I had 29 power in the Hinterlands before doing something else.
Same here! I just had so much fun in the Hinterlands, and this game makes a completionist out of me.
If I had a game of the year, definitively, it would be Dragon Age Inquisition. It's not flawless, but it might as well be. ![]()

TL:DR but I can 100% agree to the OP. I've played enough of it to see that this is the game I never knew I wanted to be this way. I haven't played much of it yet, but I can tell you I am a huge fan of the game. If you were around the forum about a month ago you would wee that there was a slew of "what!?!? there taking that away" by many fans of the previous DA games -myself included. But rom what I've seen this is the game I am happy to have put all my eggs in this one basket. My hopes were high at first ever since hearing that there would be another DA game about a year ago. Although I haven't been fallowing the game as close and as long as some people, I had my hopes set high for this game. Then the videos came and I was all aflutter. Then some really shocking news came about many aspects of the game being changed so drastically. I was disapointed to say the least. I started not caring too much about the specifics and details that were talked about so much. Hope faded, and I felt a little piece of me died inside. Then I thought, Well I have the game preordered, I might as well stick with it, and give it a fair shot. So, during this time I started to make some big upgrades to my PC because I wanted to get the full experience of all the games I play and will play. Then the game released and I heard the actual music in game for the first time. I had recently gotten a new audio system for my PC so I had absolutely no complaints about the music. I started it up and the first thing that happened -not 2 min into the game, it crashed and I was lost for words. My Jaw dropped. I knew right away that the game looked absolutely gorgeous, but I couldn't even play it. So i started benching the game and trying all sorts of combinations to be able to actually play. Then, somehow, someway, a miracle happened. I got to the 3rd cutseene. I thought, "OK, this game is playable." Did some more tinkering and low and behold I got to finally play. I was ecstatic. No more crashes, no more crappy FPSes during cut scenes, just play. At this point I had completely forgotten all the things that I had anticipated would completely ruin the game. There was no game breaking mechanic, it didn't matter that I could only use 8 abilities late game, the auto level up didn't seem as drastic in game as I thought. Just. Play. At this point I was getting really exited that this game didn't suck and that it was very pleasantly intuitive and dynamic all at the same time. Then i just sorta took a deep breath and said to myself, "OK, I can see myself playing this game for a crazy amount of time. No need to rush it, Just make the experience the best you possibly can. So that's where I am at right now. I'm not going to rush it. I will have time to play for many many months, maybe several years. Just make the best experience possible. So, that's what I'm doing. I'm not going to worry about completing the game the fastest or be the most knowledgeable about the ins and out of the game. I will just play it. When My PC is set to give me what I desire out of this game I will spend lots of time in the Keep first, then get my character to look just the way I like. Then I wont care about anything else. Just. Play.

I agree. This game is indeed good. Were it not for the clunky PC controls, ugly UI, no walk/run toggle and so on it would even be great. But don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the experience, could have been better though.

This game is REALLY GOOD.
I think it's important for both devs and fans to hear this right now, because BioWare did an absolutely amazing job here and you just can't get enough praise for it. I want to do everything I can to encourage this level of quality in RPG games.
And I want to say this before I finish the game. Given the history of BioWare games I think this caliber of quality can potentially get lost otherwise: ME3 was an absolutely amazing game, but a lot of that was lost due to the bad ending it suffered. So even before I reach the end of DA:I I want to make it clear how much I'm loving this game right now, and how amazing the whole experience has been up to this point.
I fully expect the game to continue impressing me as I dive deeper into the many areas it provides. But come what may, know that you guys did something right.
Great Job BioWare!
Ok I feel better now.
I came to quickly post something similar before I jump back into the game, but above OPs quote sums it up pretty nicely. The game is good and I'm quite happy with my adventure so far [30h in].
Every time I look around it becomes clear enormous amount of effort has been poured into this game. Thank you BW, it looks like you managed to set a new standard for RPGs, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm officially in my fourth region now (Emerald Graves) and again ... my mind is just blown by the enormity of the game. It's absolutely beautiful and huge.
And I keep going back to the Hinterlands to discover new things. I have found that's the better way to try and clear the regions, because after spending ten hours in one area you can get pretty sick of it.
I'm getting used to the combat now. And the lack of healing does not bother me nearly as much as I thought it would. I've only run into a couple of really harry situations and the camps are spread out well enough in each region that by the time you start running low, you're usually close to one any way.
So yeah ... I think I already said it before earlier on this thread, but I wanted to reiterate 35 hours in again how amazing the game is. I think the fact that we aren't seeing an outwave of positive feedback at the moment is because everyone is just so caught up in playing. The only reason I am on here right now is because I have to alternate playing with my boyfriend, who is playing GTA right now.

I'll be honest. I was one of the people who played DA2 over and over again desperate to find a way to love it, and did (eventually) find a character that fit into the story well enough that I liked it...enough. But when I quit that game, I never went back like I did with Origins. Now, game mechanics completely aside, the story was just easier to slide into with a variety of different characters in DAO than in DA2 (in my opinion, which of course is different for everyone!) <speaking of my own experience here, not trying to open THAT particular can of worms again....>
I was wary of this game...very much so in fact because I felt that DA2 took a good idea and rushed it so much that it was barren and devoid of depth. So, I was very hesitant.
But Bioware, you did it right this time. So far (with a few days completely lost in front of my computer screen) I am loving the game. The environment is much more immersive: making it easy to feel lost in a world instead of simply a level and the cast of characters are varied enough that it brings MY character to life. In a way that I love, the story has given my character a life of her own, and sent her off in ways I would not normally have anticipated (at all!)...and i LIKE that. I guess I am character and story driven in my heart and that is what appeals to me. I already look forward to going back, creating new characters and seeing how they flesh out.
I was SO outspoken about DA2's failings (and successes) that it only felt right to speak now of where this one, in my opinion so far in early days, easily surpasses its closest predecessor.
Bioware, I don't know how this one was done differently than the last, or what sort of blood loss was incurred in order to fight to get what you needed to make this so, but for the love of all that is holy, please do it again.
I love the world of Dragon Age, and perhaps yes, we all will tend to think "quality" is labelled most accurately when aligned with our own preferences and think anything to the contrary is a general failing (ha!) but still...I think this is a great game. My characters ugly hair (ugh) has even grown on me. And if I can tolerate that, it is a good game.

A thread where we can praise the game and its creators? Good.
I've just reached Skyhold. Honestly, I don't know how the devs did that, but this game is everything I ever hoped.
I had to quit the game, becaue of all the emotions it invoked.
Also...Solas. I believe this is the one character I've always wanted to meet. Many thanks to the Writing Team for amazing story I always wanted to play. ![]()

Dunno I had to return it because I couldn't play it because it was unstable and unoptimized. So I can't say if it's good or not.
In all honesty apart from the controls/camera frustrations, if it DID run for everyone it actually could be a great game from what I have seen of it.

I find this game has been met with a lot of positive feedback, actually. I've seen so few complaints, compared to what the release of other games usually get.

This game is so amazing, that it really makes me wonder - what would happen with DA2, if it had 3 years of development time instead of 1?
Imagine no reused maps, seemless Kirkwall with no loading screens the size of Hinterlands, graphical fidelity at an absolutely highest level, incredible amount of detail, the kind of story quality we have in Inquisition...
Damn you EA.
