Why this series fate was so cruel?

Why this series fate was so cruel?
It started so good with the DAO. After doing the human noble origin, making through the Wardens trial and surviving the lost battle I was feeling, like a real adventure and epic (even if cliche) tale was opening upon me.

What other games with character creation can recreate this feeling?

The Mass Effect trilogy is pretty good.

Grim Dawn.

Human Origin is the boringest one to me, but you do get some nice unique dialogue towards the endgame

I'm afraid DAO is the last relic of a bygone era. It was one of the last rpgs in modern times with a silent main character and no real time combat. Kotor is very similar if you haven't 'layed that.

Neverwinter Nights 2 is pretty similar to this game, but has a bit more indepth RPG mechanics, give it a try.
Original campaign is a bit meh but still worth a playthrough; expansions on the other hand are pure elder god tier.

Pillars of Eternity
Obviously Baldur's Gate games
>Witcher trilogy
Kingdoms of Amalur... I guess, great gameplay and lore.
Dragon's Dogma
>Elder scrolls
Divinity Original sin. Although, "shitty" meme story with AMAZING gameplay

>human noble origin

>Divinity Original sin
I wonder if they're going to make story less cringeworthy in the second game.

hopefully
Couldn't get past 15 hours. A damn shame, but it was fucking unbearable.

It's the most satisfying one other than Dwarf noble. Confronting Arl Howe with his evil banter about your family is good stuff.

What was wrong with the story? Was thinking about playing it

It's just cheesy as fuck is all. Might even seem cute at first but actually gets more grating the further you progress.
Could be matter of taste though, try it yourself.

Started a new playthough recently, does Shale make for a good tank? My main character was the tank for my first playthrough and I find Alistair obnoxious so I want to replace him ASAP.

As I said meme story.
Not a single serious story moment, as far as I know.
Some characters are great and serious, but it's like putting batman in toontown, sure funny first hour. Serious topics "narrated" as if by a 14 year old Sup Forums faggot.
There are some sad or dark moments, but there's no time too breathe or "take it in".
Maybe it gets better, I'm sure I'll finish it one day.
An analogy can be a self-conscious ironic guy who can never be serious.

Shale has a special ability that helps with armor and regens health while Shale just stays in one spot. Works good for dragon fights.

>Alistair
If you keep calling him out on his bullshit he actually stops crying like a bitch nigga all the time.
>Shale
She's actually fragile as fuck, get Wynne and give her arcane warrior specialization, gg you win forever.

All characters grow in the game depending on your choices.
Mostly Leliana and Alistair, they can be completely different by end of game, or worse.

>Dragon's Dogma
This mother fucker right here.

Pro tip: The gog version is cheaper than on steam
Or, you could just pirate it.

I want to buy Dragons Dogma but i heard that gog version sucks. Should i buy it on Humble store for €11,99 or wait for steam summer sale? It's -60% right now on humble, how cheap it usually is on steam sales?
I played it and story is much better. Feel personal so you actually care about it and I dare to say is even interesting.
Companions are still meh at best. How could they made so good characters with so good VA and so much personality in Dragon Commander and then make so bland and uninteresting companions in their crpg is beyond me.

>i heard that gog version
How so?

*sucks

gog version save pawns at cdp servers.
steam version save pawns at capcom servers.
They are completly seperate so gog version have much less pawns than steam version.

*fever
Fever pawns than steam version

>v
fuck
me

So the pawns are hotter at GoG? What;s the problem?

it's spelled fewer* you mongoloid

I realized that right as I clicked 'post'.

I still want a Dragon Age 4.

Just play some modules for nwn.
