Playing another playthrough, duh.
Anyways, who else is feeling a huge void after finishing this game? It's hard to let go from an universe which you identify with so much.
Remember when people felt the opposite of this after DA2 and ME3?
Good times.
(I liked both of those games. I'm just pointing out the lack of outrage and hate after them.)

I actually did multiple playthroughs for DA2. ME3 however? Nope.
I am, too. I'll probably be starting my 3rd playthrough here soon. However, due to bugs in companion quests, I may not. I may just wait until Patch 3 comes out.
Wait for the Witcher 3. Comes out this June. Almost equal to Bioware in the choices make a difference and romantic ladies you can romance with very more graphic visuals then Bioware will show up. Aside from Bioware I consider them a near equal. They have choices. Good story telling and if rumors are correct. It's to be open world like this one was.
Yeah, maybe waiting for patches would be a better idea... Anyways, I romanced Dorian on my first playthrough. Next time around, I want to do the Iron Bull romance.

IDGAF about The Witcher franchise.

Ugh. I actually loved DA2 hard, and I played through it a bunch of times, but ME3? Put me off games completely for a good 2 months. I was just hammered.

Play it again, play another game or do something else??

Eeeaaaaagh...
Maybe when it's 5 bucks on Steam. The first Witcher game lasted me about 6 hours before I filed it away as unplayable. It would benefit mightily from *not* being locked into playing as friggin' Geralt.
Hey, I love DA2! Can't argue about ME3 though, only game that has made me feel just empty on completion, I tried to replay it, only made it 7 hours before giving up and playing ME2 again instead.Remember when people felt the opposite of this after DA2 and ME3?

I played DA2 eight times.
Finishing the game is why I'm partially haunting these forums while I wait for a patch, before I continue or restart my second playthrough (just incase things like The Fall 12th mosaic piece require a new game or a fresh 1st time zone into hinterlands to fix etc.). I really didn't get enough when I finished the game and I rarely feel that way after my first playthrough. Well, usually a first playthrough is the only playthrough in even the most enoyable RPGs for me.
Read a book.
Play it again. There is so much to discover.
I tried to hold off a second playthrough, but I just couldn't do it. Once I get it into my head to play a female Dalish rogue I just couldn't resist.
I felt like this the first day or so after. Then I remembered DLC and such, and then got interested in romancing Solas (first time I'll ever play more than one romance). So I feel like there is more for me to look forward to. Gonna hold off on that second playthrough though; want to wait for DLC and patches, and give my husband a chance to play.

Actually, me too. Except a male qunari warrior.
I wanted to hold off until the next patch, since I seem to be bitten by the banter bug. But who knows when that'll ever come around?

i'm one of those people who liked ME3...After the new endings.
I know this feeling. I didn't want it to end. Aside from the main story and villain being incredibly underwhelming, this game was amazing. I'm on my second character but I've since set it to the side to finish a backlog of games. I'll never finish them if I stay on DAI. Playing this game makes me dream about ME4 at night. Using this same design philosophy of exploration and improving on all the flaws DAI had will be a treat to see. Can you imagine the ME1 formula with exploration returning only done right this time? Exploring many worlds in the Mako and finding the next small story off to the side? Bring on ME4 Bioware!

DAI is basicly like a book.

I like the main story.
Play it again with a different world state and a different character of course. Why would you want to leave Thedas?
I'm on my third playthrough. My excitement for the game hasn't waned whatsoever, and each playthrough feels different enough to keep it interesting.
Love this game.
Going to do at least 4 total playthroughs before taking a break.
I like the main story.
It's not bad just not that great either. I felt the villain was too much in the background and never seems to be the big bad he should be. He's too passive as you build. IMO, Bioware's focus is never on main story anyway. It's always just there to be good enough for the characters. Their focus has always been characters and in that regard, DAI has no compromise there which I love. I don't see Bioware games as story-driven but rather character-driven so it's not a huge knock to have a weaker main story. It just needs to be good enough and it is. Other areas of the game reward you well as a fan like finding more lore off to the side.
ME4 has me drooling to see what it's like because we already know it's going to be big worlds like this with the ME1 Mako returning. It will most likely have race customization too and not a set protagonist like Shepard.

Personally, I like the main story because in itself it a metaph for what is wrong with thedus. It almost feel like each major mission is like the visions of budda. Added, the story turn every thing we felt about the factions and lore of da so far on it head.(Except for dwarves which only has Dagna's mention of Titians.) The story to me is about point out all the flaws of thedus and bring out the truth about it and what is...
"The truth is not an end but a beginning. A herald, indeed, shout to the heaves harbinger to a new age."
