Nope that isn't a typo. It's real.

Please don't fuck up like you did with 2 please.

If I enjoy Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls and Fallout, should I still give this series a try? (yes I know ES4 and FO3 weren't by Bioware, it's just a reference to other RPG's because I don't play them often.)

I kinda want to but I'm unsure. The only exposure I had to this series was the DA2 demo and I did like that. Somewhat...

Will I like the second one if I never played the first?

The first one is a very old school RPG in the style of Baldur's Gate and KOTOR. It has a lot of brutal difficulty spikes, which if you are unprepared for it will put a tax on your enjoyment.

It's a pretty basic RPG story: old evil has return and you the last of a sacred order of guardians against said evil must fight it with your band of misfits.

DAII is loosely linked to the first, and the first one is not needed to play it. It's a lot more console friendly and a lot more simplified, with most the inventory system and skill trees cut and streamlined.

My main gripes was that it felt rushed as it recycles the same areas and a the same dungeon map that is only slightly chnaged by closing off areas and opening up new areas (And bare in mind, this isn't the same cave, it's virtually every cave in the game.) and the horrendus way that game ends.

it's just a bit annoying, mostly because we're so used to games being huge.

Oh Lord, another one.

If they speed up the rate at which they are coming out with new DA's the series might become the CoD of RPG's

Anyways, the first one was fun untill you hit those annoying difficulty spikes, which basically ruined the first one for me. If I'm playing the game at a difficulty where I'm challenged, I dont want to run into certain spots where it could take hours to get past something that should take five minutes to get through.

I never picked up the second one because I heard it wasn't great from some people I know(one of them being a pretty hardcore RPG player), but I think that Bioware is a good enough Dev to realize what they have done wrong and improve on it.

Most of the people who don't like the game are mainly butthurt that Bioware made it more console friendly. The only real problems with the game imo are Kirkwall at night and the constant recycling of the same areas. I swear to god, there are only 4 real areas in the game. I think that Bioware will improve upon their mistakes from DA2 and make this is a game everyone can appreciate.

Didn't the first Dragon Age just come out like 2 years ago?
