  • Ironically the "chess board game" style of gameplay for origin works far better than the hack & slash style of DAII. In DAII you feel like a one man army, which is cool at first but later on it just gets dull, In origin there is FAR more strategising involved which actually makes combat more dynamic.

  • are they going to make a movie??? at least an animation?

  • one of their greatest idea is giving your player voice XD

  • Mage's Champion armor, big ole sword. I wish you could do that in game... :-(

    3:25

    3:58

    I will say, I do really like the idea of a mage clad in armor (wish there were more in game options like the Armor of the Champion) and the staff-sword combination. I wish the blade end on the Staff of Parthalan was bigger/longer proportionally. (again like the Destiny trailer... Along with that ripping spell)

  • Though I really must agree with JaneChong.

    Prior to playing the game, these concepts seemed really attractive. Shame they didn't make an effort to work on it sufficently.

  • What amazes me is that the developers of Dragon Age 2 don't seem to understand many of the fans of the original Dragon Age one bit. The guys in this video are imo either a bunch of brainless action-hungry business-tycoons or just lying to make the product sell better (which isn't much different). "You don't want combat to feel like you're playing a chess game with a friend". Well, actually that is exactly what I enjoy. Alongside interesting and believable characters/story etc (all missing in 2)

  • It is good to put some faces to the names behind this travesty.Bioware really fucked over RPG fans with this abortion.Thank god companies like CD Projekt(the witcher series)make quality rpg's for a more mature audience.By rights The Witcher 2 should get RPG of the year

  • The concept is great, they should put more effort on presenting it in the game.

  • SHUT THE FUCK UP CRAIG

  • Those guys really did a good job, people who said they fucked up Dragon age, is very wrong, now its not just tactics and story, its even combat, in origins i always had to bring with me atleast 1 mage and 1 healer or else i would fail most of the times, and use many potions, in this one, the other classes rogues and warriors could not survive alone in origins, in this, evry class can do something.

    This game still have tactics, Difficulty is made for a purpose, to easy? raise the difficulty!

  • Keep the combat of DA2 and give us the amazing story and openworldness of DA:O and you have the perfect DA3.

  • i only playd dragon age origins , but i,m totally not gonna play this!! personal stories?? my ass!!! i want epic stories... fuck you EA... you guys gonna fuck mass effect 3 also?? heard it was delayed.. thats good news i hope!!!!!!!!!

  • @erikouwehand in what way was it not epic? if you played to the end, the champion has essentially caused anarchy in Thedas.

  • "We've kept what was good about Origins... and made something really unique" Fuck you sellout faggots. DA2 was the biggest fail ever made by bioware, or the only fail. EA destroyed the NFS series and now Dragon Age too? EA is really beginning to suck!

  • All this effort to make a DA2?

    I just made a DA2 a few minutes ago. Phew, I'm not going anywhere near the bathroom for awhile that's for sure!

  • virgoenix your right rilly stop day dreaming about dragon age origins about that its like chest like a year ago and to slow.Then saythat to dragon age 2 that it's combat is not like dragon age origins. Stop giving bull shit complants and crap about the game that it is to diffent. its just like he said they trimed of the egues to get more in depths with the carricters and the game play so you can love it even more but it seems some people wont fucking move on.

  • So this Pegi...she's 18 huh? *Wink*

  • @IMGUNA1337H4XU do you happen to know her number? xD

  • You know what I don't get? They made the fighting "flashy", which is fine, but at the same time they took out the finishing blows that you can do! two steps forward, one step back

    Another thing was the voice, I get that voice actors are expensive but Hawkes voice was definitely not made for a mage or rogue...

  • da 2 is graet but best rpg of 2011 will be witcher 2

  • da 2 is graet but best rpg of 2011 will be witcher

  • Simply disappointed in it, that concept can't follow the original DA:O.

  • What is the quest on 1:50? I don't remember anything about Castillon or that stuff.

  • @cuic93 If you talk with Isabella for a bit, she reveals to you on how Castillon is out of her head due to her failing to give him a relic. The thing in 1:50 is where you had to make a choice between helping Avaline or Isabella (I think).

  • this sooooooo much better than oblivion. sorry if it make people mad but i feel its true.

  • why didnt u just add more story and conversations in DA2!!!

  • I hope their will be a Dragon age 3

  • Lot of kids need to chill around here...

  • mass effect or dragon age?

  • @MrMurther Dragon age origins was in my opinion better than ME1, and it was just as good as ME2, ALL of this games SHIT AAAAALLLLL over DA2.

