first of all for all those people playing on pc who cant believe that all the pc reviewers love the game... they are using a controller, get with the 21st century and quit using your mouse for *insert whatever god you worship here* 's sake.

 

No, i have no issues with this game.  I play console, so i have no controller issues, i have no story issues either, because its the story the developers wanted to tell, not the story i wanted them to tell.  If i wanted them to tell the story i want them to, i wouldnt be playing the game, i would be creating it.  the game's main story is done pending any dlc, get over it, nothing will change it.  enjoy it for what it is, not what you think it should be.

 

 

What!!??

 

First, I don't know you but I have a great pc and I want to play a game that was advertised all the way until the very last day before it was released, as created for pc users by pc users, without the need of a controller, which as you mentioned, is a console game device. I can understand (since you admitted you are playing the game on a console) you don't know the big difference between playing a pc game that was built on a pc platform using your mouse and keyboard and playing the same game but when it was built on a console platform and then badly ported to pc. There is absolutely no way you would like to use a controller in the first scenario because M and K give you a level of precision that it's impossible to achieved using a controller.

 

Second, unless you were the one who delivered the version of the game that was used to play by the reviewers and met each one of them and got the opportunity to watch them play, there is no way you could possibly know if they were all using controllers. My guess is that's not the case since many of them (even those who gave the game a high score) were complaining on how buggy and glitchy the game was (for more proof, just check the list of issues that devs were trying to fix in the second patch).

 

I don't hate the game. It has many things I thoroughly enjoyed, like very well written companion's characters, beautiful and vast environments and several immersive quests. That is when I managed to move forward fighting much more crashes, glitches and freezings than enemies and dragons. But yes, the main story was bland and I don't think the writing was very successful in that aspect. The main villain had a lot of writing potential but, in my opinion, as the game approached to a conclusion, Coriphaeus seems to be smaller and smaller and less powerful than he was in DA2 DLC (considering that in Legacy he was just waking up after a long forced slumber), which is more evident in the final battle that it felt rushed and underwhelming. It left me thinking "what the hell was all the inquisition building for just to go to a floating ruin at the end and beat the crap out of an already defeated darkspawn using only three of my companions.

That's seriously not the point.
If you don't play RPGs on PC, then don't tell us what to expect and hope for.

KB and M has a much better base for RPG games, especially when it comes to stat sorting, inventory, party selection,  etc.
There is a reason why all PC-based games have a grid-designed inventory. It's easy to use, easy to sort through, you have a much better view of what you're actually carrying, etc.
Instead, we're handed this menu-into menu-into menu list of 3 items, etc., that is so obviously suited for consoles.

I don't care how the game plays on a console. Personally, I don't want to play a Dragon Age game on a console, I expect it to be PC-optimized, with deep, tactical combat, where my click-and-drag mouse and keyboard controls are actually better.
DA:O had it right, console controls and console gaming for consoles (no tactical camera), and PC optimized for PC gamers (tactical camera, full party selection etc.).
 
I play Dark Souls on a controller. And AC and Uncharted, etc.

I don't want to be limited to playing with a controller in freaking DA because they went the way of the "lowest common denominator".
 
If that's too hard to understand, and you go around telling people to "get with the program and use controller in the 21st century"....
Well then, I dunno what to tell you.
 
And that's just the inventory I very briefly talked about.
 
..
 
I don't hate the game.
It's not great, but it isn't terrible. It's "good". It's "okay. A 7-7.5/10.

But is it a disappointment?
Yep. Especially in the way that Bioware keeps moving away from their RPG roots.
The same audience and the same fans that made them big in the first place are being shoved aside in order to try and attract your COD/GTA gamers.

Ahahahahaha, oh my. COD and GTA gamers...do you just string words together? I wasn't aware Inquisition was a FPS with poorly written characters, jets, M16's and 360 no scopes with 12 year old children cussing none stop.

Actually, DA 2 is still considered the worst one from the general feedback.


Maybe, but ive seen people talk about how DA2 is superior to DA:I, people seem to be never happy here, i expect when DA4 is released it'll get the same treatment & DA:I will be put on pedestal compared to it

DA2 is superior to DA:I, although it isn't a good game and doesn't deserve to be put on any pedestal. It is just "less bad".

Hate is quite strong, I do understand that after dishing out hard earned money you get a inferior product than expected or something  different than what the package describes, this can generate more than just disapointment. The why being well informed is to avoid those kind of situations.

