I was wondering, having played thru DAO and all of it DLC's as well as DA: Awakening, which came first? Based upon the game graphics as well as the game mechanics, it appears that DA2 was born before the others.
Not meaning to be opinionated, but I have found that DAO and DA: Awakening to be far more superior in all aspects.
Truthfully, I am most disappointed with DA2.

Quite a few people disliked DA2 for various reasons. Personally, I prefer DA2 to DAO.

I think the general view is that DA2 was rushed. It is a more ambitious game, I think, and there are plenty of good ideas in it (wanting to focus on a personal story, seeing how a city evolves according to your choices over time, a more sophisticated approval system) but overall too many corners were cut getting the game to market to do it justice.
I've heard DA:O described as a cliched story told incredibly well, and DA2 as an innovative story told badly. I think that sums up my position.
Although, in its favour, I have found that it improves on replaying. There are a LOT of sub plots told simultaneously throughout the game and my first playthrough quickly descended into a confusing mess of chasing the plot markers with little idea of who I was supposed to be fighting and why. Further playthroughs do help there and it is more enjoyable to follow the stories through the acts.

I know, this is below the belt.
Egads, some people think, rushing is below the belt.

My ol' lady would disagree with rushing being good:devil: And yes, it would certainly relate to "below the belt"caradoc2000 wrote...
