Any word from Wiz in whether or not TPU will be doing a performance review?

Game seems popular and shouldn't pose any issues with installing copies for testing.

I hold extremely strong opinions on this game - in fact, the only positive about it that I have seen so far and I give it credit for is that it seems to have exposed industry-wide corruption at a very large scale, so I'm not going there.

I guess it makes me a little sad because despite it all I still hold a shred of hope that it's salvageable, I've never played the Dragon Age series (kept getting thrown in my backlog), but I have been recommended both Origins and Inquisition in more than one occasion and in fact, I have acquired my own copies of both games through EA's Origin service and the EGS over time. Everyone who recommended me these games had nothing but praise for them, and it seems that this title took that trust and simply shattered it.
For me personally I hate what's happening to the industry as someone who's been a gamer for forty years I really don't like it especially when I see games like this getting the spot light while others are buried and I hate not being able to talk about it I've lost all respect for some platforms I used to trust because of this censorship. And I definitely don't like being called childish for having an opinion I care deeply about it makes me wonder why such a hot topic is taboo because surely the only was to understand is communication.

I will wait for all the bugs to be found and hopefully fixed, and all the dlc's released, then pick up the game in some discounted goty package

There was so long time since I played the Inquisition, that I totally forgot the lore, what happened and what was the conclusion...
A previously trailer should be good if I can find it somewhere....

No, you were called childish because you bought something, not to play it, but to write a bad review about it, as you've decided it's a bad game, that's it.
I have not played any of the Dragon Age games and I have no idea if this is a good or a bad game, but clearly, most gamers on Steam appear to like the game.
I cover plenty of games here and if you have a look at my weekly roundup, it covers everything from indie games to this.
I don't know why you don't like this game, but there has been a lot of hate on TPU and the internet in general towards games that are inclusive, which I simply don't understand. Why are people upset about the lead being a normal looking woman or a gay person or an ugly alien? It's a game, you're not playing you, which I thought was the whole point of games. I've played and keep playing female characters in plenty of games, does that bother me? Not the least.
If you don't like a game, don't buy it. There, you voted with your wallet. Am I going to buy this game? No. It's not the kind of game I play. There, done, finished.
