EA's Inquisition
About 30 minutes of Dragon Age Inquisition's gameplay was leaked today. A lot of the world was revealed in all of its Frostbite Engine glory, and the combat appears to have been reworked so that it won't suck. Graphically the game does look very impressive, with highly detailed and colorful environments . And much to the dismay of many fans, the BioWare dialogue circle is making its triumphant return. Personally I don't see that much of an issue with the dialogue circle, but I guess it can lead to issues with artificial morale choice dilemmas.
The footage shows a focus on diverging paths, with popup side missions occurring at the same time as the one you're currently on. While this does make for some variety, I could also see it being an annoyance for someone like me, who constantly gets sidetracked in these open world RPGs. I guess creating more chances for you to not see the main story doesn't seem ideal to me. Ultimately, Dragon Age Inquisition still looks like it's going to be a lot of fun, and the game play footage here has only reinforced that excitement.

Hmm, don't know what to think of this yet. While Dragon Age Origins became a drag as it went on, it still was a great RPG and Dragon Age 2 - while more exciting (and easier) combat, in a way I still preferred Dragon Age Origins a lot more.

I just wish they put the combat back to DA:O. The first game and it's expansion were near perfection, then they went all mental.
