Lets just say it meet my expectations, in other words it sucked. Sorry to any who like the game, but it had the same faults I hated about the first game.

1st- it is a boring button mashing paradise, I even stopped fighing at one point and my crew beat the enemies on their own.

2nd- Thegraphics are still abysmal for a game on the HD bad boys. This would not matter to me though if the gameplay was actually fun.

PC version didn't have that issue. And you can always put difficulty a bit higher.

I know this and would probably enjoy the pc versions battle stlye better. When I buy my next PC I'll have to upgrade , but than I will hardly have use for my 360.

I agree it is a bit more button mashing in the demo because you don't have all of your skills and traps yet to use, so you are more dependent on basic attacks. Just wait for the actual game to come out to open up all of the good skills and spells to use.

I have to say that the graphics have definitely improved for the PS3 version.

So you think if I actually stuck with EVEN the lst Dragon age for mor than six hours it gets better on the HD consoles as the game progresses. I ask this because I love the story of bioware games, but if the gameplay is not there than it is hardly a game. So basically how long did it take before the battle system got complex enough to involve strategy and not just button mashing?

did you turn on auto attack?? if not then it is a buton masher. if you did then its the same thing as origins.

Being in 3rd place never felt so good

Well with the more skills added, and the deeper you get into the game, the strategy increases. You unock tactics slots to set the character's attack styles like.. "If X enemy's health is less than half, use X skill." You can get pretty precise in how you coordinate attacks in that system. Once you advance more into the game you unlock skill and spell traps which also adds to the strategic side of battling.

I think the demo was a very poor showing of the game, it was way too short.

Your making me think I did not give Dragon Age enough of a chance I think I will be borrowing it from one of my step brothers. Thanks.

Ok i've finally played the demo and i although it wasnt as good as i was hoping i'm still going to buy it.
I couldnt help feel the combat to repetative towards the end of the demo, i was playing as a male rogue and tapping X constantly and the combat started to feel slightly boring, and theres no real feel of contact with your sword swipes. Unlike a game like demon souls, when your swing your blade and contact you feel the blow and you feel like you've hit your target, your swords stops in its motion as it hits the target and the target jolts back or falls to the floor. In this your just swinging like mad, blood is going everywhere but it doesnt feel like your actually hitting the target. Also if you adjust your camera angle it doesnt even look like your swipes are even reaching your target although there life still reduces and blood shoots everywhere.

The voice acting is ok and the European and various English accents suit the setting well.

I am looking forward to buying the game and playing it and im hoping the story and setting of the game will be enough to keep me engrossed like Dragon Age:origins did. i might even start to like the combat but im just comparing it to a game where the combat is almost done to perfection.

Glad to be of service, it also helps to play on a higher difficulty to force you to be more strategic instead of just running aound killing things with ease.

thanks bioware for ruin one of the best franchises for me this generation, dragon age origins was one of my favourite games and they fuck it .

Now is a hack and slash , and a bad one . the changes they made are all for worst ...

I am sad ...

Nah, play the PC version its not hack and slash (i've not played the console ones)

It's worse than hacknslash. Like someone said earlier in the thread, the battles play by themselves. I stopped moving my guy and the party pretty much win the battle by themself.

And the combat is far too fast paced.

OT: Demo was better than I anticipated and longer too! What's up with Flemeth though?

What do u mean exactly?

Flemeth was the best part in the demo by far. Don't you agree?

She made me intrigued and made me still anticipate and feel firm to play this game through.
