Dragon Age 2.

Mass Effect 3 has some issues, but makes up for some of those issues in other parts. DA2, in my opinion, didn't have enough good to make up for the bad. Dragon Age 2 also seemed to start the trend of the bad things we got in ME3.

ME3, I can still re-play DA2 without saying f*ck it and turning the game off.

I am in the minority on here who enjoyed DA 2

*runs away*

DA 2 had its flaws and was inferior to DAO but I still had fun with it

ME3 was just disappointing long before the endings for me

Well mostly because Hawke is the one doing the hosing.  LOL!  Every conversation with Hawke is a fatal one, I have a feeling even a discussion about the weather could end in a street massacre.

Bioware definitely followed the same formula though.  Hawke would just walk up to someone with a bag of bones and say, "I think this belongs to you"   Shepard does much of the SAME thing in ME3.  The commander doesn't even chat up the people he's helping anymore, he just walks around listening now. lol.


Remember when character conversations used to be a strongpoint in Bioware games? In my opinion they lost their way when they started clearly labeling each conversation option so that the player would immediately know which one was "good" and which was "bad". In ME2 and ME3 you can do a paragon playthrough just by picking the upper-right option or the blue option in every conversation. It's been dumbed down to the point where no thought is required. The interrupts are a nice addition but again when they clearly label whether it is paragon or renegade it cheapens the whole endeavor.

Dood you high? If you're supposed to be commander Shepard, why WOULDN'T the dialogue options be clear as day?! How would that make sense that you don't know what you're going to say? It's YOU!

Yeah. ME3 by far for me as well. 
Just like you I can also still play DA2.
And to be honest I never hated DA2 as much as some other people do. Sure it was far from as good as DA:O, but still playable and decent. And in contrary to ME3 it's also still re-playable (for me).

He =) That was a little bit funny yes.

I guess for some people the appealing challenge was to play guess works in order to pick the right dialogue options.
Personally i'd rather not have my character say something completely different then what I wanted him to say =)

I actually really like DA2, and I still enjoy ME3. Personally, I don't consider either to be a huge disappointment. I didn't like the end of ME3, but it didn't ruin the game or the series for me. I do hope the EC evens things out, though.

ME3. I was not as emotionally invested in Dragon Age as I was in Mass Effect.

Can you imagine the rage when the homophobes find out you can no longer actively avoid a gay romance with Kaidan/Steve and you have to try and avoid it by trial and error? That means witnessing your Shepard make those kinds of comments unless you're really good at guessing.:pinched:

I had issues with dragon age 2, but i've played it again a number of times (at least once as each class) but after mass effect 3 i just have no desire to play it again in full....

ME3. After putting all the effort in the codex entries and getting me to read all of them, marvelling at all the people who took the time to speculate and write brilliant essays about them, my expectations were really high for the final installment of MEU. Needless to say that ME3 doesn't have anything like it. For me it is not the whole game i was expecting, it was just one big ending. So final in it's execution that it's totality cut me off completely.

At least with DAO there was the choice off surviving or sacrificing for the warden. I can take the game as a stand alone installment. There is the finality that doesn't kill the desire to re-play the game again and again. DA2 i an stomach to a certain point and i am still able to play just for fun. I knew before i bought it it wouldn't be the same, not having the same characters.

ME3. Despite DA2's fails, it's a very enjoyable game, and I can replay it without causing depression to me like ME3 does.

DA2 was a disappointment but ME3 tops it by far.

Why? Because I enjoyed Mass Effect 3 so much at times that there were some really sharp moments that brought disappointment through the game. The ending was the nail in the coffin.

Difficult, the ending of ME3 was more disapointing, but DA2 was overall worse I think, the gameplay just wasn't there. An error in the ending is a tiny bit more forgivable then the simplicity of DA2

ME3, it had 2 games of build up and in the end they dropped the ball hard.

My expectations for DA2 were not very high at the release so I was not that disappointment in it. I have never had higher expectations for a game then for ME3 and they were exceeded! By the point of priority earth I was ready to applaud BioWare for a brilliant work and then the ending happened. My ecstatic awe turned into disbelief and disappointment in two minutes time and then after the stargazer scene I was outright angry. 99 % of ME3 is the best game I've ever played but the end was SO terrible that I don't feel like ever play it again, the story and lore was massacred in the last cutscene when we all were ready to see the epic conclusion of the series.

ME3 by far. DA2 was a bit of a mess at launch but it did have a coherent and fairly OK story. As others have said DA2 also didn't have two other games in the series to be firmly based upon and wasn't supposed to be some epic finale. DA2 was also really focused at console gamers - and game developers seem to have this really weird idea that games need to be simplified for console gamers - ME was a console game to start with.

ME3 is the first game from Bioware that I can remember actually thinking that the central plot of the game is just totally wrong. Bioware just don't get things like that wrong.

How?  I can't get past the first 5 minutes of DA2.  


- I never finished DA2
- Bioware never finished ME3.

Tough call....
