I've struggled for replay ability with Dragon Age! It's very good but it's hard to care a second time around.

Funny, my impression is quite different. The good voice acting draws me in every time.

The atmosphere is all but gone on the 3rd playthrough, but that never was one of its strong points anyway.

Third play through?!?

I have really enjoyed it, but I can't imagine a second full play through let alone a third!

I played Dragon Age 2 and liked it well enough. I started a second playthrough to try and achievement hunt and I think I got half way through before losing interest and moving on. Even with a different character many of the interactions are just to blah. Plus on the first playthrough I spent a fair bit of time on guides to get all the items. So I already knew what would happen.

Philly I wish to duel you, when I'll finally get my hands on AW. You seem like a fun COD player. Not many of these are hanging around nowdays.

Ps4!

We have great fun.  You couldn't hear anyone else though!  Sounded like I was talking to myself!

I thought the Jewish Panda was talking about the first one... :unsure:

Obviously I'm not playing the new one yet. That would make me one of the cool kids, after all.

Well some people are finishing the third one for the second and third time, so it wasn't totally crazy!

I am not really much of a fan of the upgrade system.  Seems more confusing than anything else.  I did enjoy killing the Carta and raiding the mining facility.  Dwarf ruins are awesome.

Dwarf ruins are awesome.

Rule of thumb, the dwarven ruins in any dragon age game are the best part.

Just you, your companions, ancient shadow-filled hallways dozens of miles under solid rock and darkspawn, dragons, demons and giant spiders lying in wait for you in the dark.

All you can do is slam your helm down, ready your sword and say "Bring it!".

I love the dwarf ruins in skyrim, too.

Wish you could be a dwarf though"

Elder Scrolls Dwarves are really Elves, right? They're the same race. :unsure:

That's actually closer to the Norse mythology were dwarves are basically elves. They were also dreamlike craftsmen that could make items that defy logic like an entire ship that could fit in your pockets and a rope made out of abstract concepts. They sort of carry this theme with them in Elder Scrolls where they end up building their own artificial god.

The Elder Scrolls dwarves are also something along the lines of Sumeria and Babylon in apperance.

Oblivion should have had Dwemer ruins instead of those boring Ayleid ones.

Raiding Dwemer ruins for ingots to craft shit was awesome.

I think i should start skyrim again.

I'm raiding them right now. Having fun with switches and stuff. Also one shotting bandits with my Ebony Bow is pure sex.
