Good users, I apologize for my foul language. :salute:

WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY DO WITH THE GAME? This looks like some shitty hack&slash remake of a remake.
:mob:

I started playing Eschalon: Book I yesterday and I swear to god it looks better than DA2, nevermind the "3d details" and "immersion" and such dumbfuckery.

:o

Looks like console action game but shitty. Of course ME2 looked like fps but shitty and is considered best game ever so DA2 will do just fine. In few weaks after release we`ll probably have many threads about how shitty and waste of money it is, few more weeks later we`ll have DA2 review here which will give solid 80-90%.

Indeed. I couldn't care less about ME2. You might as well play Gears of War, at least it doesn't pretent to be a RPG.

"Stupid question he loves everything Bioware."

It is very rude to lie, troll.

Racofor needs to make a image where Hawkes have the body of Katros or Dante (the new one mind you).
Something great to post in the Bioware forums.

God, that was terrible. I don't mind making combat play more like an action game, but if developers do go there, they should make sure that it plays like a good action game. This video made Dynasty Warriors look like Ninja Gaiden.

"This is just showing off the new optional style of gameplay for the 360. You can still change it back to what it was in DAO."

Hopefully that is actually the case, but this is still decline. Why not work on making the combat engine in DA:O better instead of creating a half-assed "action" version?

Because Bioware's statistics will show that this optional style is preferred by 98.65% of players. By the time DA3 drops the DA:O style, the remaining 1% of players will embrace the opinion of the horde and the remaining 0.35% of players will move to the North Pole where they will run around naked until freezing to death.

Thanks god I´m not emotionally engaged anymore with Bioware and stopped caring after watching some DA:O ads. Now it´s just pure fun and great entertainment to watch movies and ads about their new "rpg´s" :lol:

This looks like straight from an arcade saloon

Anyway, for a slasher game this one surely has shitty 3d models...
