I remember playing about half of DA: Origins before it began taking over my life so I had to stop. DA2 apparently sucked. This one got a lot of critical praise when it came out and people seemed to like it at the time but I haven’t heard a peep about it since then. Worth playing? Did it stand the test of time or get washed out?
I recall gameplay not great and probably even more dated, but I enjoyed all the characters and running around with them
It was somewhat an upgrade to DA2’s combat, but gods did I hate the fact that it was essentially a single-player MMO. I wish it was more akin to DA:O.
Inquisition was so bad it killed my interest in the franchise. Didn’t live up to the fantasy of running a powerful organization, the companions weren’t especially interesting, and the removal of party AI made more complicated fights like the optional dragons an exercise in tedium.
Yeah same
I adore the first two games, they are some of my favourite games ever, and then there’s Inquisition which I just hate lmao. It’s just so dreadfully boring to me, almost certainly not going to get Dreadwolf either tbh
I personally loved it, although it’s been since 2016 when I played it last. I put 95 hours into it and was disappointed that there wasn’t more. I’ve tried a handful of times to go back to it over the years, and still enjoyed it every time, but something always ends up coming up where I can’t put the time into it.
It’s also one of the few games of its type (out of the ones I’ve played anyway) that has romance subplots but doesn’t have a hardcoded sex scene at any point, which I always appreciated. I assume that depends on the particular character you’re romancing, but with my playthrough it never happened.

Played it pirated. It’s nice but the camera control suck
I really liked DA2, despite it’s flaws. It was well-acted at least. Thanks for the heads up on this one.
DA2’s combat was a disaster (turn based tactical aesthetic with waves spawning in wherever the fuck the feel like? sign me up…) but I liked that instead of traveling the world on some epic journey you more or less stayed in one place and saw how it changed over a decade. It was just something I hadn’t seen before & I really enjoyed it.
I liked it a lot! Only huge criticism I have for it is that it takes about 12 hrs of gameplay for it to begin opening up.
I’ve heard good things, too, but never played it. I think it’s kinda single-player MMORPGish.
The annoying part of my brain wants to replay DAO and DA2 to make a save for DAI, but that doesn’t sound like a good use of my time lol

Yep, it’s Dragon Age Keep in case anyone is interested. I got choice paralysis from it tbh lol
it’s really tedious though in its MMO like gameplay
i liked origins and i’m fucking mad they never made more games that were actually like that.

Don’t burn yourself out in the Hinterlands, move on to the next places. You can come back later
