Hey guys, first post here. I registered because I didn't find a way to directly contact Bioware. I guess their forums is as close as it can get.

So, I was about to write an extensive piece about my huge disappointment in front of that really lame ending. But then I found out this post, which really sums up my thoughts :

http://johnswritersb...ge-inquisition/

 

I would add this : DA2 was really a huge disappointment, story and gameplay-wise. DA:I managed to set the standard back to the continuity of DA:O, both in the narratives and the gamplay (or, at least, way closer).

And then, Bioware screws us on the ending. I mean, what. the. hell. I bought the game, thinking it as a last chance for Bioware to convince me that the times of them making games like DA:O or ME2 (that ending was so awesome) wasn't over. That they could still make it.

But it seems it's not. I'm sorry, Bioware, I won't buy any of your games ever again. You managed to fail an otherwise rather awesome game in a 10 minutes final mission. I guess that's some kind of achievement.

The ending starts way before the final battle. The final battle is a hail mary pass by Cory.

[Former_Fiend]

Am I really the only one who did not find the final battle anti-climatic at all?

[Former_Fiend]

Would have been better if it was in the Black City. And is better if it's one-on-one (Knight-Enchanter All Day!) with Cory and you let Morrigan drink from the Well. Herald and his dragon vs Elder and his dragon.

I would have f*cking hated that sh*t.

The "ending" starts during What Pride Had Wrought. The final battle makes sense within the context it takes place, and while it could have been a bit more challenging, I would hardly call it anticlimactic.

The ending is alright, I think it suffers from the fact that the pacing in the game is off all together, and that there are less main quest missions here or they are more noticable this time around. The ending is fine, it is just the stuff before the ending with the whole game's pacing that is the problem IMO

[Steelcan]

Its all overly "safe" which slightly annoys ,and slightly amuses me

 

After the trainwreck on top of a 200 car pile up that was ME3's ending its nice to see that BioWare can pull itself out of its own ass, on the other hand a little bit of ambition is perhaps called for

If Cory actually got into the Black City, he'd be a god. How would we fight him?

 

Besides, storywise, the fight seems to be one on one anyway while everyone else cleans up demons.

Ha, if the ending of this game, which wasn't all that bad, is what makes you lose faith, then wow.

I was disappointed with it too. Like a lot, but come on people, 10 minutes of mediocre is enough to get you to swear off their games?

The problem I had is the last mission has no buildup to the fight, it just starts. Really not a good move to just teleport to the fight. Otherwise the endings alright.

[Former_Fiend]

Why?

 

Because it's too big. Too epic. Too out of scale with everything else, both within this game and within the series as a whole. 

 

As it stands, fighting one of the ancient magisters who pierced the veil and invaded the heavens along with his false arch demon phylactery upon the floating ruins of a sacred temple is pushing the boundaries of what I'm prepared to accept in this series. Having that same fight in the blighted throne of the gods would have tipped that scale with a damned anvil.

I was a bit disappointed with the difficulty of the fight. I had more of a challenge on a few of the dragon fights than I did with Corphyfish. He wasn't nearly dead enough for the cut scene to trigger. 

[Steelcan]

I wonder if the "anti-climactic" feel would be alleviated if Corypheus was actually a challenge to kill >.>

 

KE can kill him so quickly the game glitches because it goes past the point where the cutscenes are supposed to trigger

[Br3admax]

Doesn't he actually have to sit on the 'Maker's Throne'?

He was there far longer than we were.

Knight-Enchanter is a glitch

[Master Race]

Anti climatic for sure. It did not feel like an ending or a final boss fight it felt like fighting the main boss's lieutenant first before you get to the real big bad.

[AlexiaRevan]

coryphenus was dissapointing . The fight...was a bit muh . The Ending ? was a bit muh.....

 

But I still like the whole game though . and still have many map to visit and see...I rushed my 1st playtrough and skipped alot . 

 

And I liked DA2 better then DAO

There's no "oomph" to the ending, but it's not bad.

 

As people have pointed out, the ending really starts when you go to the Arbor Wilds. If you do that mission, then putz around for 20 hours, and then defeat Cory, it does feel a lot less satisfying. Unfortunately, there is no game mechanism telling you this.

Yeah, they should have made The Arbor Wilds the point of no return.  Also, I'm still mad that after the final mission, Skyhold looks partially cleared out, it just feels wrong.  The Inquisition is supposed to continue, dammit!  

[Jaulen]

War.Of.Attrition.

 

Look it up.

 

 

DAI wasn't a brawl.

 

 

Could the pacing have been better after Arbor Wilds? Yes.

 

(Listen to what Leli and everyone says after the Arbor Wilds/Well of Souls (you have to fill in the blanks based on what people say....you know, reading/listening comprehension).....Corphy's army has been routed......he'd in hiding. It's mentioned he's going to lay low to build forces back up.....but then you've whittled away so much of his forces and support by that time, there IS no building back up for him, the last fight is a last ditch hail mary pass of a desperate Darkspawn...and really, he has no chance of suceeding)

 

 

Could there have been a scene getting you to the point you face Corphy? Yes, and was badly needed the *poof* all of a sudden there....badly paced.

 

 

Was the ending great? Not if you were expecting a big army vs army brawl. Not if you weren't paying attention. Not if you let the momentum go after Arbor Wilds and putzed around aimlessly (I putz around and figure it's me squelching the last remaining bits of any Corphy support....while also trying to find where he is). Bioware could have paced it better, and given a couple of scenes to hit people over the head with 'This is endgame!' Also made Corphy harder...he should have kept his powers from DA2 in addition to the red beam. But was the ending so sucky? For people who appreciate subtlety, no. (it wasn't perfect by any means)

[herkles]

the big way to show this off easier would be that if there was a main quest to Emprise Du Lion and the Hissing Wastes were you routed and destroyed the Red Templars and Venatori. Of course I think the game's pacing would have improved a whole lot if each zone had a main quest tied to it.
