It started off REALLY cool. The gameplay is really cool at first. but after a while, it all kinda became bland, and boring. Honestly, Dragon Age: Origins was FAR better. DA:O was upsetting because it had crazy long load times, but besides that, the game was an absolute blast. Your spells were interactive, for example you could throw a greece spot on the ground, then hit it with a fire ball and you just created a massive wall of flames. DA:2 they completely threw that away. I found no cool tricks, the only problem they fixed was the 5 min load screens, you know how? by loading into a zone only to make you talk to someone for 3 min, then back to another loading screen. there was WAY too much talking, too much traveling not enough going thru deep dungeons killing people. it seemed like everytime i got into a cave filled with bad people, i was out in 5 min and back to the loading screen. honestly id rather have the 5 min load screens and load 1 large area where i can do multiple quests without loading 10 times. i cant believe they say this game is as good as it isnt. SORELY disappointed. the crafting was quite the pain in the backside as well, i didnt know where to look for things, so i lost interest in the crafting. I rated this game a 5 simply because the actual lore is kind of cool, but theres WAYYY too much of it, and not enough killing people! DA:O i was the hero, and saved the world from the blight, fighting off dragons, where now im more like a glorified cop, dealing with peoples issues.
