Not entirely on Earth, but say it were 50-75%, would that constitute a FAIL to you, no matter the amount of overall polish?

Also another bad omen, having Spike TV premiere the ME3 trailer! That was a curious move…

I'd only wish more time be taken, if Earth was going to be the 75% of the game; I'd certainly not want to put an end to ME 3 :(

@dygitalninja:

I've heard that Earth will be a key setting in ME3. Is anyone else really really fucking worried that DA: Kirkwall will be analogous to Mass Effect: Earth? I believe that DA:2 is definitely a bad omen.

Predictions for 2011:

"AND WHAT THE FUCK DOESNT THE CHAMPION OF KIRKWALL EVER HAVE BUSINESS ELSEWHERE? ME I AINT THE CHAMPION OF SHIT BUT I STILL MANAGE TO GET THE FUCK OUT OF DETROIT ONCE IN AWHILE BUT APPARENTLY OUR BIG HARD FUCKING HERO HAWKE DESPITE HIS FABULOUS FUCKING WEALTH IS HAPPY STARING AT THE SAME FUCKING BRICKS FOR SEVEN YEARS…

Am I the only one pissed off by all this sirrah sirrah shit every time you simply try to purchase a new robe or sell a trash can emblem?

I'm trying…I'm not going to stop having strong opinions, though. At least they're not of the usual "down with the AVC Games Section" variety—that has got to count for something :)

How to protest DA:2 (Attn: all you core fanboi elitist)
***The problem is that core gamers aren't being lost when experiments like this go awry. We still pre-ordered and picked up our copies despite noting how unremarkable and disappointing the demo was. We then find the good in it, after investing time, a type of…

@Fourchan,

Hawke AKA Sirah Sirah!!!
Why the fuck is everyone in Kirkwall addressing me as Sirah (sp?, sometimes 2X)

"I really have to disagree with Asuka's point that the disconnect here between critic reviews and user reviews is caused by critics not playing the game enough. Metacritic seems to only allow you to look at the 60 most recent user comments but even there a significant portion of them are from March 8, the game's…

@Fourchan…

Out of respect: For the comments here
I won't be trolling this Monday.

I'm 15 hours in, and the only romance options I've come across are with male whores (and I'm a male mage)…

No excuse for MPV!!

You playing it for 360 or PS3? What's your gamer/user names for either? I'll send you a friend request: Mine are Tribal Warriors (PSN) and Noble7 Mike 229 (360)—if you want to beat me to the punch.

It's too early for me to judge this game in comparison to DA:O, since I played about 60 hours of that, and only invested about 4 hrs into DA:2. Additionally, since I played DA:O late in 2010, I had the privilege of owning the Ultimate Addition, which I believe easily warrants more praise than the original copy, which…

I will I promise! He'll get no more of my attention…HTH you're all right, man.