 

The game at is core is a single player MMO, it has all the specifics. Suikoden was expecting a RPG and didnt get it, no wonder hes not happy with his purchase.

 

Never I saw so much strong media hype for products in the last 10 years, which in most case they are misleading.

I love the game. Really, I think it's amazing. But if we're talking hate... releasing a patch with absolutely no testing done? Or if testing was done, then the level of incompetence is simply unacceptable. That was really infuriating. And it was them shooting themselves in the leg for no reason whatsoever. Would it have killed them to release the patch 1-2 days later, after testing done? Eh. Anyway, they were quick to fix the blunder, so all is sunshine and rainbows again :)

No. Are you playing dumb? You must be.

 

The COD and GTA games are classic examples of games which you get your hands on and play casually -  because it's designed for casual gaming.

Replace COD/GTA with Uncharted or anything you like really, the point is, it's designed for gamers who don't have the time or the interest to delve deeply into that world, to understand the lore or the mechanics etc.

Many other games are designed like that, and that's perfectly fine.

 

But NOT when they're suppose to be deep, tactical RPGs.

 

DA:I is  targeted at the crowd who are NOT RPG fans.

 

...

 

If you have problems understand that, or what I'm trying to say, and ridiculously comparing DA:I to COD/GTA in actual gameplay...

Well then, I can't really help you.

Pretty much agree with you.

 

RPG is my favourite genre, but DAI is an offline MMO not a RPG. It plays exactly like a MMO with endless meaningless side quests that have no bearing on the story or characters and have no RPG engagement because there is no interaction with NPC's and the only thing you get is "power". Pointless.

 

The world (beautiful, yes) is too big so its crammed with these meaningless fetch quests that do not tie into the story or characters in anyway. There is no linear progression of story, characters or world environment that are the back bone of RPG's. Instead you move constantly from zone to zone doing these meaningless side quests at the expense of immersion and impact. There is no sense of progression or anything changing. There are also no consequences to decisions like in previous games. Its trouble and risk free gaming. Where are the heart ache, WTF or what should I do moments?

 

The main story is unbelievable given the back plot of Templars and Wardens and is actually very short. I thought at first that it was similar to other Bioware games but its not.

 

There are too many characters that detract from their own story and impact with you. Why do we need 3 warriors, 3 mages and 3 rogues? Too many. Better to cut down and expand on a core group of characters to increase interactions, personal quests and back stories.

 

A couple of the romance stories are Disney in style and given that the game is mature in content it just makes me feel like Bioware gave up at some point and simply said "that'll do, that'll do".

 

PC controls are a joke. How Bioware could sign these off and put their stamp of approval on the PC version baffles me.

 

I don't hate DAI. There are moments that are funny and engaging but these are few and far between.

 

5/10

If I hated the game I believe I wouldn't be playing it each evening, unless I also somehow hated myself.

Again, I have too say what a joke as I have played RPG's since I was 7 and guess what? I enjoy Inquisition. My copy of Origins must of been defective, because all I did was set up four to five per determined tactics and proceeded to face stomp the game( I would hardly call that deep and or tactical ).

I somewhat like the game Becuase I usually play another game after I made the war table decisions. This game isn't as good as DAO where I would at least fail to notice how much time has pass while playing.

I think we have just been tricked here its because of all the sidequests that it likes very big well okay the environments are very nice.. but what about the talents and abilities you had in origins there is far less in dai gets very boring the fighting. Also why is the hair so gloomy/shiny unrealistic.. if i could get my money back i would do that!

I love this game, and I love the gameplay. And I say this as someone who has been playing the old classic tactical RPGs for the last ten years. Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Fallout, etc. Love all those games, always will, but I think this is better.

I know great many people who would love to take that problem from you and buy your copy with 30 EUR/36 USB, if you really hate it that much.

 

But yeah, I guess it's a matter of taste really, I personally love 'slow' games like this where I get to choose my own pace. Though I can totally see why especially completionist and people who're use to more fast gameplay might be fusturated with DA:I. You can't please them all and it's alright.

Positive, 'professional' reviews got me again, just like with DA2 (I did enjoy ME3 though).

 

My issues with the game after having completed it.

 

1) The main story-line can be completed in under 15 hours if you avoid sidequests (took me 17 with random sidequests here and there).

 

 

it's like you are just purposefully not playing most of the game,

 

I logged 90 hours as a first play through doing pretty much every quest

I also like the slow lazy games thats why I like the elder scrolls. Thats the original slow game they tried to do that with inquisition i guess. I dont really feel it or something. Happy for others if they do like this game. .
