Dragon Age How to Enjoy Dragon Age: Origins

[Volourn]

Like a girl, you got TRIGGERED, and started crying like a little baby. But, that's an insult to little babies and girls. Lol

NWN had deeper character and combat than the BGs.

Choice for fighters in BG: Swing your sword, or ax. Lol

Choice for fighters in NWN: knockdown, called shots, parry, and so on. Lmao

Bg is so much more 'complex'.

Idiot.

I'm a big fan of NWN, especially because of the Swordflight modules. I played a melee sorc through them and documented the harder fights in the later chapters on YouTube.

That being said, a fighter having a few more options doesn't make nwn combat better. The magic system in NWN isn't as complex.

You don't have party members but henchman and the OC and official expansions of NWN are pretty easy.

It's not even fair to compare it to BG in terms of combat even though Swordflight makes the combat difficult and interesting.

A question, sir: In NWN, can you swing your sword or axe? Because fighters in NWN sound pretty shit right now.

Maybe some module made better use of those option, but I don't remember a single time where using one of those combat feat was bringing anything else than larping. You won't beat the DC of high level stuff, and most of those are immune or don't care about thing like knockdown or disarm anyway. The small fry is going to get destroyed due to how 3.5 ruleset work,
I think the only one I used was taut to reduce the AC, parry is borderline useless in solo, and the party member are too retarded to make themselves useful.

When you are a RDD, Knockdown and Improved Knockdown works very well in NWN.

Can confirm. When I played through SoU and HotU last summer as a Paladin, I might have used feats a handful of times before I completely forgot about them in favor of buffing. Just apply haste and maybe bless and stoneskin and essentially you win 99% of fights first try, just with autoing.

I remember playing it around 10 years ago. I liked it overall (the dwarven quest was easily the best) but it absolutely hated all the fade sections. I'm thinking of replaying it very soon. I'd like to see how much my opinion on it has changed since then.

Most people play that section all wrong. It is supposed to be a quick, fun, easy, action packed side quest. But people don't figure out the way it is supposed to be played so it becomes a tedious slog for them.

You have to play the series in reverse to appreciate DAO. It's a flawed game but a masterpiece compared to DA2 and DAI which are complete disasters.

When you consider DAO in the sense of how much worse it could've been instead of how much better it could've been it changes your perspective.

It's not that bad and OP is a faggot.

This lad strikes me as a particularly smart poster.
You guys should listen to him.

Seems legit. After all, you're NotSweeper.

Indeed. I have never met this Sweeper person, nor do I know anything about him, but it seems he is correct on all matters.

Hmm. At the moment, I *could* try DA:O but I have too many projects lined up 1st. And I'd avoid the "cheese" I remember before I stopped playing. Life stuff and other things happened.

 

[BosanskiSeljak]

Make some crazy blood mage build/arcane warrior build, turn difficulty to lowest for all trash fights (turn back up for the good have crafted fights), then just focus on the choices/atmosphere and talk to/bring the characters you like. Will be an enjoyable game that way.

Without metagaming/making the rounds talking to everyone or even purposefully pissing you off will show off the C&C that is in the game, but was made way too easy to do everything "properly".
