    I loved DA:O but I couldn't play DAII because it was such a terrible port. Will Inquisition make sense if I skipped DAII like I suspect many people have?

    Terrible port?

    It was watered down and had a few peculiar quirks but it was by no means a terrible game.

    I had no issues with Dragon Age II -- having said that, I haven't played and finished it either. The few hours I played of the game I enjoyed (couldn't have been more than 10 hours, though).

    Edit: Need for Speed: Undercover; now that game ughh... Driving mechanic sucked (metal) balls! Uninstalled that s**t almost the same time I installed it.

    As bad as The Run can sometimes present itself, I actually still enjoy it (albeit at the locked 30FPS).

    You know, the ctrl c + ctrl v nature of pretty much everything really ruined it for me. It was poor, and I think everyone, including BioWare, knew it.

    Excited for DA:I though, can't wait to play!

    For shame. FOR SHAME.

    Oh, I didn't mind the copy-pasta thing much. Of course it's not what you expect with a big name like BioWare behind it but it's something I could live with.

    My biggest criticism is largely levelled at how everything just seemed so "all over the place" story-wise.

    But, in saying that, I did enjoy the story, I liked the characters, the ending was unexpected and I really had a, "No fucking way! YOU DUMBASS!" moment which I loved.

    It's still an 8/10 game for me. BioWare would have to really screw up for me to ever distrust their ability to release great games. (*cough* Mass Effect 3 ending *cough*)

    My biggest issue in the past has largely been courtesy of EA and their "pre-purchase" incentives along with the downright idiocy in giving certain territories watered down "collector's editions" or excluding them completely (here's looking at you, ZA).

    We should take a tally of:

    "What are you MOST looking forward to between these two (2) titles:"
    Dragon Age: Inquisition or Far Cry 4.

    It appears to be a half-and-half currently, on the forum.

    Before I saw gameplay of DA: I, I saw of FC4 - and was instantly sold. Some months later I saw Inquisition and was even more enthralled, oddly enough. Don't get me wrong, FC4 is still the tits, but DA: I... Something about it attracts me a lot more. Maybe it's because I love a game with an in-depth story and gameplay that fills my cup.

    Yeah, DA2 on its own wasn't such a bad game. As a sequel to DA:O it completely blows, though. There's just so much wrong with it compared to DA:O.

    I finished it, liked it, but could never go back to it.
