From what I hear they're taking Dragon Age more into the direction of Mass Effect. Variant Send a noteboard - 08/07/2010 09:50:56 PM
Cutting down on the RPG elements to appeal to a wider market. If this is so I'll admit to being very disappointed with Dragon Age's new approach, since it seems to sacrifice both the continuity and the identity of the original game.

While I enjoy the Mass Effect games, I thought the whole point of Dragon Age series was to to build a spiritual successor to RPG style of the Baldur's Gate series. Still a long way from March 2011 though, and I'm happy to reserve judgment until I've seen the game.

I nabbed it during the Steam Holiday Sale, but still haven't... I don't know which is worse. *NM* Zalis - 08/07/2010 05:16:35 PM 345 Views

I hope it DOES look different from the first. I loved the game, but it WAS fairly ugly. lord-of-shadow - 08/07/2010 05:31:03 PM 716 Views

Agreed; it reminded me a lot of WoW, actually. Aemon - 08/07/2010 06:28:36 PM 655 Views
Were you playing the console version? Variant - 08/07/2010 09:37:58 PM 642 Views
No, PC version. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 08/07/2010 10:06:16 PM 314 Views
that'd be SWEET-ass *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/07/2010 02:10:18 AM 312 Views
So... do you continue with the Gray Warden character, or not? Dannymac - 08/07/2010 05:32:46 PM 643 Views
New character. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 08/07/2010 05:33:11 PM 659 Views
I think that story's been told. New Character *NM* AliasRY - 08/07/2010 05:40:32 PM 295 Views
I really hope they dump the MMORPGish "class specific role" crap RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/07/2010 08:25:05 PM 994 Views
That was sort of the point... Dannymac - 08/07/2010 09:07:08 PM 671 Views
I agree. LadyLorraine - 09/07/2010 02:13:46 AM 675 Views
I think they could - mainly because 'Fallout 2' did it so brilliantly. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/07/2010 01:28:50 PM 1014 Views
