I agree. There was an astounding lack of dialog between the Wardens. Not to mention they have canned statements now (Anders, for reasons beyond me, hitting on Velanna repeating and so on). The game is a trifle buggy. There were almost show stopping slow downs during the cut scenes, characters getting stuck in battle stance until their weapons were removed, characters being stuck in the drink animation from the joining, the goblet disappearing during the joining, Justices' approval being mocked up when he joined (no point in gifts, he started out with +100 approval), the DLC from Origins not being recognized after Awakening was installed.

All that said I am enjoying the game but not as much as I enjoyed Origins. The price does not bother me at all. It could be because it was a present to me, it could be because I'm rather used to recent games being between $40.00 and $60.00. It is EA, really we're lucky that the expansion didn't cost the same amount as the first installation. Look at how they handle their other noteworthy franchises, namely The Sims (which I play as well). They're all priced the same and there is now The Sims Store for DLC.

Um... not outraged, just disappointed by the social interaction.



It was interesting when there was some and fun with the open world banter between the characters but... I would have liked to have a bit more conversation. I didn't feel any connection to any of the wardens. Nathaniel, yes -- being that you as the main character killed his father. If you were a mage... kind of with Anders but not entirely. Everyone else... still nothing! Even Oghren! No, Oghren! I thought we would reminisce or something to that sort.



So not outraged, just disappointed by the social interaction or lack there of as "Sonalia" mentioned.

Nah not outraged. They need to make a patch to address some bad bugs in game and change the conversation thing back to what it was as I felt it was shallow and lacked depth.  Otherwise I pretty much enjoyed it overall.

Not outraged, but I'm a bit irritated with the bugs I've experienced.



DAO was, to me, a near perfect. The dialog, the graphics, the story (except the end was lackluster), but hands down overall, the best game I've ever played....



So I'm surprised to find the amount of bugs in this first major expansion. My character has a "tatto" across her face that says "legacy tatto assa...do not use!!". I e-mailed support and I'm told they know about it, but so far won't fix it unless it's done in a patch. This su-cks for screen shots.



I've also noticed the overall and options are a bit different. You can't get the 'full' story all the time...it's like some of the options drop out if you pick a certain line of questioning. One last thing, if you choose not to have Anders join in the beginning, he and the templar just disappear...the coninuity isn't there like in DAO....all parties would have stayed until the end of the cutscene.



I think the expansion was a bit rushed. It's stil fun, because you can't get too much Dragon Age, but I can't help but to feel this was put out before it was ready.



EA\\bioware, we need a patch.

I'm so disappointed by the lack of emotion and depth in DA:A...That I feel myself as Tranquil ... It's so awful, that I simply ... stop to play ДАО ...

Yeah, I stop to play DA:O .... while Bioware will not make something worthy Dragon Age: Origins.



It's all from me. ((((((:

Yeah I wish they'd just cut out the epilogues. I don't feel they add anything to the experience because they can and should be contridicted later, Bioware should allow some creative freedom of there staff instead of saying "Well so and so died SPOILER HERE" if you didn't choose to burn down SPOILER HERE. They should have you go back to SPOILER and see the aftermath for yourself. Would have had more impact. Instead so and so disappears, oh no, someone was with you decided to heed the calling for no real reason. Yarr.

That is one of my two complaints regarding the game. I also hated the epilogue in DA:O. I find it annoying that they tell you what happens five trillion years from now, then say you're story isn't over yet. If the damned story isn't over yet, then why not wait until the next expansion/addon/game to tell us what's been happening? It would make far more sense to have an prologue at the beginning of the next game that tells us what happened between it and the last one. Instead, it ends up screaming, "Sorry, no more playing with this character! Ha ha!".

My second complaint about the game is the price. It had half the gameplay time as DA:O and cost nearly as much. And they didn't even blow in our ears first.

Other than those two things, I enjoyed it. I got over my character being naked at the beginning (by going back to Origins and changing her armor) and I enjoyed the new characters, for the most part. Anders was pretty funny (even if he did act like a girl too much) and Nathaniel ended up being a good guy. The cameo by Alistair reminded me of just how much I wanted to kick him, however. All in all, it was a fun expansion pack, and I like the fact that you don't seem to be able to save both the city and the keep at the end. If you can actually save both, though, someone fill me in about how to do it!

EDITED: I do have one more complaint, and that is the new dialogue "system". I don't like it. If they keep that system for the sequel, then I fear romances are gone for good (unless it's just a meaningly quickie behind a bush) and you won't really get to know your companions. The new system lacks depth in a big way. For now, I will assume that the lack of decent relationships (friendship and otherwise) with your teammates is due to it being an expansion. If this is the way Bioware intends to keep it, then there's a problem. Not that they give a crap what we want, of course.

No outrage here. Loving it. Haven't encountered any bugs either. Sorry if I disappoint.

If you are outraged, feel cheated over DA:A then do more than just post here in the forums.  Do as I did and e-mail Bioware. It will be harder for them to disreguard so many e-mails as they can with the forums.

If you feel "cheated" that confirms you are silly.

How is it silly? Not everyone enjoyed the expansion. Some people DID feel cheated. Maybe they had set their expectations too high? It doesn't matter. The game did let down a lot of people.

Cheated is when you buy 10lbs of turkey and go home, weigh it, and find out it's actually 7lbs.

Buying DAOA is not getting "cheated" , if people bothered to read the faq or previews they would have known what they were buying.  

Not really. At all. You can only get so much from an FAQ or preview. I read up and was super excited for this expansion. So was my sister. I bought it. It was very... unsatisfying. The experience was mediocre at best. The only thing keeping me playing it was the achievements and Velanna, because she reminds me of my Dalish elf's mentality.
Less use of retarded emotes next time too there. It's hard to take anything you say seriously.

And you using the term "retarded" helps everyone take you seriously?  How about calling things mediocre and unsatisfying, yet you finished it and provide no examples of what is mediocre.

It's hard to take anything you say as other than kiddie trollin:bandit:

Yes! Because anyone with an opinion different than your own is automatically a troll! GAMER LOGIC AT ITS FINEST!

Wow i had no idea there was so much hate for Awakenings! I just finished it and this is my first time back (didn't want to see spoilers). I wished it was longer - because i thought it was good. I had no bugs at all - but i can see why that would annoy people. As for "I will never buy from BW again" well i guess you are going to miss a lot of great games in the future.

Last point - its an expansion for christ sake!! It took me 16 hrs to finish. That is good value for an expansion (and a lot of full price games aren't that long).

If you are going to quote someone, actually quote the sentence! Fool.
Frankly, I find the idea absurd that anyone bought this expansion. They must have more money than sense.
I can't see me missing out on many great games. Look at ME2 or even DA, both sub standard RPG in my opinion. ME2 especially, it was just a much more boring version of the first one.

[Blue_dodo]

not really no, I enjoy it, I have had less problems with bugs/texture problems the other people.



also people who play it on pc, can get mods for it those who play on console though we have to wait for bioware, a patch will come out ma take time but eh, I am pretty sure they will get around to it at some point ,.



also before anyone start with the "baww you should have got it for the system it was meant for", I wasent't complaining okey ?

[SOLID_EVEREST]

I'm seriously hating the amount of lag in DA: A.
