I absolutely adore DA2. It's my favorite DA game, in fact, and I replay it much more often than the others. I don't care that it reuses assets and that dungeon maps repeat. These things caused by the short development time are more than counterbalanced by the work of love that was poured into Hawke and his companions. Hawke, Fenris, Anders, Varric, Carver... they are unforgettable for me. It just feels so good to go on an adventure in their company.
The story of DA2 feels more personal than Origins or Inquisition. Hawke doesn't have an ambition to save the world, but is doing (at least mine does) his best to protect his family, friends, and allies. The depiction of the sibling bond between male Hawke and Carver is particularly touching. Even as a pro-mage Hawke, I always go the friendship route with Carver, and Bioware has done a wonderful job in portraying two brothers who despite their differences love each other deeply and come to each other's aid whenever needed.
Voice acting is great and the dialogues are amazing. The game is very much worth playing even for the party banter alone. I know it nearly by heart by now, but it doesn't matter. I still love it. Like a favorite comfort food :)
Hey! First off, thank you so much for your comment, it was a real pleasure to read :) I totally agree with you, it’s such a human game in every way, and that’s what makes it special. Thanks!
Dragon Age 2 introduced me to the series, so even though Origins is the best, 2 still has a special place in my heart.
They had a YEAR to make this. It is the best possible game that could have been made in that timeframe. Some of the rogue builds and ability cross-combos were insane. Best companions, though Inquisition comes close. I've replayed it multiple times. Nightmare mode is a true challenge and also an ultra-violence filter.
Yeah, some warrior builds could dish out crazy amounts of damage too! Thanks for your comment :)
I dont care if they had a year, 4 days or 4 years to make it. The output is rubbish and it's the worst game in the series !
I hated the game play in DA2 but the characters are so good i played 5 times through dispite not liking the gameplay.
Good point about Hawke. I think my playthrough of DA2 was marred by my expectations of it after DAO - but if i had expected a story about Hawke and not about me - i would have better experience. And i miss tactical battle camera very much (((
Great video, though!
Thanks for your comment! And yeah, I miss the tactical camera too :(
Are you going to go over Inquisition and Veilguard next?
That’s the plan! If all goes well, I’ll drop the Inquisition video next week :)
The combat is better than Inquistion.
There I said something positive about Dragon Age 2.
Now lets talk about the negatives.
*Three hours later.*
... so overall we have 3 messy mini games combined into 1 full game. Dragon Age 2 a game unworthy of the name. But Fennris is cool so may be worth a buy. = )
hahaha long live King Fenris
Thanks for your comment :)
DA 2 was my first Bioware game. And I fell in love with it. I am unaware of any other game period that adjusts NPC dialog to match the personality you've been playing. Add in the amazing sound track and I feel it was an incredibly immersive game. Sure the combat was meh and they constantly reused maps and assets. But those don't overshadow the good parts.
Totally agree! Thanks for your comment :)
i dont have high hopes for veilguard, but this did make me wanna play inquisition again ^^
mostly to try and understand what the heck is going on :P
Glad to hear it :) I’m playing it too. Thanks for your comment!
ahah yes is difficult . i remeber i run away beacause the qunari boss is very dangerous 🤣
Yeah, I used that same legendary strategy so many times hahha Thanks for your comment!
For a singular playthrough (as I experience games tbh) it's a worthwhile game. I just hate, absolutely loathe both the little item dlcs, that was also a problem in origins to be fair, and the Mark of the Assassin DLC because of Felicia Day's potrayal of an honestly promising character. A human who follows the Qun. Too bad she is too quirky and snarky to follow it and learns basically nothing... Great video though :)
Yeah, I've always hated those item DLCs... at least now you can get the game with everything included at a very low price, it's almost always on sale. Thanks a lot for your comment :)
Played it like five times, I am skipping it from now on.
Well, I think playing it five times is more than enough hahhaha thanks for your comment :)
@@RokkoFonso I do enjoy it, but when I can replay origins for the 89th time, I prefer it. Even if the companions interactions are better in DA2. And no one on origins or inquisition keeps reminding he was a slave all the damn game.
@@adnanrivera7795 Yeah, that’s a totally valid opinion :) I can’t argue with anyone who’d rather replay DAO over anything else, since I’ve been that person plenty of times hahahha For me, DAO and DAI are better standalone experiences than DA2, but I just wanted to show some love for DA2 because I’ve grown attached to it over the years haha even if it’s not my favorite
ENCHOINTMENT
INQUISITION SUCKS!!
There I said it xD
I disagree, I think DA2 is right after Origins for peak Dragon Age, and DAI did not deserve its game of the year... BUT THEN AGAIN. I loved the small story we get with DAI... So if somehow they can come in and cut out boring shit from DAI... and stop making me fight mobs over and over blehhhh... then DAI may equal out with DA2.
i'm nervous as shit for DAV though... I don't want it to fail, but...... the only choices that matter are the 3 you make in Trespasser? mannnnnn... That's gonna invalidate a fuck ton of choices... especially Morrigan choices.... mehhhhhhhhhh
Thanks for your comment! That’s a totally valid opinion too :) I’m working on a video about DAI right now, and while I do think it’s a great game, I completely agree with you about the endless mob fights, they’re really tedious. And yeah! I’m 50% excited and 50% worried about DAV... with its messy development and everything you mentioned. We’ll just have to wait and see. Hopefully, they surprise us and it doesn’t end up like Andromeda hahahha
Nah Origins is the only Dragon Age worth playing.
That's a valid perspective too :) The idea is to do what we enjoy with our free time. Thanks for commenting!
