[QUOTE="Argyle King, post: 5501746, member: 58416"] My main complain about DA2 is that I don't feel connected to the characters or the story at all. As others have said, I just don't really have a reason to care about what's going on. Beyond that, for me, the feel of the game is vastly different. It's a nice game, but borrowing it from a friend and spending some time with it made me decide to not buy it. (It's worth noting the fact that that the friend even allowed me to borrow it... he played the first game for nearly a year w/ a multitude of different characters before considering lending it out.) I understand why some of the options were streamlined; however, in many areas, the 'streamlining' ended up being oversimplification in my opinion. Likewise, I understand the reasons for the different art direction, but I don't care for it. Overall, my experience with DA2 has been a let down. That amazes me because I loved the first game. Suffice to say that I feel as though I was kicked in the dice bag after being falsely promised chocolate icecream. [/QUOTE]
