Good game, really sad the EA didn't allow Bioware to finish the game, the repetitive locations and the overall look of the city is bland and take away from the atmhosphere.
I really wish this version of Florence's 'Im Not Calling You a Liar' was more widely available it is so so good. I can only imagine it is caught up in silly licensing nonsense.
I love this version, but It also reminds me often of the credits of this game...Dragon Age and Mass Effect games allways left me with the bittersweet feeling that I'm saying goodby to some real good friends When I finish them... It's sort depresing at times TBH
I know what you mean, for example, every time I finish DAO and it's DLCs, I get this feeling of sadness, like I'm sad the adventures are over with my Warden (for now); not a lot of games can give me that feeling, it just goes to show how great DAO is: it can make you sad that it's over!
I feel exactly the same, that's why I always struggle to finish my favourite games. It's like you went on a great adventure and in the end you have to go back to your mundane life.
100% agree. Lots of other RPGs are all good and evil but in DA2 pretty much every decision you made was bad for someone and the conflict between the mages and templars was extremely messy and both sides had great points. It was just so hard to support one side over another when you knew both sides and people on both sides. I'm rambling. My point is a lot of the major decisions were actually really lifelike. To me at least since it wasn't just good vs. evil
DA2 had a gore, macabre and sentimental story and this song just fits Hawke so much. S/he cared for all of the companions. I’m not calling you a thief - Isabela I’m not calling you a liar - Merrill / Anders I’m not calling you a ghost - Fenris / Anders
I interpret it as: I'm not calling you a liar (just don't lie to me) - Varric I'm not calling you a thief (Just don't steal from me) - Isabella I'm not calling you a ghost (Stop haunting me) - I know she's not a party member but I honestly read this as about Hawke's mother because of her death haunting Hawke I love you so much I'm gonna let you kill me - Anders (cause my Hawke lets him live and she has to flee her home because of it) ((Could also apply to Fenris if Hawke is a mage romancing him and siding with the mages)) Also these four had the biggest impact story wise versus the rest of the cast (as much as I love them don't get me wrong!)
supposedly he tweeted saying he was replaced by hans zimmer, although he deleted it some time after. Personally didn't like Inquisition's music, made me miss his work.
@@andreamorim7365 Pessoalmente eu até gostei de algumas da OST como the dawn will come e Sera was never, mas acho que o trabalho do Inon Zur nos dois primeiros jogos supera em muito a OST do inquisition, mesmo que eu goste, não é a mesma vibe.
@@Luiz235684 Para ser justo também gostei da música dedicada ao Solas no DLC Trespasser, fora disso foi a única. Mas sim, é uma vibe completamente diferente, só de olhar para a música principal do Dragon Age 2 que transmite a essência do universo dragon age, o misticismo, a aventura, companhia e o conflito, o que não senti com o inquisition. Também não sei se Trevor Morris era para ser o compositor inicialmente, até porque o primeiro teaser do inquisition dava uma vibe bem diferente, com uma música ao estilo do iron zur.
Because of the lockdown I replayed the Dragon Age Trilogy. All of them are good in my opinion, they all taste different but the depth of the characters stays excellent. But I must say that Hawke has a special place in my heart because of him/her sad story. Even more when I met her in Inquisition where I saw her so depressed, disillusioned and sad. It was like she wanted to end her life after all theses events and I saw the trip to the Fade like if it was the moment when her story should end. A sort of suicidal last stand that should close her life book. So listening again to this version of the song... damn feels.
Omg yes, so glad you pointed that out ! I’ve been replaying the game while waiting for DAV to come out, and I’ve always found there was something very compelling about the fact that, no matter what he/she does, no matter the choices he/she makes or no matter how hard he/she tries, Hawke ends up losing people he/she cares about the most and is eventually doomed to fail That’s why Hawke will always be a very special character to me. My heart burst with joy when I saw her in DAI. And then sank when I realized how defeated she sounded 😅 especially Purple Hawke, there’s some kind of despair and so much tiredness behind the quips and irony, it’s heartbreaking. And that’s why I can’t bring myself to sacrifice her in the Fade. I want her to find some peace after all the hell she went through
Same. Hawke's story is really damn depressing when you think about it. They're alive but literally every time something good happens to them it is accompanied by something much worse. They finally get enough money to buy their family's estate back? Well, your remaining sibling is gone one way or another. They become champion of Kirkwall? Well, very nice but mom just got killed by a blood mage. And then, If it wasn't bad enough already, their friend/lover blows up the chantry and a bunch of people get slaughtered. It depends on what side you pick and stuff but depending on that they also have to flee Kirkwall. As if they didn't already spend their entire life running from Templars. No wonder Hawke seems so sad in Inquisition (at least to me) even if you pick humorous Hawke.
