    Dragon Age: Inquisition Demo - Your Stories are Thedas' Stories

    I think both Origin and DA2 companions are not very good; I think I only ever liked Sten and Varric, the others were forgettable or badly characterized. My focus was more on the Warden vs. Hawke side of things, with the latter fitting more with Bioware's style than the former. I'm not saying...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition Demo - Your Stories are Thedas' Stories

    You pretty much nailed it. A linear story isn't a bad thing in and of itself, but it becomes one if what you are promising are meaningful choices that in the end aren't meaningful at all. Just like you I didn't like Origins very much, and the reason I think is the fact that they decided to go...

    Colin Farrell Says Warcraft Script Is "Really, Really Cool"

    I really like Farell as an actor. Sure, he's got some poor performances, but who hasn't in the business? That being said, I do not think that this would have been the kind of movie for him. Or maybe it would have been, still not quite sure as to where Jones wants to take this thing.

    Witcher Dev Opening Second Studio for "Smaller" Games

    The first Witcher has some serious flaws, mostly a really sloppy combat and some issues in the quests, but I stil think it is a really great game. The fact is that I personally love having to explore and dig in on your own to get all the sweet tidbits of lore, and having my choices have real...

    Witcher Dev Opening Second Studio for "Smaller" Games

    Yes! There's no such thing as too many CDPR games; I cannot wait to see their care and skill put on "smaller" games, I'm so very interested in the results.
