Pre-orders counts or a lot of the sales.


Even better; so many willing to invest in a winning product.

Personally, when I was not impressed with Diablo or the first Harry Potter film, that was it for me. But Bioware produces one winner right after another, and gathers awards and reviews from those that apparently were not pleased with some prior title, so this has even more merit.

Or maybe so many others were also able to re-map their controls, or were able to enjoy playing rich characters with varied companions like myself.

It seems to have sold well enough to 'pay' for 100+ of them then. Good job either way! :D

All right, yeah. You can kid as you wish but the fact that no review talked about all the problems the PC version have is perfectly fine right? Completely normal right? Yeah... I got it, Their game magically worked perfectly for every single one of them.. ok. People with bugs must really be unlucky.

You do realize that the game the developers showed us before the game was released, is way different than the game they actually published, right?

Considering I am Techless and have less than a top end rig, it would seem that that some are rather unlucky, or that some failed to look at prereq specs; cannot speak to those on consoles, but those reports are also varied.

I often wonder how many people would have canceled their pre-order if they knew what the game would really be like. I for one would have waited for a price drop.

I bought a digital version of the game. Can't sell it to someone else now.

If you acquired it through Origin, you could've refunded the game a week after it becoming playable or 24 hours after launching it for the first time. Can't speak for the consoles' digital stores.

I know I pre-ordered ages ago, but rather doubt so many others did. And while the game is different from Alpha footage, it appears to be much the same as what was shown in the months leading up to release.

But with so much 'obvious evidence' to the contrary, to garnish top honors from so many including investors in quite an accomplishment in itself. Perhaps more credit needs to go to those that make such great videos, trailers, and manage this community.

Bought it via Xbox live.

I pre-ordered a week before release myself.

Shame.

99 percent of the reviews reported no bugs. They also hailed the games as the best game "ever" and all that.

 

 

The marketing and EA's wallet garnished those reviews and awards. Not the game itself.

I had no problems too, how does it matter? Can you ignore the HUGE amount of PC users with problems? Seriously? I guess you are afraid of losing your cleric powers if you stop worshipping your Bioware gods. Correction: Didn't have problems until patch 3 hotfix, now game have massive slowdowns, even with reduced settings, early I couldplay everything on ultra, now even with 2x AA and some settings on high it have huge slowdowns... as people say here, if it isn't broken, fix it till it breaks

Between a conspiracy involving hundreds, or that only the minority experienced major issues, I shall choose the course of least resistance. I mean, the evidence you offer seems to suggest it, too.

Some people think that if they aren't experiencing problems then those who are reporting problems are just overreacting and it must somehow be their fault.

 

Each patch does seem to fix some problems while adding more, i didn't eperience any until patch 2.

Can you prove that it's the minority experiencing problems? Might want to back that up with some evidence. Not everyone experiencing problems is vocal about it.

Can you prove that the majority are experiencing problems? I have not experienced many problems playing on PC. Neither has my husband. A friend of mine plays on PS3 and his biggest complaint was small font (which gave him an excuse to get a bigger tv). Another friend of mine plays on PC and she did have to upgrade to play the game but that's because she was below minimum requirements (tri-core vs. quad-core). I know that's a pretty small pool but so far so good in my camp.

My friends and I could very well be the exception to the rule, but at this point I'm inclined to think that most don't have too many problems and the BSN houses a vocal minority.

You mean the evidence presented on their Facebook page, maybe? Posting about a bug or posting a complaint there gets deleted by the admins. Bad publicity.

 

Posted about a bug 5 times on the DA facebook page, early on. Asked if it would be fixed soon or if someone had a workaround. Turned into one long thread within 10 minutes. Then it got deleted. Seen it happen plenty. It is a common thing on the Fifa facebook page too. Anything remotely "negative" gets deleted asap.

Three patches out already. Wouldn't have been needed if there were hardly any problems.

 

Check out the DA facebook page and look at all the complaints there (before they get deleted). Look at customer reviews and metacritic reviews.

 

LOTS of people are having problems. It is great that you don't, though.

I do know that lots of people are having problems. I'm not trying to diminish that at all and I'm sympathetic to it. I'm just wondering if "LOTS" means the majority of people or the minority. Most people who are not having problems would likely not visit the BSN or Facebook or Twitter to say how great a time they're having.

Anyone that spent in game more than 50+h for that money should not even complain, couse there is not many AAA titles these days that will give you even 30h of gameplay (talking about singleplayer obviously) and to be honest if you managed to play for 50h and after that complaining about how horrible is the game..... seems like disorder or something:)

 

I considered myself very brave spending with game 14h. Haven't played for 2 weeks since game is really boring, and i feel it's designed for less smart console kids.

I may consider finishing It since I always go through game that I buy but I will probably wait for proper sound and banter fix.

If problems were the only issue... This game is soulless. Good music, though. Oh, and conrols.

I hope this doesn't sound snarky, totally don't mean it to be *but* you're using anecdotal evidence, and it's a poor way to come to a decision on well, anything. You can't argue 'because I, nor any of the people around me, are having problems, this must mean the problem must be small', because it's a nonsensical conclusion.

 

You could just peruse the technical support forums for one:

 

http://answers.ea.co...p/DAInquisition

 

Another better way to see if the problems are or may be widespread and to have hard data about it is to recreate the problem itself, something like the 'constant drumming in Skyhold' is easy, because it's widely documented. But things like game breaking bugs, such as the one I had where speaking to Varric to continue the main questline CTD'd me without fail in my first playthrough, is much harder because it didn't on my reroll because I happened to choose a different class and world state.

I kept playing because I was doing all the quests. the devs told me there would be plenty story based quests in each area. I just kept looking, I guess.

Do not use Facebook or most social media sites, and still refuse to give metacritic a second look. But have read of user complaints on Amazon, which is a reason I was able to avoid most of their frustration simply by re-mapping Keys and practicing on the Tac-Cam before leaving the tutorial areas. This was stated in my own review; my first and currently only review there.

The game has problems on consoles too. I was playing it on Xbox One. Can't continue playing due to a bug.
