but both time and technology has moved on and DA2 did make alot of improvments particuly in the combat area which is a large part of the Dragon Age francise, although i did find the spawning waves of enemies tedious on the higher difficulty settings.
Including all of the DLC and Legacy it would take around 60-80hrs to complete which i think is quite long enough, making it longer would be fine but to do that means you need to have a good pace and thats where Origins let the side down in that in general it was too slow and too tedious.

Personally I think if they made DA3 as per DA2 but with
1) More unigue levels(no re-using the same cave 4 times with doors in different places)
2) Additional weapons and skillsets like spears, mace's etc.
3) More than 1 city to explore.
4) Actual choices with multiple real outcomes rather than different ways of being guided down the same path.
5) The option of propperly rejecting a side quest/quest instead of just an angry answer and having to do it anyway(Blackpowder Courtessy for example)
6) Abillity to choose the species of your character if Hawke isnt the main character.
Me personally i would like to play as hawke again in DA3 or at least find out what happened to him/her, overall when you take the story remit into account i thought hawke was a good character, I guess the reason the 3rd act is shorter is because by the end of act 2 you have become the Champion of Kirkwall so the Final battle was proberly kept short because they possibly intend to cover the mage templar war in full in DA3 so could only have the fight that would be the flashpoint for that upcoming war.
The main reason i wasnt dissapointed with DA2 is because from Day one i saw it for what it was a spin-off from Origins not a full blown sequel as many thought it was, and treat it as. Which is why i was very disapointed with Origins because when you have a combat focused RPG the combat should be like combat really is, smooth and fast but in origins the combat was so slow it just felt like an afterthought but the killer for me was the silent character it had no personality where as in DA2 you could really enjoy some of the more cheeky replies you gave to NPC's because you can hear it. Maybe a happy medium for DA3 would be the option to change the voice like in some Tiger Woods games for example.
Its just annoys the hell out of me when someone plays DAO all the way through in every possible way, then only plays half of the Base DA2 not including Legacy and then goes around saying saying oh its trash when they havent played the full game, regardless i will be buying DA3 when its released and any other DA2 DLC in the meantime

Negative comments pertaining to a game that they have not played? Have you some unknowable truth that the rest of the human race lacks in the ability to determine who has and has not purchased or played said product? No, I didn't think so.

As to misguided expectations, well when one widely markets the game as the "sequal to the RPG of 2009" It tends to create that expectation, that is the point of it, disengenuous as it may be. Is it comparable to Origins? No, as I wouldn't put them in the same league, my opinion of DA2 being decidedly low. Regarding, some faults, in DA2, that would be a mild understatement. Particularly as my issues go far beyond simple cut and paste environments.

Please, other than the pathing issues what was fixed in DA2 without causing a whole host of new problems? And as to improvements, your point can be summed up as, "it is better because I say it is" congratulations you have reached conversational complexity of "it is because it is"

I also find it remarkable that your own stupidity and arrogance has come through quite well in your own slanted opinion of the game's reception, congratulations hypocrisy abounds in your third paragraph.

And simply put, if that large casual market were so willing to pick up the new game's direction, pray, do tell where are they? I have not seen anything remotely resembling a vast uptake of a new segment. Consider, a larger market does not equate to immediate success if one's competition outstrips it easily. The economics and the administration of the situation is not simply dictated by something as short term as profit margins, if any future product caries the stigmatism of its predecessor, which largely failed to appeal to this new group and earned a heavy amount of criticism from an existing segment.

Is Dragon Age Origins as good as it gets? Hopefully not, but, if you believe this I suggest you remove your tinfoil hat, before trying to be taken seriously.

I dont need an unknowable truth because its clear from their comments they have only played the standalone game minus Legacy and the other DLC dragon age is a combat oriented rpg after having played videogames for over 24 years i can tell the difference and the one thing you dont do in a combat oriented game is make the combat criminally slow like it was in origins thats like putting someone in a motorcycle race and then taking away the motorcycle.

and wether it was marketed as a sequel or not is irrelevant if it was a true sequel then the main character would have been the warden not hawke who was a minor figure in the battle for ostagar featured in origins.
therefore it isnt a sequel and should not be treated as such, and yes DAO fans are selfish because as far as they are concerned juding by their comments and rants is that the only soloution they will accept for DA3 is to make it exactly like DAO but with better visuals,where as most sensible sane people like me and others are willing to accept some compromise between the 2 and we dont go shouting oh well if DA3 isnt exactly like DA2 then we're not buying it Which is exactly what most of the hardcore DAO fans that post on here say and as for bias i have none personally i would choose the ace combat series or Total war series of games over WoW or BG
the fact is many gamers like myself have wives children and jobs which we have to put first and its those kind of gamers that have other more important responsibilities than sitting on our butts for 120hrs eating deep fried mars bars that wouldnt be able to enjoy a decent RPG if all these Hardcore origins fans had their way and since as there are at 20 other RPG's out there that would please that group of hardcore RPG'ers then yes i think it is selfish of them to keep wanting more of the same.

put it this way would you like it if every TV show was Big Brother or American Idol or Xfactor or Dance with the stars or Eastenders or Coronation Street or Neighbours or Home and Away because more people have watched them than say Top Gear or WWE or TNA i dont think you would would you ?

 I can so relate to that. Family over video games is what i always say, my wife and kids is not gonna put up with me playing a games 20+ times. I got way better priorities then sitting infront of a game all day, not possible with my life style. These guys in these forums got waaaaay to much time on their hands. I'm glad with what Biowares doing and I support them. I feel the cry babies on these forums should play time sink MMOs, something they can substitute real life for.

 Bottom line if they don't like the game just move on.:P
