alright i have been playing this since the release date and i have to say im not satisfied, there are some good but a lot of what the heck's. visually the game is amazing, the graphics rule, i just had a thing with the way the animated flemith walking in the beginning kinda looked retarded, but the game play has changed so much to something lousy, you have to continually press the attack button to fight, turning the game to more of an hack and slash. the story also is kinda sluggish, it doesn't have the same drive that origins provided, you kinda feel like ur not actually doing anything, i still don't know what the hell is going on and whats my mission, all i ve been doing is making coin, and killing hordes and hordes of enemies on reused terrain, it also becomes a huge bore when you have to go to the same map for multiple meaningless quests. now your party members are kinda interesting they have nice stories and small quests that let you get to know them a bit more, but most of them try to hit on you in the first few conversations, taking away the need to talk and get to know your party members better. i did however really enjoy the fact that you dont have to deal with armoring your party members only the weapons, takes a great deal of trouble off your shoulders, unless you liked that? the new potion and poison system is great, allowing you to order them without need to invest it a skill and running around finding raw ingredients to make it. i didn't like the fact that u cant remove runes from your weapons and armor, but did like the fact u could put runes on armor, but i did like the ability to order runes once u find the proper receipies and crafting resources. i dont know if its becaused dragon age origins was so awesome taht i am being so harsh on dragaon age II but like that say if it aint broke dont fix it. they added a whole lot of new stuff that just didnt click with a bad story. sorry bioware try again!
