You know,
all this excitement about DA III is kind of bothering me, as I gave up on the series after DA II. And it is not that I would NOT like to be hyped -- it's exactly the opposite -- but I just CAN'T get back into the world, I'm just stuck at the point in which even replaying DA:O or reading a DA book or comic makes so, so, so little sense that it's almost pointless, and I loved that game before DA II came in and ruined it -- everything about it -- for me. The same goes for my gf, who was truly dedicated fan of DA:O (and it was the ONLY game she ever played, as she despises them generally, not to mention that she is not fond of fantasy overall; so that means something.) So, I dunno, HELP ME, how can you be so excited about it? Cause I can't and can't and can't and the more screenshots and trailers and details surface the more afraid I am I'm not going to buy this game : / cause seriously, I know it was discussed over and over again, but the second installment really did kill all the magic, it really, really, really, really, really did, it ENDED it, simply put. (Even the menus in this game were so horrible, gawd.)

I keep my expectations reasonable though. Crushing disappointment can ruin even an amazing experience because you built it too high.


Expectation management is very important. Rarely do I buy a game and go "ugh I just don't like that." The last one I can remember off the top of my head is Empire: Total War. Though I have since still been able to pick up Shogun 2 and Rome 2 and have enjoyed both of them immensely.

Cleaned up some posts. This thread isn't really the place to start tearing into other games that have frustrated you.

I'm well aware of Rome 2's problems (which fortunately haven't affected me). The statement was that it met my expectations and because of that, I am satisfied.
