Discuss Dragon Age 2

This game is very good, and i want to start by telling Origins players that you can't judge the game from the first look.
You'll likely think, "What have they done? I don't like this"

But that's just the first look.
You were expecting Origins and you got Dragon Age 2.

Later, the changes will feel natural, and you will prefer it, and you won't be able to play without those changes, such as faster combat, jump to action combat, etc.
The voice over simply feels great. You feel like you are the protagonist.


The game has its flaws though. They dumbed it down a little for console kiddies, that's true. For instance, the injuries now only reduce health, instead of reducing constitution, or magic, etc. You can't customize your companions armors, only for Hawke. And it kind of lost that customization feel of the character.

Like Origins, many scenarios are overused, and i personally think they did it more with Dragon Age 2. The caves are like ALL THE SAME! You enter it, and you think it's a different cave but after a while you notice they used the same cave.


The game is awesome. I'd give it a 9.5.

hi there. i have problem about slowdown and graphic issues. Although i have enough system requirements i can't play Da2 normally. i can play Assassin's Creed 2 or Crysis etc in Very High mode but in Da2 i even get graphical errors and i can'take Print Screen while i am in game. i installed the High Texture pack and my graphic card supports Dx 11. Do you have any idea about these issues_?. i uploaded my system, and thanks for your help : )

Install the lastest beta drivers, it improves compatibility with Dragon Age 2

"They made me get rid of my cat! Poor Ser Pounce-a-lot, he hated the Deep Roads." Probably the best Anders line in the game.

As far as reappearing characters from DA:O, Isabella was the only PLEASANT surprise.
Yes, Isabella appeared in DA:O; if you can remember, she was the one who teaches the Duelist specialization to rogues :)

Hm, I actually never met her in Dragon Age 2, must've missed her somehow. I was quite satisfied with Merrill.

I wish it was more straightforward in where you stand with your relationships/romances. Like I want something to show me that yes the romance is still good without waiting for the cutscenes. My war was romancing fenris and we decided to be together but for some reason merril tried to sleep with me. I turned her down but now im wondering if I messed up the fenris rellationship somewhere and need to reload and fix it.
