Dragon Age: Inquisition
Maybe spoilers ahead
Finally made it to The Hissing Wastes
This for me was the last area before the ending. Had not previously discovered or did any other quest here. The Hissing Wastes is the smallest of all regions with the fewest quests. In full party at lvl 23-22 and top gear items i finished the area in 5 tedious hours (i read the letters,notes,books that i find). "Notes on the Waste" was hard,and unfortunately not very rewarding and also toked me the longest to complete.
In this area i had the pleasure to confront this old lady.
High Dragon Sandy Howler.
All High Dragons are female gender. And the ones that are asleep are the most dangerous.
Then it woke up
and this happened
At the time i was looking for The Tomb of Fairel,wondering were the Hissing Waste dragon is.....and there she was! Varric pointed her out to me.
At first i thought this could be the worst party combination for a dragon slaying. Turns out i was right. Toked me 15 minutes. All the potions that i had on me. And my entire party kept dying on me all the time. I played active on Cassandra. Because my gear was so strong,i managed to take Sandy Howler down on the first try.
My final dragon was Highland Raveger. Sleeping like a baby. You can hear he snoring.
We had to wake her up,to get things done.
as you can see she was not pleased about it
Did it in one try...and it was a complete pleasure. So much time and preparation to face this beauty! Battling these gorgeous dragons has been a privilege. Makes Skyrim dragons look like overgrown normal mobs . They were so alive and present. Here you feel the dragons "danger" with each and every one of them having different tactics. Different resistances,and weaknesses. One better then the other, destroying the environment around them as you try to fight them.
As the game ends you have to go to Mythal Temple.
Here you meet a dear old friend.
Morrigan is not happy about this
***She is my number one character in the entire Dragon Age series. Her story throughout all of the games is fascinating.
I let Morrigan drink from the Well of Sorrows. If i ever play the game again,probably do the same (or not). It was the most calculated decision. ***Reason why i couldn't play Mass Effect again.Once i make a decision,i thinking about it and then do it. Playing the game over and over taking different decisions for the sake of versatility,is not me.
"I wish you had drank from the well" she said to me . Just shows just how brilliant the writers of the game are.
And my final battle. With my final party combination. No idea it was going to end here ,and these were the characters i would be facing The Red Lyirium Dragon & Corypheus!
The level of difficulty was medium and my gear was completely OP! The final battle was easy. Still fighting the dragon i had to take control of Cassandra,we were getting our butts kicked. The bots have no idea how to properly tank.
Game completion time about 112 hours. At the end of my calculation this number turned up....
Dragon Age Origins definitely the start of an amazing game! It got a bit rusty along the way with Dragon Age 2. Can never complain about DA2, looking at other titles in it's genre is still a solid experience.
Inquisition however is the cherry on top of the cake. The story has so much depth, game cutscenes full of emotion, great voice acting. The game makes you feel that you got a purpose, integrating you into its story. The graphics are more than gorgeous even for 2015 standards. **My print screens are miserable**
Even when fighting almost the same mobs,rift monsters or red templars, the settings of the battle are different,the surrounding area is different ,constantly forcing you to somehow adapt in skill usage and potions of every party member. Only Mass Effect (with staggering all tree games) and DA Inquisition gives you this uniqueness.
Dragon Age Inquisition is the BEST game of the series.
*****The multiplayer experience is bad.
