Good
Larger areas
Decent Story
Varric came back
More stuff to do
Kept previous game mechanic/attack animations
Claim shit and establish bases within the area
Varric is top flight champ of the world and cool person of the game
Get to be the Big Horned Guy from Legend
Even on normal you'll find yourself dying more a tad bit more than usual(least in the beginning)
Get to indirectly affect areas with NPC units on map screen. Sort of like Half-assing creed Injin Edition.
I'm no sheep but this is baaaaaaaaaddddd
Less skills- tries to cover this up with upgraded skill versions
Warriors can't dual wield from the looks of it. It's either 2 Handed or Sword&Sheild
Every bodies voices but the Human MC and Varric is (in a sheeps voice) baaaaaaaaaaaaaadddd
Morrigan isn't in it
Graphics were rushed: more often I found blurry textures even on close ups in cut scenes.
Your AI buddies are slighty more retarded: More often than I liked I found my mage and archer thinking it was proper to attack up close. Your tank is piss poor at it's intended job.
Took a casual route of being able to get free refills of potions
I may have mislooked but I didn't see a actual healing spell on my mage except revive
Level designers were slightly lazy: retarded placement of invisible walls, grass and other shit popping from the floors of houses. That and I saw my fair share of sharp 90 degree angles on object that's suppose to look smooth/jagged.
Equipment that does the same exact thing has different names. Ring of <name 1, 2, 3>: same effect.
Can't remedy the AI's retardedness with custom conditions like in the previous dragon age.
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THIS:
You can't have this in a wholesome christian game
