    What a frustrating game, every battle is just a thorn not a joy. You cannot get away from a frustrating situation and come back to it, you have to reload and reload and reload....in this game, combat gets in the way of gameplay making it frustrating and meaningless. Thanks for Skyrim and Oblilvion!

    I am so enthralled with this title. Most likely my favourite RPG by far.

    In years to come we'll all come together and celebrate this as one of the all time classics.

    @KingdomForce982 well if you used your map and journal and compass that ointed exactly where you needed to go in oblivion, then yo shold have figured out where to go. And no Dragon Age isn't an open world rpg, you its easy to figure ut where you need to go.

    @bosanceanu yes, but is it like Oblivion where you don't know where you need to go next, or rather, how TO GET THERE??

    I haven't played this game and don't know much about it but I love the Mass Effect games. If I like those games would I like this or is there no way to compare the games.

    okay someone really need to explain this to me. i love rpgs okay. when i brought this i just finished playing demon souls (well over 20 times) and then gave this a go beucase ive seen to much good reviews. can someone explain whats with the combat? and why can you not control the combat. all you do it press a button and the bloke just stand there and swings untill it dies...??? its like a bigger version of a rpg on the iphone. press a butoon swing swing swing die press a button swing swing swing die.. i really rited to get into it but the combat sucks

    I'll have to go back and play this one again to see if my views of it change, but last time I played it I remember the story being somewhat boring, and the bosses just feeling like regular monsters with slightly more health.

    I feel with the more dynamic bosses in DA2 I'm used to I'm going to have a hard time getting back into this one, though.
