One of the absolute worst endings I've played. Worse than ME 3.

So all of this is because the boss battle isn't hard enough? This is what gaming has come to.

 

It's not that, it's just that how easy they made him ruined the immersion by making it feel like the entire conflict was too easy.

Does that also mean you think Josephine shouldn't have returned since she was there with the ruler of Orlais?


The problem is that then Bioware would effectively be stuck just with you, the party you took at the wilds, and Morrigan for the finale. I think they chose to ignore the plot for the sake of letting you pick your own party and not having Morrigan essentially assume the role of all 3 advisors.

As much as I loved the Suicide Mission, I feel that it would cheapen it by having it on repeat. They should certainly notice and incorporate some popular elements of it, but not have it almost the same.


The elements really amount to your whole party being involved in the endgame doing important tasks. That's really it. That's not hard to copy.

But does Hawke die?
"The world fears the inevitable plummet into the abyss. Watch for that 
moment...and when it comes, do not hesitate to leap. It is only when you
fall that you learn whether you can fly." -Flemeth speaking to Hawke
The name of the quest is "Here Lies the Abyss."
 
Does he die???  ;) you decide maybe for the next DA

I've read an article in UK PC Gamer recently, where they've admitted that "Alistair is currently 10% alive".... not 0, despite the possibility of leaving him in the Fade. 10% means that the likelihood of him making a comeback are small, but not entirely ruled out.

 

I assume it's same with Hawke and other Wardens.

Celene was in the Arbor Wilds??

HOW DO YOU NOT NOTICE THAT? All of the advisers were in the wilds.

I didn't expect the game to end when it did.  It felt like I wasn't finished, like I hadn't earned a happy ending.  There was no big choice to be made, no sacrifice asked of me, and not a lot of buildup for the final mission, unlike the mission preceding it.  Granted, I probably wouldn't want to go through all that twice in a row, but the final mission felt simply like going through the motions.

 

That said, this is better enough than ME3 that I don't regret the purchase and will play it again. 

 

I did watch the Solas/Flemeth bit, and while mostly confusing, was kind of cool.  It makes me sad, though, to think my Inquisitor and her fight with Corypheus was just a stepping stone to the next Dragon Age story.  The epilogue was otherwise satisfying, as the big political choices at least felt they mattered.

 

Side note:  it's also kind of annoying that i picked up over a hundred Stormheart but no tier 3 recipes for cloth or staff in "What Pride Hath Wrought."

Actually, forget the 'side' part of the note.  I got all of this gear and potential gear for a final mission containing precisely two enemies.  I didn't equip anything new, and it was still too easy.  Granted I played on normal, but I found plenty of challenge the first 10 levels.  After getting specializations and tier 2 equipment, the difficulty is reduced.

After playing Grand Theft Auto V I can't help but to think that Bioware is turning the Dragon Age series into a children sims like game where romance is far more important then the actual storyline. Perhaps Disney might buy the license of Dragon Age from EA. Who knows.

 

On the box it says M for mature. Blood, intense violence, nudity, sexual content and strong language. As an adult I want to play games that are appropriate for my age. I demand these kind of content as it's listed on the ESRB. In Inquisition I felt like I was playing a game that was made for teens, and not for adults. In both Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age 2 we were given a choice of going into a brothel, and hiring a prostitute of our choice. In Inquisition there is no brothel to go to as Mike Laidlaw confirmed it on twitter. The only time we get to see nudity and sexual content is when were locked in on the romance that we are so restricted of having. That is it. There was one sex scene, and that is it.

 

If I had a choice I would rather put a bar of soap in Blackwalls mouth to get my brothels back.

 

I cannot get myself to go back to finish my second playthrough.

...Does not compute. Error.

 

More to the point, if you think "having brothel" = "mature content", well, I don't even.

After playing Grand Theft Auto V myself, I can't help but wonder why this, of all games, had to be the example you used. Grand Theft Auto has always been a cartoonishly ridiculous series. I love V, and think it's quite a laugh, but it appeals mostly to the puerile side of me that loves to blow things up, and wreak havoc through the streets with few consequences other than losing some money walking out of the hospital. Switching to Trevor, only to find him slumped over in an alleyway in his underwear doesn't exactly engage me intellectually XD

 

Anyway, I'll never really get the hangup over video game prostitutes. Maybe Dragon Age will have a game where we play the equivalent of Petyr Baelish, and we have to keep our proprietor hand strong.

Physically walking in the fade during a major battle, outsmarting the entire orlisan court, going through time, and solving the thing everyone could not are not brilliant Moments?

 

First of all, I struggle to see how the Inquisitor outsmarted anyone at the ball. The crazy lady flat out tells you she plans to kill Celene, yes? I certainly don't recall any flashes of brilliance from the Inquisitor or anyone else on the team during the investigation.

 

But, no, they're not brilliant moments. Why would they be? It's just big stuff happening. So what? Pretty much every video game has big stuff happening.

Uh having brothels gives the game it's much needed sexual content, not mature. The content that's severely lacking in inquisition.

Isn't GTA V a much better game than Inquisition? At least you can find a hooker on the streets while cruising around in your car, and pay for sex while in inquisition you take the Christianity approach, and seek out relationship first rather than to just have a one night stand. I mean what if my inquisitor only wants Cassandra for the sex... what about that? Why does my inquisitor must get into a serious relationship with the woman? Why can't I play with her in a cold way? Why do I have to listen to all of her problems just to get a piece of ass?

No sure if stupid, or troll... Casual sex isn't what Bioware wanted, they wanted a more mature, respecting, and loving relationship. GTA V, although fun, is mindless and childish random sex... DA Is fine how it is, and a brothel had no real impact in the story. Unless you wanted to make it your character was Bi.

You can dump her immediately after the sex.

She won't get into bed with someone who doesn't show interest in her, but you can definitely play that interest as something that was just for show.

Well, ok, it's a view. 

Funny, I consider DAI an infinitely better game than GTA (any of them), for exactly the same reasons.

If I remember correctly Bioware was bragging about how important choices was in the story yet failed miserably on providing just that. Also it doesn't matter what Bioware wants. What truly matters is what we the customers want in the games that we pay a lot of money on. We are Bioware's bosses, not the other way around.

 

We the players should have the right to control what contribute to the story. If I want to create a character who is a sex addict, and pisses away money on prostitutes while saving the world should be my decision. Perhaps you don't think that causal sex doesn't play a real impact in the story, but in my story it does considering the fact that being this huge leader takes on a lot of responsibility, and with that causes significant amount of stress and anxiety.  Through sex gives relief from this stress and anxiety.

Ultimately the only choice the customers have is to purchase, or not, the game offered for sale.

BioWare makes a game containing the choices they specify in order to sell a successful game (which has happened).

  • You are BioWare's boss? No.
  • Can you fire them? No.
  • Can you change the game specification? No.

There is nothing philosophically wrong with the 'banging simulator' you were asking for,

but that is neither the game that was advertised, nor the game actually sold.

I presume you didn't take options like saying that Florianne was lying about Gaspard trying to trick you?  Or walking circles around her after revealing her plot to the entire assembled Orlesian Court.

 

not enough heroism?

Yup. Plus, this isn't just about Florianne. If you gather enough evidence, you can unlock better - or more interesting - options for rulers of Orlais themselves.

 

I mean, call me crazy, but I think that if the Inquisitor gains enough approval to be able to go around the Palace and look for information, with which later he/she's able to either force all three conflicted parties to work together or go as far as make an elf a Marquis (or de facto ruler, if you pick another available option), that definitely counts as outsmarting everyone.
