It's been a long wait, but man has it been worth it. Great battle mechanics, much to do (with purpose) and guess what? It doesn't fee grindy (say what?). This is because Bioware, does what it does well and offers solid STORIES. Not just a good main story, but hundreds of good side stories (so far). Thank you, Bioware!… Expand

It manages toThis is the game that has drawn me back into the Dragon age universe. In every way this game is what this genre has needed. It manages to combine action, good story telling, interesting characters, and a fairly open and very VAST world into a tapestry of fantasy that is hard to forget.

I am not a huge fan of everything of course, the stiflingly simplistic character progression annoys me... As a rogue archer, being totally limited to my bow seems like an unnecessary restriction.

I understand the design decision, but I don't like it.

Thankfully the game doesn't lose any points for this because it makes up for this annoying restriction with FUN combat, that can get a bit repetitive once you unlock all your abilities, but still leaves plenty of room for both micromanaging a fight or playing it more like an action game and let the AI run the show.

The Graphics on the PS4 are stupendous. Obviously PC users will see some better visuals, but I am 100% satisfied by the PS4 performance.

Some other areas that are annoying is the typical bioware tendency to create SO much conversational dialogue that at times it can be tedious when it is all lumped into a single setting.

For example - When are you just returning to camp to follow a quest chain and discover all the NPC's have new dialogue this can either be really great if you are in the mood for some down time, or REALLY annoying if you originally only meant to stop in to craft a new weapon or something similarly brief.

Like most Bioware games, each new area might have a half hour of dialogue waiting for you if you are OCD like me, and don;t like letting new NPC's go without exploring the whole dialogue tree. This can really bog the game down sometimes.

Conversely, this can be a great thing, because Bioware rarely fails when it comes to writing interesting or engaging dialogue trees or characters.

Still, Like all bioware Games the dialogue is a big deal, it's not smart to skip it or rush, or you will miss key parts of the story, or the characters personality and even decisions that could effect the game later.

Overall however these complaints are little more than little nagging annoyances in an otherwise well executed game.

i do agree with some of the criticism of the game, the combat could be better for people who want a more tactical RPG feel. This is way more Twitchy and FPS, and the tactical turn based element on PS4 is lacking.

However, I didn't select this game for it to be a tactical turn based old school RPG. I buy Bioware games because they tell amazing stories with engrossing characters and build settings that are deep and immersive.

say what you want, but Bioware rarely makes a bad game, and even their bad games are typically better than most other companies good ones.

YES, EA has had some negative influence over them... But they still do best what they have always done best.

Tell stories and craft huge engaging worlds.… Expand

(Which I didn't hate, but it clearly lacks a certain "something") At first, I was a bit overwhelmed by the large areas that your party explores, which was a COMPLETE 180 for the series' dank and cramped environments. Fortunately, once I figured out the layout and navigation, DA:Inquisition became great experience. The story did take a little while to pick up, but gets better over time. Inquisition also adds a few new cool features, like an expanded crafting system and the ability to choose the fate of the people you lead.

Also, the visuals are stunning, many of the areas rival The Witcher 3's scenery.

Overall: A solid RPG and sequel to the series. Bioware did this one right.… Expand

Enormous but bored, it's just ok, some of the secondary missions are laggy and pointless, tech specs are fine
