Conspiracy? What Bioware the same company tied with EA, and social network of cretinous control freak cunts who like to censor speech and anything else they can get away with like banning someone and preventing them from accessing the game they bought, are out putting glowing 10star reviews about the work they do.

lol wow fuck you Bioware,

p.s your DA2 storylines are full of twisted shit and moral degenerating garbage that you use to drive your crummy storyline plots and characters.

DA2 is not a 10/10 game in a long shot.

The way they reused the dungeons and building interiors, makes the game pretty stale. The story seems decent at the point i've reached, but it's still a bit messy and seems to lack an overall objective other than "win" the game.

I dont think it's worth the price on steam, drop it 20% and we're talking

i personally give it a 8/10

It loses 2 points for reusing dungeons and building interiors way too much.


beyond that, the game was brilliant.

i personally give it a 0/10

but that's just temporary, because i haven't seen or played it yet.
I'll update the score once the inspection is complete.

On the disaster scale, I'll give it a 6
not a gigantic horrible mess like Tsjernobyl,
but on first looks it's coming pretty close, therefore a 6.

They certainly could have done a better job with the outdoor environments, in comparison to DA origins the map design was just poor overall. The more built up town locations, they were fine and re-using those wasn't an issue, but underground areas dungeons, estates, the dalish region, and the island.. kinda lame, in comparison to the variety in origins its a let down. The dalish region especially, the trees and lack of, its like the whole console limitation was evident in the design of outdoor areas.

herbs, poisons, traps... pointless, hardly bothered... and picking up junk,
Quote:
First off, how many rings do you pick up? I have a ring, a ring, a ring, and an ornate ring. Ring 1 is two stars and gives me +3 physical damage, Ring 2 is four stars and gives me +3 physical damage. That’s not a typo. Considering one of the only things you can change on your party are trinkets, you’d think they would have put a little more effort into naming and making trinkets at the very least unique. Additionally, why am I picking up junk at all? At one point I had a backpack full of junk, I sold it all and made 20s. One of the items was a gold bar. Apparently the people of Kirkwall think a gold brick is only useful as a weapon.
..about sums up my opinion on it aswel.

the female characters all sucked, Aveline = uni eye brow butch much?

I finished it now but I don't feel like playing it again as a different character, the replayability is off putting due to the re-use of levels. They should have just made it slightly shorter and avoided over using things, that way more might go and play another character.

Did get used to the new interface style, and much of what I didn't initially like about it, but things like menu screens characters, level-up, and not being able to check gear before choosing attributes.. just the whole menu layout was dumb, if you're looking at inventory, should be menu shortcuts within that screen layout to move to another view like talents/view.. not having to esc and or go back, can't even use the hotkeys. Small things like that are annoying, character movement or [rmb] clicking to a location from keyboard movement animation is just off/slow, and I mentioned before about not being able to click through a character to cast or direct.. dumb. I had [mmb] bound to move forward, holding down [rmb] at the same time to control direction, really could be done as one button.

other stupid things are the disappearing bodies (shit like that should really tailored for individual pc setups.. again console alert... but really stupid is the neatly stacked coins left behind.. lol and worse finding a large weapon/armor item in it. I mean if its dropping an item like that maybe just leave the body until its being collected or not yeh

The game is sort of polished in certain areas, yet very much unfinished and total design retardation has crept in others.

Enchantment?-boy... about the only funny thing in DA2.

Hopefully DA3 will be better, DA2 is like a complete trashing of DA:origins and starting again seems rushed, they don't deserve 9|10 /10 scores at all. More could be set about the game, storyline plots, characters etc

8/10 is still too high thinking about some of the crap, I give it a 6 or 7.
