Can we watch the spoilers, please? I don't want to whine about it but I didn't know anything about fighting a certain person.
I know what you mean, I also got zinged by that one.

I don't feel connected to the game, the story the fights. I do like however how the grand political scheme opens up. But the gameplay. It has been pure willpower in some levels. And i am getting tired of darkspawns.
If i finish this its only to see the grand scheme evolves. Everything else i feel completly disconected to. I've done Redcliff, Orzammar and now i try to get the mages to join the cause. Its fun how the politics in those regions happenes and how i do make choices. But the fighting isn't fun. ANd this game is about fighting.
Hopefully i will enjoy getting back to it in a few days… Perhaps this game will be a new POR 2. A game you enjoy for 30-40 min doing some fights and then you do something else. And i love POR 2. So.. here is me hoping!
EDIT: Yeah i got a little frustrated about the fighting. I probably regret this post in a few hours!
My thoughts exactly (except for the PoR2 part perhaps, haven't played it). I can only stand this game in smaller doses. The combat system as such is quite OK but it often turns into such a chore slugging through room after room oforcsdarkspawn and whatnot. Doesn't help that it's pretty easy, even on hard.
I'm really regretting not taking Cone of Cold with Morrigan's last level up. It was a choice between that or ugrading her shape-shifting abilities. Since she's a Shape Shifter, I chose the latter. I also thought it would be cool to be able to change into a bear. Sadly, shape-shifting seems to be a bit underpowered in this game.
You guys are too cynical. I can't argue if you're not connecting with it - but for me - only The Witcher has come as close to "connecting" me in years. I'd also argue it's less "epic" than the Baldur's Gate series, in which you were the direct progeny of a god, for heaven's sake! Of course, "epic" is what BioWare does, but this has a more realistic political side, for me, which grounds some of the action.
I agree with Dhruin about the story and origin. I love the story, but one thing has been bugging me. In Baldur's Gate your characters didn't automatically get up after being knocked out of a fight and you didn't recharge your health in record speed. I'm not liking this part of the game one bit.
There's actually quite a few niggling things that annoy me about DA. How about the fact that you can instantly switch party members anytime anywhere? Nevermind the fact that I left those guys back at camp, I can apparently teleport them back and forth instantly!
Eh? That hasn't been my experience. I can only switch them in 'non combat' areas like cities. Once I enter a combat zone (like, 95% of the game), I can't switch. Maybe this is part of the 'hard' difficulty?
It's the same on Normal difficulty as well.Once I enter a combat zone (like, 95% of the game), I can't switch. Maybe this is part of the 'hard' difficulty?
