I'm confused. What was wrong with Dragon Age 2? Granted, it wasn't Dragon Age: Origins.... but it wasn't supposed to be Dragon Age: Origins. It was Dragon Age 2. Not Dragon Age: Origins 2.
And if you go to Biowares forums and go into the Dragon Age 2 section, there really isn't that much 'against' DA2. At first there was, but to be honest. That was just people being pissy and unfairly judging a game because it wasn't what THEY wanted it to be. From a purely, unbiased and fair point of view, the game was absolutely great,
What platform are you playing it on? IMO people that played it (and DA:O) on the PC vs. on a console didn't play the same game. That's not a platform superiority comment...that type of game just doesn't work well with a control pad, so they changed the console versions quite a bit in terms of how the player interacts with the game.
On a side-note, I couldn't care less about how some guy at Gametrailers ranks E3 game presentations. :shrug: The videos are interesting, but other than that aren't the 'rankings' just somebody's opinion?
