What i like about DA:O is the adventure, no matter what origin i started with, it will be an adventure. I give examples
- A Dalish Elf girl who her life all this time is in the wild, with her clan and boyfriend, she know nothing of outside world, something happened that make her get out from the wild, joining the Grey Warden, going into human land and dwarven kingdom.
- A girl of nobility who her life is so boring in her castle, but fate decree that her family being butchered and then she become a Grey Warden venturing into foreign land and find a way to take a revenge.
In DA:O there are many places with it's own history, background and problems, as in vanilla :
1. Lothering - a small town where survivors of Ostagar hang out to and recently having bandit problem
2. Denerim - the capital of Ferelden, have market, shops, castle, chantry, estates, Back Alley, abandoned building, fort, Alienage, have a lot of quests, many types of peoples, final battle happen here
3. Redcliff - a town where recently have undead problem, have castle, inn, underground passege, a lot of characters, there is epic batlle happen here depend on choice
4. Orzamar - the capital of dwarves, a majestic place, interesting, have inn, shops, proving ground, palace, deep roads, many characters, worth exploring
5. Brecilian Forest - a mysterious forest where Dalish Elf hangout, have werewolves, talking tree, a mad guy, have mysterious ruin with mysterious background, a lot of traps, have legendary revenants
6. Haven - a secluded place where the people are odd, have ancient ruins that are a temple and a tomb of Andraste, have underground caves full of heretics and dragons, have high dragon
7. Circle Tower - the place where mages live, currently have uprising problem, interesting and mysterious
8. The Fade - a dream world and a puzzle
Edit : oops, forgot to mention Ostagar, the place where an epic fail battle taken place, have interesting characters to meet with, have forest full with darkspawn, meeting a nutty old woman and her daughter, the epic Joining with Duncan killing Ser Jory, tower of Ishal, fighting epic Orge...
DLC provide more places and backstories
Each places have their own stories, plots and quests, where the player will explore, investigate, satisfy the curiosity, learning things, learning cultures, learing histories, meet many different peoples/creatures, many things to be found and it never get boring at least for me...
DA2 is a drama, boring one, the player see the very same people at the very same place. yes there is ruins and travelling but not worth it, not to mention the copy and paste maps. The story also focused on Kirkwall and Kirkwall problem. The battle is also not epic, unlike DA:O have many epic battles. If someone say dueling with Arishok is epic, for me it is not, it just a duel. And we also can choose not to duel but royal rumble instead. being a Champion is not as epic as being Hero of Ferelden. The final battle with Meredith is also not epic like DA:O final battle, clearly it have no emotion at all.
So, i have a doubt being the Inquisitor will reach the same level of epicness as being the Hero of Ferelden.
