I got perma banned from BSN, but before that i delete everything as far as i can, there's 3500 posts or so, i don't remember, so i cannot prove it to you. As for why it is important to have Grey Warden as the central theme, it is because that is what we have been established in the first place. You may argue using TES, but TES is different thing, it is an open world where the story never being the important thing. Players love TES not bcause of it's story, and TES stories suck. Most players love TES because of the world it give, and that is. Most players don't even care to pursue the main plot in TES games, just want to be in that world, romaing around, messing around until bored to death. It is different with DA, the game is a story, a story about you as any role you choose, then it progress as the story progress, the central theme is being a Grey Warden and how your perception on "what it is mean to be a Grey Warden", that is the issue, you are a new recruit, your master dead, you only assume your role as a Grey Warden. So for the next story they should maintain that, giving another perspective of being a Grey Warden, and so on for the next story. That way Dragon Age will be remembered, because it have central theme, and not just bunch of stories of different characters. So now, what Dragon Age is all about? As you can see, Dragon Age Origin trailer is so awesome compared with DA2 and DA:I, as yourself why...

DA2 is a totally bad story not related with anything, only using Dragon Age universe. Act 1 - find gold, 50 gold to be exact, then off to deep road, found an idol Act 2 - Kirkwal under Qunari attack, because someone stole their book, kill or deal with Qunari leader Act 3 - Meredith go nut, kill her, side with Mages or Templar doesn't matter And now DA:I complete new thing not related to DA2 vanilla but DA2 DLC. DA2 is nothing now and forgotten Want to know why Star Wars, LotR and many more sagas are epic and remembered? Because they all have identity, no matter the story is good or bad, it is remembered because of their identity, their central theme. Grey Warden sould be Dragon Age central theme. You see DA:O advertisment trailers? We being introduce with the cenral theme of DA, it is all about "what it means to be a Grey Warden", "Join us in the shadow where we stay vigilant...."

They are going to beastiality now... Must....resist.....GODDAMMIT...... ...ok. This thread is about Dragon Age: Inquisition. Carry on. In term of story, i do have chat with David Gaider, i say he should just focus the theme on Grey Warden, Darkspawn and Archdemon, because that what have been established in the first game. Other things are just spices in the story, much like DA:O, the whole thing is about the Blight but all the way we involve in politic, solving problems, and much more. You see in DA:O, we are involve in Mage and Templar prob, Werewolves and Dalish prob, Orzamar politic, Ferelden politic, Alienage prob, seeking ancient myth, ect ect ect...each with their stories. The main story is of course The Blight, but that just the central story. It is all changed since DA2, since they want to throw "The Blight" into trash can, i don't say DA2 must be about The Blight, but just make it related. It is better if the main character being recruited into Grey Warden, and then main story is related with "The Blight". There can be Mage and Templar prob whatsoever, but it is how the main character as a Grey Warden get involved in. Then about seeking out the cure of the taint for example. DA3 can be about hunting broodmothers instead of closing demon gates, and then about relationship between magic, The Fade, demons and Archdemon. Giving somekind of conclusion. The main character must be a Grey Warden. If there must another military order such as "inquisition" make it Grey Wardens who have to create this new order because of something That is how DA will have it's own identity, have focus, when we say Dragon Age, thing that come to mind is "Grey Warden", like when we say "Star Wars" thing that come to mind is "Jedi". But now it have been too late, it is because of changing policy in BioWare, DA2 is totally a tool of propagandas, that is why the story is bad, and now what is the story anyway? Do we even care the story? I asked David Gaider "what is Dragon Age is all about?"....actually it's nothing, just bunch of propagandas

Not just Islam, but religion, DA is all about...."God hate you", "God don't exist", "It's not miracle, it's science", "you must convert or we will kill you", "my religion demand that i kill my self by set my self on fire", "the prophet is still alive, let us all go nuts and killing people".... I thought you guys have realized that already...

