What a disaster this release has been, like many i'm sure were expecting probably the best game of the year but quickly turned into probably the wrost experience this year.
The sad part is the game is still gonna rack up game of the year awards across all platforms. But I agree with you, at least from a long-time PC gamer standpoint, it was a huge disappointment and left me feeling robbed for pre-ordering a deluxe edition.

How is it sad a game you didn't like is going to get awards? Is it sad when a kid you don't like at school gets a good grade despite you thinking his paper was bad? This opinion that Bioware needs to hang their head in shame as well as be publicly ridiculed for this game due to the vocal minority (mainly only in this section, and largely this thread) disliking design decisions as well as having bugs is pretty funny.
There is actually 2 small fixes that would turn the game from unenjoyable to enjoyable for me. When I give one of my party members a command, he should bloody well finish it before going back to autoattacking. And a decent overview with Tac cam (I could play without it but then I go back to my first pet peeve).
Or what would also fix most issues:
I really really want one of the previous 2 AI options back, why can't I tell Solas to barrier when Cassandra takes damage cause her guards gone. Or use winters grasp to cc that mage that appeared. I used to be able to, why the **** are you forcing me to micromanage when you want to go more action rpg direction.
In conclusion I wish I hadn't missed the 24h refund window on origin, now I can only pray they fix this crap someday.

I have no problem with the game winning console game of the year awards--apparently it plays fine there. But judged as a PC game, and in particular a game that advertised itself as being PC friendly, a game with such shoddy controls and companion AI that inspires 300 pages of discontent on a forum is not GOTY material. You figure for all the people that posted on this forum specifically complaining about it, there are probably at least ten others that are dissatisfied and either didn't bother posting anywhere cause they moved on (kudos to them) or they went to another forum or a subreddit. Hell, maybe there were people that just didn't care enough about a crappy interface and they pushed through and ended up enjoying the storyline enough that it didn't bother them that the mechanics were bad. Maybe, people just started playing with a controller because clearly the game was not optimized for KB+M. In both those last two scenarios, the players are realizing the mechanics are crap and finding a way to work around it or ignore it. Doesn't change the input mechanics are bad.
Like I said in my previous post, I tried to get into the game. I liked the story, and graphically I thought it was beautiful (made me happy to have bought a 970). But the game, from an input/interface standpoint, is poorly optimized for PC. A PC game should not be the PC Game of the Year if it is not properly optimized for the platform.
I'm probably low balling the number of people that didn't bother to come here and complain about it.

I know many of us are waiting for news on the timing of Patch 3. Has anyone tweeted Mark Darrah about it (I don't have an account, so I can't)? Or maybe could someone ask him a bigger question that we might get an answer to....like will the patch be available in weeks, or more than 3 months, or more than 6 months?
The devs only reply to tweets from people praising their game without reserve. I have tweeted many times and NEVER received a reply. Maybe because I am not female (let's be honest, if I made a female twitter account with a pretty picture, they would fall over their feet replying) or maybe because I am honest about my concerns. They can't seem to handle even constructive criticism...

Good job at twisting people's words around!
Waiting till patch 3 to fix the shitty AI and the massive popin problem on some maps.
what i would like to add is that game compagnies communicating through things like twitter or redit are doing it WRONG
communicate through your own website (this one) please
i dont have twitter and i dont want twitter, and when i want to see news about the game i come
here.

This...like the cake...was a lie.
This is obviously a third person hack em up with a token ancillary party system.
I would have been happier with the game I think had they gone full hack and slash for the combat instead of the horrible hybrid they've created.
Thinking about it the game seems like it would fit the action controls from the old Conan hack and slash game.

Exactly, doing something in the middle like this makes both aspects mediocre. Either go tactical like original dragon age or totally like witcher 2 type combat or hack and slash combat. You cannot do both, they are far too different.

"Why is DAI so awesome on PC?"
Ummmm.....it is? I don't think so.
"The combat HUD was created specifically for PC"
By someone who's never played a single game on PC. Fair enough.
"You'll be super super pleased with it"
Nope, not feeling it.
"Stuff they said they couldn't have"
- 4-legged creatures? Got it!
- Ability to walk? Nope, too complicated.
- Tac Cam... Don't want to talk about it
WHAT. A. JOKE.

How sad are you licking Biowares butthole like an eager trolling toadie ? If the game is so perfect then sod off and go play it instead of commenting in a thread where nobody gives a hump what you think.You and your opinion has no place in this thread so take a hike sheep.
no patch 3 (controls/tac cam/UI) ETA yet? I have a looong christmas holiday (a full week!) and could play something awesome... no?
if not there's always Shadowrun, Wasteland 2 and maybe i'll check out Witcher 2 although 'console port' doesn't sound very good atm (too much trauma!)

I wish it didn't have to come to this, Bioware!

The situation here is more like the best kid of the school got 70 points out of 100. That does not mean he/she will get to be the best every year with this performance and getting the criticism that he/she deserves because of this fact.

Seeing as they tried to implement a walk button for patch 2 but had to remove it because it wasn't working properly, I wouldn't hold up much hope for a proper PC control scheme and UI. Although I'd very much like to be proven wrong.
How hard is to push a key to walk/run??

when the game in question is built around consoles, who knows...

I have, included links to both this thread and Bioware's misleading video we all know about also cited Darrah's total lack of communication since Nov 26th on a thread he created, I'm doubtful anything will come of it given the way games media operates but here's hoping

Awesome! I emailed them too. They (Pc Gamer) asked for the feedback, so here is hoping these issues are brought to light...

Done.
My English is not so good, but I think, I explained every aspect well enough. Hope they will listen.

Interesting story for those interested in seeing how social media can work for "the little guy". United would have done nothing for this guy had it not been for a 10% drop in stock price and huge losses. This was before the "social media craze" of today where companies look at Facebook and Twitter as free advertising.
Anyway, I often think about how companies like EA/Bioware leverage social media and how those very systems might expose them if not managed properly. Honestly, I am very surprised that a public company like EA allows their employees to participate in social media as, like it or not, they represent the corporate entity.
Anyway back to regularly scheduled "PC Community Concerns"
Done.

Worth a shot, thanks!
