Game News Let's All Play Dragon Age 2

[aries202]

If you a Bioware account, you have an EA account, too. So it is.

Or they could ride in on clouds.

You mean like Monkey on a pink cloud? Now THAT is a series that deserves the RPG treatment!

Just finished the demo. The short version: bad UI, average graphics, linear map, trash mobs appearing from thin air, abismal writing and terrible voice acting from the main character. And when I say abismal writing, I mean that the dialouge is so forced, sometimes when I chose an answer, it doesn't even fit into context.

Why has no one does a LP of this yet? Yeah I know it's that bad, I refuse to d/l this shit. Come on, take one for the team and do a LP of this.

Has anyone been over to the BioHazard forums?

It looks like a middle eastern dictorship falling apart - the mods can't keep up with locking threads down, and the masses are no longer afraid to show dissent. Some are even going so far as to predict the game won't be AWESOME.

Fuck money-spitting books, I won't download unless we get something truly awesome. Like bottled breast milk from Chris Priestly.

I'm sure if you PM him and negotiate terms he'll fedex you a flask.

I just wanted to say I'm not downloading this. In fact, I have two machines and none of them is downloading it right now. That's how edgy I am.

Dear Lord, his eyes!

 

[Crooked Bee]

So many lulz on the 'Dex today. One good thing about the demo.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

Engine looks to be working as intended.

 

[J_C]

I had to laugh so hard on that picture. XD Keep it up guys!

 

[commie]

Must....resist....temptation....to....download....this....to....see....what....the....Codex....is....raving....about....


OOHH, Men of War Assault Squad is out. I'll check that out instead.

 

[Suchy]

WTF is going on at youtube? I went through 8 pages of comments on that gameplay vid and counted maybe 2 positive.
There is no such thing as incline of youtube posters, so it must be BioWare hitting the new low.

 

[Xor]

Edit: Removed a bit of collar I forgot to erase when I was working on this.

 

[Jaesun]

That should be Volos avatar.

OMG this demo was so painful to play...
I can't believe it, they failed in EVERY aspect of the game.
_ Characters are just ... awful.
_ Exterior and sceneries are inexistant. Just a long and empty corridor.
Even the town IS A corridor.
_ Camera is clearly not done for strategic play, but for joypads( I remember the old song about Baldur's Gate successor ).
_ WTF with this succession of useless "fights" ponctuated with pseudo-cinematics.
_ Artistic direction was interesting in the CGI cinematics, but in game, this is just awful, even worse than the lack of artistic direction of DAO.
_ Dialogs : really, really bad, cliche. And WTF with those silences between each phrase. And with the differences between the text answers and the answers themselves?

I played DAO, found it an average/good game. I was expecting a good surprise despite all the marketing approach on DA2.
but that....
Come on guys, cancel your DA2 preorder ( You don't really want Bioware to continue in this direction, do you? ), and preorder The Witcher2, this one will be a real RPG, made by people who like what they do and probably like to play their games.

this thread is more entertaining than anything Biodegradation has done lately.

I don't have anything to cancel.

Did it a long time ago.

I'm also not downloading it either of my two laptops. Go Team Edgy!

 

[a budda]

could this be that "general public" will finally say "NO" to bioware's crap?

i sense a disturbance in the force
