Topic	Man Dragon Age 3 is way buggier than I remember.
Maze_ 06/25/19 9:03:11 PM #27:	ProbablyaCat posted... I love Dragon Age: Origins, and it has great combat on PC. After I finish one or two more playthroughs on nightmare, will I enjoy Inquisition? I tried 2, but it felt like such a massive downgrade in every way. How's the combat in 3? And is the writing closer to 2 or Origins? I can only give you my opinion and opinion is split on 3. The only consensus is that I think it is safe to say the vast majority agree that 2 is the weakest. IMO 3 is great. The writing is "closer" to Origins. However that's a more complicated question because the gameplay is different. Origins and two are pretty linear. The areas might be quite large but the are ultimately just large corridors. 3 is closer to open world. There's about 10 or so different "areas" which are all huge and you run around them jumping around like a sandbox game. This has it's advantages and disadvantages. You have a lot more freedom and there are a TON of side-quests. However this sidequests and combat feel like an MMO. Lots of "Kill the enemies here, collect these for me, travel back and forth across the map, gather 10 Ore samples" style quest. Also the combat is more similar to that of an MMO too IMO, lots of pointless groups of enemies, lots of overpowered attacks that have long cooldowns, and now the health potions system is different in that you only have 8 (later 12) but they replenish every time you go to a campsite. So you're never caught sort. The combat is broken as fuck. A lot of focus in put on gear so if you craft your own you are immensely OP and some builds are just insanely powerful. My mage can one shot a ton of enemy groups in a single spell before they know what hit them. Not that Origins didn't have that, but it's sidequests were generally more fleshed out. Dragon Age 3 is like if Origins was 10 times as big and had 200 more chantry board sidequests. As a result there are less towns to explore and the gameplay and story don't really bleed into each other as well. The characters are great, Bioware's strength is characters. And the main plot is good. I highly reccomend it --- When the going gets tough, the tough go have a little cry in the corner.
