DC in advance I want to say that I found the story of this game really good. It's the only reason this game at all to install on his hard drive, because of Dragon Age is the concoction is miles away and carries this universe / this brand / this license, at least in my opinion, quite nice to the grave. Yes of course it is mostly up to me, because I can not stand pointless quests, but unfortunately is just a very big theme of this game.
Already the first Quest Explore the hinterland is replete with (often meaningless) orders to the brim.
Hardly one discovers the map on gehts also going already. Herbs, iron, wolves, Okularien, constellations puzzles, caves, robbers, secret passages, lost animals, sad peasants, open cracks, splinters, roots, plants, Templars, Mages, bears, mountains, Lyriumquellen, notes, quotes, books and so on and so forth. Almost everything can be enumerated (is mostly well) side quest-relevant and leaves a bar aufploppen which a clarified that one has since collected just something important and you'd have to again repeat 10x. This system does not even before liquor bottles and curtains halt.
Almost 10 hours !!! I have operated this nonsense. Constantly beaten to death newly generating opponents. Collected garbage and erased Quest points of map. During this time, you certainly have the opportunity to marvel at the great graphics, but also to wonder what the hell you just hires here with his lifetime !? Constantly hanging me a carrot in the form of a bar in front of the nose and shows all the time the collective progress of this or that root. Here, nothing further 10 hours. This diligence tasks can deal with security far more than 50 hours savvy players. I ended up doing but not pulled through and started the main quest.
As mentioned I found the staged also exciting and everything was great, by playing only one piece can not be this. After my 10 hour Messiemarathon in the rear landing I had together enough power points to track the big story over a longer period. Only eventually went out of my power points and again I had to make the power-generating points-diligence tasks. More and more new areas are unlocked and apart from the graphical setting I'm there too nothing more than elsewhere. The ödet me something to of.
RPG elements? None. Special individualization of my troops? Deleted. If levels rise only a skill point is actually distributed, the rest is automatically updated. And so I reach the 15th level hero. Fun me only the main plot, anything I find a nuisance. What the hell happened to this game?
When hero level 17 I broke. Collecting constantly new things, always close by the same generic cracks, the constant aufploppen of collecting beams and collecting rewards clear to me that this game is nothing more for me.
Conclusion:
It can no longer be dismissed out of hand, which is addressed a different audience here, as even then the times of the first part. Whether that's good or bad, everyone must decide for themselves. I for one think it is rather poor, as well as the quality of the playing time. Of course, can be in the game more than 50 hours to bring the question is not whether this is possible, but how is that possible. And this how? has been completely solved for me badly. Collect pick, and plunder wear the F button as it would probably only create a WOW. Some 5-star reviews have 100 hours !!! In this game, spent. Approximately 1/5 this time assumes the main plot. People that may deserve respect! I salute you!
The reputation of the game still enjoys, it has only to thank for the only and the first part. And the only reason why I have done this to me. But even I, the Dragon Age Child victims must realize slowly that Dragon Age was there to the end, as the credits of the last DLC of DA: O flickered across the screen.
After more than 40 hours of playing time in this game, I want finally to know nothing more of DA. I'm collecting the beams Universe animal on my nerves and I look forward to Witcher. 3
