Anonymous12/28/25, 23:16No.3899241Actually a really good game
Combat system: seamlessly go from RT 3rd person action to RTWP to tactics-like gameplay as you please
Exploration: feels like Skyrim/The Witcher 3 in its open world stuff, though perhapsore like The Witcher 3 with zone objectives and so on. Also, the conversations between some of the NPCs in your party can be hilarious (e.g: Dorian + Iron Bull).
Lore: the setting is great and there is so much to be learned about the world by reading random notes and conversations.
Story: fantastically paced with an intriguing whodunnit mystery at the start and a few plot twists along the way. Decisions matter!

It is, and even the worst of the tranny-core party member can be denied membership in the Inquisition. This game is an excellent piece that thankfully normalniggers forgot about, and I would argue is the best in the series. The incorporation of the Council and political elements (holding trials) seals the deal for me.
This game needs to be on GOG yesterday. There are cracks of it but I don't feel like torrenting.

I never knew this game even came out. I imagine it came out in some bad storefront and like every other modern game wasn't advertised at all.DA2 was bad and so were ME2 and ME3. Why should I trust DAI?

The mobile-like time gated shit was cancer and the game dragged way too much. I enjoyed it at first but had to force myself to finish it. I disagree about the story. It was predictable garbage and i vividly remember the fags on the official forums predicting each of the dlcs story before they were released. Really surprised how well the game turned out after the astro turfed DA2 garbage but still, it was nowhere near as good as Origins.

The tactical camera in DAI is dogshit because it always has world collision determined at ground level. I like the game and have completed it multiple times on Nightmare with trials, but the way to make the combat fun is abandon the sad remnants of its CRPG roots, put companions on simple to automate roles (Tank, Archer, Support Mage), and play as a complicated DPS to make it more or less an action game. Also, Corypheus is a shit villian and the ending is only saved by Trespasser having what at the time was an awesome twist.

Seriously...please...does anyone know where to get a Crack without tormenting? I don't want to use the EA app like a good guy. But...Josephine is my love, and I will do it for her if I must.

Worst camera system for any rpg ever.The combat is also a weird hybrid of arpg and crpg that makes dragon age ii looks like a masterpiece.

Tried to replay it a while ago. It's really shit.
The controls are bad. It runs like shit. It looks like shit. The story is shit. The dialogue is shit. Everything is soullessly lame; skills, equipment, everything.
But it's better than the second game.

Yeah, except without any sort of tactical element. It's MMO combat made for consolebabbies, dumbed down as much as possible.
>Exploration: feels like Skyrim/The Witcher 3 in its open world stuff
Not open world. It's a number of disconnected maps that are boring as hell and have nothing of note except some gay connect the dots puzzles. The Hinterlands might be the worst first level of any game in history, and it's where a good chunk of people drop the game.
>Lore: the setting is great
So play one of the first 2 games, they actually do something with it

DA2 was better than Inquisition, a game that couldn't even afford its own big baddie.

Anon01/01/26, 17:33No.3901653
on a whole the game is underrated, though in hindsight trespasser is somewhat overrated when you get beyond enjoying seeing how the gang is doing after a couple years timeskip.
even if you leave aside how it set up shit only tacked in veilguard which is one of the worst games of the decade the actual council story is forced and retarded

Trying to do any kind of tactical positioning in this game is just insane and works 1/10 times. The "tactical" UI was obviously cut out of active development like a year before the game went gold and is completely broken.

I can't deal with the companions and it isn't a fun game to solo.
Also enemies are bullet-sponges, although there are mods for that.

I'm not a Dragon Age fan, but I did like DA:O and DA:I's story and characters (I skipped DA2 because... dunno.)However, their gameplay sucks for me. I played DA:O a long time ago so I don't remember much besides not finishing it, but DA:I actually almost made me cry out of boredom. I wanted to see the story to its conclusion, but the game broke me down. I just couldn't by the final mission, which required me to get those mana points you require to start main missions. It didn't help I was in the region with reanimating skeletons (I think?), so I was killing every enemy at least twice or thrice.I would love a Dragon Age game that either does not have combat, or changes its gameplay completely.

I remember getting bored with the checklist-style slog of activities. I never finished it and never will, especially after the release of Failguard. If, instead, Failguard had spent those ten years innovating on meaningful choice-and-consequence systems incorporating the choices of all previous games, I might have had a good reason to replay it. An rpg quadrilogy that culminates in distinct world states shaped by the previous three entries? Something genuinely worthy of praise, unlike the usual Telltale Games output.

I just platinumed this game for whatever reason and it fucking blows. The worst part is that it has no d-pad functionality. You have to use the analogue stick for everything! What were they fucking thinking?

I reinstalled that turd few days ago because of this thread.
I forgot how horrendous the companions were. Sera, Dorian, Cole, Iron Bull, Solas, Vivienne. It's not DAI, it's DEI. Brown gay retardation : the Team. Only Blackwall, Cassandra and Varric are tolerable.
Also, impossible the create a character that doesn't look like shit. Whoever decided to give the same haircuts for male and female, and that half of those needs to be balding buzzcuts, is a fucking tranny I swear.
And everything looks like sweaty plastic. Your hair, skin, clothes, armor, the walls around you : all made from the same material, sweaty plastic.
Only good things about this game is playing Knight Enchanter and hunting dragons. That's it. Everything else is shit.
Uninstalled itI'm tempted to pirate Veilguard to witness that catastrophe because apparently it's even worse than DAI.

Cisquisition isn't horrible, it's just such a disappointment after the peak that was DA:O. This game had more dev time and budget and was worse than DA:O in basically every way, but particularly with the story, worldbuilding, dialogue, roleplay potential, etc.

Anon01/27/26, 22:50No.3916611
it was ok. The biggest problem with it is the character SUCK. outside of Bull & Varric, the "allies" are LITERALLY FORGETTABLE (Cole), boring for most of the game (Blackwall + Solas), or annoying beyond belief ( Sera, and Vivienne ). Leaving Dorian and Cassandra dancing the line of good or mildly bland.
