There is only so much BRIAN damage a person can take playing this series. I would doubt he would be reviewing this.

Your other option will be "hey", which will entail your characters burning down a village and having gay sex on top of a pile of sheep corpses.
Or maybe it will be the other way around, gotta try it once to find out.

Nah, for it being a true, Modern Bioware™ Experience™ there must be also icons on the dialogue wheel (not anyone can read, you ableist shitlords!) , probably a halo for gay sex and horns for straight one, also y'all forgot cutie enrichment, if you free that village from the shackles of oppressive CIS-heteronormative religious government and offer free change gender spell, you won't need to burn it at all, and can have sex with all villagers to boot.
Another 9.0, from Gamespot.
Pros...
-Wonderful cast of interesting and relatable characters
Wonderful is not the first word came to my mind.

This one is in Kraut, but they lament that DA:I lost the "fantasy" aspect of DA:O and that it has become too political. It's also unmissable that Bioware tried to hook onto Ubisoft Montreal's and Bethesda's success, in the process diluting the whole experience. Big world and countless sidequests. Characters no longer feel like family, they're now mere assets. Also, they hate the clean look and unsatisfactory combat.

Considering how all of the above has been ridiculed here before, does this mean they did things to make them to our liking, or that all of the elements are actually complete shit?

Pointing and laughing.

PC Gamer likes it as well. They also claim it's got a 50 something hour main campaign.

Angthoran they say it's a good game overall but it's DA in name only. Feels more like they were chasing after Assassin's Creed and Skyrim sales.

Yeah, this is my point as well here.
Epic butthurt at DA2 having a better score than DA I at the link.
The guy who wrote this apparently adored DA:O, so take it however you want.
No worries though, DA:I will be shit either way.

The game is probably going to be okay.
I wonder how it'll sell.

I bet this will end up reaching close to 10 million overall sales across platforms.

You're really setting yourself up for easy jokes, you know.
That aside, it'll probably do quite well. The reviews and the hype tried to make it pretty clear that it won't be like DA2, but at the same time, it won't be not like DA2 so much that 3 new fans won't want to buy it too.

That Eurogamer review bash it as fuck, yet gives it 8/10?! The text indicated something like 6/10... Also, he criticized particular aspects of the game, but never really elaborated what exactly is the problem - "it's just not tactical on normal difficulty, let's move on!". Hate those kinds of reviews, the german one is much more analytical.

Yeah, I'm trying to read the German one atm (It's going kinda slow since my German is pretty bad), seems a lot better and full of information.
