DAO was fucking great though wasn't it!
Ah, DAO. As a fan of Baldur's Gate and all things Bioware I was unreasonably exiced for this one. Finally proper RPG is back, bringing all the production value of after-KOTOR bioware titles. It was my first purchased title, for which I paid with my first earned money during my first yeat at Uni.
It launched and got great reviews. And then I played it. With a friend we booked a whole day off just to play as much od DAO as possible in one day. And after couple hours (I remember slogging through mages tower) we looked at each other and realised - this is pretty shit. Dull world, predictable plot, uninteresting, long winded companions, no sense of fun or adventure, repetitive, shallow combat. And then there was the guy bugging me in the camp to buy more content for a game - my first encounter with in-game content.
So yeah, not many fond memories of that one. Tried it many times after, and always coming to the same conclusion. It is just not a very good title, no matter from which side I look.
