Unfortunately, instead of a more action-adventure role-playing game

The game makes it a really not easy - it constantly fluctuates between frustration and desire and you will not shake the feeling that it was published at least one year too soon. Like on Mass Effect 2 game some elements of the first part of the Home "simplification" fallen victim, but it did at least me personally, unfortunately, not well liked. But first things first:

-Story:
Is 95% on a by Bioware usual high level and knows how to entertain. The narrative perspective between chapters is quite successful and the passages where "a lie" is told, knowing quite entertained. Unfortunately, you realize the game itself at any point really is that years go by. Neither city nor people change.

Graphic:
During my 3 years old PC I see relatively few differences from part 1. The figures seem to be a bit more sophisticated, the environment (particularly in the few outdoor areas) has experienced for quite a step backwards ... monotonous is still a nice description ,

-Sound / Voice output:
Perfectly done and thanks speaking actor and a real improvement to the first part.

Gameplay:
Well ... here it hails then a lot of criticism.
- There is in the game felt 5 or 6 caves, of which one must visit each Felt 20-30 times

- When you see lying around somewhere skeletons, one can be certain that they have to be sooner or later, get up and fight -> script such sequences should also be able to hide better

- In the fighting opponents are often rushed en masse to one that already draw almost the entire game in the direction of a Diablo -> click, through hacking, next wave. And then come such ridiculous things as enemies who jump from several meters high walls or from any ceiling rappel added. In a fight I had to kill at least 30 looters who are of course all walked around in the best combat gear. Would unless bad, but raged in the city at that time a small war and it seems just inappropriate at this moment.

- In the fighting quickly goes flutes visibility and lack bird's the pause button is the best friend. So you have not really often the choice between tactics and "Echzeitkampf"

- Unlike the first part there are for warrior no more ability that draws constant attention of enemies to themselves. No matter what you do, there will always be an enemy chase at least their own mages or rangers who then run even penetrating further and further away instead of going toward the warrior. In larger battles I change rather then the mage or rogue and leave the KI my warriors - then that makes it a little more fun

- The struggles now seem indeed dynamic, but the automatic tracking of the enemy seems to have been forgotten. The enemy moved a little out of range you have to constantly run after itself. Another point that affects the playing of a negative Nahkämpfers

- With many side quests that are started by collecting an item, there is in my opinion, absolutely improper "acceptance speeches" in the delivery -.> I have delivered the skeleton of a criminal and the NPC says to me something in the direction of "Thank you, I would have never thought that ever recover "... ahja

- The companion to grow a not really fond of, which is also due mainly to the lack of storage (one central place where you can talk to everyone). At some point you will simply no longer graze each hut to see if it VLT. a call option gives. The dwarf Varric only here a ray of hope - to the "debates" of Morrigan and Alli Star current companions are also hardly ran. From humor of shale we just do not want to talk.

- There are tons of items ... but unfortunately, you can go to sell 98% of it immediately, because you only allowed to change the armor of the hero as in Mass Effect 2. The magician a new robe? It does not work. Only weapons and jewelry can be changed, where the dwarf also falls again from the role. This has a crossbow, which is stronger with each level advancement and also can not be replaced.

- With which we are already at the next point ... the 2nd archer in the team is thus almost pointlessly, because you have to increase at this 2 attributes (wisdom for box Crack and skill for current weapons). Since you only Chapter 2 gets about this NPC, you have to either pull up only wisdom, so that one at all can open the boxes or the current one increases the other value, so current weapons can be worn -> clear disadvantage compared to our dwarf. The same can be experienced when the Magicians ... unless one is himself a, a magician with a conclusion of the depths of the healing spell will be taken way, so you have just one, dominated. The others are still remaining mages can not learn this. The free choice of the group members is thus almost impossible.

- The blood and Metzeleffekte are this time extremely exaggerated. At every opportunity an opponent explodes into a thousand pieces. Since the combat animations from the first part were significantly better.

- Once you have a natural resources found there is unlimited access to this. Talk as long as you have enough money in your pocket, you can or similar with each drink stock up that one wants to have. In the battles proceed possible resource saving has also done so. This is facilitated also by the fact that there is no different strength potions more.
