I kinda like all three of them equally but for different reasons.  Dorian in DAI is my everything.  He makes this game for me in so many ways.  And Hawke with her well defined personality and bond with her sister was great - it's so rare to see siblings in games who always have each others backs and genuinely love each other (heck even Carver still had Hawke's back).  And Origins just had so much depth. 

[Akrabra]

Origins is like Batman Begins. Good story, good intro into the franchise with very little overall flaw.

 

Inquisition is like The Dark Knight Rises. On the surface, all seemed fine and dandy but the more you looked into it, things start getting downhill really badly.

 

& no, 2 is not like The Dark Knight. not even remotely. 

The Dark Knight Rises is way better than The Dark Knight!

[MiyuEmi]

Origins.  I was more involved in the story in Origins and for me personally, that's what these games are about.  The companions and the story.

Dragon Age Origins was my favourite Dragon Age Origins.

Origins is still one of my favorite games ever, and one that I've replayed multiple times. Loved the characters, the world-building, the different paths available, the tactical nature of the combat, etc. It also benefited from some great mods that improved the experience and increased its replay value.

 

I enjoyed Inquisition a lot - the environments and graphics are beautiful, and there are some fun and memorable characters - but there's a bit too much filler for it to be attractive for replays, the plot is barely there, and after a while the combat just felt like a lot of button-mashing and skill-spamming rather than anything really tactical. I don't mind action RPGs (I think the combat in Dragon's Dogma is amazing), but it felt like Inquisition couldn't decide if it wanted to be an action RPG or a tactical one, and ended up somewhere in the middle without really being great at either.

 

But I don't know, I had the benefit of playing Origins with all the DLC and campaigns so it felt like a fuller experience, so maybe if they release more content for Inquisition and explore the characters and world a bit more my opinion will improve a bit (mods wouldn't hurt either). From a gameplay perspective though, I still prefer the combat in Origins.

Let's put it like this. I have played through the entirety of Origins with twelve different characters on all available difficulty settings including two nightmare runs with a mage and an archer, and I loved every single playthrough. Only the fade quest became a little repetitive after four or five times.

 

With Inquisition, I have to say, I enjoyed the first playthrough on normal, on the second playthrough on hard my savegame got corrupted after 50 hours... and now I am on my third playthrough on nightmare, but am getting CTDs and reboots in the last couple of weeks, so this is not much fun at all anymore... But even if the game was more stable, all the shard collecting, meaningless fetching quests and so on make multiple playthroughs a little bit of a chore. I cannot bring myself to simply skip all the side quests and collecting.

 

Also, the different Origin-stories in the first two hours of DA:O made the game sooo interesting. On top I always looked forward to how different NPCs would react to my character e.g. the Dalish being mean to a shem character, but super nice to an elf.

 

In conclusion, I prefer Origins.

[Amirit]

Origins.  Is it even a serious question?

[katykuns]

DA:O. Inquisition and DA2 just kinda made me want to play Origins all over again. I won't be truly happy until they basically release DA:Origins 2. 
 

I enjoyed the story of DA2, I liked the companions. I found the lack of character customisation, and no different races frustrating. There were quite a few other things that annoyed me. Both Inq and DA2 have had disappointing endings.
I loved the crafting in Inq, and the companions (esp Dorian) and their quests. I disliked the huge number of side quests that weren't particularly interesting. I loved the graphics of Inq though. Also, two minor complaints... 1. the HAIR! and 2. The awful Skyhold outfit!

[NaclynE]

Tough call

 

DAO/DAA had a big story and really felt pretty darn epic. I liked playing a origin story then playing the actual game. Also there were alot of races to pick and classes.

 

DAI brought back the whole race system and added qunari (finally) and the world seemed pretty big and open. It's also less zone to zone like DAO/DAA but as far as epicness it's kind of less epicy as DAO/DAA where in DAO/DAA your trying to gather allies to take down a big....huge...horde of guys while in DAI Corypheus seems to be taking his time to do evil stuff.

 

While DAO/DAA and DAI had pluses and minuses I defenetly say DA 2 cannot hold a candle to either two/three. I had a major problem being only a human guy/girl named Hawke playing a very set story where you don't make any big decisions like you can in DAO/DAA or DAI. I mean seriously in DAO/DAA you can pick elves or werewolves to live, who should rule ferelden, who will be king of the dwarves, you is your love interest and a few other big things. DAI determines who will rule Orlais and which faction you should keep and who will be divine. DA 2?.....Who you romanced? I mean seriously nothing really big or important. 

