Hmm... Even GameInformer, who gave the game 95/100, is saying that: (what's in parenthesis and in red is mine)

 

The only major disappointment is the central story arc. In concept, it sounds cool: The Inquisition is formed to close a demon-filled breach (no good spirits come through?) in the sky, unite the paralyzed power groups of Thedas, and stop an Elder One from taking over the world. However, when you actually reach those beats in the story, many of the would-be defining events feel abrupt or poorly explained.

So some random guy asked for a thread to be moved and just like that, it was moved ?

 

Don't be that "raining when someone spits on you" guy, please.

 

Thread was here for more than a week and suddenly, today TC got warned for making that thread in the scuttlebutt section. 

http://forum.bioware...6#entry17718103

 

I haven't really worked out BioWare's policy on moving threads, they are not really consistent with how the do it.

 

All I know is that someone suggested that it be moved and it seems the mods agreed.

 

I was just trying to point out that it wasn't moved for 'secret conspiracy' reasons but because someone suggested that it should be.

Pincone, you may want to put a warning up for the IGN video.  It shows Iron Bull kicking a fennec fox in the face around the 17:25 mark.

Sounding good so far. The weak plot kinda worries me. I hope the major choices makes sense both ways and aren't just "Good" and "Evil".

Its interesting how divided the opinions are on the plot.

 

Some people praise it and others call it weak.

Well what you highlighted has been adressed in past DA games. Good spirits usually have little reason to come out of the fade unless they really want to help and that seems incredibly rare.

I guess you're talking about the good spirits bit? Could you link the post, please?

Well yes I can't exactly search through the cole topic it would take too long but Patrick tweeted that solas and cole have a banter on possibly why no "good" spirits are appearing. 

 

Going by what we know of spirits anyway in the codex they don't really give a crap about our world anyway. Still I am quite interested to hear the banter about it.

Here is another review from ZTGD, but they rated it 10 for the PS4.

Well as long as it doesn't have a ME3 ending I will be fine.

I'm taking that has a good sign.

 

It means that the plot is not as cut & dry as other games so there is room for different opinions.

I feel like reviewers are divided on the story. Some have said it's incredibly fulfilling, and others are left scratching their heads.

 

That makes me think that maybe DAI is just not hand holding the player, and if you don't pay attention, you'll miss a lot. If that's the case, my already 200% excitement level has leveled up >.>

Indeed, has me on the fence. But considering it was the same with a lot of reviews for both DA2 and ME3 when it came to the story, I'm gonna bet DAI falls in the category of "bad".

Hmm... Even GameInformer, who gave the game 95/100, is saying that: [the story is unsatisfying] 

I like reading reviews and some of the info on gameplay can be helpful.

But I'm going to suspend judgment on the story until I play the game

My feeling all along was that Inquisition is not the end of anything.

This isn't a trilogy of DA:O/DA2/DA:I

DA:I is just another game in the series, so I am prepared for some ambiguity and open questions

That being said the story could be unsatisfying, I just wonder if expectations played a roll in those feelings.

At any rate super geeked up to actually get my hands on the game

That probably means it's ok. Which is....OK. Bioware's plots have rarely been more than serviceable. I did expect something better this time, but if not....well, we'll see.

 

I'm more concerned about this: the GameStar review called the Inquisitor "a domesticated hero with tame, fluffy dialogue" (translated by me). it appears as if I won't be able to say what I want in a rather major way.

How do you interprete this

Spoiler

 

This sentence refers to the decision about the Dark Ritual in DAO, meaning that there is no last-minute plot twist with a similar impact. That would indeed be hard to top, so....no big thing. As for...

Spoiler
That is, IMO, as it should be.
