So I got DAI on the ps4 (would have preferred on pc but hey ho, gift is a gift) all in all I get the vision and I like the tweaks, nice work getting the area search from Witcher 2 who got it from Heavy Rain, some of the quests have been delicious as well, generally great fun, but a few little things I noticed:


1. jumping and interaction on X, really bad idea when I've got a dragon after me and I stop to pick up some elf root instead of jumping over an obstruction.

2. D-Pad character select keeps bringing up the map randomly, I've already tested with 5 mates to see if I'm going left accidentally but I'm not, it's the game.

3. Audio loses sync on transition to new areas for about 30-60 secs a la Chinese Kung fu film

4. Hair and beards and body positions clip, badly - Blackwall (Beard), Vivienne, Sera, Leliana, FemElf inquisitor (dual wield misaligned, resting arm through thigh, folded arms, feet through the floor) - not pretty.

Right then, pet peeves
- rather than legitimate game issues -

1. Fem elf - too small to sit on a horse, currently doing the splits.

2. Armour (greaves, pauldrons), two handed weapons and daggers are really oversized, two handed weapons especially.

3. Many animations are somewhat stiff and a lot of the armour is seemingly a port from previous games, and could do with some rejigging, resizing, rethinking(?)

4. Still no scabbards (despite some armours sporting sheathed weapons), or hair physics, come on guys you took a lot of good inspiration from the Witcher and rightfully so! They've had this since 2011...

Maybe I'm just another idiot who is feeling entitled, but I just think that for the amount of work put in, these "little" things could have been handled better.

Either way, much love BioWare, great work!

I lol-ed at #1.  :P I have the same issue. What's that, a bear chasing me? Everybody please hold while I mine for some iron.

The hardware module issues don't seem to take favorites - can't count the number of time it just stops to have lunch :D luckily a restart fixes the glitch and a save is not impacted.  Many other errors are far worse.

 

The inept NPC behavior model is why I gather crafting supplies alone.

It's strange because other than some (in my eyes) questionable/odd design decisions it's a rather solid game.
I'm keeping a (gobsmacked) eye on the work started by Ehaloptiram and Warranty Voider at the moment, they are doimg some seriously sterling work!


For the record, I find it has been much more influenced by The Witcher 2 than Skyrim despite what websites are banging on about.

Oversized objects have tradition in Dragon Age. I have no idea why though.

I hope this gets fixed, had this doom me going into a battle. Only fix I know of is to quit to main menu and reload.

I've not had the D-Pad problem but you and Avenger make it seem common. Wonder if it's because I keep mine plugged in and not wireless.

I've really only had it happen twice. I think its random when its encountered.

#1 could be simple as adding a single line of code disabling looting during combat. Same code they use to disable other functions.

I've never had it either. Although I don't often switch characters in battle, to be honest. (And I'm wireless)

The D-Pad thing is a constant for me, today in Emprice du Leon I couldn't switch characters at all during one encounter and ended up dead.
Plugged in or not seems to make no difference, I wonder if patch 3 might clear it up, oh and the whole harvesting during battle lol

With regards to the oversized weapons and armour I agree, there is something of a tradition. It became even more prominent in DA II.
It just seems as though some things got ported over wholesale from the previous 2 entries, I'm wondering what time constraints they had.
Barring the graphics and scope of the game, a lot seems unchanged (animation, weapons, fx) - can't help thinking they could have pushed the engine a lot further.
That said I'm no programmer so this is just childish griping in part from me.
