I really hate QTE, especially when it comes to finishing moves- press X to win

I dont play many games because of this feature <_<

So far Dragon Age absolutly don't have any allusion on this feature... how do you think, is there any chances that this will come to the Dragon Age?

I really don't want QTEs anywhere near this series. The interrupts in the ME series are as close as it needs to get, and even those don't belong in the DA games imo.


The implementation of QTEs all over the place is making me think about skipping RE6.

[Sable Rhapsody]

QTEs are definitely a mixed bag. The interrupts in ME are one thing. The long, boring QTE boss sequences in a game like God of War III are something else altogether.

I would actually like something like the interrupt system--always wanted my Warden to push certain characters out of windows XD But QTE in general is not my idea of good gameplay.

Besides being a waste or resources, Quick time events are more work than they are fun.

ME's QTE is more like a impulse in normal conversation. I think it's a very nice setting.

Quick Time Event.  Better to show you than to tell you: here's a QTE clip from Heavy Rain.

Ah, thank you.

Personally I'm not really for those...admittedly some in ME3 were fun- like punching Gerrel or shanking Kai Lame, but it wouldn't do to crossbreed ME with DA. Keep them seperate.

I agree that generally ME and DA are very different games with different storytelling mechanics, but I do think the interrupts add something to the dialogue, and they could be successfully implemented in DA2.  The number of times I wanted to punch Anders in the middle of one of his crazy rants is telling 

And at any rate, the paragon/renegade interrupts are different from standard QTE in one important way--except the final renegade interrupt on TIM during the Citadel conversation, interrupts are entirely optional.  They're a roleplaying choice, and if you don't take them, all you lose out on are usually a few morality points.  QTEs in games that incorporate them as an essential mechanic usually end in game over if they're failed.

I don't mind them as long as they aren't a win button.
Usually they are mostly for show in ME, which is fien by me. As long as they don't define the difference in a outcome.

And in two lines, you've said what took me two paragraphs   I need to work on my word hemorraging.

I think the major fail with QTE is the player ends up focusing on one small area of the screen waiting for the next button in the sequence to appear, rather than watching the action.

[LPPrince]

QTE suck.

[Nashimura]

I wish in ME they had both renegade and paragon come up at once, so its more of a choice between the paths. I wouldn't mind it for murder knife like actions (not enough of these in 2) but honestly its not needed, it fitted the action game like ME.

As far as QTE in combat...hell no.

[Plaintiff]

I don't mind them every now and again, but it would be neat if they actually had an impact beyond "fail and start the sequence over again".

In Soul Calibur... 3, I'm pretty sure it was, there were cutscenes between fight stages in the story mode, and quite a few of them required you to input a particular button, and if you failed the cutscene, there would be an impact.

For example, one cutscene takes place in a... windmill, or some such thing, and your opponent sets up a trap for you before the fight. If you don't press the button in time to dodge the giant cogwheel that comes hurtling towrds you, then you start the fight with less health.

It could be implemented in Dragon Age during certain cutscenes. "Press 'O' (or the equivalent on xBox or PC) to dodge the blast of fire from the High Dragon" and if you fail, you incur an injury or something. Or "Press 'X' to pre-emptively attack this foe and start the fight with an advantage".

I know a lot of people are gonna say that player "skill" shouldn't matter in an RPG, though, and they likely wouldn't appreciate such a feature.

Yes I feel QTEs are not appropriate for role playing games. You aren't thinking about your character, instead you are mashing buttons like an arcade game.

As for titles like Heavy Rain or Dragon's Lair, where the entire game is like a QTE, this is an entirely different genre, designed for this type of interactive movie experience.

It's an inherent problem with QTE on a conceptual level, independent of genre.

What QTE really needs is to dump the reliance on controller and go with motion recognition, e.g. Move and Kinect.

QTE should not exist in RPGs.

[Icinix]

There are few things I truly, truly, truly loathe and hate in any game.


...but QTE are one of those things...they're fine in games that are made around the QTE - but filler in other genres craps me off no end.

[Nashimura]

Playing Resident Evil 6 right now, i think i just went off QTE's for life.

[The Hierophant]

The God of War series are some of the few games where i thought QTEs were appropriately placed.

It wasn't bad in God of War, but it still suffered the problem of making me focus on small areas of the screen while a bunch of cool stuff that I couldn't watch without dying went on in the background.

But at least the QTE segments in God of War were relatively short.
