I am very angry at Dragon Age II.

[Flemeth]Petitions are pretty but useless.[/Flemeth]

However, I fully agree that the portrayal of all sexualities is stupid and partially hurtful in Dragon Age 2.

That forum is full of what have to be some of the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.

The irony here is - he makes a petition to fire someone - and within the SAME title - asks Bioware not to cater to everyone under the sun. Either this dude lives somewhere above the sun - or, he doesn't understand irony at its best.
:lol:

I remember when Gaider was all butthurt that some guy insinuated casual = stupid. Casual may not equal stupid but bioware fan almost certainly does.

Saying DA1 and DA2 are about equal is 'biowhoring for DA2 hard'?

WOW!

Last i checked, saying it's equal to another BIO game is biowhoring?

So.. if I claim JE is better than KOTOR, it's 'biowhoring' or if I claim KOTOR is better than JE it's 'biowhoring'?

DOES. NOT. COMPUTE.

Stop right there criminal scum! Nobody defends DA2 on my watch. Pay the court fine or serve your sentence. Your postcount is now forfeit.

Yep, saying they are equal is whoring for DA2 hard because they are not equal and DA2 is a fucking POS.

You see the difference comes when the games are clearly not equals. I haven't played JE or Kotor so I don't know what the difference is between them. But I have played DA1 and DA2 and they are quite clearly, not even close to being equal. So saying this just clarifies that you are Biowhoring for DA2 because it's their latest "EPIC RPG" and you don't want their feelings to get all hurt by the big bad truth.

Volourn how is enemies spawning out of the fucking sky, out of fucking thin air for fucks sake and landing on my fucking mages that I have at the fucking back for a fucking reason equal to DA1. Seriously. I want an honest fucking answer.

You liked and enjoyed DA2. Fine. But don't say they are about equal. 'Cause they fucking aren't. They are very different games.

DA1<DA2
Just sayin'.

DA1 was a horrible, excruciating experience that will scar me for life (well, until ME3, at least).
DA2 is a silly dumbfuck I can poke with a stick for my amusement and not care about its taste in gay porn. Not so much "so bad, it's good", as much as "You really expect anyone to seriously care about this shit?" Can't play it past Act 1, though - it aready strained my crazy gland.

Feels like I forgot something. Oh, yeah.

I expect every Codexer to do his duty and sign this petition.

I fulfilled my patriotic duty and voted on that petition.

What about you, Codexer below me? Are you a traitor of the cause by any chance?

You're being weirder than usual. You gave DA2 a 5/10 and SOZ a 4/10 which makes it one point less sozzy than soz. Here's another ranking thing you did recently before its sozziness got to you:

"NWN: TP > BG2 > DA2 (so far) > ME1 > JE > DA1 > ME2 > BG1 >HOTU > NWN: OC > SOU > KOTOR


(some ratings cna change day to day on whims) but KOTOR and SOu will always be at the bottom with NWN on top."

Since NWN OC is always a 7.5 that would make DA2 much worse, right?

The only good thing I can point to in DA2 is the facegen, which allows you to create a marginally decent-looking character.

Everything else is shit, with the combat being the most disgusting of all.

Rinse and repeat:

Run backwards

Cast Gravitic Ring into choke point

Wait for mobspam to accumulate and/or cast Pull of the Abyss

Nuke Firestorm x 3

Walking Bomb


For Bosses:

Freeze + Archer's Lance + Walking Bomb

Yhatzee confirmed my suspicions. The best thing about DA 2 is that you can roleplay a flaming fag. Not too original. Ben there done that with Fable.
