2 - I like lore but I'd appreciate it if devs trimmed that down too. like if you find yourself typing up a note that starts as a mundane worklog that eventually hints that there's something evil going on, just stop. we know they found monsters; it's a fucking videogame. it's boring to read and ends up detracting from the atmosphere instead of adding to it. do better.

This game is the absolute worst with it. There are so many shitty codexs that are around. They aren't as interesting as in the first game when the whole world was new. It's like shitty backstory for a world already built now. Plus the way they are presented in that little scroll you have to scroll through is terrible.

So as long as you stick to the main quest you get a good 30 hour game with no MMO quests?

If you dont like open world games is this still worth it?

Some of the side quests are fine. Just never feel compelled to do anything that doesn't interest you and you will be fine.

Yeah, i put it on hold for now as well. There's fuckall coming out this summer other than Batman, so that seems like a good time to blow 50-60 hours on a game like this.

I'm looking forward to the DLC. Will they have that certain someone return as a controllable party member? Theoretically, since your character doesn't witness that one revelatory scene in the glade, I can see Bioware just having them return to Skyhold much as they did after the quest where you help them with that summoned demon in the Dales.

I didn't realize this was coming out so soon, I thought it was still at least a few weeks off.

Hissing Wastes was easily my favorite, though.

Even little stuff like walking into an old dwarven cave on the coast zone. Everythings wet (even your clothes) and semi-reflective with the sounds of crashing waves in the background.

Same. There was one section that iirc was maybe a little longer than it should have been but I never got the level of hatred that's poured for it.

It dragged on forever and you didn't have access to your entire party for a lot of it in DA:O, making it seem worse than it would have been otherwise.

It was the fade and yeah I always thought people over-reacted to it. I mean I get it, it may not have been the best but the way people went on about it, you would think it was the most insanely long thing ever. I beat origins relatively early so the hate for that level hadn't reached its high point by then.

I'd dump Blackwall for Vivienne. Solas is pretty nice as Rift Mage. Good for enemy control using Thunder Cage and that Rift Vortex.

The thing with using Vivienne is that you have to USE Vivienne to be OP. AI doesnt know how to use KE to break the game.

I assume youre just playing on Normal anyway so I guess its no concern to be OP.

Make armor using Fade-Touched Obsidian / Silverite if you can, it gives Guard on Hit. So your tanks that just beat enemies with a stick? Generating infinite Guard. SCIENCE.
