What went so fucking RIGHT

What went so fucking RIGHT.

Nothing it was a shit sex simulator.

nothing went right

it started out alright, but let's not talk about where it went

>good intro sequence getting you invested
>those slow motion executions
>the gore in general
>rewarding exploration
>good combat
>well designed and likeable characters
>high stakes
>a good cliffhanger
>tons of fun interactions making your character feel alive

just a fun experience all around, one of the greats

>those slow motion executions
Fuck you, these add literally nothing to the game.

...

except satisfactory moments of reprieve while you get to watch your character brutally mutilate a big enemy?

Oh boy, how exciting the first time you see it. Every other time you see the same animation and have to sit and wait just to keep playing.

sorry your adhd ridden brain can't enjoy well made finishers because it takes 5 seconds too long

arguing that you'd rather they just fall over dead is fucking moronic

MC
Shale
Morrigan

5 seconds is being generous.
Fight is over and I'd like to move on with my life, but no, I'm stuck in this animation for the next 10 seconds for absolutely no reason. For a long game this just adds to the tediousness.

>yfw we will never get an actual ending to the wardens story
>yfw even if we do get an ending it will be made by nu-bioware and it probably involve morrigan cucking you with a qunari

>absolutely no reason
You keep saying that even though you know yourself it's bullshit

It clearly adds to the already very dark and gritty atmosphere and makes you feel good (maybe not you because you're special)

It's being used as a rewarding experience for beating a tough enemy and most people including myself appreciate that

I don't know why you play video games like DA and not just excel spreadsheets if you can't stomach a "10 second long animation" every 3 or 4 hours of a 50 hour game

>every 3 or 4 hours
It happens on every single Ogre. These pointless kill animations have never bothered me in other games, it's just this one.
In the end they aren't that bad, but how could you possibly say it was something the game did right?

>you don't get to fuck Duncan before he bites it
2/10, shit game

nothing, it's a shit game, one of the worst RPGs ever made

Because it accomplished what it set out to do, reward players with a gory finish and make them feel far more powerful through that

>pointless
>in the end they aren't that bad
You can honestly go fuck yourself with your wishy-washy attitude

If I wanted to be rewarded for nothing there are tons of other games I could play.
Pointless doesn't necessarily mean bad, you fucking troglodyte.

DA:O Remake?

oh, look. a dumb shitposter

>synonyms for pointless
>meaningless, unproductive, futile, ineffectual
>not necessarily bad

You don't get rewarded for nothing, you get rewarded for overcoming a tough hurdle
Quit acting like some hardcore gamur, you edgy child.

This. Good and best boi

>Quit acting like some hardcore gamur
I played on fucking easy, no one is acting hardcore here. You're just refusing to acknowledge that there are better ways to reward players for doing well.
Even a shitty QTE for the kill would be better instead of having to watch while doing nothing.

No, I'm arguing that BioWare accomplished what it set out to do by adding execution animations, it's a good addition to the game and it would be worse without it
>wanting to add QTEs
>ever
I'm done writing in this particular thread

can't get me through a second playthrough tho.

Hunterclass too fucking op.
morrigan best waifu.

what else is there more?

Don't leave yet we were having so much fun.

DAO is unironically the only Bioware game I actually like. It's a solid RPG all around, albeit nothing really spectacular. Compared to other bioware garbage like Shitter's Gate 2, though, DAO is a true masterpiece, since it has something Shitter's Gate 2 can only dream of: an actually existing level of challenge and roleplaying depth.

One can only hope... Would probably happen in 10-20 years and I would shit bricks if that happened.

It's strange how much I like this game DESPITE the fucking Fade and Deep Roads.

>no voiced protagonist
Of course, this explains so much.

Low key was the best melee tank.

Fpbp and /thread. Bioware has always been shit at making games the only reason they used to be popular was because of those horribly animated sex scenes that were taboo once but fucking everywhere now thanks to SFM. And much higher quality. And free.

Literally witcher 1 is fucking better and that game is eurojank as fuck. biowarEA is just cancer

Why would you hate the Deep Roads? Anyone into RPGs should love gigantic dungeons.

