What is it? Just a single player RPG like Diablo 2?

How often do you pause the game?
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes!

i play it on normal since it was my first time with such a party fight idea but i didnt wipe more than 2-3 times.
hardest fight was the first troll on the tower Razz
even the sacred ashes dragon was easier!!!
but i guess its all about setup really.

Lyyk, what, 3 mages (PC, Wynne, Morrigan)+Tank = nightmare is easy.

On classes I'd say magic is op
Rogues are fine with dex fix with daggers (although if you ignore cunning for max str+36dex for dw Starfall+Veshielle/Asturians vs Darkspawn it's probably better).

2h warriors are shit, DW warriors are decent but you lack a few good dw abilities from rogue (not to mention warrior specializations are shit for dw). You do gain Keening Blade (warrior only Longsword, probably best combo vs non-blightspawn with Starfall in mh).

Archers are just bad (although dex-fix helps a bit).


The lack of a container in the party camp is really annoying (although you can get one in the DLC Warden's Keep area).

Overall I like the story and gameplay is rather fun, but the AI I think is really really bad, You can lure with ranged abilities (Pull 2 mobs out of a room with 10, I mean wtf, they are too stupid to call their fellow blightspawn who are twiddling their thumbs or something).

Still, a lot of steps backwards from Mass Effect imo.

Some bugs as well

There are some problems with both DLC's disappearing, that can be fixed by using the pirate version of the DLC (no official fix still...)

Ending where you become king by marrying Anora (human male Noble only) is bugged, it shows as if she never remarried in the ending text (even though she declares you as the new king in a scene)

I'm disappointed that magic is so powerful tho.
Winter's Grasp/CoC->Stone Grip kills everything, if needed you can abuse doors: open door, pause, cast blizzard/tempest/inferno, close door rapes large clusters.
3 mages = 3 Storms of the Century as well Very Happy

Also, I played around with Shale a bit and he's shit compared to Alistair/(spoilertankspoiler).
The abilities of his different trees require that stance, so you're microing either his stance to get some ranged/dps shit in or staying in tanking stance because you're taking a beating.

While as Alistair with Knight-Commander Armor (40% Spell ignore)+Spellward (30% spell ignore)+ 3 Dweomer Runes in The Veshialle or Keening Blade is sick spell ignore ( dragons missed all spells).
Also Sword+Shield talents are SOOOO much superior to Shale's talents (Knockback immunity <3)

Game's rather short if you get Wynne with Haste spell (+50% movement speed).

Neco allowed? Anyway, finally finished this game with all classes now (war/rogue/mage) on nightmare when I finally found some spare time from the gf.. And like some said, an awsome game mostly (graphics/quests/igmovies etc) but some parts just pure failures (bad AI like grunge said - makes the game to easy, "short" gameplay with itemupgrades, limited combat tactics!! etc). Hopefully some awsome "expansions" can follow this up and fix annoying bugs/flawes etc.

Anyway, pees out.

There's this Tactics modification mod that gives a bit more control, but underlying problems still remain.

Yeah, seen it before. Tried it, but didnt work together with another old mod I found which gave you 25 combat tactics on all chars instantly instead, which is a must to play that game, without going mental atleast.
