    I’m a huge dragon age fan but I agree this game is not like the others. The gameplay is very dragon age 2 like but its not fluid and feels choppy sometimes.

    I’m playing a rogue and when I just want to hit a wooden crate my character jumps up and down and almost falls over edges… The tactical part of fighting in this game is not there, inquisition had it perfectly. I could pause the game, fill up potions, play as my other companions if I died. You can’t do any of that.

    The dialogue seems very AI like, short conversations and the start of the game is very rough, cant tell if the tone is suppose to be serious or not. Bellara seems to be a quirky funny not so serious character but I can’t tell if I’m suppose to be serious or laugh, when the world is falling apart and she is making weird jokes and doesn’t seem serious at all.

    The writing is bad, combat seems choppy and its more of a hack and slash game rather than having to be mindful of your company ions health, gear and abilities.

    There is no crafting at all in the game, there are a set number of weapons that you just keep upgrading by getting points for completing quests… Its just not that fun, I loved going through quests and wondering what weapon I’ll pick up or what schematic I’ll pick up. Maybe I’m just an old fart but this game has not been what I hoped for.

    I’m hugely disappointed in this game and it really leaves a big sour in my mouth after waiting since 2014 for this game…
