Liked the first one, skipped the rest, so no loss for me.

Same. First was dope. Second was meh. Never looked back at the series. I did enjoy the character of the first tho.

Second had potential with the thematic of "We revisit the same places and how they change over the years". It was (and is) something that is not really explored in RPGs, so I don't mind that they tried something different.
Execution of it was messy, because areas were too similar (even when they were different locations). Area layout should have only been similar in the same location over time.
Story also suffered a bit from it, but honestly it was fine for me. Try something different, it might work.

But the whole wave combat system was way overdone and ruined the game for me. It would've been fine for a few encounters where it makes sense that the enemy sounds the alarm and reinforcements show up after a while, but it was used in every fucking fight.
It boiled down to "I cannot use my expensive skills, because in a round or 3 new enemies might spawn and I want to save the abilities for that". Until the fight was over and you thought "Fuck, that would've been easier if I used ability X".

Good analysis. I honestly didn't even play that far as I got bored immediately. Dragon age origins I played over like 4 times in comparison.

The logo actually made me think it was a spin-off graphic novel or visual novel or some shit.

Nothing about that says 'epic BioWare RPG'.

Amusingly enough "hitch-cock" is another medical condition that only affects trans people, where their attempt to hide the bulge fails horribly and the tape only sticks the end of the shaft to the leg. It's also referred to as "elephanting" or "pulling a tyler reks".

I went ahead and checked on twitter because some of them just use AI pics.

Here is one with no makeup from a post hairline transplant. Mr Gay, he is bleeding!

and here is one that is certainly doctored (note the eyebrows from this and the recovery pics) of his transition update.

Honestly, this one seems to actually put in effort unlike like 90+% who are just fat bald men who get their rocks off from wearing pantyhose in public.

I think I'm in the minority that actually liked Inquisition, yet I'm done with them from here on out. New AAA games for the most part for me are garbage until proven otherwise.

Inquisition wasn’t awful, it was better than 2. Still pretty pozzed though.

Yeah, Inquisition was great and I even liked Mass Effect Andromeda. I have a feeling the woke messaging will be much more prominent from now on though.

Anyone who cares about Bioware at this point is an NPC. Everyone who made that company special has either jumped ship or pozzed themselves into creative suicide.

Anyone who was still excited from Dragon Age after 2, let alone Inquisition, wasn't smart enough to see red flags like this to begin with.

Nice I'm playing it right now. I'm on Chapter 8 as a half-elf ranger/cleric multiclass and just destroying things. Hopefully BG3 is good.

– MargarineMongoose 1 point 4 years ago +1 / -0

Throne of Bhaal is BG3 as far as I'm concerned.

I'm heading back to my roots personally and rolling around as a Fighter with a big ol' sword. Gonna edit Viconia to be a thief and just get back to the core archetypes with Anomen and Imoen rounding it out. I don't think I've ever actually tried out thief without a kit. Should be interesting to see how it goes.

– krzyzowiec 2 points 3 years ago +2 / -0

Imagine trying to write a Viconia in a game these days lol. "I'm yours to command". The character basically wants to be told what to do by a strong male type who won't take her BS and doesn't show weakness.

permalink parent save report block reply

– MargarineMongoose 2 points 3 years ago +2 / -0

She also manages to show a fair bit of weakness despite being a ruthless cutthroat. You'd never see that today.

There was a lot of great writing in that game that wouldn't make it into a game today, like that peasant outside the circus tent basically saying "women, am I right?"

There's actually idiots who are excited about Bioware's trash?

They've been publishing shit games for over a decade.

Only the first was halfway good. 2nd game was wasted potential. And there's nothing good to say about the 3rd.

Super powerful spells cut the enemies' dicks off and then a couple of years later they kill themselves.
