    Writing: abysmal, repetitive, brain-dead
    Companions: treat you as if you're suffering from brain damage, repeat themselves constantly, bland, annoying, patronizing
    Combat: repetitive af, too flashy
    Enemies: barely any variation, almost exclusively bipedal, faceless mooks, more often than not identical attack patterns, mobs move, attack, and fall in sync
    Music: too Hollywood, would be more suited in a movie for children
    Art style: airbrushed, plastic-looking faces, color palettes are ugly for most armor
    Environments: while indeed beautiful & detailed, they are too linear
    Lore: butchered, retconned, contradicted, neutered
    Story: your average good vs evil, no substance, sanitized, riddled with plot holes
    Puzzles: mind-numbingly dumb, kills brain cells
    Gameplay: full of handholding, no challenge whatsoever, illusion of choice, can never be mean to anyone
    Animations: the less is said about that the better
    Humor/banter: non-existent
    10/10 gaming experience, you guys!

      So the game is perfect for current audience, most of the gamers are low iq idiots, braindeads, they cant take lose or they rage so they need easy game, they need easy story otherwise they dont understand it. Its you people that made companies create games like that because that's what you wanted . You are never satisfied with anything , so yeah congratz to you, and idiet streamers who think they are somehow better than everyone else and they manipulate their viewers to think likle they do.

    I think there is a flaw in Steam’s review policy. Not allowed to leave a bad review if you refund the game. And I can just imagine how highly refunded this game would be - because of the IP, studio legacy, and the early good reviews.
    Should be a statistic on: how many refunded the game, their average playtime. An exit survey when you refund the game, with those numbers factoring into the overall score but not as heavily as a review from someone who didn’t refund.

    “The best fantasy is written in the language of dreams. It is alive as dreams are alive, more real than real ... for a moment at least ... that long magic moment before we wake.
    Fantasy is silver and scarlet, indigo and azure, obsidian veined with gold and lapis lazuli. Reality is plywood and plastic, done up in mud brown and olive drab. Fantasy tastes of habaneros and honey, cinnamon and cloves, rare red meat and wines as sweet as summer. Reality is beans and tofu, and ashes at the end. Reality is the strip malls of Burbank, the smokestacks of Cleveland, a parking garage in Newark. Fantasy is the towers of Minas Tirith, the ancient stones of Gormenghast, the halls of Camelot. Fantasy flies on the wings of Icarus, reality on Southwest Airlines. Why do our dreams become so much smaller when they finally come true?
    We read fantasy to find the colors again, I think. To taste strong spices and hear the songs the sirens sang. There is something old and true in fantasy that speaks to something deep within us, to the child who dreamt that one day he would hunt the forests of the night, and feast beneath the hollow hills, and find a love to last forever somewhere south of Oz and north of Shangri-La.
    They can keep their heaven. When I die, I'd sooner go to middle Earth.”

And dialogues as we know are one of the key ingridient for good rpg game. Boring fight sequence are also the issue

People suffering, order felt appart, monsters taking people to horrid fate and you as a player usually have to make serious decisions and sacrifices just to stay alive. Its liek the film: The Road of the D&D. -> And they made it as a high fantasy generic D&D this time. Why? They could make this game literalyl under any D&D title or hell even make it s their own. You most of the time fight against hovering ghosts and have a light hearted banters between your teammates.

    It's pretty much like a choose your own adventure book, instead every choice leads to the same ending and reactions, and all the choices don't relate to anything or surmount to anything with any consequences. Just giving you the illusion of a choice is not actually a choice. At that point you might as well remove the dialogue wheels and just say what the creators want to say. Either just pure laziness because they didn't want to put in the work to make multiple path choices in the game, dialogue and voices, or they just thought the gamers would not notice that it's a downgrade to any previous Dragon Age games.

    But well i understand why there is 80% positive reviews on Steam, this game will please the average casual player who doesn't give a sh... for Dragon Age. I don't think they are old DA fans, maybe a few because you really need to have some kind of brain rot to think it's a Dragon Age game.
    There will be an average player base like for some indy game for a while but i guess they will never get their money back and this could be very bad for Bioware.

It spreads with tenacity and exploits tolerance from normal empethetic people to hook itself into everything, after which it will fester into extremism. As beautifully shown with Veilguard.

Ends justify the means or just using anything available to reach your goal.

    They have bots giving the same perfect 10 user reviews over and over on Metacritic, could be argued it's off setting the 0's that shouldn't be counted but still it's pushing the user score up over time. And on steam they are changing negative reviews to positive ones, if you read most of the top recommended reviews it just doesn't make any sense they read like not recommended. Also Steam is letting them block new negative reviews as well. It would be like if Hollywood rallied behind that god awful Francis Ford Coppola film that just came out and said no you have to like this thing.

    Not really convinced it's a failure when the all-time peak is still climbing this weekend.
    If anything the data suggests the social politics aren't slowing it down when a game is batting a player count on par with the PC port of God of War 2018 and the "LGBTQ+" tag is loud and clear.
    I couldn't care less about the DA franchise or Bioware anymore, but it is interesting how the most California dialogue in a major release I've ever seen hasn't been a major drawback. Makes the Concord situation even more fascinating when that game's failure was more complete than Babelon's Fall.

    The assumed budget is $250 million. They would need to sell approximately 4.3 million to simply break even. 10 million MAY be considered a huge success, all depends on how much they truly get per copy sold, the actual budget, etc. I’d say 8-10 million may be considered a smash hit and very profitable.
    So, I doubt it has hit 1 million yet and if I’m right, it is objectively a failure! And a colossal failure at that. This may cause BioWare to take the Firewalk.
