No freaking kidding. I almost think this was a mistake. This "casual" difficulty setting is NOT for casual players. It's for experienced RPG players (which I really am not). I keep dying and there are even some fights in the Hinterlands (FIRST level) that I can't engage in b/c I die after the first hit.

 

I have been having a relatively easy time on Normal difficulty but there is something that bothers me a lot - I liked how enemies would scale in level to you in games like Skyrim so you could freely explore without having to worry about being level-gated out of certain places. I'm only level 6ish right now, and there have been moments where I've traveled to places with level 12 and up monsters out of the blue. It's not even a gradual scale - these level 12 baddies have normal level 5-6 cousins right around the corner. I can understand something like a dragon (or other special boss) being very high leveled, but it's weird that I'm encountering all these rifts with randomly higher leveled versions of the same things I was fighting earlier. Is there some plot element involved I don't know about yet? It's just annoying that I'm discovering these rifts and now I'll have to resign myself to backtracking to them once I'm higher leveled.

I've already logged 18 hours, and I still have yet to recruit Dorian or Cole, and I don't have Skyhold yet either. I really need to stop picking up every single herb I pass :\

I feel like that will be the case for me too. I've never been able to resist anything that allows for interaction in games, especially ones like DA. o__o

I've been hearing that the PC interface is a complete mess.  Can someone who's playing it let me know if this is the case?  I can always plug in a controller but I've never used one except for the Access trial and I found them next to impossible but I suppose like anything else you learn these skills.  If the mouse/keyboard is functional at all I'd prefer to go that way but I just don't know how counter intuitive they are.  I'd appreciate any advice.

 

Thanks  :D  :huh:  :)

So, word to the wise. If you see a giant cow thing, do not I repeat do not shoot at it. I don't care how trigger happy you are feeling after murdering countless nugs and goats. You see it is not actually a cow; it is a beast from hell who will chase you back to Haven and glare at you from the gates while you stand just beyond the threshold cowering like the milk-drinker you are.

Dalish hunter my arse...  :rolleyes:

Ironically, my daughter paused her game and came in to chat about how far she'd gotten. I said, oh, by the way, if you see something like a giant cow near Haven, leave it alone. She asked why in a very suspicious voice, so I told her someone described it as a beast from hell that would wait at the gates of Haven for her (then showed her the photograph). She looked at the screenshot with a very pained look, then said "Oh, I just shot that druffalo before I paused. So, when I unpause, ... s**t." She said it took her 15 minutes of running and keeping it at range while she sniped (and drinking a couple of potions when it almost one-shotted her), but she took it down. :P

So... Can anyone tell me approximately how long until you get Skyhold? I'm only on hour 5, and I'm so distracted by every little thing. I feel like I'll be 50 hours into it before I hit Skyhold! I'm loving pretty much everything so far, except that I can only play for about an hour or so before the queasiness sets in, but that's my issue not the game!

That was my strategy, too. Run away, and shoot from a distance. And stealth! Took me about 15 minutes, too. And I'm playing on casual first time through! Nasty creature!

I think she was on casual too, but she's a much better player than I am. I'd probably have been killed by it in the first 10 seconds :P

I am stuck in the Hinterlands... I don't even know what I'm doing here! Deliver this, kill that... I have been playing for 7-8 hours now. And still only have Varric, Cass, and Solas. What the heck am I even supposed to be doing!?

Building your reputation among the people inhabiting that region? Though remember in the streams they said you don't have to do every single little quest. Like finding the ring for the widow for example, I walked right away from that one.

Oh okay... yeah I've been doing everything I come into contact with in terms of quests >.< I am bored out of my mind! It's almost worse than wandering through Skyrim encountering random caves xD

 

I'm gonna forget this place and just press on to Redcliffe Castle (since I think that's my destination??) and we'll see what happens. Sure would like to meet some of the other companions!

You should come back to Haven and do a bunch of other things there. And war table missions and the main story quest that opens up the companions.

So I don't have to go up to Redcliffe Castle??

 

Why did I come here in the first place? I have seriously forgotten!

I don't know at which point you are. If your next main mission is there, then you should already have the companion missions. PM me if you need help, I can't get spoilery here.

Did you save Mother Giselle and sent her to Haven? Next you have to get to Val Royeaux, just go back to Haven and use the war table.

Well this is just the first place Leliana and co. sent me. I talked to some nun named Giselle but that was like 8 hours ago. Just been wandering around the map since then.

So, could anyone answer do I still have the chance to romance Cullen if I didn't use the flirt option in his first conversation?

Well, from now on, keep an eye on your quests in your journal. The two top categories are main story and companions. The rest are sidequests by land.
