Cuz "fuck Bioware they aren't the same after ME2" was all the circlejerk back then. Inquisition is actually a pretty damn good game. It has flaws but you're gonna have a lot of fun regardless.
Try not to get burnt out though, OP, as the gameplay does get repetitive later on. The base game is long as shit and the expansions are huge as well. I regret that I burnt out by the end and wasn't able to play them.
Which class are you playing and on what difficult?
Matthew Barnes
Eh, I never had this mindset but I still didbt care that much about inquisition. Combat was nice but the quest and progression system sucked ass. So many side quests and fetch bullshit deluded the story so much that I had no idea what was going on or what the plot even was 2 hours in. To make matters worse theyes force you to do the sidequests to even progress the main story. Dropped it after playing it for a whole day and never finished it.
Austin Ramirez
The best part of this game is the romances and they're shit.
probably because you have shit taste, Inquisition is mind-numbingly boring
Anthony Edwards
witcher 3 sucks ass i literally cant understand how this shit game is praised so much combat sucks, copy paste npc, stupid gimmicks, interacting with world feels like pulling thread through a needles eye, blasphemous music, outdated graphics, really bad voice acting, etc etc if you like this game you might be autistic fuck faggoto
Zachary Cooper
>blasphemous music explain your adjective
Jeremiah Price
Its colorful and fun. Goes down easy. Like Croc
Jason Ramirez
I watched it played through by a guy who put himself through more hours of shitty DA games than a man should bear, and it looked like a single-player MMO game but a really bad one. If you're into that sort of thing I'm sure it'd have fun gameplay if you sucked down and stomached the painfully shitty story, but I'd sooner suggest a .hack// or SA:O game instead.

Evan Edwards
You may have a problem with being too interested in jingling keys.
Go try fighting a dragon with the awful movement system and come back to us
Except Blackwall, Blackwall is okay
Anthony Ortiz
Unironically Dragon Age 2 had better Side Quests.
I'll forever be mad at DA2 not getting the polish it needed, because the premise was god tier and if the Qunari arc was only a small piece of it's potential, it becomes a crime how good DA2 could have been without being shoved out the door
Christian Cook
>Why is this game receiving all this hate again? - Shitty writting - SHITTON of MMO fetch quest, and not light like DAO - Fucked up aesthetic - Terrible graphic - Story and protag was predicted/spoiled before the release
Nathaniel Harris
Frostbite engine is not tailored for rpgs. Inventory, skill screen etc feels weird.
Noah Gray
Also controls are horrid on pc.
Jason Ward
fuck witcher but this is clearly a bait thread
Juan Green
So that's why Witcher 3 is so popular.
Hunter Taylor
Inquisition doesn't receive hate unless it's in relation to Origins. On it's own no one ever thinks about, it's not bad and it's not good. It's acceptably average so long as you skip the mmo shit tier sidequests. With the dlc it's more good than bad since it fixes most of the terrible problems base game has. Still shit in relation to Origins, but passable
Charles Campbell
DA:I has one of the best character creators in western RPGs. And the DLC were actually pretty great, especially Trespasser.
Logan Hill
Inquisition was kinda okay. No more, no less. Better than ME3 and DA2 by far, but that isn't saying much. The Gameplay can be fun, but is mostly an mmo style boring grind, the story is very meh, the characters are hit and miss. The main story missions are fun and really long, but there are only like 5 of them.
The ending of Trespasser pissed me off to the extreme though.
Eli Ortiz
>overweight Keep management which takes significant time from game process >more MMO quests >gameplay is a mess, like they tried to add Souls-like gameplay to DA2 gameplay >Dorian's "conflict" with father >Returned to Character's origins system >completely fucked it up, since all possible inquisitors starting in the same place in the same situation, so barely means anything >Protag is the guy from DA2 DLC >DAO >Stann patiently explains Wynn why Qunari prefer to keep females out of the battlefield, linking it to their heavily structured society and philosophy >DA2 >Qunari now are Draeni/Tiflings >DAI >well actually Qunari are totally pro-tranny
Jose Wood
>Stann patiently explains Wynn why Qunari prefer to keep females out of the battlefield, linking it to their heavily structured society and philosophy >DA2 >Qunari now are Draeni/Tiflings >DAI >well actually Qunari are totally pro-tranny This is what killed it for me. It went from actual "not!Islam" with rules and structures to unify violent savages and then became, instead, whatever leftists are calling you awful for not liking. It got infected by Otherworship like every left leaning ideal does.
