just fell to my knees in my kitchen

don't do this to me

yall don't even know how insane i used to be about him

and logan paul. i cannot stress enough how little i care about him and his box fight or whatever

wicked*

tldr: an enjoyable game, probably more to casual DA fans or new players which was definitely fun, engaging and visually stunning however feels flat and shallow especially compared to the masterpiece that is inquisition. + it could DEFINITELY have been longer and the end fight a little harder

over all, i just expected more. after 10 years. 10 years, and the game felt rushed. our rook is suddenly there, backstory in a short paragraph and are varric's second-in-commend. why not give us a prologue to SHOW how we met varric to give new players an emotional connection to varric

that shallow, us-centric forced inclusivity so EA doesn't offent anyone. there was hardly any gray-ness. mentions of slavery but when we were walking the "slums" of the docks, we hardly saw it. we were the good guys and fought all the bad guys. of course there were quests and parts done well but

+ some very important themes (which were also important in the previous games) were just kind of there but not really implemented like religion or racism. of course they did touch on religion but it felt so shallow and that would have been so much more "controversial" than +

or mentioned in an off-hand comment while walking around without giving the characters enough screentime to actually SHOW how they're bonding. they were forcing this found family on me that didn't feel like it at all but a group of strangers forced to save the world and oh ig some are friends/dating

the negative:

as a dragon age fan that played DAI 10 years ago, i am somewhat disappointed and find a lot of thing executed in a lackluster way.

for one: the relationships. not just our romance, but the friendships + the companions bonds with each other. way too much was established off screen +
