Skyrim isn't the only game with such world and it isn't the base model of open-world ideas. There are a lot of RPG with that style you never know. You should not have to base your opinion on Skyrim.

I stopped from the first one.

I do not believe that Bioware borrowed from Skyrim that much. Bioware actually borrowed more from their own game Baldur's Gate 1 design wise. BG1 being Bioware's first entry with a semi open world crpg which came out December 1998. So Bioware tooks design choices from BG and updated them using the Frostbite engine. IMHO.

Seriously, the first Assassin's creed was not good.

DA:I follows the typical Bioware formula established in ME2. Hero must save world, Hero must gather allies to defeat Corypheus.Saren/Darkspawn/reapers. I quite enjoyed the open questing. On my second playthrough I completely skipped the exalted plains and Emerald Wastes. I dreaded having to go through the Orlesian Ball again. My main problem is that unless I am on Nightmare, I quickly outgrow much of the game very quickly.

Oh man, if Dragon Age ever became like Assassin's Creed, the franchise would surely be dead to me.

 

I refuse to buy anything published by Ubisoft. Everything they've made tries to shove DLC down our throats.

The Skyrim comparisons are not totally off base.

 

 Any RPG with sales numbers in the tens of millions is guaranteed to have a lot of impact on the industry, like it or not, and we can see that impact with DA:I and the upcoming sequel to The Witcher. Cash is king.

Especially when the budget of major games runs into the hundreds of millions. For this reason I oftentimes like to enjoy Indie games. I honestly hated Witcher 2. I found the story incredibly dry and boring, and felt too much like a Hentai sex game.

To be fair, this argument can be made for Call of Duty. I'm sure CoD: Tactical Pillow Fight is due any day now.

I beg to differ the series was good up until Revelations. After that the series took a nosedive.

DAI is way more like Kingdoms of Amalur than Skyrim.

Kingdoms of Amalur is a joke gone bad.

 

[Chenoah]

The only Skyrim thing this game totally didn't need was mounts.  And this coming from someone who loves mounts.  They need to 1) let banter play while mounted and 2) let mounts actually scale steep slopes (what's the point if I still always have to go the long way around?) or else just forget about the mounts and make the areas smaller and more navigable. 

 

*Edit* I actually liked Kingdoms of Amalur. 

I have never once used a mount and I have several different character. I agree. Utterly pointless. I also like Kingdoms of Amalur ^^ Except for the sky people DLC or whatever it was, I forgot the name.

Nah, they did better with 2 but it got worse.

[KaiserShep]

Yeah I third the sentiment on the mounts. I've used them on occasion, but the two major strikes against them for me are that they don't go fast enough to make for a compelling option for traveling across the terrain, and they decrease the likelihood of hearing more banter. If the entire party was able to travel on mounts of their own, and banter was intact, you know we'd be some red hart and horse riding fools.

Only 2 was good.

[Melca36]

Please stop trying to speak for everybody. Some of us happen to like this game. Yes its not perfect but we are getting our moneys worth. We also have the patience to see what content they plan to re add in the game

They are only good for hissing waste.

Surprise surprise, people like different games for different reasons. I also like DAI.

Varric: Heh, you can say that again.

 

Cassandra: Indeed.

Aww, don't say that. I just bought it during the steam sale.

Lucky it was only about five bucks.

[Lewie]

Just no. They have tried to dish out copies of the original after Revelations and it hasn't worked has it. I love the fact that I am still so invested in DA's story, with new protagonists each time too. Bioware is doing something right.

[Arl Raylen]

DAI felt more like Kingdoms of Amalur to me than Skyrim. Bethesda is just better at giving you the tools to headcannon. Sidequests in Skyrim feel like they have more meaning (except for the infinite misc ones).

[Nefla]

As both a BioWare fan and a TES fan, I'd say they failed pretty spectacularly at capturing any of the things I like about Skyrim while at the same time watering down or cutting out the things I like about Dragon Age.

[Precursor Meta]

As a Skyrim fanatic, I disagree. To me the game is trying to be like an RPG.