  • looks cool

  • Such an irritating video. Cool badass with spiky armor? Who are you trying to reach with this game? Is this for kids? Flashy combat, cartoony concept art. Where the hell is my dark fantasy wrpg, I don't want a jrpg.

    "Origins felt like playing chess" ueah what's wrong with that. That's why I loved it. I don't want an action da game.

    Ffs did these guys even understood why peoples liked origins?

  • @oEDLIo stop whining

  • @oEDLIo the world doesnt revolve around you

  • /watch?v=T0lQnFfBQxM

  • They should've just gone with a cell shaded look. The concept art looks AMAZING.

  • @Virgofenix As a Nintendo an who's seen how the shift from "dark" art to Cell Shaded graphics went, I can say for certain that if they went with cell shading, they'd have half the internet whining at them.

  • @GSSAGE7 I don't think it's the same case here. American high fantasy, esp. DnD, has a wealth of high-quality handdrawn art . If Bioware could just reproduce the look of the classic artbooks and animated adaptations like The Hobbit and the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, it'd be fantastic.

  • @MrAFCKeepthefaith that what happens if ur a 2H sword guy and tap X or A

  • when does the scene at 1:37 happen? it never happened in my game

  • @greennnn21 Me neither, but I think that's if you side with the Templars at the end.

  • @GriffinPilgrim i did side with the templars

  • @greennnn21 Huh. Then maybe it's one of those things they just used in the adverts.

  • i was so hyped about this game......What a disappointment.

  • im just glad that when you play a 2h warrior you dont have to wait so long for him to swing his sword lol

  • 3:48 is she wearing tin foil?

  • i just want the story :D

  • 100%_REAL_Check~Out~My~Channel­~4~Free~MSP~Nintendo_Points~PS­N~and~Xbox+Live+Subscription~C­odes

  • This is dark fantasy....? joke ....? It's sweety heroic. Check "Witcher 2" - thats could DARK fantasy !

  • dragon age 3 is coming!

    im sure

  • the elf and qunair would of been good companions i wonder why they decided not to go with them i would of gladly swaped that female elf archer for that faggot fenris and would of given up carver for the qunari

  • I really enjoyed the that the character was voiced, that really made Hawk come alive and added some personality to him. I wish it had nore awsome sequences, i only had few. Played a rogue with logbows.

    Overall, great game, great story and engaging combat :D

  • dragonage 2 is a mass effect clone in reality

  • @extrememark13 Are you have eyes or not?

  • @Gap31656 maybe a clone is not exactly the right word but it became and action\rpg game with so many common features with mass effect that ruined the game.they tried to match mass effect with dragonage world.don't tell me that this is not obvious and well known.some like this try but some other not and i know that don't like it.

  • @extrememark13 what do you mean by that?just look all the similarities.

  • Dragon age 2 is the first shity game Bioware has ever made.

  • If its not broken, LETS FUCKIN BREAK IT ANYWAYS! For those that downed on me earlier in the comments before the release, sucks to be wrong doesn't it? This game is broken compared to DAO.

  • @s4xon true words

  • DA2 sucked big time, almost no story, game is build on sidequests, tactics do not exist anymore, enemies just spawn everywhere and skills were only made to look cool, interface is super ugly and the dialogue system sucks, the only good thing about this game is Varric

    You ruined this game, i just dont know who, Bioware or EA?

  • @TheAlfonzoKazu Idk about you but the game is epix on the xbox >.> i got dao on teh pc and it sucked but da 2 is epic the only thing that sucks is the armor system but it's still awsome with the combat system so fuck off and go get teh xbox version >.>

  • Lol fucking fanboys cant even see how bad da2 is.

  • After reading some stuff I thought the game would be horrible. I played DA:O and Awakening with 100% completion. I have to say the things they improved do make up for the things DA2 lacked. All in all I had just as much fun playing it as I did in the first one. I hope they make a good expansion.

  • I don't know... I don't know.. Dragon age 2 is a good game, but the story of DA was wayyyyy much better. DA 2 just ended so soon and it wasn't so intense as DA was..

  • PS. Sorry for my English.

  • I'm a bit dissapointed with DA 2 - 'cause my character was never so cool, as it was showed in trailers. The game is full of crappy-looking items, in which your char looks like a douchebag. You couldn't also wield those cool weapons, having only things like "razor", which looked worse than items from Baldurs Gate 1 (-.-) And, althought there were many things I would complain about, in the end I have to admit the game bring me some fun... But not as much as I suspected from the trailers...