It's hilarious is what it is. As for the bugs, yeah, they are pretty big, but none are gamebreaking and a lot of reported bugs are just people getting confused at times by the UI/mouse cursor bombo interface. The most common bug is the WASD becoming unresponsive after using an ability and only becoming responsive after you use another one. I have full faith they will get resolved. Most of the gigantic bugs (falling out of the world, textures vanishing) only happen in rare situations. And honestly, if we're talking about refunds or lawsuits over "immersion-breaking" bugs, we should probably add Obsidian to the list of corrupt companies. And in all seriousness, the game is outstanding. I'm willing to forgive a few bugs for such a huge (and quality) product. One last thing... to everyone saying it's nothing like Origins, I don't know how to take that seriously. It's just Origins in a prettier package. Origins had cut scenes. Origin had romance options (options being the key word). Origin had a tactical camera. Origins was third person. Qis, you are not a moral crusader. Please stop acting like you are. Some of us actually want to play the game, and some of us like talking about it. Repeat: it's a video game. I don't deny it's hilarious, it is because it is bad, bad writing, bad animation, bad everything....it's a sick joke what Bioware have become Most PC users cannot play the game, because it's not made for PC, it's made for console, and that's a scam because they say it's made for PC. The problems caused by it. Bugs is normal for any game i don't deny, but this is not bugs, this is a fake product. Let say you buy a car, the dealer said your car can be used in any weather, but actually your car can only be used in normal weather, you buy it because you trust the dealer, then winter come, you cannot start the engine. You being scammed. All cars have windows, have seats, have tyres, have strearing ect but does that make all cars are the same? It's nothing like Origin. In Origin - you can issue command to your party members at any time without pausing, DA:I cannot - you can set your party members tactic and the tactic is detailed, in DA:I it is not - you can auto attack with single click, in DA:I it is not - you can build your character and anyone as you like, in DA:I you cannot - you can relax and enjoy watching the combat or you can play it dynamically, in DA:I you cannot because it's button/mouse click meshing - ...... No, i am not a moral crusader, it is everyone right want to play the game or want to buy it, it's everyone right want to become loyal fan or whatever, i just express my sympathy....a friend who tell a friend that his/her lover is cheating on him/her...up to you guys

"Kadaaan...kadaaaan...." You just got scammed, just because it does run doesn't mean it is not a scam product. Let say you buy a lubricant, it does lubricate, but then you got itchy, then your skin become weird, then you see a doctor...you got scammed. It turns to be the lubricant is for for something else and not for that purpose. The thing work and you enjoyed using it but does that make you don't get scammed? It's time to teach these evil companies from taking advantage on consumers ignorance, just because they are game companies and people don't know about computers and softwares, and don't know about legal stuff, they got their profit and get away...make a petition and urge your ministry of commerce to investigate They are not good guys, they are bad guys, don't give them a chance

A company that just wants our money? *Le Gasp!* What is the crime, exactly? Check out your country commerce law or whatever They sell fake product, they lie, they got profit by it that day, the game isn't build for PC but they say it's build for PC, it's a breach of trust, a scam You are a customer...always remember that

What is this...???

Yes, the spirit of DA:O is long gone, it is a shame really, they should just upgrade the game, not changing it wholy into a new thing. Not only they make it into Mass Effect since DA2 but Mass Effect is better in it's own, now it is a mess, it is the worst system ever. Not only the game mechanic is a mess, the story also. I will spoil here, i don't care, i think people already know, the end boss is a character from DA2 DLC, can you imagine how crappy the story is? How lazy it is? I don't know why peoples still defending this corrupt company, it's their right, but these "fans" who direct them to make this crap game, totally destroyed the whole francise. They just want your money and they don't care. And i wonder why no one who have bought the game didn't sue them because of breach of trust, they lie and get away with it. of course it is just $70 isn't it, but that $70 make them rich. Hw many players investing in upgrading their computers because of their lies? Yes you can ask for refund, but that doesnt make they can get away from their crime, it's a crime....

In the whole DA series, the only intelligent enemy boss is suprisingly Flemeth, in her dragon form of course, Flemeth does react on you, even she cannot move away from her spot, but really that dragon is intelligent enemy If you flank her, she will kick you out, then turn on you, anyone else try to flank her, she attack with her tail, low health party member is likely got grabbed, if there's too many near her she will AoE stun, if you' and party member far away she just fireball you until you come near, if you are in certain range she will drag/suck you near her, it just that she can't fly away from her spot Of course if you are an arcane warrior (or anything) you can solo her on nightmare, but that's is not the issue, she is an intelligent enemy boss (and she's the only) despite her design not allowing her to move away from her spot Sadly, none enemy bosses in the whole DA is like that......(not even The Archdemon)

Like i said, it's thing of the past I do talk about this 1 million hit points and one shot kill enemies in rant about Dark Souls thread....but i want to continue a bit This typical enemies only need you to become stronger and can spam damage on them, you don't need tactic, critical thinking, whatever...it's the thing of the past. And LAZY design. Just put steroid enemies here and there as bosses and mini bosses. This types of enemies didn't react to you, because they are hard to kill and deal lots of damage, so they just sit there following their script...one of the example is the Stone Wraith in DA2. At certain time it make rolling attack, then it floating in the air and burst out enegy, then minnions come out, then rinse and repeat...you just only need to hid behind pillars then attack when it become static It's also unrealictic...example Meredith, following the manner of the Stone Waraith above, she's also very tough where everyone is attacking her and she don't even give a ****, then she jump in the air, minnions come out, then rinse and repeat....

