Meh. Art is art. I don't remember ever being taught movies, or games in Art Class.

Sure, I can. But, those are likely the same people who are freaking out, anyways. And, it's basically them wanting more content but not having to pay for it. btw, I have not bought Warden's Keep. Therefore, I do not deserve, nor expect to get the things you bought. ie. We are both apartment searching. Stuff is being advertised as just rent, inclusive of hydro, and inclusive of everything (hydro, phone,c able, and internet). The last will cost extra, but in the long run likely save you money. I get the apartment with just rent. You get the one with inclusive of everything. It costs you, say, $75 more. But, you get more. I have no right to complain.

"And in BG2 I didn't have to micromanage my party as I do in DA I could macromanage it and be fine. " I don't believe you. And, since you are making stuff up now, I cna't take your posts seriously anymore. "I'd love to hear where/who Ron Moore 'ripped off' klingons from? Please post specifics." No. YOU be speciifc. All you claimed that DA dwarves are ripped off from klingons even thoguh, they are more likely to be 'ripped off' from other stuff like D&D dwarves, D&D drow (though not neccessarily as evil), or heck any race/culture/group ever created that has heavy cutthroat level of politics. Heck, that's any thing dealing with politics INCLUDING HUMANS. On top of this, time and time again, klingons are often referred to the SCI FI/STAR TREK version of dwarves - espciially when TNG starting making them more well rounded instead of just villains like they were originally. So, this mythical myth that you spout that DA dwarves are just klingons is absed on nothing - asevidenced by you giving no evidence that they are based off klingons instead of any other war like race with violent politics but with a streak of honour. Heck, that's a stereotypically used racisl trope in both fantasy and sci fi.

Well.. You pay for soemthing, you should get something... right? If you got nothing wortwhile from purchasing DLC why would you buy it in the first place?

Becuase BIO is not intimidated by some crybabies on the internetz, because their fanbase is more than just the couple of epople who spam non stop. Losing a handful of customers over small things or incosnequential things is simply irrelevant to BIO - espicially since most of the complainers are 'hardcore' punks whoa re gonna buy the BIO games releaased anyways. Quite frnakly, he was too polite.

"You really should know your facts before you go into your default 'bioware can do no wrong' mode. You really sound totally ignorant when you say something like this. Call me timeline challenged but... I am pretty sure when Ron Moore wrote in depth how the klingon society works for ST:TNG in the early 90s that predates DA by almost 20 years. Just saying. Read the ST lore of klingons then read the DA dwarfs... pretty much a carbon copy minus the race hight and starships." And, DA's dwarves (and klingons) ar e'rip offs of other races includingversions of fantasy dwarves. there is NOTHJING original about klingons 9I still love them, thoguh). to claim that DA dwarves are ripped off from klingons is nonsense. If anything DA dwarves are basically your typical fantasy dwarf with harsh politics. Not original, and not based off klingons. And, the one with tunnel vision here is you since your way is the 'right' way. "Bioware in effect, by design, FORCES players to micromanage. Thats the issue and point of contention. Some of us use want to macro manage the party, not micro. " Tough. DA is supposed to be 'spirtual successor' to BG2 which was all about micromanaging your party. And, just like DA, it gave a limited way of aiding the AI but ultimiately micromanaging is always the better option. And, it always will be.

BAH. I'm about to give up. *puke*

Except me.

You wouldn't happen to be referring to the SPOILER, would you? No, he's super easy comapred to what come snext. I nearly cried, and became a wuss and even thought about lowering the difficulty becuase of the fights after SPOILER.

PIT at DEN: PIT p.s. Kelverin baboozled me. L0LZ

"I've got to level 7 in Dragon Age and encountered one trap" Weird. I've seen tons. Inventory problems? The game gaives you 70 spots. That's more than enough. NEWSSFLASH: Those of you fighting werewoves, and thimnking those are hard... you ain't seen nothin' yet. Wait til later in that area. R00fles!

"like to story as a whole... the Klingons... er.. 'dwarves' is a bit annoying and so transparent what they based them on *cough*todaysagooddaytodie*cough* but as a whole I like most of the world they designed. Sorry to hear you don't like the voice acting/story. " L0LZ If anything, klingons are the rip off. As for people complaining about the 'AI tatics'. *shrug* This game is supposed to be like BG2 suppsoedly so why use them at all? Just shut off the IA, and control all 4 npcs as it should be. DA combat , and character is deeper, more tatical, and more complex than BG series could ever hope to be.

