Hehe a WoW fanboi.what do you expect?I wonder if he figured out the gaunlet without help?And as far as point 10 goes,how is this different than players setting up their own dungeon in NWN multi and then charging REAL money to buy items in game?Or "free" asian MMOs offering pvp items in game for REAL money?Or playing table top Dungeons and Dragons and buying modules every few weeks?The answer is NO DIFFERENCE.No different than playing Battlefield 1942 ,then a year or two later buying battlefield 1942 expansion.No different.Cant afford it?then dont buy it.There are lots of people who CAN afford it though :D.

Gotta love shooting down trolls!

Oh, whatever. The OP is obviously just trolling, but can we lay off with the Blizzard/WoW hate? Like it or not, WoW has been insanely successful at bringing new players into the RPG and fantasy genres, and we should be glad for it. Besides that, it's one of the best values for your gaming dollar ever.



Not all WoW players are idiots. I play WoW. I play DA:O. I enjoy both. Yes, it's quite possible.

perhaps you think the combat system is broken because its too challenging for you...

I sure hope the new community manger gets to build some teeth into the super secret anti-trollware.

BAD..

Top 10 List of why this game is bad..

1. The quests are long and boring.

2. The combat system is completely broken, and the melee class is a complete joke

3. the magic system is way over powered compared to melee

4. Travel to complete quests is rediculously dificult when your jumped on by hords that seem to be more powerfull due to the numbers thrown at the group.

5. back to combat.. it is broken because the class system is broken.

6. the class system is a system that has 2 types, magic, non magic. with not much in between. The mage is also the healer, which makes no sense since they do poorly at healing and dsp.

7, the NPC AI is geared to simply swamp the player by number, most of the time you have to perform a sort of pull to avoid being swamped.. almost all the time, which is rather pathetic for this sort of game.

8. Even at higher levels your group can be destroyed by a group of unarmed urchins(beggars with no armor or weapons), since the oponents scale up to higher levels, no mater what you do in this game... simply rediculous.

9. Always running out of space for your gear, and the extreme price to pay in game for measly bag space..



10. There is always a character in the camp with a neon "!" sign that is always present to 'sell more download content'... shamefull. .. just shamefull..



  • Most arent boring.
  • Simply wrong.
  • see 2.
  • sometimes annoying, yes, but definitely doable
  • stupidity ftw.... see 2. again
  • and anoher time I have to point at 2.
  • Pulling isnt necessary. I had exactly one, in numbers 1, fight in the entire game that required pulling. And lots of people claim even this one could be done without it, though I couldnt.
  • The game becomes easier the higher you level, and on high level only bosses are a match for you, if at all.
  • Dont keep every sh!t you find but sell ----> More space AND more gold!!!
  • OK. Here, you are completely right. This kind of advertisement is cheap, ridiculous and simply sucks. But I wouldnt call the entire game bad because of one crappy idea.

I enjoy the gameplay. I agree with #10. But then that is how the company makes money. I forget he is even there. At least the game is immersive.

Its just sad...



Sad that I have to agree with every single point on your list.



Not really a bad game tho. Just not nearly as great as it should have been.

For some reason I thought number ten was gonna be "10: It's not WoW."

See, I'm a fan of WoW, I don't play it hardcore raider style, I play it RP style and have done since the EU release... And I also really like DA:O... It's possible to legitimately like both...I don't think comparisons between the two are that helpful. Liking WoW doesn't make someone an idiot though.



As to the OP, I disagree with almost all his points, apart from his last one. In game marketing for extra content is a little low. The rest of his points are highly subjective and in a couple of cases don't hold up to even brief scrutiny.

I think it's awesome that a game so bad can be played so much by the OP. I mean, after 69 hours, based on the game save times uploaded to this site, you'd think that if the game was so bad you'd move on to something else. But alas, a game this good has got its hook into you and won't let go, even so much so that you hate the fact that you are addicted to it and posting about it on the forums.



Ah, the wonder that is DA:O. If only all games were so bad.

Your mother must be really proud of you. You know, coming to the DAO official forums and trolling around. That's quite an achievement, you should get a DAO achievement medal for that.

Oh, wait...

It IS possible to play a good many hours giving the game a chance and still not like it much afterward. I mean, if I'd paid the full price on a game, I don't just want to ditch it after only a couple hours. It's like a "meh" movie. I'll watch the full thing (assuming for whatever reason I decided to watch in the first place) before I decide whether it was good or not. I don't walk out halfway through (unless it's really THAT bad). Plus, I don't like paying full price only to have it waste away barely being touched. It makes little sense, and as mentioned, I reserve my full opinion til I'm done. I haven't finished the game, as I've grown bored with it, but I will just to actually say, "I've played it all the way through."



And a negative opinion on something can't simply be brushed off as a "trolling" effort. Seriously, most of the responses here have certainly been less mature than the original post, no matter the claim to the contrary. Resorting to the "he's just a troll" excuse is like forfeiting your point. Either have something intelligent to respond with or don't respond at all. It's that simple. Refute if you disagree, but don't just say someone's trolling for disagreeing with your allegedly sacred opinion. Fluffykeith's post is one of the few decent ones in this thread.



Also, who cares if anyone likes WoW or not? I've no interest in that game, but I don't care if anyone does or not. It's just a game, but liking one or the other doesn't make you either special or better than someone with a different taste. Get over yourselves.



Lastly, this whole internet-lingo "tldr" crap is just that: crap. If it's too long for you to read, don't respond. "Tldr" is just affected superiority and nothing more. It, itself, is spam. I mean, in this particular case, he's expressing an opinion about a game, and you turn around and derogatively express an opinion about HIM. "Tldr." heh Come on....

The thing that undermines the original post, and makes it seem like trolling, is that he states a lot of points that he claims prove the game bad, but doesn't back them up.



In addition, a whole bunch of those points have already been argued endlessly on these forums already. Posting a list like that which doesn't add ANYTHING new, well that seems a bit trollish.

The amount of people I see spelling ridiculous as "rediculous" or some other variation (usually with an extra 'E') is becoming a bit concerning. I mean, I don't dismiss someone's opinion due to spelling errors, but this one in particularly is starting to grate a bit.

Anyway, most of the original poster's points are primarily down to him not being able to handle the difficulty. Problem is, if you know how to use your party and the game's mechanics properly the game is entirely doable for the most part, offering a fair amount of challenge and only a few occasions where difficulty spikes go a bit far. If he really hates learning to play so much then all he need do is slap the difficulty on low, no?

Ironically, considering what the OP is saying, compared to BioWare's other RPGs, this one actually has the most competent combat so far.

The original guy's points are still his impression, and he's entitled to it. Rather than denounce them so instantaneously, ask him to expound on them. That would be a more reasonable approach to this.



Also, if his points have been stated other times, well, so have the counters, or rather, the praising. Each person that does either adds to a total of people either happy or unhappy with the game. It gives a good indication of the numbers. If tons of people say the same thing, then it has to be noted and addressed.

Shameful is about right.

SHAMEFUL.

My little sister could do this better than you, and she is a dyslectic.
