why does Yas Forums have such a hard-on for this game? everyday I see a thread Yas Forums jerking this off as the greatest wrpg/crpg ever made. which is why i finally decided to play it
the art style is terrible. everything is some shade of grey/brown, character models are laughably bad and their animations worse. I mean, this shit looks way worse than the last remnant, a low-budget jrpg that came out the year before it.
for all the talk about how wrpgs have the best magic systems, the skill trees in this game are really uninspired. It's basically just a party-based mmo.
all the characters so far have been walking tropes. alistair is le quirky joss whedon support character, morrigan is just a conventional tsundere. the plot doesn't even make any sense either. yeah sure, loghain wants to gain political power, but how the fuck is letting demons overrun the country going to achieve that?
and they really couldn't come up with something more interesting than ripping off lord of the rings? there are elves and dwarves, an ancient evil called the darkspawn awakens and threatens to overrun the land. even the darkspawn enemies look like orcs.
If this is supposed to be the pinnacle of wrpgs/crpgs, no wonder the genre has been on life support for so long
