Weekends are dangerous. To much free time from work and this happens:
Don't take Iron Bull in your party. He has the least interesting party banter.
Dorian is smart and witty, Varric is sarcastically funny, Blackwall is serious and not much entertaining but he has STR 25 and with a two handed weapon you need him to actually kill something. Cole the ghost is morbid but does excellent party banter with Varric or Cassandra
Cassandra is always a must,she has it all.The only one with CON 19 with a shield she is always the last one standing(in my case)
Cassandra with Iron Bull make the most awkward party banter.
I had a torch in my hand ,went trough a curtain of water and it put out. My character commented on that ,wile that happened. The game is so alive! A must play,i think for people that love a high quality gaming.
I have that rare feeling when playing Dragon Age Inquisition that this is something worth enjoying for non gaming people. Somebody that never played a video game could pick this up for the very first time and keep playing it till the end. Very very few video games can do that to somebody. Definitely this is what it's all about
Whenever a person frome the "outside" looks at somebody else playing let's say Counter Strike, will immediately judge that person and say
"why will i ever waste my time doing this".
Amazing video games have the power to attract even the uninterested. Bizarre about it is, most of these video games are not on the top list of gamers.
Dragon Age Origins is one of the best masterpiece that PC-gaming has to offer. Still a non-gamer would not like this title. Inquisition, on the other hand it attracts you from every angle.
I encouraged my non-gaming friend to give it a go. He started the story from the beginning,and immediately was captivated. He wanted more cutscenes,more dialog, he needed to know what happens after. Lost track of time for 2 hours,and he lost his buss home. I was just standing next to him watching him play. I remember him trying out Skyrim at my place back in 2013.He did not like it. And i told him
"remember you did not like Skyrim so similar to this" he said
"it wasn't like this..." He couldn't explain why.

Might as well edit this then start another.
2 hours and about 40 minutes of gameplay at the end of western approach (final side quests) and i am using this party build. So far one of the worst builds i have encountered .
NO party banter what so ever! They are silent all the time. Ironbull said two dialog lines ,and just now entered a cave and Dorian exclaimed "this should be interesting". That's it.
More to it, this is one of the weakest party builds. I encounter difficulties when attacked by 5 enemies or more. I am about to try a dragon to see what happens.

Finished my dragon slayer staff
-------------------------------------------------
I've did the fade quest.
At the end when fighting that boss there is a HUGE bug. You must kill the little mobs before taking down the boss! If not you will never get the cutscenes. I've searched the internet about 10 minutes to find a solution.
Apparently Corypheus is after one of these mirrors.
--------------------------------
Another one is down! And how spectacular are the fights!
You get a real sense of danger from fighting these beautiful dragons. Not even close to Skyrim. In Skyrim the dragons are big moobs,that's it. These are so alive and every one of them has different tactics. There magnificent boss fights.
Do not kill dragons when you have the best gear. You will regret it,cuz there to easy.
I managed to get this one after failing with all other party members. I finally got Cassandra to tank and Vivienne to use only here Knight Enchanter skills. That did the trick.
Did not chose to go with KE as my own class cuz it's to boring spamming the same two skills all the time. I got Rift Mage instead.
