Getting lost in dragon age origins? Okay maybe when you’re in the forest with the werewolves….maybe. But getting lost in 2? C’mon mate that’s impossible.
The problem with these options is that yeah, you can turn them off, but navigation isn't really designed with that in mind. So you'll basically be lost without them.
@@WatchMan283 That's true. While I would love to select the more immersive option to turn these ugly UI things OFF, it's not like the older gaming days where the story and journal entries would tell you exactly where to go anymore. So yeah, ultimately you'd end up completely lost.
100%. More people need to play gothic. No quest markers and the world, quests and dialogue are all designed around finding it yourself. Thats great game design but somehow it’s forgotten now
Did you play the game? Your decisions can lead to literally every companion and yourself being massacred at the end of the game. It’s very suicide mission-esque.
@@NewWasabii hes not talkjng about making good or bad decision. He's talking about the role playing aspect. From what I've seen, the options role-playing wise is be to a bit good, be good or be very good. It's feels really sanitized and clean. Like it was made to show to hr or something.
@@NewWasabii game literally makes you decide to pick someone to go with you and stop solas and claim it will have major consequences. major consequences = bruises. Later game force you to choose between saving one or the other city and no matter which city you choose other city is doomed and one companion leaves. yeah that sounds promising, right? that sounds like your decision matter. Oh wait not it doesnt, you can still visit the city and companions later come back and you cant even tell them to fuck off. You dont even have a decision to not take them back. You cant even pretend that you are not ok with them leaving, you just have to accept it and be understanding. I will give you this much, yes they recycles the mass effect 2 suicide mission idea well enough to an extent. but that is like very end of the game and it does not make this game immersive of justifies lack of decision importance, or diversity of choices for most of the game. You are so void of making decisions that it doesnt even matter who you pick in your party when starting quest, who follows you during cutscene is already predetermined making your choice of party members redundant and useless. if anything this takes away from immersion because you are in cutscene with companions you did not want with you and then once cutscene is over other party members (ones you chose) are there with you. You cant justify 90% of bad writing and lack of decisions with one good thing at the end, thats like putting a nice frosting over pile of shit and pretending its a cake.
Theres a vast difference between having a game world designed for playing without waypoints but having the options to toggle them on for help and vice versa. The first one actually implores finding your way, while the other is just a maze and hassle.

@@nikhilkashyap8701 I ended up buying the game and downloaded a mod to disable UI after getting through the demo, but I kind of regret it. I'm maybe 15 hours in and it feels like 30. I don't remember a game dragging so much more me.
@carterneis8469 Dragon Age Inquisition and Origins won game of the year. DA 2 many enjoyed but hated the setting and the developers said they were rushed. If you're talking about EA as a company, then Bioware has made it obvious they've polished the game. By all accounts, the game looks good.
@@thestuff4321it looks okay to be honest. If you’re too poor to buy it to figure it out for yourself, without feeling bad for your wallet, just say that.
My personal hate is when a so called “RPG” makes the enemy level to match the player level. So the only advantage you will ever get over the enemy is your equipment quality.. Scaling should always be player choice. Forcing it defeats the purpose of having a lvl system at all.
@@elissahe2377 lmao nice way to show your true colors. In his opinion the head size is too big - so he must be a troll because YOU think differently. But no, I bet you can’t change the head size because this game was made for people like YOU.
Is it really necessary to even have waypoints considering this ain't open world I thought this was pretty linear mission based gameplay...or am I uninformed? Lol
It’s similar to Mass Effect or Dragon Age 2. You go to hub locations to pick up quests, then go to smaller linear places to complete said quests. The world is still relatively explorable and large, just not to the extent of Inquisition or Mass Effect: Andromeda.
This isn't a video game its a marketing scam to fool people out of money and publicly even if its hate its still advertising and net usage that gives them money
Nice looking game with a fun combat ruined by wokeness. Story and characters are lost and dont feel like they have any connection to the old world and feel. Uninstalled it after prologue after waiting for years.