 

I suppose what i am saying is DAO?DAA

[FaWa]

DAO definitely, it is a classic and my favorite fantasy game ever. I can't decide if it's my favorite game of all time (ME3 is tied with it. yes, ME3.)

DAI had too many weird design decisions that ended up really taking away from the experience. Open World was the source of major problems all around for me. Just my opinion.

[IgnitedTobi1]

Origins, then Inquisition. Never played DA:2.

[LucyMaire]

Or.i.gins. 

[DragonKingReborn]

Origins - by a hair - over Inquisition.  In fact, if Inquisition had a more engaging and satisfying final battle (and the Origins/2 tactics system) it would be first.  But as it stands - Origins.

[DragonKingReborn]

The Dark Knight Rises is way better than The Dark Knight!

 

Um....what?

[Mark of the Dragon]

Origins was the better game overall. Better atmosphere, more interesting and coherent story, and in my opinion better characters. It also had a better antagonist.

 

Inquisition had better gameplay though.

[TrouserSnake]

Definitely Origins. No question.

[Vicious]

Inquisition. Origins is too heavy with the rails. Sure, now that I can finally do some exploration in DA:I the main quest in Origins feels great, but at the time I just wanted to poke around this amazing world, not just 'do the main quest at these 3 places then go save the world' KOTOR formula.

 

 

Inquisition was a lot closer to Baldur's Gate 2 than any of Bioware's other recent games. Main quest you can follow as well as tons of other stuff to do and enjoy, locales to see, dragons to fight and etc.

[Legion of 1337]

Its blatantly obvious that The Elder Scrolls has finally made an impression on Bioware. And lets be hones t here, Thedas as never been better captured, and ill dismiss anyone who thinks this is the wrong direction to take things as a fool. Imagine how awesome Mass Effect would have been if it had worlds constructed like this.

Inevitably, if you open up your game like this you're going to slow the pacing because the player can get sidetracked. I think bioware would have done well to open up one new area after each main quest rather than dump them all on you all at once, providing a significant sidequest as an strong incentive to go there and pace yourself. Also the Hinterlands is too ****** big, and the shard/astrarium **** is pointless. Many of the sidequests you do are beneath your importance - why the **** is the inquisitor putting flowers on some random grave to please some random elf in Redcliffe?

Now adm8ttedly, these kind of problems arent unique. They plague every sandbox rpg, its just that Bioware fell into the trap of copying them. If they can fix their approach to sidequests to make them relevent and interesting, and if they can finally fix whatever has been plaguing their ability to write good plots of late (Inquisition is the best post-Origins plot to date, they just mucked the ending), theyd be fine.

You can ****** about the teething problems but at some point games like Inquisition and the Witcher 3 need to be made so we can figure out how to combine the exploration and scale of sandbox rpgs with the storytelling of linear rpgs.

no

[DragonKingReborn]

What tesla said....about a thousand times.

[cindercatz]

DA:O, DA:I, DA2 in that order.

But DA:I does some things better than any of them. The bland sidequests with no real presentation quality and problems with what they did with combat bring it down overall, but it's great in places.

[Neoideo]

Very hard question, each one has something that makes it stand out.

 

If we could combine the story telling way of DAO, with the low-scale plot of DA2 into the massive world and combat of DAI (I find the combat of DAI better than DA2's), we could have the perfect game.

 

In the meanwhile, despite all the critics I have made about specific aspects of the game,

 

My vote goes to DA:I

 

because I like the direction the game is taking in terms of technical achievements; graphics, world scale, some physics, combat animations to name some. With DAI, Bioware has shown to me that they are really ambitious and that they are actually capable of doing really impressive things. After such great leap in technical quality, I now expect that the next game will focus more on a player-touching story and interaction with the world.

I would like to see horrible side quests come back (I will never forget broodmother), really creepy codexes that lead to interesting quests on the open world, I want to see my character really beaten down to the lowest level so there is a real motivation. Just as an example, imagine your character having a wife and a 1 year old son, play 2 or 3 hours doing some very low scale quests and having lovely cutscenes with the family as well as interesting dialoge, then suddenly something very horrible happens to them, the murderer beats you down and runs away, but he is not the final boss, there is something deeper involved that gets uncovered throughout the story, and may or not be solved. That sounds similar to DA2 and Hawke's family story, so probably the future is to make a plot just similar to DA2 with much more development time, and not told by Varric. There are ways of making that sort of story non-trivial with interesting plot twists that could lead to mayor implications to the point of filling a whole game story, without making it a Jean-Claude Van Damme revenge film, even when I love them.

[AlexiaRevan]

I vote for DA 2!

The Dark Knight Rises was garbage.

[Lebanese Dude]

Both.
