Again, stay tuned for a separate PC review.TOP GAME MOMENTDespite a bitch-slap of an ending (setting it up for a sequel no doubt), there's some really great moments in this game...
Player choice manifests itself in interesting ways, Spectacular writing and voice acting bring each character to life, Fascinating world characterized by moral ambiguity, Combat is fun, fastpaced, and colorful, Great symphonic soundtrack.
Main story lacks focus and drive, Multiple elements have been inexplicably simplified over the original, Long loading times and technical stutters.
It isn't the wonder its predecessor was, but Dragon Age II is still a quality role-playing game that focuses on the element of choice to great effect....
Every modification to the gameplay and structure of Dragon Age II is a clear improvement over the previous game. The combat is more responsive and bloody, you don’t need to fight the inventory system anymore, and conversations are more engaging thanks ...

It's amazing that Bioware would take its premier IP, and take risks with it, while still turning out a genuinely interesting RPG
The reaction to this game is going to discourage anyone from trying anything innovative ever again
With Dragon Age 2, Bioware has delivered a very different RPG that's still set within the very interesting world it came up with in Dragon Age 1. It's an ace combination...
Abstract: Bioware, the studio behind Dragon Age 1 and 2, have carved out a niche for themselves in the world of RPGs. Consistently they release games that delve deep into the original universes they create. Political intrigue, frighteningly in-depth plots, unique a...
I thoroughly enjoyed Dragon Age II and the new streamlined interface definitely makes playing the game a much more enjoyable experience. It may be set in another dusty old sword and sorcery universe but the game mechanics, characters and story a create...