I seem to have a knack for running into random dragons that one-shot my party-members. Behold the great combat mechanic of the century, it have one shot kill enemies.... In BG2, if you used community mods that made game enemies smarter and harder, Dragons also one shot weaker party members. One shot kill is old, lame, uncreative, thing of the past....this is 2014. With all the hyped combat mechanic, they have one shot kill enemies...Oh sure it comes with 1 million hit points...Typical boring steroid enemies... One shot enemy should not be in 2014 games, what fun is that? You only need to GRIND to get past their level, become overpower then spam attack to reduce their 1 million hit points to zero

I seem to have a knack for running into random dragons that one-shot my party-members. Behold the great combat mechanic of the century, it have one shot kill enemies....

Major spoiler, don't watch if don't want to get spoiled

Oh, the Dragonborn also a normal person until a dragon killed and she absorb the dragon soul, and then can blow away things using her voice, also absorbing some words on walls.....

I was under the impression that Martin Septim became the messiah in Oblivion. I mean it's a mix of both Oblivion and Skyrim (and many more) It's not Dragon Age anymore, this francise is gone for good....it's replaced by something that is so ugly, we can't even fathom what it is. I honestly don't know what to call this game...it's like a mutated biological thing come out from a mutated biological thing...just call it "The Thing" It's a bunch of garbages of all what is in other games out there, compiled in a game and put "Dragon Age" label on it

Actually it's an old bug in all Bioware games, the same bug you see in DA:O, DA2, SWTOR, ME...don't believe me just google it. It means they didn't upgrade anything, it's the very same animation bug Apparently, they are MJ fans

yes, MJ still alive....confirmed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muIBxYr57Og

bug fest started....MJ still alive!

Hawke is returning their original home land. And their family belongs in nobility, although has lost their wealth so I would not say that Hawke is not necessary your most typical immigrant. Okay, let say i born in UK, grow up in UK, schooled in UK, speaking English and eat cheese for 25 years, then i run away from UK and going to my father country Malaysia, i bribe the custom officers, i don't have any papers saying i am a Malaysian, am i not an UK immigrant? Then i kill an owner of an estate who was acquiring the estate legally from my Malaysian family, suddenly i become rich and a noble in Malaysia....Where your ancestors were doesn't make their place is your place, you are where you are born, no matter what color your skin is But anyway, Hawke is just a normal person that's what i mean, not a special person with special power and need to incrase her power in order to close magical door whatsoever

It's not Dragon Age in DA:O you have different backgrounds, normal person who become a Grey Warden In DA2, you are just a normal immigrant in Kirkwal

DA: Oblivion/Skyrim i. your character was a prisoner ---> check ii. you have an ability everyone don't have ---> check iii. you need to close the gate ---> check iv. you must seek power ---> check v. you become a messiah ---> check vi. .......

Why Dragon Age:Origin quests is engaging? Why MMO style is boring? i. most side quests in DA:O are just "along the way", we don't even realize we are doing a side quest, it is on the way anyway, so while doing the main quest are are also doing the side quests ii. some side quests cannot be completed if not going through main quest, because the area are locked, it give the sense of "move along", meaning the main quest is what important and not chasing the side quests iii. it makes us feel doing something important, for example become the Blackstone Irregular representative, the quest end up choosing the father or the son or none of them. iv. only few NPCs giving side quests, some not worth to mention, doing it and get reward, not doing it not get any, the reward is not great anyway. But some quests do lead to some result in the epilogue, a surprise v. we can do the quests as asked by NPCs, not like what they asked and not because they asked, for example Zathrian, we may begin the quests by agreeing to help him, or not and just wandering the Brecilian Forest and meet with those werewolves saying "no, i am not doing anything for the Dalish, i don't care about them, i am here just for fun and have nothing better to do" vi. some quests we don't know why we are doing it, for example delivering a small box, we get reward and laughter, i can only assume it's actually a magical sex toy ordered from the Circle awaiting for delivery vii. most quests end up following the flow of the main story, because most quests move along with the main story, so before going to the landsmeet, we are likely almost completed most quests viii. companion quests are randomly activated, we may get ambushed anywhere turn out to be they are chasing Leliana, we are on the way to Orzamar, there is some sense of "i must pursue what is more important, i must meet the Orzamar king" or "i care for my friend, i will go to Denerim at once"

Yes, maybe it's the uploader doing it But whatever, i don't care anymore...

DA:I = Oblivion + Skyrim + SWTOR + WoW +........ It's a big NO for me I don't want to bother about this game any longer, the whole francise is destroyed for me, this is a huge disappointment....it is all wasted, ah, don't want to talk about it anymore... Dragon Age is dead..... It's Skyrim exploration music
