Dragon Age ™: Inquisition

BioWare is a valuable company to me, they making awesome story-based games, this is what BioWare good at. DA Inquisition is a good game with deep storyline as well as co-op multiplayer. Just like in Mass Effect 3's multiplayer, though its not alive anymore as far as I know. I'm not going to type a long review, because there's many things can be said about BioWare and their games, and 95% them is positive things in my opinion. Since EA owns them they keep getting their hands bound by a terrible publisher, but who I'm to judge? This is how this industry works nowadays, a awesome game requires resources so the EA giving them financial support and BioWare creates amazing games. Both sides benefits I guess. To me, this is better than DA Origins. DA Origins is good in story, DA 2 is good in combat and DA Inquisition is good in everything. Buy it if you interested in good story telling.

I love this game. The story was beautiful, exciting, sexy, emotional. So many emotions will be experienced while playing the story and you will enjoy every minute of it. This game is meant to be played at a calm pace and enjoy every detail in the story and open world as you will encounter many cool creatures, characters and landmarks that are jaw dropping. I am also a huge fan of the multiplayer! The multiplayer is something new that I have never experienced in any game and found it to be very fun with random players and friends. it can be a casual or challenging experience as they have different difficulty levels. I highly recommend this game if you are into medieval ages with a twist of fantasy. The story is very linear and you have one goal, you complete it but cannot choose to be good or evil. Although in the story you can choose which "faction" to side with and impact the game by NPCs recognizing your actions in game for that role play experience. Great game! summary: -Pros: Great story, interesting characters, memorable characters, interactive dialogue, actions in the game are recognized by NPCs for role playing, interesting mechanic for crafting and fighting ( although debatable, some people may find the crafting and combat boring or tedious ), and Multiplayer that is very fun and addicting when playing with a team communicating. -Cons: in game currency has little to no value at a certain point in the game, story is linear so you cannot choose to be a villain, no healing, limited amount of health potions you can carry with you.

Dragon Age Inquisition is a third person action RPG and the third game in the Dragon Age series. The game has some great characters, the world is expanded well with lore entries and war room stories, a lot of great dialogue between characters, the crafting system allows you to create some cool looking and useful equipment. Characters have unique dialogue depending on who was taken with you on main story missions. War room missions is a good addition with different paths and mission unlocks. On the negative side, the actual gameplay is really boring and tedious. AI is poor and life barriers, shield blocks, and massive life bars make fights take too long. Collecting material for crafting is tedious. Terrible design choices made to waste your time such as having to wait hours of real time for war room missions to end, collecting materials, traveling back and forth between areas, managing your storage and inventory, traveling through large and dull environments with nothing to run into except for enemies blocking your paths to quests. Poor cutscene animation. Poor main story that is not effected at all by war room missions, decisions made in past missions, or by companion quests. Terrible main villain and climax. It's interesting playing this alongside Pillars of Eternity where Pillars seems like it was made by people who play their own games and respect their players time, while Dragon Age took the more common AAA approach where it seems like they cared more about bragging about how long it takes to finish their game. Or playing this along with The Witcher 3 which managed to make so many interesting and unique quests in its large world, where most of Inquisitions are just busy work outside of companion quests and one well done main plot mission. It's worth playing if you are more interested in characters and world lore, the actual plot of the game is poor and the gameplay becomes dull quickly.

DAI is a very fun game. The massive and beautiful worlds are breathtaking. The flexibility in combat and strategy is intriguing. The story and the player's rise to power are high points and definitely worth experiencing. However, it's not a perfect game. DAI relies a little too heavily on DAO and DAII for validation from its longtime fans. The main story is incredibly short while most of the open world is largely empty and lacks purpose for exploration. Dragon fights are cookie cutter and are pointless to do, however they do drop great loot. Irrespective of its shortcomings, BioWare has had a respectable move into the open world space and I look forward to future games. I'd also recommend the various story DLCs that were created post-Inquisition (specifically Trespasser) as they finish the Inquisitor's story. Good game BioWare. I'm looking forward to Mass Effect Andromeda.

After the generic original and truly awful sequel, I didn't expect much from this game and waited for it to drop in price by a lot before I bought it. This third game however, is the best in the franchise and is everything that the first two games should have been. There is a ton of content in this game. It definitely rivals the Elder Scrolls series in that respect. The story is good and the gameplay is very deep and engaging. The battle system is fun, so you will enjoy fighting and grinding. The game world is massive and takes a ridiculous amount of time to explore. There's a lot o choices you can make throughout the game that can slightly alter the story and your relationships with your characters. The graphics are also really good and really make the outdoor fantasy environments feel alive. I didn't buy any of the DLC so I don't know if it's good or not, but DLC in general is usually an afterthought and nowhere near the quality of the actual product, so it's probably safe to ignore it. The main game will last you anywhere from 50-100 hours depending on how much side content you do, so you will get plenty of value anyway. Like all RPG's, the replay value is only there if you enjoy the game a lot, but in this game's case, you might want to make numerous save files to see how the story could have changed if you made alternate decisions, or just do a speed run of the main story for a second play through making the opposite choices if you're curious.
