alright, i will change the question
What is the point of playing a poorly done multiplayer and even pay for the stuff there?
I remember when ME3 came out and not long after (not sure if it was this forum or another forum, seems like it was this one) and some guy said he had already spent $300.00 on MP after only a couple of weeks. With people like him it's no wonder microtransactions are a staple anymore.

Things I hope DA4 doesn't change:
- da lore and fantasy world: Witcher 3 is just too gross for my taste. You don't need to show me someone is lower class by making them filthy and disgusting. I hated the disgusting snort noises a lot of peasants did and this just made me annoyed and not immersed. I love over the top nobles and that poverty doesn't turn people into animals. Also like seeing exquisite armor designs. I wish they let us pick up some orleasian fashion items to wear for fun as I like some of the dresses and outfits and would have been nice to wear around city zones.
Poverty does turn people into animals, at least it did in those days. The greater majority of peasants were uneducated and illiterate, so they based their knowledge on superstition--which meant they rarely bathed. They bathed about once a year or so because they believed washing off the dirt left them open for sickness, washing in the winter meant certain death and that if you were too clean, you disturbed the humors in your body. They would also sleep with their best animals in the house. A good milking cow or expensive hog was too risky to be left out for thieves or cold weather, so in the house they'd go, bunkering down with the family. Their clothing would have been completely filthy. Most peasants owned only a few clothes and despite everyone always washing clothes in TW3, peasants rarely washed their clothes. Washing clothes in those days was very hard on fabric. In most cases lye was used to cleanse the clothes and it could cause your hands to because raw and burned and it was known to even cause blindness--so you can imagine how it would wear on cloth. Fabric and thread were too expensive. In fact, royalty and nobles never washed their heavy velvets and silk gowns. They would brush them and freshen them with herbs, only linen and underclothes were washed and carried pomades to stifle the stench of themselves and others.
Manners would have been a useless trait and in the days where even nobles pissed in fireplaces and belched at the whim, it isn't something peasants would have put any priority to.
I love that there is a social and economic difference that is noticeable. It's kind of off-putting to me to have peasants speaking with a posh accent. I like seeing the downtrodden be actually downtrodden. Those refugees in the Hinterlands were too happy and clean given their situation. They seemed to have it pretty good, actually. To me, that's not immersive.
It does boil down to personal preference though. Just what people like to and don't like.
Love how people mention Witcher 3's open world to be just as boring as inquisition's because of the ?'s. The ?'s arent too far apart in quality to the side quests in inquisition. Im still on Skellige, around 165 hours into act 1 and haven't done a single ? here. There optional (and pointless to be fair you get nothing useful, a friend of mine spent 12 hours doing all of Skellige's ?'s out of ocd and got nothing) unlike the side quests in inquisition which are needed for power.
Until recently i thought inquisition had better graphics over witcher, despite the 'downgrade' im finding it hard to agree. http://imgur.com/a/6wdQP#0
What I find amusing is when people were complaining about some of the boring and repetitious minor quests in DAI, some people kept saying they should stop complaining about it because you didn't have to do them and they were completely optional. I have seen a couple of those same people complain about the Question Mark quests. I think you can even toggle them off the map, can't you? Not sure about that, never tried it but someone told me you could. And the loot you find may not be remarkable on those quests, but destroying nests(especially higher ranked ones) can give you rare reagents and mutagens. The rest can be dismantled for crafting--even books and notes, or sold for some sweet moola.