  • fuck that DAO > DA2

  • DA2 sucks ass compared to DA:origins

    story sucks

    characters sucks

    combat is preety fine(and very few other things)

    no feeling of epicness like the origins had....=/, i wated for this game so long and now i feel cheated =(

  • Watch me BEAT Dragon Age 2!! Do I find Morrigan!? :D

  • @Bip0larRick :D

  • wtf? trailer to DA 2 in a DA 2 video xD fail

  • dont like this game then dont watch this video dont buy the game dont even think about this game try that and you will see all you'r problems will be solved and it dont matter how much you guys bitch about this game because me and thousands of other people will still like it.

    people like what they like so just back the fuck off and keep you half thought out opinion to your self cus im sure i aint the only one that doesn't give a fuck about it

  • @GodHatesEmoz

    Thumbs up. :)

  • For a full working trainer for da2, visit my channel videos. Follow some of the comments as reference on how to use it.

  • people...the game is incredible! just because youre party members have now a

    bigger brain then in da:o it does not mean u need less tactic. and just becuz they took the dialog layout from mass effect, it does not mean its "dragon effect". sure

    the game is not as long as da:o, but if you do all the side quests (companions,

    rumors,etc.) you will get up to 25 h to 30h game play wich is also interesting

    but srsly? i bet every hater will still play it, becuz its still a freaking good game!

  • would every stop bitching yes theres some just hack and slash but there are still tactics and you have to use a shit ton of tactics if you play on a difficultly above "pussy"

    i cant stop playing this game is almost perfect the only i problem i have with this game is the level's, they use the same location over and over like every cave place looks the same but besides that this is the funnest tactical rpg i have ever played

  • @GodHatesEmoz

    Really?

    All the tactics in hard so far seems "dont forget to chug some potions".

    All the tactics on nightmare are "kite the guys with your mage".

    This is not tactical rpg, this is Dragon Effect...

  • @FeuerFremder your such a party pooper i like this game and it don't matter how many times you say it sucks im still gona play it prob more then 4 times over and im gona get all the DLCs its one of those cases of

    "i don't give a fuck about your opinion"

  • @GodHatesEmoz then you haven't played good games yet.

  • @WillyWallace100 wow i made this comment 2 months ago how much of a life do you have looking for it -.-

  • @GodHatesEmoz i saw it rather easy.

  • @WillyWallace100 that still doesent change the fact you looked through comment rather far back to to bitch at someone -.-

  • @WillyWallace100 stop being such a downer and comenting to people to piss them off you rilly are a sucky perdon or got no life get out side and go for a run guy.

  • @GodHatesEmoz Ikr? I like the scale of Origins better and I play on xbox, the supposedly "inferior" edition of the game

  • @TDime117 i have no idea if you agreeing with me or bitching at me -.-

  • @GodHatesEmoz Idiot, the game is terrible your 6 likes don't count for shit.

  • @Mr94T where are all the people that agree with you dip shit shut you mouth cus no one cares what you think have a nice day

  • @GodHatesEmoz Your manner of speech proves how much your comment doesn't count for shit, this game was blatently made to milk more money out of people because it had such good hopes but failed.

  • @Mr94T you where the one cursing and swearing at me first now your just going to contradict your self and try to be all mine mannered and lots of people like it and play it i am one of them you get out what you put into it and quite frankly i could not care less about your opinion and im sure others would agree with me

  • @GodHatesEmoz

    You seem pretty sensitive for one who does not care.

    There are lots and lots of people who are disappointed - and the fact you don't like their criticism doesn't make you absolutely right about this game.

  • @acroamaticeeore at what point did i say im right your wrong all i said was i liked this game people agreed with me ans then a bunch of idiots like you started bitching at me

  • Comment removed

  • @desalanblades you looked through 6 months of comments to bitch at me wow do you have a fucking life at all dude?

  • @desalanblades oh fuck where to start you are calling my rude when you used the word fuck, homo, gay, fag evey other word, zelot is not even a real english word, you called me sidel when sidel is a manufacturing company providing solutions for packaging liquid foods, and what does my username have anything to do with the video or the game and in your flam fit you never said anything about this game and i do have a goal in life i was simply makeing a comment and people started flaming at me

  • @GodHatesEmoz i got a problem with the story, and i cant really play games that have no story for some reason D:

  • @romandoggie i think the story is amazing i mean yea its not as well "Epic" as DAO lol the story in that one was save the world but this has a nice touch its one of them someone that was a no one to everyone can become on of the most important people there i think its kinda cool but yes i did have some problems with it but over all it was a really good story

  • @GodHatesEmoz FUCK YOU ALL GODHATES EMOZ IF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR DEATH TO AMERICANS AND NIGGERS!

