pc players talking about missing the combat of dao and how good it is as if they don’t have twenty million quality of life improvements and still constantly use skip combat mods. you do not want dao combat again. you hate it. take it from a console player who is forced to endure dao as it actually is: you do not want this again. you are not playing dao and you can’t even begin to understand how little you know it nor how good you have it

#keeping some degree of tactical elements and party control is good but dao is not a good game to play. its bad #i’m genuinely astounded at how much it sucks to play despite only being from 2009. it’s aged Decades it feels #which is baffling because earlier bioware games and even da2 just a year and a half later don’t have this problem or it’s only a fraction #as bad as origins is #anyways every da game is super different from the last and also dai will be a decade old when dreadwolf comes out and origins can probably #get a learner’s permit to drive in the us by that time. the new gameplay’ll be fine probably and either way that’s not really what most #fans are really here for anyhow. it’s about the cast and the world and scrambling that egg #i just really hate this specific kind of player who’s deluded themselves into thinking origins doesn’t suck #it’s good and it’s bad and feels terrible and amazing #it needs a remake for so many reasons and number one is an oghren rewrite and number two is making it bearable to play #also we literally have no idea what the gameplay for dreadwolf looks like in practice so maybe save your comments for when you play it
