I enjoy the game, it just doesn't live up to my expectations. Don't take me wrong, it is not a bad game, but I just don't see any reason why it should be called Baldur's Gate spiritual successor. It's seems more like a fantasy KotOR to me. Besides the party combat it doesn't have the core features I liked on BG (atmosphere, settings and location, memorable side-quests, C&C, exploration, the list can go on...).



But maybe an quote from Eurogamer review sums my thoughts better:



"And although it's a work of great accomplishment and craftsmanship - and no small amount of ambition - Dragon Age is sorely lacking in the things that make a truly great role-playing game, or any game for that matter: vision, inspiration, soul.



Somewhere in its journey back to its roots, BioWare has got lost in the dense tangle of what it was trying to accomplish. It hasn't been able to see the wood for the trees. It has summoned an entire world into existence in the most meticulous detail, but failed to give it an identity beyond the blandest cliché. It has created living characters that respond like humans, but speak like dictionaries and move like mannequins. It has engineered solidly absorbing RPG gameplay and character progression and stranded them in a succession of hackneyed and hide-bound scenarios."

..Stop trying to stuff your agenda down our throats.

The OP is expression his/her opinion, as are you and everyone else here who are defending the game as great. The OP has pointed out some specifics about why he/she regards the game as average. They are not just spouting out a rant.

Everyone here is expressing their opinion. What's wrong about what is being said here is when people tell other people that their opinion is wrong. It's okay to disagree on someone's opinion, which many of you do with the OP, but you have no right to tell them they are wrong.

This game has excellent writing. That alone has engrossed me more than any other RPG recently.

Personally I think wlcina gets a thumbs up for expressing their opinions on the game itself in such a civillised way :P (im not being sarcastic either) although I don't agree with these opinions all the same ;) He/She isn't being a troll, just expressiving an opinion, which everyone has a right to do - they aren't being rude or abusive so I don't see what people's problems are?

The reason posts/threads are being deleted is because some of the posters are being vile, rude and abusive - it's not because they are criticising the game. I agree that negative reviews can be helpful and constructive, but why the attitutes and lousy behaviour that go with some of them? As long as people can complain/criticise the game without degenerating into foul-mouthed neanderthals then that's fine, unfortunately a lot of people can't  <_<

one thing about being a PC game...is that WE have the ability to make the game into a perfect 10...because after all, from developer's perspectives--thus the game itself--might not be as attractive to you as they would have hoped...though...when toolset comes around, you can make your dragon age worth that rating of 9.5 or even 10 if you so desire...


hi all.

someone wrote about Neverwinter nights, on a forum, [bioware?]
"you are buying a module making Toolkit that comes with a Demo called 'neverwinter nights'!"!
how many modules?  2000? 3000?  they are still adding yet more, to this day!  Some of them, like "Tortured Hearts I and II, *each* boasts "100+ hours of gameplay"

Amen.  wait a few months then we will See What Creativeness can Do!
[better not have a dialup to download these modules though!

Wow everyone in this thread is trolling, also, not trolling doesn't mean being the majority (to the people that love the game).



As a BG1/2 + TOB fanatic (i'm one of the no lives that STILL solo's that game) this is a tad underwhelming. I know its a different game etc, and that bioware have said they'd never do anything as big as Baldurs Gate again but meh :P I can hope.



Felt like something was missing from the game, lacked some sort of vitality. Miserable as this little comment was, ill still buy everything these dudes make in the vain hope...that one day...that little sparkle will be there again :)

I very much disagree with the OP. I have played many RPG's of various sorts, and this is a very good one thus far.

Funny how this statment can be applied to your post. He is only posting his opinion and, although I may not agree with some of it, I respect it and am glad he is doing so because he's right. People who have problems with the game in some way need to post here on the DA forums so Bioware can see some of the communities concerns.

It seems to me that the OP had an idea in his head of how this game should play, it does not play the way he had expected it would and he is upset over it. I play games with little expectations because to be honest I am on a ride the developer has set up and all too often uber-hyped games disapoint.

And to the poster that said the pinnacle of nerdrage is in MMO forums you could not be right.

Not everyone is going to like a game, and that's okay. If you dislike the game, why are you here complaining about it? What do you hope to accomplish? Most people who bought the game enjoy it very much. No, it's not Oblivion and no it's not BG; it's a game in and of itself. I just don't see why you're on this forum complaining right now... maybe buyer's regret because you dislike the game... that's not Bioware's fault. All because you do not like the game doesn't mean that it's not a great game in its own.



tldr: Many people like this game even if you don't.

2 highlen: no its not rpg, DA is hack n slash , try real rpg game :-) like BG, DA isnt any way closest to BG.

2 nekator: you dont like my posts, just ignore them, I am writing all I am missing in this game (my opinion)









Another negative thoughts (still playing this game, and still "trolling" because I am showing you whats the wrong with this overhyped tryout for RPG)

- Mage's AOE spells are unusable, you will wipe out your party (example Fireball or Hell spell )

- NPCs often stucks (not attacking) its a feature as you may say, but for me its a bug ;-)

So, you think the most constructive figure of "dealing with BioWare" is to post untrue accusations, making false statements and bashing the developers? I'm sure BioWare will lick your feet next week.

I'm just curious, what other games are there, just like DAO? Because I'd very much like to play these, because I have not played a game this hard since 10 years ago.

Multiplayer did not a great game make. NWN1 may still be played by less than 1000 members. It's pretty dead. And the singleplayer sucked, until you got custom modules.

As for your opinion of how all negative opinions are valid opinions, I think you are a flaming homosexual and this is constructive to your personality, because it will show you how flagrant of a homosexual you are to your parents, as parents see their children as a heterosexual, until they come out of the closet, without mistakes. We must tell you just how homosexual you are.

(See how dumb that statement is? Now stop believing it to be true)

So far this is probably the best RPG i have ever played, next to KOTOR. I am picky as hell and if a game can keep my attention for over an hour then i am sold and in it for the long haul.

On a side note: The only two things i do not like is there is no multiplayer to play with friends and there is no way for me to respec. :alien:

Yeah, no. Most developers can only see the flaws in their game.
