I mean the game looks alright and some stuff is fun but I can’t be mean to anyone like a renegade option, the stupid politics being shoved down my throat breaks immersion to take a few minutes to address something that has nothing to do with anything, and the awful looking bland characters really makes this disappointing. Loved the previous titles but this in no way feels like Dragon Age. Sacrificing good story telling to play it safe and try to pander to a small small small minority of people is ridiculous. Gaming companies like BioWare, Ubisoft, and EA still have learned nothing from years of lack luster gaming on their part.
The characters are so unlikelable and it’s a huge shame. I really dislike almost all of them and honestly I just want to skip all the cutscenes, which is the main point, so I can get back to the action and even that gets stale after a bit.
Luckily, I gave up and returned this hollow shell of a game. I do not recommend this unless you enjoy empty dialogue, cringy unlikable characters, and identity politics. Makes me truly worried about the next Mass Effect if this is the direction they want to go with.
PS all game review companies who gave this such praise should be investigated. Clearly they were paid to pump positive reviews since the developers knew this would not relate to 90% of their fan base.
