Oh.. great memories!! Thank you!! I love DA:I and I played it many times. Such a great game. I love the ability to upgrade the Keep and watching it's getting better and better looking was very rewarding. That view from the balcony in the bedroom is amazing. I also usually prefer to 100% complete each area before moving on. The Descent was my favorite DLC too.

I’ve finished DA:I at least a dozen times… probably more. One of the best games out there.

DA4 announced for fall 2024, really excited!

Amazing points. Dragon Age Inquisition has been one of my favorite games since 2014 (along with Witcher as soon as it came out the year after). I watched your videos to reminisce on the game since I miss it so much and thought of it a lot on my playthrough in Baldur’s Gate 3 now. I love how you summarized the feel of the game and addressed really valid points without compromising the story for those who would want to experience it. Really great job! :) I am really curious to hear your thoughts about Origins and Dragon Age II! :)

I had a nearly identical experience with this game. All in all, I'd say that there's a lot to love in this game, but the places where it trips up are kind of crucial things that lose players. You never want the player to feel BORED playing your game. The biggest disappointment for me was the absence of the incredible atmosphere of Origins. In DAO, it really felt like Thedas was a living, breathing world with many layers of complexity and history beneath the surface of what your character was doing. DAI's Thedas felt almost juvenile, empty, and milquetoast by comparison.

I had basically the same reaction as you, amplified by my love for Origin. I just couldn't get on with how... arcadey? it felt, and having not long finished DD at the time the combat was a killer (Damn Dragons Dogma, you ruined me). Then I finished college, life got busy and my console died so it just kinda became a forgotten relic on my shelf. I recently finished Dragon Age Origins again after picking up the full collection on Steam and it was somehow better than I remember, I intended to play through the whole series finally, but after finishing Origins I just lost steam thinking about having to play through the next ones and remembering my brief experience with Inquisition. This video has somewhat brought back the urge to play through the rest of the series so I'm glad you went ahead with it. Now I just need to not be spoiled by Dragons Dogma 2, considering the 12 year gap since DD1 I'm baffled my urge to play Inquisition has been reignited once more only to be destroyed for a second time by Capcom. The world works in mysterious ways, or Capcom just doesn't want me playing Inquisition.

ah I'm also playing it now, but I'm still confused bro... how do I increase the storage capacity?

Graphics is still FIRE in 2024 🔥🔥

Never completed it upon rekease. Replaying it now and its aged just fine, hell! Does some things better than modern games, like being able to zoom out and play it like a strategic rpg ala baldurs gate...if you fancy. The writink/dialogue is great too and the graphics are still great.

After you complete the main story line. I heard certain expansions should be played last due to difficulty. So, is there an order in which you should choose to play the DLC's? I am only 20 hours into the game, but I know eventually I will reach this point, any tips?

You brought nice points to the discussions. I'm hoping you make a DD2 video too! Love you vids, keep doing them !!

You played it on pc?

I wish this game had a new game plus and also better pacing. We also need camera angles when talking to NPCs that one really threw me off

So I can switch the companions from the begin to new ones I meet? Can’t wait, just starting, game looks amazing

On Xbox one you could give vocal order to your companion in combat by using kinect

Lived inquisition from the get go was the 1st i played and the only game i have 1k hours in it's crazy

my ex liked this a lot, so ive always been averse to playing. i might give it a shot this summer

I've never really finished it got 95% done twice 🤣🤣 on ps3 and ps4. The credits rolled 2x but that doesn't mean i 100% it.

Is the whole dlc issue still a thing?

Bro i love your videos❤

Good. tell me about it so that I don't have to ever finish it myself. Never mind, I'm bored already. But hey, you can pretend you were saving the galaxy by finishing this game if it helps you cope with the idea that you just get satisfaction from masochism.

thanks, I just bought this for $6 on xbox

I just don’t like the combat for the warriors and Rouge dual wields like why the heck did they change it, da2 combat was amazing on all classes

So to recap Story is meh Combat kinda sucks Tons of fetch quests tons of regions but some are very generic looking (seen in video) Only redeeming thing of this game is some of the DLC. Yeah, I'm gonna take this outta my backlog and put it in the hidden section (I've tried it 2 times as well and couldn't get into it).

Lucky for us epic distributed it for free

Epic.

I'd agree with you on that, great points.

The only thing i hate about DAI some times are the exploration, Its so demn Boring :< Im wishing I could just teleport directly to any main/side quests without running around the maps. But overall its fun and replayable :>

no way this vid only has 139 likes

10 years too late

I couldn't even bring myself to play this a second time. It was so boring, and they cut out all the depth of RPG elements. It's just game designed by committee, with monetization being a focal point

Weird game DAI. I've never played a game I've wanted to love but just didn't. Some of this game is absolutely amazing but also some parts like the writing in parts and game design was just awful. I played through it in full at least two times and I regret that I did. The DLC is definitely very good though and absolutely worth playing through. The main game needs a remake badly. It would be an awesome game if you cut out some of the cancer parts. The companions, the inquisition, the Templars, and the Quanari were all good to great. Seemed like willful incompetency in how badly the grey wardens, olesians, "rebel" mages, dark spawn, venatori, and main-ish villain were written. Honestly, I don't really care about playing another DA game because Thedas is too derpy after the bad DAI writing. I'd rather play good DA and replay the first two games. It's a cool world Bioware created so I'll still watch the in-game cut scenes on youtube after the 4th game releases.

I bought the Mass Effect collection and after ten hours or so I had to stop playing because of a gamebreaking bug, I bought Battlefront 2 and somehow cannot find matches and now I bought Inquisition that is visually already not pretty and characters started flying after three hours..... Still I will try to win the fight against EA and finish this one.