Yes. Make sure you have some helaing pots, and at least one big damage dealer. Try your best to get a knockdown/freeze on the creature. If a characetr is about to die, retreat with it. Most importantly, micromanage your characters if you want them to do stuff other than basic attacks. btw, If you ar ehaving trouble with it, what come snext is MUCH harder. It took me 3 tries to beat him (b/c first two times I was lazy and just went in 'guns blazing'). What come snext, is EVILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

"Don't even bother arguing with Vologic. It's probably safer to just put him on your ignore list, but I like to be entertained from time to time!" YAY! A troll post! "Bah defining art is difficult" Games aren't art.

"instead palm off this cheap crappy DLC bull**** to us for a price that's entirely not worth playing." Then don't buy oir play it. Problem solved. As for this 'immersion' stuff, that is a horrible argument because immersion is one of those things that is random and is totally meaningless to argue since everybody has a different sense of what 'immersion' is.

"if you have it ameliorating an 'artificial' limitation (ie inventory space)" L0L There is too much inventory space. Any game that allows you to carry dozesn of armour is not limited. Anyways, best way to let publishers know you don't like this stuff is not to buy it. Whining has little effect. And,w hining about an EA BIO game doing this on the Obsidian board means even less because it has no effect on EA. So, try to say that's why people are 'up in arms' is silly. People complain about styff because that's what the internet is for. P.S. I, too, find it slightly annoying that it's advertised in game but it's very minor - espciially comapred to other things in the game much worthy. It's also very eaisly ignorable and it hurts nobody.

More seriously, Gamestop needs a life. And, DA is good.

I hope you hate it. Just because I'm cruel. <>

"I just think smells bit too much like a scam." How is it a scam? You pay x dollas, and you get y in return. You know this up front. It's not a scam. A scam is more on the line sof you pay x for y, but get z instead (or nothing at all). THAT'S a scam. My moral outrage over the moral outrage iis starting to morally outrage me. Urgh!...

It's a new game. A new game that many Obsidian forumites were looking forward to - to praise or bash - so not surprisnjg tons of threads about it. I plan to make one eventually to that will inbclude TONS OF SPOILERS because I'me vil that way. But, I'm also GOOD so I'll warn people first. L0L

Eaiser way to fix the AI is just play the game by controlling all 4 characetrs...

"Sheesh if you got nothing just stfu or back out," Seriosuly, take a chill pill. And, oh, make me little one. Rogues are not the equal at FIGHTING as FIGHTERS are NOR should they be. But, they ar euseful as a secondary character in fights. Nor, does it matter if your PC is a rogue or an npc is a rogue. It works under the same rules. p.s. I think ME's dialogue system is really underrated by the masses. It's nto even close to being dumbed down. It does basically the exactly same as DA's dailogue does but it doesn't come out as word barf. AND, btw, that's exactly what a lot of DA dialogue comes across as. Word barf and diarehha.

I just don't get gamers. Okay, i do. They lvoe to complain. For years, people complained that BIO games were 'too easy'; now the complaint is it's 'too hard'. DA combat knows exactly what it wants to be. It's real time with pause. Exactly like NWN and BG. The only real difference that is instead of a round being 6 seconds, it goes more by cooldowns and the like. DA combat can be challenging at times, but that's a GOOD thing. I kinda agree about the graphics, though. They're alright, but nothing special. JE, and ME both absolutely crush it. " I know David Gadier loves his foreshadowing in his writting but he really needs to use another writting hook to tell his stories. He had the same issue with BG2 in fact. " Are you sure Gaider was the lead writer of BG2? Or any other BIO game. People seem to blame him for all of BIO's writing. ""Is it really harder than BG2, think about that for a moment. " In some ways, yes. I really wish I could play the PC version of DA as I bet it's easier than the console version thanks to the iso view. I REALLY WANT ISO VIEW.

I don't know why this is a 'moral' issue. It isn't. It's basically about a company trying to sell a product, and customers simply deciding if they wnat to spend the money on it or not. Yet, people are making it out to be some moral dilemma. Just ebcause theya re selling it doesn't mean you have to buy it. As for it being 'in game'... big deal. It's their game. They can make it as they want to, and if they feel like marketing a product so be it. For me, I saw the guy in camp, I talekd to him, and I moved on. And, chose not to buy it. Not a big deal. Not a moral issue either. *shrug*