Benjamin Thompson
Don't forget that the Black Bull or whatever his name is also has a tranny as second in command of his merc band full of snowflakes
Angel Thompson
>A guy in on the right thing Inquisitor supposed to be scout/spy Also, what was the point of Varrick and Sera being a party members?
Benjamin Hill
How do i get good on hardest difficulty. Im playing mage and i hit a nofun wall. I just wanna keep progressing but i feels like i gotta grind to get past the part im at HOW GET GUD?
Liam Diaz
that's literally what they're referring to
Eli Ortiz
Nah, they were referring to the Qunari retcon, not about there literally being a tranny npc.
Camden Morgan
>i feels like i gotta grind to get past the part im at HOW GET GUD? Just play mage in DAO
Benjamin Powell
fuck you, answer my question or eat shit
Alexander Carter
Iron Bull only brings it up if you ask about the tranny NPC. They're intrinsically related.
Ryan Morris
Oh Jesus, I was going to try inquisition again since I don't remember why I dropped it in the first place until you mentioned the side quests. Thank god for Greefall.
Jackson Hill
The tranny npc has not been mentioned anywhere before, smartass.
Isaiah Peterson
I am answering. DAO mage is much more rewardable experience
Jayden Walker
No, i played DAO and its not.
Joseph Sullivan
The Qunari retcon doesn't exist without the NPC. Mentioning one implies the other.
Luke Johnson
>Why is this game receiving all this hate again?
Because BioWare made it, and because it has a gay character, a lesbian character, and a tranny character in it, bear in mind none of their sexualities are ever revealed to you or relevant at all unless you choose to go down that path but just the fact that they're even there triggers Yea Forums for some reason.
It's a fine RPG. BioWare has made better games and it's far from perfect, but it's fun and well written with mostly likeable characters. It's a solid 8/10 in my book and though there are some, as you put it, "cringy" dialog moments I don't at all regret the 60+ hours I sunk into it. I certainly enjoyed it more than anything I've played this year so far.
Dominic Rogers
>bear in mind none of their sexualities are ever revealed to you or relevant at all unless you choose to go down that path The faggot wizard brings up his faggotry straight off the bat and Krem tells you about it in the regular-ass "gathering information" conversation you can have with any NPC Krem is especially hilarious because she obviously looks like a woman and is obviously voiced by a woman putting on a slightly deeper voice, but apparently everyone is supposed to be fooled into thinking she could be a man
Mason Howard
The game is hated because it plays like a single player MMO where 60% percent of the game is fetch quests that have no substance. I even enjoyed the game for what it was, but I completely understand that there is a lot to hate about this game.
Luke Foster
>blasphemous music I'd like for you to expand on this.
Angel Bailey
This thread again? Are you trying to shill for people to care about DA4 by any chance?
Joseph Gomez
Tell us what the blasphemous music is
Joshua Russell
Cool story, Shill.
Jonathan Adams
No one shills 5 year old games
Chase Sanders
they do when a sequel is in development and they're trying to soften the hate for the previous game, especially after their last sequel was a complete disaster of a sequel to an already widely-reviled game.
Gavin Garcia
iron bull mentions tranny's in the army without krem its when hes in party as side talk something like "when a female joins the army she becomes a man" or some shit like that
Dominic Gray
I hated the first DA because it's such a dumbed down NWN2 copy thought out for consoles and even the story is a summarized version of what happens in NWN2. But, after a while, I ended up forgetting about it and enjoying it. DA:I starts great but falls down so sudden that I dropped it just as quick.
Colton Williams
>Shilling at least 3+ years in advance for a game that is not even certain to come out at this point You are paranoid, look at smash threads if you want to call out artificial shill memes lol
Brandon Perry
he doesn't mention trannies in the Qun unless you ask him about Krem because trannies in the Qun are entirely irrelevant without the context of Krem.