  • Dragon Ago 2 is to short.... and the messed the gameplay up.. Dragon age 1 is 100times better. Dont buy this game.

  • i missed old orge.. way sooo much better

  • dey remade the qunari

  • The video mentions a lycanthrope character, but I can't find any references on google. Who is this mysterious lycanthrope character?

  • how do get the armour hawk wears on the trailers?

  • @SaNtOsLeOsTv the armor that hawk wears is the default mage gear

  • Jade Empire probably had the best battle system.

  • Watch me BEAT Dragon Age 2!! Bring a towel... I MAY get excited! haha :D

  • Origins RULZ

  • itunes_Playstationnetwork_targ­etgift_Playstationnetwork_itun­es� codes-emailed-to-you!-VisitMyC­hannel

  • this game is very for a game that u can't even jump :P xD

  • This Pegi i hear she's 18.

  • His walk at the end is completely Bad Ass

  • @Coekieboy I play blakops and dragon age and i beat it so idk what your talking about hhaahaha

  • I LOVE it!! can't wait for the game to come out.. only 2 days :X

  • People seem to confuse "flashy moves" with "it's not tactical".

    Ffs, people, the game is still as tactical as DAO; the moves are just spiced up a bit. Nothing wrong with that.

  • @Bull3pr00f so right mate

  • @Bull3pr00f well said, sir. The combat is so satisfying

  • @Bull3pr00f pfff, you know shit.

  • @Bull3pr00f oh really, then why the fuck did only had to spam the hell out a button to win 80 percent of the game?.

    now fuck off, cocksucker

  • @Bull3pr00f Yeeeeeeeeeeeah, no. I played the game on PC, and it sucks.

  • @Bull3pr00f Oh yea tactical indeed...you have to press dfferent skills"n"stuff :))

  • @floopsie666 srry can't agree with u I mean I'm playing origins right now in prep for da2 and when I played the demo for da2 I found it very tactical maybe that's because I tried different style of weapons and used my other types of attacks. And buffs I mean yeah u can button mash but I actually tried to use every thing in the demo I love origins it's one of my fav games but this is not 1995 it 2011 u can't have a dice roll based rpg anymore it runs to slow I just was in the bathroom for 10min

  • I wasn't sure if I'd like it or not, but the demo is fucking awesome =D

  • I hope they don't fuck it up

  • @AssasinOfBrotherhood hey be carful how many times u mention that that game is street dated if whatever system ur playing on figures it out it could come back to cost ur friend his job. But have fun with ur headstart on a great game

  • @emmaloongamer that was a good one lol but I don't think in the dragon age universe they even know about stds yet there world is much like our middle ages but still that was a good one lol.

  • this game is fucking awesome,i got it for my 360 early at my trusty friend who works at a video game store,damn this game is incredibly amazing.its both similar to the first dragon age and it's also similar to mass effect 1 and 2..bioware hasn't failed yet on me..nice work guys,can't wait for dragon age 3 and mass effect 3

  • So THIS is what an orgasm feels like...

  • aren't they afraid of getting aids with all that blood on them

  • Origins was an amazing game. Hands down the best fantasy rpg Ive ever played. Mass Effect/ME2 is hands down the best scifi rpg/fps whatever you want to call it Ive ever played. There were only 2 things i wished DAO had, and the have put both of those from ME into DA2. TALKING dialog. It really does make a difference (imho). DAO's tactics were great. However even using tactics the combat just took way too long. The fluid motions of the new combat coupled with the tactics felt way more fun to me.

  • @TranceEmotion I tried to enjoy Origins but the controls were just so damn awkward. I was told that it was a lot better on PC and after playing it on the 360 I have to say that I see where it would be easier. I paid for the game brand new and so I was not willing to go out and buy the PC version just because the controls were better. But I downloaded the demo for DA2 and... wow. I just bought the game today and will be pulling an all-nighter.

  • @TranceEmotion

    Now if only they kept the finishers from Origins. I've played through the game twice and I have seen no finishers except for cenimatics for certain bosses.

  • @TranceEmotion you HAVE to try Baldur's Gate series only IF you aren't a graphics fanatic. Developed by Bioware and offers a real open world environment that differs from Origins. You can do ANYTHING. Including slaughtering a small village only to have guards hound you non-stop everytime you enter a civilized area. You attain a reputation that is not only limited to party members but also to the rest of the world.

  • That dudes beard is the thinnest, patchiest, nastieset thing I've even seen. He's gotta be in denial....

