Dragon Age: A stupid game. Also, a dumb game.

Fifthfiend · 09-10-2010, 02:25 PM

So I am playing this game Dragon Age and the lesbian I'm romancing gets all upset every time I try to loot a corpse or slit an orphan's throat or WHATEVER.

And then this werewolf is like "So I know you've been murdering werewolves all day but how would you like to not do that, and instead, murder all the elves that you were saving from us?" So I go the elves-murdering route and the girl is all "yeah I'm cool with this, ALSO I'm gonna sing this stupid fucking song now".

Fuck this game, this is a stupid game; also, fuck this game.

So you're romancing Leilianna?

There's your problem right there.

I left her at camp while I was romancing her. Hard for her to bitch about your habits when she's not around to see you do horrible things.

For fun, after you harden her, take her along to get the Sacred Ashes.

When you get the option, go along with the dragon worshipers and defile the Ashes. Leliana will get bitchy, but you can tell her to shut the fuck up and she'll take it.

Also, the merchant's endless supply of happy trinkets to give to your pals (It's one of the DLCs, also has the joke gifts) makes it easy for everyone to forget how much of a fucking monster you are.

edit: Send that bitch an Andraste's Grace. Bitches love Andraste's Grace

Or do what I did take all her gear and strip her naked right before, then just kill her off I mean that prestige class is a pain to get, and I already had a rogue

But I like having the entire collection of possible travel buddies at all times even though I'll never use some of them.

Like Wynne.

I'm still trying to figure out how this game is any different from Planescape Torment/Baldur's Gate/Neverwinter Nights once you take away all the high-end visuals. And whatever other high-end stuff they put into these current-gen games nowadays.

Also I hate mandatory minigames that require skill levels of impossible.

It is much worse once you take away the visuals. 90% of the planning goes away when you realize that at the end of every single combat, you go back to full health and mana. The story was pretty uninteresting as well, though I guess it was slightly better than Neverwinter Nights' story.

Great Cartoonist · 09-10-2010, 04:22 PM

The original Neverwinter Nights campaign's storyline was a bucketload of stupid in which all the important plot twists weren't so much twists as they were giant curves with neon signs all over the place and all the good guys except potentially you were giant flaming morons that had flames over their heads in the shape of the word "MORON". However, it is excusable as the main selling point of the game was all the custom content you could make with the help of their included toolset. And also a proper multiplayer. Plus the expansions and custom modules had better storylines (though I might not be so sure about some user-generated modules).

I have yet to try Dragon Age, so I wouldn't know about how it compares to Neverwinter Nights. However, I do know that it does have a huge advantage over the graphics department. But graphics aren't my main focus when it comes to deciding if a game is good or not.

If you do her sidequest, you find out that she was originally a heartless bitch assassin but became a nun so that she could hide from her former employer/lover. After becoming a nun she was kinda like, killing is bad! But then you can convince her to get off on it again. Then have a foursome with her.
