Do quest=return to npc do quest=return to npc walk down a street turns out to be same street for the next 20 hours, god dragon age was major failure. it goes to show people who have ideas that turn out to be like this are killing the gaming industry. because this could have been a really god game if only the right person was there.

Dragon age 2 was the most pathetic attempt at cashing a game success (dragon age 1)

Not really. DA2 was still a good game, just alot worse than the first. I remember Unreal 2 being more disapointing. Not only was it a sequel to the legendary Unreal but all it was was a showcase for the new engine.

I think DAO was better but it is getting ridiculous the hate for DA2 is now. The thread is a prime example by calling it the worst sequel ever. The hate is so overblown now. While DAO may be better but DA2 is still a good game. I am sure many that act like DA2 is the worst thing ever have not even played the game.

I just wish Bioware would stop calling them RPG's... and instead call their games action games.

Because of them we'll soon have halo games in the running for "best RPG" of the year.

Who cares?

It's not like DA:O was some Masterpiece either.

If you have a Good PC,how about picking up the Witcher 2 instead of making a dumb thread about DA2?

Kandlegoat

LOLUMAD?

Actually, a lot of people feel that Dragon Age: Origins was a masterpiece and the sequel we got was anything but. If this thread bothers you so much that you had to edit your post twice just to articulate how much you hate it, then you need some serious psychiatric adjustment.

I have to agree that game is up there. RE is now a game that is not even a horror game anymore so all that is left is a really bad shooter. As the years went by they took away the horror part but did not improve the shooting aspect.

As a sequel it was considerably underwhelming in a variety of ways, but I did enjoy it for what it was. There are things it just does poorly, and it's very evident the game was rushed, to the extent where assets are overused and damage the narrative, and narrative aspects aren't fleshed out, and the games lack of care and content compared to the first - which was evidently more dense for a game with so much devtime.

DA2 compared to 1 is overall just bad, but its more or less the same honestly.

My vote goes to starcraft 2. SC2 recieved critcal acclaim and generally a good reception from the public, but ultimately it doesn't have the same qualities as the first game. Absolutely ZERO innovation in any manner for an RTS. Glorified SC1 mod with better graphics(lol), pathing and adjustments in unit stats.

After playing CoH, it really put my perception at a jaded spin when looking at Blizzard. So honestly, after waiting 10+ years SC2 is genuinely one of the worst sequals in comparison to the original.

Next in line. Duke Nukem Forever.

It was very dumb down compared to the first game. The first one felt like a genuine baldurs gate knock off done right and modern. Dragon Age 2 felt more like a cash in for the casual crowd. While Dragon Age 2 still were a good and polished game it still felt lacking in everything.

I mean even if there was a DMC2, it would be a rush job made by a different team. Dragon Age 2 was by the same company and people as Dragon Age 1, much more disappointing.

Thankfully, we don't have to live in such a world, because there is no Devil May Cry 2. Dragon Age II, on the other hand, is quite real, and quite disappointing.

Your poll sucks TC. Yes, DA2 is disappointing, but Devil May Cry 2 was a worse sequel imo.

EDIT: Socom Confrontation was bad too. I don't care who made it, it was a sequel, and it damn near killed the franchise. Thankfully the updates fixed the game somewhat...

I totally disagree with this statement. I loved dragon age II. I dont know why people are hating on it so much. Yea, it had a lot of the same scenery and artsy stuff but who the hell cares, it was still a kick ass game to play!

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, I like Final Fantasy 13 (my top 5 favorite games from last year), but I thought Dragon Age 2 was pretty boring. I guess people are different.

Dragon Age 2 is probably my most disappointing sequel this gen. But Deus Ex: Invisible War still takes most disappointing sequel of all time for me. I still don't know how Ion Storm managed to miss what everyone loved about the first game by that large a margin.

You should try Far Cry 2, Devil May Cry 2, and perhaps FEAR 2. Ok, FEAR 2 wasn't in the league of the other 2, but it was still a huge let down :(

I bought it day one, played for 5 hours and only like 2 weeks ago took the time to finish it. Atrocious graphics and teh ultimate repetition would be the words to describe DA2. In 12 years of gaming i haven't played a single game that was half as repetitive. Still can't believe i spent over 100 hours on this thing...

OB-47

At first when it came out and saw a friend playing the first thing that came to my mind is *lol another joke game that won billion awards for some unknown reasons (like MGS4 and GTA4)* but when i bought it (was 10$ at gamestop) and get passed its ugly graphics, the game is really nice and long. At the end, i enjoyed a game i wasn't even supposed to bother trying.

Dragon Age had a really phenominal class system, but the story was pretty meh. I bought the Ultimate Edition and thought it was worth the money, but I do think its fans put the game on to high a pedastal.


DA2 was okay. Not nearly as bad as its haters were making it out to be but not as good as the first game.

Seriously, Dragon Age II is one of the WORST RPG ever made, it even worse than FF XIII

Many of you said FF XIII is trash, because of the linearity and un-likeable character such as Snow, Hope, and Sarah, but hey at least it has variety in levels and dungeons, unlike Dragon Age II

From when you start the game until you finished the game you only meet one town. ONE TOWN? ONLY KIRKWALL? Not to mention that the town is bland...

And not to mention the repetition of levels and dungeons...man, all dungeon in Dragon Age II is all similar! It just another copy-paste bla bla bla

This is definitely weird, because in Dragon Age I, you met many towns! So why the hell the sequel only got one?

And then the characters, while Dragon Age I contains many likeable characters such as Morrigan, Leliana, Alistair, Stein, the Dragon Age II have none

If Mass Effect 2 had Miranda, Dragon Age I had Morrigan/Leliana, in Dragon Age II there's no interesting woman character you want to have flirt with

And the weakest part in Dragon Age II is story, it's strange because Dragon Age I had a very memorable story. Dragon Age II just talk about templar-mage bla bla bla, who cares with templar and mage, there's darkspawn out there waiting to be killed!

And not to mention the ending....really....even FF XIII had a decent ending! Dragon Age II simply suck....

Just when I thought WRPG is better than JRPG, when I looked at Dragon Age II, I simply can't admit that, Dragon Age II is one of the worst RPG ever made, rare because for me, Dragon Age is one of the RPG I ever played...What about you? Do you think Dragon Age II is the most disappointing sequel ever, or do you think it's like Uncharted 2?

Your options on the poll suck. It's not the best sequel, nor it's not the worst one.

I thought certain aspects were better, such as the combat, although overall DA:O is a better game. If you use the mods which allows you to equip party members with armor etc. you can make it more like an RPG.

I didn't read the OP but the most disappointing sequel ever is most definitely by far hands down no contest"assassin's" creed brotherhood. ACI & II is really good games, "A"CB is one of the worst games this gen.

charlesdarwin55

You havn't played many games this Generation then. Honestly, to say AC:B is the worst game this gen is just facepalming. Have you played The Conduit? Naruto Dragon Blade Chronicles? Need for Speed Nitro?
