It's a very well polished turd.

You will see the same dungeon at least 20 times before finishing the game. The paths to each objective will be different, but the map itself is identical. It's sickening. I felt as if I should have only paid 15 dollars for the game. It reminded me of Puzzle Quest. No joke.

But the graphics are great (even without the Hi-res texture upgrade for PC), the sound is intense, the music is produced very nicely. In other words, BioWare really knows how to make a game. It's too bad there was no substance. I know you hear that a lot in negative reviews, but it's true in this game. I saw maybe one tiny glitch throughout the entire game. Like the camera froze for a few seconds. Not even worth remembering. Unfortunately the plot is hard to remember as well. They really should have spent more time writing the story. I wouldn't have minded waiting a few more years for the release. I want a reason why I should go back to that same town besides collecting extra XP. I want something new. I don't like playing fetch. "Go see blah blah about bleh and collect me 3x bloops." "Aight." *10 minutes later* "I got your stuff." "Aight, thanks." *500 XP click map to start another quest* Nah, ya know what? 60 bucks says I get something different. Apparently not.

I believe this game will sell enough copies to make EA proud of BioWare. However, I hope they listen to the criticisms so that the next one will have more... uh.... substance.
