Bethesda rocks. You should follow their example of having nearly no linear plots whatsoever. If you were more like them, you would be almost as awesome as they.
I did enjoy DAO and DA2. But too many plots, felt too linear. I disliked situations where you were trapped and for all of your ungodly power, simply could not get out. Or forced into make some dismally stupid decision with no alternative. You try to do things your way, but some annoying NPC whines and screams "But thou must!"
No, Tamlen, I don't want to go in that freaking ruin!
No, Leske, I'm not putting on that butt ugly armor, I'm going to slap that drunk in the face until he wakes up!
No, Jowan, I don't want to do any favors for you, because you suck, and I was just introduced to you 2 minutes ago so I don't care about you. Now leave me ALONE!
No, Soris, I'm not lifting a finger for those useless elven girls, because I just started playing this game 5 minutes ago and I feel nothing for them. Therefore, no, I don't care what happens to them. Especially because they're city elves, and city elves are dumber than a box of rocks.
OH YES DUNCAN, TAKE ME TAKE ME TAKE ME!!!! Being a prince/princess of Orzammar/Being a second born of a noble SUCKS ROTTEN EGGS!!!! I want to leave with you NOW!!!! Let's just skip all this humiliating crap and get going!!!!!
NO DUNCAN, I DO NOT WANT TO DRINK DEMON GIZZARD JUICE!!!!!!!
NO I DO NOT WANT TO SAVE SCOTLAND, because it's full of disgusting, vile, ugly, smelly canines and idiots. All of the butthead nobles undermine you constantly and impede your efforts at every turn and refuse to help you unless you do some stupid favor for them while a bunch of demons ravage their land. They don't WANT their land saved. And I don't want to save it because it's stupid! I want to watch this dump burn. Then I'll use the ashes for my compost bin.
I freaking hate you Alistair/Morrigan. Every time I have to listen to your voice I want to scream. Kneel down NOW so that I may remove your empty head from your shoulders.
Oh and on that note, in Beth's games you can kill just about anyone you want. Like, 90% of all the NPCs in the game. In DA you hardly get to kill anybody. I want to kill more people. Killing NPCs is fun. It's like a cup of coffee without all the caffeine. Or getting drunk, but without a hangover in the morning.
Allow us to be the psychopaths we were meant to be. And otherwise make what choices we wish to make. Because it's more appealing to my short attention span. Replay value is multiplied, hundredfold. More lovely bits of green paper for you. Everyone wins!
