What am I in for, /v/?
Who should I choose for my party?
/v/ will tell you it's shit, but it's really not that bad.
I usually roll with Cas and Iron Bull, bur Dorian is pretty good too if you need yourself a mage.
you should just decide for yourself who you like and take them with you so others don't shape your opinions of the companions before you meet them. it'll be a lot more fun
that being said if you havent played the previous titles then you'll probably like it. i like dragon age and i wasn't really as fond of this game as i was Origins.

A decent game with alot of stuff to do but with forgettable gameplay, story, world, and DLC.
Pick Varric, Dorian, and Iron Bull.
>>340247286
Yeah it's neat they included her as a party member this time around. Right now I'm settled in with Cassandra and Varric.
>>340247546
Thanks anon but it's too late for that. I'm actually hoping for some reference to previous games. Got any tips for a new player?
>>340247031
A very boring game.
Seriously, it plays like a single player mmo. The game is like 80% filler.
>>340247031
An offline 'mmorpg' styled game with a disapointing story. I litteraly had to force myself to finish it because I wanted to see how it ended but as expected it was shit.
Get the mod that removes the gathering animation. Improves the game 100%
The gay dude is funny to have in your party

What did you think was decent? Was managing the keep at least worthwhile?
>>340249148
So, like Hollow Fragment.
>>340250158
I've heard some good shit about Dorian without hearing much at all.
>>340247031
What class?
>>340250396
Rogue. I'm planning to replay for each class.
>>340250158
>see images of Dorian before the game comes out
>absolutely hate him based on his appearance
>finally meet him in game
>he's one of the most likeable characters in the game and my favourite party member
well shit
>>340250342
The thing that made it decent was the occasional fun quest (like the Grand Ball or your party's personal sidequests)
Managing the keep is a bore and provides no benefit
>>340250510
Melee or archery?
>>340250612
Dorian and Bull were some of the coolest motherfuckers in the game, even Sera is fun after you talk to her for a bit and figure out what she's about. The only one I don't talk to at all is the retarded tranny.
>>340250678
Cool, I'll look out for those. What did you think of Sera? I was going to romance her until finding out she doesn't swing that way.
>>340250730
Melee, baby.
Magic is absolute fucking shit in this game.
Just total fucking atrocious shit, especially compared to DA:O or even DA2.
>Baseline specs are
>Fire
>Ice
>Lightning
>Spirit
>allowed one specialization, which are all pretty fucking lame too
That should tell you to stay away from mages.
>>340250814
Well...aside from the obvious of most people thinking she's ugly, I thought she was pretty annoying and never used her.
But I think if you're gonna roll a chick she's a good romance pick for lesbo stuff.
>>340250510
Honestly the combat and classes are so shallow playing through once with a class will be enough. Plus your partners are literally the other classes, which you can play as, so...
>>340250814
Melee is gonna be all about trying not to get hit.
desu rogue is the one class I haven't played ever so you have me at a disadvantage.
Sera is cool if you take the time to talk to her, the only truly shitty party member is Solas.
>>340250917
>He didn't play Knight Enchanter
>>340247031
>What am I in for, /v/?
Shoddy craftsmanship overall.
>Who should I choose for my party?
Considering they took out healing spells you basically just need a dedicated tank and any other setup will work.
>>340247031
Complete garbage - game doesn't even try to immerse you into the world. Your a commander of most world feared Inquisition - and what do you do after you get to first map ? - you collect goat ases - 50 was it ? don't remember - wan't to forget i ever played this shit.
>>340250342
>What did you think was decent? Was managing the keep at least worthwhile?
What little actual main story there is, probably 10-ish hours or so, isn't horrible. But really game is amazing if you're a completionist and want to 100% each zone because it's your modern open world game checklist bullshit some people seem to like.
Best Class Specialization:
>Templar.
>Assassin
>Knight Enchanter
>>340251021
I might roll a female apostate so I can whine to everyone how hard it is.
>>340251035
I hear you, I'm also doing it for the additional dialogue and swapping alignments.
>>340251067
I was planning to build around hit and run tactics & burst damage after trying the multiplayer.
>>340251346
I'm not really one of those people, so I'm hoping the side content is rewarding enough.