Its depth only made the journey down there feel more epic and rewarding.

>Handsome
>Funny
>Kind
>10/10 tank
>Secretly a king
>Virgin but a sex god laying dormant underneath once you unlock it.
>The way his voice changes when you romance him.


I know it’s trendy to gush over Garrus, but Alistair is BY FAR the best straight romance option Bioware has ever given women.

I totally get you but I think they were too long and ugly.

Descent DLC for Inquisition was better imo.

>Handsome
Pretty standard.
>Funny
He tries to be funny but comes off as a gigantic dork.
>Kind
Somewhat.
>10/10 tank
That's not character but build-based.
>Secretly a king
Smells like mary sue.
>Virgin but a sex god
No, just a virgin.
>The way his voice changes
Never heard of that one.

Talking darkspawn. Made you feel for them since they arent all evil

I wish they kept the glowing eyes shtick from the trailers.

>install better sex mods
>change my character into Desire Demon
>came buckets
Can't believe it has been almost 10 years since those buckets came out.

the ending is the Warden dies to save Ferelden, letting Alistair take the throne so it doesn't fall into the hands of a kingslayer's daughter. He announces he'll do something nice for your family/the other wizards/your elf colony/the dwarves, and everyone lives happily ever after.
>letting morrigan get pregnant with the fucking archdemon

>when you just want to be a good boy but end up still spreading magic aids unintentionally

This was the ending I got and thought it was fitting for my character.
Kinda disappointed I have to do the DLCs as my suddenly alive and well character.

He's an unfunny manchild faggot though.

That pirate chick talks about how amazing he is after your threesome

His voice softens and he talks slower. He sounds like a completely different character.

He is 100% a Mary Sue, but the story demanded one and he took the hit instead of making the player one.

Speaking of Alistair, is it possible to king him AND spare Loghain?

I think so.
Gotta harden the SHIT outta him, tho.

Sure. Alister will get seriously butthurt though, and he'll stop supporting you.

Yes. And force him to marry Anora. 10/10 Alistair torture porn. Shame you can force him to fuck Morrigan too if you go down that route.
I believe that high approval is required as well, along with the maxed out coercion skill.

stop spaming this shit and go suck on anita's toes you cuck.

Eh, I prefer the whole Arhurian feel of leaving the world behind with Morrigan and your child. I imagine my Warden just fucked off to live a simple life far from civilization raising his son and trying to make sure he doesn't turn into an eldritch abomination. Use his powers for good.

Hell could even have a sequel where the Wardens son ventures out into the world buffed by his Old God power and becomes a mighty and just hero.

shatter combos

>pic doesnt give shep the red dragon age armor

>autistic shitposter
Time for me to leave the debate too.

Who the fuck are you?

Yes that was my original playthrough ending.

>Tell Alistair to toughen up after his quest where he meets his half sister
>Have him marry Anora
>Spare Loghain
>Fuck Morrigan anyway so I take the final blow and live

Devlish

holy shit is inquisition boring and slow and shit

I have a stronger preference for Neverwinter Nights 2 because it is essentially the same story but with better gameplay.

>Implying this game came out after Aretard Shitkeesian fucked everyone over.

It would be cool to see how EA fucks it up.

>it probably involve morrigan cucking you with a qunari
YES PLEASE

You didn't have to there was the option to play as a new warden.

Heres how my dragon age universe went

>Human noble male
>made allstars king and anora queen because I believe he has the heart and she has the brains
>killed longhair myself because hes a traitor and a coward
>morrigan got preggo and I fucked off with her into that portal
>sided with the architet because I thought it was the only way to make the blight end
>male hawke
>murdered the qnari leader because fuck him for invading my city
>marry the elf girl
>murdered anders for being a doofus
>human noble male again
>marry cassandra and made her divinity or whatever it was
>kept the inquisition going
>told solas I was going to prove him wrong
>left hawke to die
>iron bull betrayed me

Iron bull betrayal kind of upset me a little bit but fuck him I needed the qnari alliance and not his merc band full of trannies

>>marry the elf girl
>>murdered anders for being a doofus
So you killed one retard and married another?