I like this version getter than the original. That way it perfectly blends with the dragon age II sound effects and theme just makes me tear up. DA2 wasn't as good as Origins, sure, but it still holds a place in my heart.
Getting flashbacks to the first time I heard this and thinking “Oh shit, did I get the bad ending? What did I do wrong?” but god damn hearing this again makes me wanna replay DA2, what a brilliant game
Dragon age 2 I think is one of my most nostalgic games. I really loved the family dynamic. The struggle to maintain stability in a deteriorating situation. The messy line between good and evil, both sides having good and bad eggs. It is a beautiful tragedy. A shame it had such rushed development and budget cuts...
GODS like this soundtrack still fucks me up, Dragon Age 2 has to be the most emotional game I've played and probably will always be. It has it flaws, the writing and game itself, but the characters are to well-written to focus on the negative
@@jadedcur me to, poor Hawke, his family already gone and he had too…. Kill his love, and his friends had to go separate ways. leaving him alone. I cry for him.
Both inquisition and origins have major decisions where you "know" what's right and wrong and you can always do the right thing. In origins you can be a monster of a person, yes, but you kinda need to be roleplaying too make "evil" decisions. Save the elves and cure the werewolves, destroy the anvil so it can't be used to enlave people as it's bound to be, save both Connor and Isolde, save the remaining mages at the tower... Except for deciding who will be the king of Orzammar, there's always an intermediate, ethical path that seems the rigtheous one. In inquisition you just can't be evil, a stupid jerk at most. To the point: playing Dragon age 2 had me looking at the screen for minutes figuring out what i should do. There are truly grey decisions as the game makes an actual effort to show the good and bad sides in every faction. I found that amazing, honestly. I hope for remaster, with polished maps and better game mechanics (fuck the enemies falling of sky at my back), cause this plot is fricking amazing, loved it back to back.
Hawke's story.. is not a happy one. I _hated_ the fact that the Inquisitor could decide her (or his) fate. Anyway, good to see people still remember DA2.
Первая часть зашла своей эпичностью, на тебе ложится судьба мира и ты скитаешься в поисках соратников, пока тебе на спину дышит Мор и Архидемон. От первой сцены до сих пор мурашки по коже. За это и люблю первую часть. В этой же части ты решаешь более приземлённые проблемы. Здесь нет добра и зла, есть выгода. Порой трудный выбор приходилось делать во время прохождения, даже если вроде выбрал оптимальное решение, в душе оставалось горечь. Вот за это и люблю вторую часть.
i think its more the case that an outside influence (game sounds producer) remixed her vocals in a more commercial manner befitting a multi-mill video game. it worked out really well as her usual base is a bit more edgy, bohemian and less mass market, but mixing her unique tone in this way paid off with a much more palatable version
This was a great game. I became champion of Kirkwall and I destroyed the invading Qunari, Killed a million bandits and monsters and blood mages of various types and destroyed the evil enchanter and the evil knight commander. I became a vicount of the city and had to kill the person I was in love with because he turned evil and started a war. Highs and Lows, Laughs and smiles, tears and anger and betrayal. Varric truly tells a great story.
this is the highest quality version of this... other versions on youtube or even in the game itself has much more noticeable peaking and crackling during the high volume parts. There're still present in this version but they at least are more minimized.
Context my version of Hawke was an "Aggressive" one that was pretty anti mage for reasons. Long story. I figured "I'll have him be mean at first. Then warm up to mages and even saving them in the end." It felt so fucking cool that I could actually DO that in game. 10 outta 10. Would bawl my eyes out again because I had to be mean to Merril and Anders for the plot. It was tough lol
It’s also kind of sad that Hawke doesn’t have a major role in DA: I. Which is also sadder that Hawke is also the weakest protagonist between the three. The HoF is a Grey Warden and lore wise their pretty much the fantasized Captain America. Their stronger, faster and even can plan out battles a head of time before. Plus having the DLC they can use their actual Darkspawn blood to buff themselves or to deal damage to their enemies (DLC portion). But like all powerful heroes, the HoF have one weakness: The Calling. Which according to DA: I lore, their trying to free all of their Warden comrades from it. The Inquisitor main gimmick is to close rifts, enter the rift physically and opening rifts is from the anchor. Even then they still got an army behind them. The character is sworn to defend Thedas from a bigger threat. But during the Trespasser DLC, they can close to disband the Inquisition entirely. But take the Anchor away and like Hawke, the Inquisitor is just a human being who’s is destine on bigger things.
