I guess you didn't quite catch the sarcasm in the post...
You suck at sarcasm. And your comment is still stupid considering that the game hasn't been released. Saying a game has seen drastic changes and sucks due to the 5 1 minute clips you've watched is a poor judgement of an interactive medium.
I guess we are not allowed to make any judgements about games before they are released based on what has been shown to us then, ever.
Based on the clips I've seen, as well as the developer talks that have occured, the articles that I've read, and the question and answer periods that I have gone through, I have determined that they are changing combat to be more "action-oriented" rather than the tactical adventure it was before (removing the tactical camera and jumping into battle directly). They are also changing the story format to be about 1 specific person that they give (a Commander Shephard if you will) rather than to role-play a character of your choosing from the beginning. These things to me tell me they are changing a lot of what made Dragon Age so unique in the first place, and is why I played the game.
Yes, the game has not been released, but the developers have not shown me anything to allay my fears at all. I can only make my decision to buy the game based on the advertising that they show us, and right now it shows me that they are changing it. They are trying to make this sequel a more mass-market game, trying to appeal to a new market, rather than stick with what made the first one good and unique to begin with.
