I really miss Dragon Age 2.
#I’m not sure I can say it was the best one? technically speaking Origins probably is? but it was the one that I liked the story of most. it
#hit me deepest. that messed me up but I also loved it. and it was much better designed for cause and effect
#dragon age 2
#inquisition is frustrating because half the time - especially w War Room - you pick as well as you can based on all the info you /have/ at
#your disposal and it goes ‘hehe you picked Lelianna’s ‘let’s be cautious and scout first’ ^u^ over Josephine’s ‘let’s ask the nobles if they
#can help intel gather’ and Cullen’s ‘let’s send our soldiers to look around’. 300 people died ^u^’
#so if you want good results you either re-load or use a guide bc there’s little sense to it & you’re constantly punished not for really your
#own choices but just arbitrarily. I used a guide like 3 times the entirety of DA2. I use them constantly for DAI becuase every time I go ‘im
#just gonna play normally : )’ ten minutes later I tell some girl the wardens seem cool & she immediately gets brutally murdered
#also they constantly have NPcs there to tell you something and die seconds later and it’s so annoying??? in every other DA game you can heal
#and save NPCs you find injured but now they go ‘tell my wife…I’m sorry…’ and die and you have a quest to tell their wife ‘sorry I didn’t
#give her one of the 40 health potions I was carrying’ or some idiocy. I have NOT ONCE been able to save by healing an NPC when in every
#other game I had MANY chances. no heal even EXISTS as a spell in DAI when it’s a basic skill in every other game???
#also the quests are structured so badly half the time I walk into a house and kill a monster and Varric goes ‘ah the High Beam Killer dead
#at last’ and I won’t know what the fuck he’s saying At All but some quest marked Spooky Mansion is marked completed and I gain exp without
#ever remotely knowing what the quest was in the first place
#in DA2 when I got punished I deserved it. in Act3 the Mages with Grace suspected me of turning them in bc I tricked the Templars instead of
#killing Thrask and that made sense. I did pick a slightly less safe outcome to protect him. i absolutely never betrayed them but I did take
#a risk that put /them/ at risk and it made sense for her to distrust me. In DAI my friends get killed because I’m Qunari no matter what I do
#at the war table before or after and they just give me pointless missions about it so I have the illusion of choice and consequence
#DAI is obsessed with Only Bad Outcome quests because the Devs are centrists who think there’s no right answer to fucking anything and it
#deeply damages the story structure and the quest load out
#(I don’t hate DAI I’m just venting. I enjoy many many parts of it. but some I want to destroy rabidly with a hammer)