It's not as good as you remember.

the game starts off so well and has that old school wrpg feel and then just kinda turns meh. characters were decent and I loved the dog

Elf girl didnt bombed anything or started a war. Also shes cute

I just played it and heavily enjoyed it.
Except for the pontless kill animations.

>I would very much prefer there would be no kill animations in a game, instead some stale swinging until one drops dead


Why are you like this

I hope DA4 has a female tank.
I like female tanks.

tfw allistair dumps you when he becomes king. i just wanted to be an elf queen. Why is he such a dick?

i like to fuck female tanks

>playing as a female
>playing as a elf
>playing as a female elf

>being a literal subhuman

You deserve this.

>marrying an elf
No one is that much of a cuck, not even Alistair. They're for being pumped and dumped.

>spare loghain
>tell morrigan to fuck off
>kill the archdemon yourself
Reminder that's the only correct way to play

yes. dalish are comfy to play as. i'm a sneaky archer elf. i thought what i had with allistair was special. why do they hate our kind so much?

Then when the inquisition comes along, leave Hawke behind and exile the Wardens.

>I played on fucking easy
Same. The DA games are even on easy pretty hard. I died a lot in all 3 games on the easiest difficulty because nobody says which enemie is for which level, in Origins I assumed everything that is available is beatable on your level, but no. After 20 hours I turned on easy.

uncalled for. I was a cute elf woman. alistair liked me. very mean.

Maybe if you weren't such a cuck you could have got him and Leliana.

It's just basic bilogy user. Elves are predisposed to be promiscuous, cowardly and servile. Perfect to farm your fields, clean your chamber pot, or warm your bed. But without human benefactors to watch over them, the elves quickly get confused and sometimes lash out in violent ways. The Dalish don't know what to do with themselves, that's why they aimlessly wander around and stumble into consorting with demons. They need to be brought back into the fold desu.

wasn't sure what Leliana's angle was. she said she manipulates people, and she does it well because she's a bard. Also i didn't want to do gay things.

I played on easy because I play DA for the story

Shut the fuck up Merryl is best wife just after cassandra

but they make for good clans. no-one is going to enjoy being a servile slave. they are wise.

Don't worry.
Day of the Veil soon, vhenan.

he seemed to like me at the end of tresspasser. but i don't want him to kill all the humans.

this but unironically

Please explain to me the point of a kill animation on my 3rd Ogre in a row. It's the same animation, same shitty mook enemy and not a single difference in outcome.
I enjoyed one kill animation and it was on the Arch Demon. It felt fitting and it was the climax, so I don't mind at all to sit and watch for a few seconds.

>good clans
>need human intervention in every game in order to not get themselves killed
Truly, it is the human burden.
Merrill is the perfect example of why the elves can't make it on their own. She consorted with a demon to reactivate a cursed object that killed one or two of her friends. She can't even navigate the city she has lived in for six years.

You are the king of mental retardation.

explain yourself. NWN2 had way better RP mechanics.

>how EA fucks it up
>EA

Remember that time you could use micro-transactions to improve your party members opinion of you

I don't know where to begin explaining because I can't understand what planet you come from. NWN2 was such a heap of glass shards and excrement it was actually defended as being 'ironic' and 'playing with CRPG tropes', because nothing else could explain how Obsidian would produce such a heap of bland, unlikable crud. And it had fewer actual decisions you could make than Origins did, while we're at it. It just gave you more skill checks that don't mean anything.

But that's not what you said. You said it has better gameplay. A D&D 3e game, the absolute worst among the three D&D 3e games that exist, with an interface styled after Windows 95 that doesn't even have the decency to scale and a camera designed by Satan xirself, is better than a game that has a working AI and a combat system that allows you to at least use some of your brain. You remind me of a friend of mine who sucks Bioware's dick even after Andromeda but refused to play this because camera fixed on the party somehow made playing impossible.

Bumping because I wanna see him reply to this

But if he has fun it isn't a bad thing. I don't like a large majority of their games neither, but if people have fun with Andromeda I say "Good for you, have fun".

heh
