Pros
- Mods are super easy to install and get working in-game immediately, and the modding community is pretty strong! :D
- This game has crazy amounts of content and nifty, thorough dialogue.
- The romance aspect. Oh my goodness, yes. I hope it will be like this or even better in Dragon Age: Inquisition.
- Yesss, a shared inventory! I hate having to swap items between characters.
- There's friggen blood all over me when I kill stuff ohmahgerrrd!
- I like how the codexes slowly reveal information about the characters to you as you give them suitable gifts!
- Really interesting dialogue; I love it! :D
- The griffon dialogue with Wynne is absolutely priceless.
- Alistair and Wynne in general are priceless, especially their banter with one another.
- "I hope you like heroes, because your husband died as one." WHAT. Oh, Maker's breath, I can't even.
- The voice acting is incredible. I can't believe every single line is voiced. I kind of like how Neverwinter Nights 2 did it, but this is definitely nice as well. It must've taken a lot of time and effort to get all those combinations of lines in the game!
- You can stretch the hotbar at the bottom to fit more spells and abilities on it.
Neutral
- The controls are a bit odd to get used to, but I suppose that's because the last game I played like this was Neverwinter Nights 2.
- The Codex system is a little confusing, but yay collectibles!
- The sloth demon...sounds like Sean Connery? xDD
Cons
- Your character holds her/his/itself very awkwardly, but this isn't too much of an issue. It just looks a little silly.
- I wish you could queue up more than one spell/technique at a time!
- I want to be able to zoom in like in Neverwinter Nights 2. When you zoom in in DA, you zoom in on the character you currently have selected instead of having free reign of where you look. I feel the latter way adds a lot more immersion to the game as you can look around your characters or out of their eyes as you see fit instead of being fixed on one character at a time.
- I really do like the idea of a party inventory, but man, you can hardly hold anything. Just 70 items at the start of the game, really? As soon as you have 4 party members, this is just silly.
- Not a big fan of how every spell seems to have friendly fire!
- I'd like the option to remove the shine on the characters, but oh well.
- It'd be nice to have a stash to place not-currently-being-used items in. I had to use a mod for this.
- It sometimes takes over 10 seconds for corpses to be lootable, which can be kind of annoying.
- I'd like the game to tell me which items I just received from people instead of just saying "Items received".
- The exit points of each area are not very well-defined; you just have to wiggle your cursor over the area you know is the exit until the icon showing you that you've found it turns up.
