Dragon Age 3

Yeah, that's a pretty substantial piece of kit. Tempted...

Some of the comments are hilarious.

You're complaining about it being 180 bucks, well it's not like that's the only price of the game and you' forced to buy it if you want to play.

And saying since DA:2 wasn't great in some opinions, Inquisition is gonna suck.

Eh the price is a fair point many people don't want to pay that much. Sure they don't have to but it, but you don't have to buy any luxury item at all. But prices that are outside the norm are fair to comment on, just as it's fair to think it's worth it.

It's an option, not an obligation, so I really don't think people have too much cause to complain. I mean, it's a LOT of stuff on top of a 50-60 dollar game.

that you can still argue is too expensive. The game itself isn't an oblivion so that isn't really an excuse. Price is a big deal for a lot of people and 180 is a lot. As such people's view on price is important on any product. Especially if they like it otherwise may as well say anything can be any price no matter what. You can disagree on value but it's silly to act like thinking the price is steep is simple whining.

Sure you can, but I don't agree. I think, considering what you get with it, they could have charged more.

It isn't Oblivion? As in, Elder Scrolls? What does that have to do with it?

Price is a big deal for me too, and if I want to buy this, I'm going to have to pay the equivalent of 230 dollars for it.

I think the complaints are largely overblown, tbh. There are three options when buying this game, and it's always been the case that the collector's editions cost more.

Are EA money-grabbing bastards? Definitely. I just think that, when you weigh what you're actually getting, the price isn't as bad as people are making it out to be.

What price do you think it should be?

I'm on my phone, meant obligation but autocorrect made oblivion.

Yes collectors editions always cost more but a lot of the times the goods aren't high quality and still less. My 3ds almost cost as much as this so while it would be neat to have I think it's too steep for what I'd likely look at once and ignore outside of the statue.

I think maybe like 120 to 130 is good unless everything is way higher quality than I'm expecting and the journal wasn't actually written by an intern 😛

Well yeah, I mean, if the stuff is bad quality, that does lower the price some.

I'd like to think though, that with the quality of other Dragon Age merchandise, this will follow suit.

Remember, this is all your fault. I hadn't even played Dragon Age until you told me to. 😛

I forget, is their multiplayer in this? I remember a while back EA wanted all games to have it

I think so, they did ask for peoples opinion on multiplayer.

On a side note in regards to preorder, after BF4 I'm never preordering a game again that has EA involved in its making in any way what so ever.

IIRC, they made a statement about there being no multiplayer, but you know how things can change.

If future installments have multiplayer, which they likely will. What do you think would be an acceptable way to do it?

I liked the Mass Effect one. The "fight the waves" one. I wouldn't mind one where you import your inquisitor and team up with three others and fight through a dungeon. Almost like an MMO. Just fill it with lore and all that goodness.

Just do not, under any circumstances, attach it to single-player or integrate it. That was a ***** move, and I frankly want to hurt the person that said that single-player was dead.

9 companions confirmed (which we already know), though a statement from Bioware saying that there will definitely NOT be any companion DLC:

So no more Jaavik issues.

I'd be cool with more dragon age or mass effect style games being co op, where another person experiences the story with you. Separate relation ship meters, so you guys can fight over the party waifus

And if you guys pick drastically different options at the end that can't be compromised, the final boss ends up being each other for the fate of whatever.

I'd be up for something like that. Definitely.

I've always wanted games like elder scrolls and fallout to try something like that instead of an mmo, just a small multiplayer group where things can still matter.

Yeah, I'll won't be spending any money on this title until I know it's good. There are far too many alarm clocks going off with the fan fiction approach, the catering to fanboys and the incentive to capitalize on DA2 rather than DA😮.

Fan fiction approach and catering to fanboys? In what way?

Agreed, it'd be interesting imo. Imagine exploring the world of Skyrim with a friend, etc.
