Dragon Age 2

EA forced Bioware to get this game done and ready in under a year and it shows. Constant and overly re-used caves and lands becomes so hard to bare after the 10th time and the lack of story and dialogue is just a let down. The game is a let down if you are expecting something just like Origins or bigger (Which second installments should be) but you can enjoy it. Just dont think of it as the second installment. Think of it as decent side story or filler.

I was chomping at the bit for this game, being a huge fan of Dragon Age Origins, and its fair to say I was expecting another hefty dose of RPG excellence.
From the offset the game positively glistens with potential. Your character is a lowly warrior fleeing the Ferelden blight to an all new land seeking fame, fortune and adventure. The visuals are very fine, the combat is more brutal and fluid, and one again the voice acting is superb.
However as the end draws near, a sense of disappointment becomes hard to ignore. There are dozens upon dozens of quests, though far too many are instantly forgettable, and you find yourself constantly travelling through the same old territories. The finer details of the game have been outrageously simplified and customisation of your team is severely limited. It may be that the first game set the standard impossibly high, but your companion characters definitely seem inferior, and certainly not a patch on Morrigan and Alistair! Finally, the main storyline seems to lack any real substance when compared to saving the world and slaying the Archdemon in Origins.
Despite these moans, it's still a quality title on its own merits. I never lacked motivation to see it through to the end, and for fans it still offers 50+ hours of Dragon Age action. If Bioware can combine the combat and visuals of this game with the epic storyline and unforgettable characters of Dragon Age Origins, then the third game should be incredible.

I played dragon age 1 and enjoyed it alot, I waiting for DA2 to come out and when I played it I thought it was amazing but the level system was very difficult to get the skill you want as the requirements for weapons and armour had to take priority.
The story is excellent but you get kind of sick and tired of the same areas, I felt like there was no freedom of where to go.
A fun game and I would still recommend this to any RPG fan but be warned it can be repetitive

i've completed dragon age 1 a couple of times and from playing the demo there are nice improvements such as you can speak now, and how combat has changed its more actiony. i can see this being really good. so worth the money if you a fan of bioware games like i am.

I think the game is pretty good I like the cut scenes and gameplay and story I prefer oblivion and dragon age origins is more of my game but this game is great in terms of graphics can be a bit irritating how you travel and it tends to repeat a lot some quests suck aswell and wasp spiders are just ridiculous you need a lot of health potions on you for them they wipe your whole party out! but yeah its a cool rpg bit overrated I expected a lot more from it tbh still is worth the buy.
