Dragon Age is not a popular IP.

I know one person who was excited for this release.

I tried to get into it in DA2, but the characters and story were so fucking cardboard I couldn't stand it.

Origins was such an awesome game. I've been disappointed since.

Varrick is a national treasure (but DA2 did kind of suck)

Varrick is a national treasure

You did the thing!

Interestingly enough, autocorrect is changing Varric to Varrick, but also yes.

I was excited for this, and then I saw some of the dialogue and character design. Woof.

I loved how dumb DA2 was, played it a whole bunch. Loved that there were only, like 6 dungeon maps, with customizable barriers for "variety".
