More dissapointing sequel? Dragon Age 2 or Mass Effect 3?

I am well aware of the weaknesses of Dragon Age 2. It is less tactical and expansive than DAO. But there were other reasons why I actually like DA2.

1. Hawke and his story was appealing,

2. The combat animations were more fluid (swinging mage stave like a boss),

3 .Blooming Rose was fun to visit.

4. The sequel found a more fitting tone compared to the messy, bloodsoaked mess that drenched Dragon Age: Origins (Seriously, everyone you came across was soaked in blood! More so than in DA2. Even blood got splashed on the DAO logo.)

With that said, and I know that this is the Mass Effect 3 room, I thought Mass Effect 3, as the sequel to a heavily applauded ME2 (In DA2 same position) was terrible accross all fonts. ME3 did everything wrong, in my opinion. One of the numerous reasons I cordially dislike ME3 was that the game took too many shortcuts. They cut corners in squadmate interaction. They cut corners in the endings. They cut corners presenting Cerberus as a major atangonist, (Despite some dissagreements, The Illusive Man was an ally to Shepard. No villain would bring you back from the dead just to betray you.) The only improvement ME3 made was the combat and inclusion of multiplayer.

Also, ME3 was undeniably, unquestionably, uncool. And terrible, too. Through everything ME3 failed in, the negative reaction it illicited, and all the gay sex, ME3 will alwaysn be remembered as a shameless sequel that made head-scratching and hair-pulling decisions of closing an acclaimed trilogy. Remember how everyone thought End of Evangelion was just the weirdest, most off-color ending to the Neon Genesis Evangelion series? Yea, everyone turning into orange tango was not much different than the Synthesis ending, all it was missing was the Jpop soundtrack. Oh wait, am I hearing the Faunts?

All in all, Dragon Age 2 may be an inferior and dissapointing product when compared to the original. Yet, the changes made for Dragon Age 2 ended up being appreciated by some, including myself. ME3 introduced inappropriate concepts for the sake of reaching the minimum quality. That is why ME3 is a more dissapointing sequel than Dragon Age 2 was. If Bioware needs to restore the fanbase's faith in the quality of games they can make, Dragon Age III is their ONE CHANCE.

Note: I know people are going to ignore this post just because they don't see any registered game content accolades underneath my picture, either that or this post is too long. I tried my best with the formatting! Okay! So, reason being why I don't have any games registered because my previous account got banned. I deleted it, forfeitted the accolades, and started a new one. But it's not like I had any accolades to begin with. :P

Yeah, I think we're done here. The homophobia being the most significant problem, of course, but we also don't do versus threads.
