What players say

i knew this game was shorter than origins but wow i didn't think it'd be this short! it was okay, but the lack of places to explore was making it super repetitive at times (the bone pit im talking to you). just felt like its missing something. need more oomph or whatever. definitely not better than DAO but good enough to ease the longing i suppose battles are much smoother though and i really liked how they reworked...

A really good game that flew under my radar; since I was disappointed with veilguard and didn't have anything new to play I decided to finally dust off the second game after replaying the first. DA2 was a game that suffered from a lack of resources, a terrible dev cycle, and poor management, yet still managed to come out pretty damn amazing. The only complaint I had about my time with it was not getting to see what...

The game is fun but you need the EA launcher to use it and it dosen't fill the screen properly.