  • Why watch and comment if you hate the series? Do you think your opinion matters to die-hard DA fans? just go play some final fantasy

  • *want that game now* ^^

  • @dragonbukid how long did u play the demo for u have that power for like five min and then it's all striped away from u u start back at level one and in dragon age origins 30 min in unless u did what I did and mass lvl with the whole dark spawn blood mission everybody knows ur a grey warden u have a huge bounty on ur head dragon age 2 is about building urself up to that legendary status yes u know ur gonna be the champion of Kirkwall the real point is how do u get there it's sorta like halo rea

  • please dont turn into mass effect 2 dragon age..... please..

  • @UndiscoveredVirus, lol what was wrong with Mass Effect 2? I know it was greatly different, but it was still awesome. It's Bioware man, all will be well :D

  • @reaperdude72 dont get me wrong mass effect 2 is a good game i just dont want it to become the same game but medieval.

  • mage please? x)

  • Really want to get the weapon at 4:23 mages will anihalate everything!

  • Only few more days and I can thank myself for not spending my money on anything useless! :D

  • guys only 6 more days........i played the demo 10000 times!!! i can't w8 for the real thing:X

  • @petruseluci What you do isn't any of my buisness, but I try and play the demo under 5 times, to save all my excitement for the real thing. I did exactly that, play the demo to much, then get the game then find myself in dissapointment. "I've done this a already, this is kinda boring..."

    I regret what I had done to this very day. XD

    -Ryan

  • Bioware has to be THE BEST RPG GAME DEVELOPER OF ALL TIME!!!!

  • @m1m1kall Either them or Bethesda.

  • I saw Alistair! <3 Squeeee~

    I really can't wait for DA2. But I'm broke and have to wait for it to drop in price. ._. I need a job. Dx

  • @SayaHimitsuzukiBFA Just sell crap on Ebay like I do, makes me more than enough money to buy all the latest releases.

  • @SayaHimitsuzukiBFA dude i doubt this game will be dropping in price anytime soon lol

  • thumbs up if you pre-ordered this game

  • this game is gonna be sooooo much better than origins

  • i really like the pause option

  • they finally talk

  • It's just a demo, but I think it's awesome. Of course it's not a pure-blood RPG, but I don't really mind since the action is pretty intense and there's still lot's of strategy involved, as far as I can see in the demo.

  • Don't whant to be a hater or anything, but I fear bioware is making DA more for the masses rather than making an original ,well though game. He says that they dont whnat DA to look like a chess game.. Are you kidding me? In origins battles were the best part: you had to be stratygic and know a few thnigs.It was hard ,but after a long battle you could be realy proud of yourslef. At first,after DA2 demo the feeling was WOW. But when 3 time playing I realised that all moves were ridicously fast...

  • oh i cant wait to play as Shepard in Dragon Age 2. . . sorry i meant Hawke, wait, was Hawke in Mass Effect?, just kidding, i look at the main character and the most i see is a Dragon Age version of Shepard

  • @dragonbukid

    yeah u haven't played the demo then jackass, lots of differences this game isn't similiar to mass effect in any way besides the dialogue wheel which is much more improved over the mass effect 2 version

  • @darkspineshadow12345 well jackass, i didnt rant about the demo, what i said that da2 kinda receded back to the "chosen one" concept where the main char is a demigod, in DAO yes you are a chosen one not because u were born as such, but because all the other chosen one candidates are either dead or have low self-esteem, in DAO no one will recognize u as a chosen one, until the mid part of the game, and u have to tell them ure a grey warden first, thats a big difference from the main char of DA2

  • @dragonbukid

    I wouldn't saw Hawke is any kind of chosen on at all. Rather he's someone who started as a person with modest power who ROSE to greatness. I don't think it's a case of any star crossed fate so much as it is of someone with an indomitable will.

  • @Mindtweaker2 yes but dont u think the whole idea of having a "set" protagonist, with a "set" name and face is actually a strong testament that they are promoting the transparent "chose one" concept? where as in DAO ur it is up to u to force the esteem into a commoner dwarf or an elven scoundrel, in DAO i never felt my player being the chosen one, until i've made progress, in DAO, i think it's not about being the hero and all, rather, its about ur party as the grey wardens

  • @dragonbukid Well they aren't doing a set set name and face. At least not set first name. The face is customizable, the name is so that they can do a more dialogue and character driven story, not unlike Mass Effect. I can see where you're coming from, believe me, but I don't think this'll take away from the game.

    My stance is this. Bioware has, in my experience, yet to put out a bad game. I'm gonna trust them with this one until I experience it.

  • @trum4n6969 yeah, i guess Bioware's never failed anyone before, we'll just have to wait

  • This is an awesome game but the voice acting is kin