Nathan Ward
Cassandra: I am surprised you accept fighting at a woman's side, Bull. I understood Qunari women didn't fight. Iron Bull: If a Qunari women really wants to fight and has a gift for it, she becomes an Aqun-athlok. The Aqun-athlok joins the warriors and is treated like a male. He becomes a guy, for all intents and purposes.
found it
Noah Hernandez
astroturfing is insidious. One thread saying DA:I wasn't that bad every so often, whatever. But they've been practically daily for the past month
Zachary Gray
>the hate for the previous game Yea Forums isn't real life, the game was actually well received. Even shittier games have been more successful. People are probably replaying the series because DA is 10 years old now. Sometimes 1 person replaying a series is enough for daily threads. Nothing special, one time there were daily Asscreed threads because a single person was replaying it and had no friends to talk about it
Logan Butler
Because it isn't DA:O
Evan Ramirez
>Yea Forums isn't real life how the fuck does that matter? we're on Yea Forums, we're talking about threads on Yea Forums also at the end of the day I couldn't give a fuck what normalfag casuals like, they'll play any game as long as you auto-generate a giant world and throw some collectibles in it
Christian Hughes
they still pay you lmao?
Adrian Thomas
No, people are shilling the game because Greedfall came out and is much better than anything Bioshit has spewed in the past years.
Camden Gutierrez
Yea Forums is still one of the highest traffic video game forums on the internet, and companies know it. You can pretend marketers don't come here all you like, but DAI was blatantly shilled here before release, and it's getting shilled here again to soften opinions before an upcoming DA4 announcement.
Jeremiah Jackson
Yes and the 5 people here that actually play video games had no impact on the game's success, do you really think they would come to this le evil alt-right literally hitler shithole to shill a game that is in the distant vague future? Fucking kek
Xavier Flores
I’d like Inquisition more if there was more build variety.
Jayden Turner
>Greedfall shill threads are so well made that people point somewhere else Gotta hand it to Spiders, they are good at this
Jacob Harris
I don't know how you think marketing works. It doesn't take a huge concerted marketing campaign for that shit, you just need to have one of your 50 """social media experts""" who do stealth marketing also make a couple of threads on Yea Forums a day
Hunter Taylor
>I don't know how you think marketing works. Marketing works through internet memes now. Has been like this for a while
Jaxson Lopez
here's how to make DA:I passably fun >enable that challenge that always raises enemies to at least your level so you don't have to get bored fighting through trash enemies >roll a rogue so you can cut through the damage sponge enemies (I went with a bow assassin personally) >ignore absolutely every single quest that isn't a companion or main quest, all sidequests are underdeveloped fetch quests >don't go exploring, it's just another Ubisoft tier open world with copypasted "content" >install a mod that makes the war table mission bullshit complete instantly
Jack Morgan
Marketing surely does not work by shitting on TW3 in the opening post. No shill would do this or even dare to bring the comparsion up.
Grayson Smith
>number of companions and advisors equal 12 >Inquisitor is the Herald and everyone calls him the savior >Solas is second spot to the left of the Inquisitor >same spot Judas sits from Jesus
that's basically how they shilled it back when it launched
Adrian Watson
Remember when Witcher 2 vs DA2 were actual shitposting threads we had? And they quieted down real fast after DA2 was actually released lel I remember it because I was literally a biodrone going "i-it's just a demo they'll fix it" when ANOTHER WAVE came out, but thank fuck it made me wary enough to not buy the game
Gavin Long
TW3 wasn't out and didn't have 5000 awards when DA:I launched
Easton Harris
It's a single player MMO. I guess if you're a MMO guy you would enjoy it. I got sick of all the fetch quests personally
see none of the fetch quests past the first area are actually required in general, allowing yourself to skip """content""" is a great thing these days
Oliver Sullivan
yeah, but if the archive still existed you could see dozens of DAI threads using the same OP image shitting W3 regardless
Luke Howard
>none of the fetch quests past the first area are actually required They are because shit is level locked
Ryan Reed
see >>enable that challenge that always raises enemies to at least your level so you don't have to get bored fighting through trash enemies
Brayden Flores
I started DA:I last week after buying it in 2015 and dropping it after 2hr
its a single player MMO with theme parks. now im actually fine with it since I'm a retard that enjoys a few hours of mindless grinding, but the performance of the game is terribad and the characters are not particularly interesting. it says a lot that the most interesting characters are the ones from the previous games
still its perfectly servicable entertainment if bored
David Garcia
>using the same OP image Lol it's just from the wiki and among the first google results