Same. It's still my favourite game out of all three. I loved Origins and Inquisition but DA2 was just something entirely different. There was no saving the world plot. It was just a story about characters. It became so much more personal because, instead of fighting for the entire world, you fight for people you are much closer to. The characters were great. Maybe because the game entirely focused on them instead of a giant goal. All the companions follow Hawke for *Hawke* instead of a bigger goal for the good of Thedas. I could go on about this for days but the point is, I love this game and it gets too much shit. This amazing game was made in only one year. I'm impressed.
I honestly think this would've been such a better song choice for inquistion. Listen to the lyrics. Especially as a romance Lavellen, this is insane. Solas has lied to you, stolen your heart and all you knew of your history, and he watches or 'haunts' you from the fade/your dreams. The ghost in the chorus could work for those that drank from the well and with mythal, now him, having control over you. And finally, 'When you kiss me, I am happy enough to die' and 'I love you so much, I'm gonna let you kill me', could come down to the inquisitor knowing that they're going to die if they can't convince solas or that because they love him so much, they'll let him kill them. This is Crazy XD
Nah, it's literally about Anders and it fits the best for him, because you can kill him even if you're in a romance with him and he litearlly expects you to do so. He even thanks you for letting him be happy for a while. This song is literally about him. Yeah it may fit a bit for Solas I guess but the song is literally about Anders lol I like Solavellan too but this is about Anders
@@ZombiesOhMyGod Its just my opinion/personal thoughts. For me, it suits better/has more impact when thinking of Solas. The song wasn't written specifically for DA:2 so it's up to anyone's interpretation really. Don't get me wrong, it fits DA:2, I just think it suits Inquistion/solas more personally
@@fayesackville8655 I personally think that it fits all of the romances of DA2, and how they all hurt Hawke in some way, but despite that, Hawke still loves them. "I'm not calling you a Liar/just don't lie to me" --This is Anders, and about how he lied to to you keep you safe from being associated with what happened with the chantry, even if Hawke insists that he tell them the truth "I'm not calling you a thief/just don't steal from me" --This is Isabela and about how she stole from the Qunari and From you by running away before the end of the second act "I'm not calling you a ghost/just stop haunting me" --This is Fenris, and how he left Hawke for years, and is himself like a ghost in how isolated he is, and with how he "haunts" the old mansion "I love you so much/I'm gonna let you kill me" --This is Merrill and is about how her use of blood magic does have its consequences and actually hurts and even kills the people she loves because they want to protect her. But like you said, its up for interpretation, and your thoughts are completely valid :) and I wanted to share mine too :)
Back when Dragon Age was cool. Despite DA2 being heavily rushed and underdeveloped, it's still a wholesome game. And DA4 feels like it's going to be soulless shite despite being 10 years into development, honestly
Been replaying DA II in 2024, 'tis was a masterful sketch if a so great game
Good game, really sad the EA didn't allow Bioware to finish the game, the repetitive locations and the overall look of the city is bland and take away from the atmhosphere.
Just finished the game
I need this version on spotify ❤
I really wish this version of Florence's 'Im Not Calling You a Liar' was more widely available it is so so good. I can only imagine it is caught up in silly licensing nonsense.
I’d buy it on iTunes, for a stupid high mark up too

This and whenever I heard bad choices from mass effect
The thing I loved about DA2 was the morally grey decisions you had to make constantly. It's different from DAO and DAI and I love it.
Did you let Hawk sacrifice himself in DAI
100% agree. Lots of other RPGs are all good and evil but in DA2 pretty much every decision you made was bad for someone and the conflict between the mages and templars was extremely messy and both sides had great points.

Zefer Bob I did
Shame the companions were obnoxious human trash
Yeah because choosing between two options (mage or templar) is so hard
DA2 had a gore, macabre and sentimental story and this song just fits Hawke so much. S/he cared for all of the companions.
I’m not calling you a thief - Isabela
I’m not calling you a liar - Merrill / Anders
I’m not calling you a ghost - Fenris / Anders
Interesting! I thought the "liar" line was for Varric, but it really does work for Anders, too!
Actually this whole song fits the Anders romance 100%
I interpret it as:
I'm not calling you a liar (just don't lie to me) - Varric
I'm not calling you a thief (Just don't steal from me) - Isabella
I'm not calling you a ghost (Stop haunting me) - I know she's not a party member but I honestly read this as about Hawke's mother because of her death haunting Hawke
I love you so much I'm gonna let you kill me - Anders (cause my Hawke lets him live and she has to flee her home because of it) ((Could also apply to Fenris if Hawke is a mage romancing him and siding with the mages))
Also these four had the biggest impact story wise versus the rest of the cast (as much as I love them don't get me wrong!)
