I preordered DA2 but never finished it. All of these previews are making me very unhopeful and sad.

Nah, just a reused art asset:


And I hope they do a Mass Effect crossover like they did with dead space:

I like how both backgrounds look reused from DA:O and the sword is already a reused asset.

I can dig crazy anime JRPG looking weapons and stuff, butt the nerds behind bioware always just kind of half-rear end it and it ends up looking boring and dumb

and then they're so un-self-aware that they decide its cool enough to use in marketing for their next game

I just hope you can inquire about things,

maybe an NPC that goes 'What is this an inquisition?' right before you commit some act of violence on him

I'd say there's probably gonna be a "nobody expects the ferelden inquisition" joke in there but I doubt the target demographic for Bioware games would get the reference so maybe not

it's like in mass effect when they have ~space magic~ and instead of making it cool and awesome because its bullshit that makes no sense anyway they spend a gazillion codex on it for ~worldbuilding~ nobody gives a poo poo about

except for Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC, that asari spectre did some crazy anime poo poo with it as it should be

there's nothing wrong with having detailed lore and worldbuilding, but Bioware is so bad at incorporating it into gameplay that yeah they're better off just turning it into Dragon Ball Z

bioware writing is pretty schlocky and mediocre but they actually put effort into making their characters which is the cloests video games have come to good tv/book style writing we've got, and i think thats why people like them more than they deserve credit for.

they're doing a better job than 99% of video games also, which helps.
