    I thought Dragon Age was surprisingly bad.

    Story wise sure, pretty interesting. But I seriously hated all the mechanics. Down to there not being a lot of health potions to buy. They never seemed to restock. I could have made my own but that was not something I should have been forced to realize half way through the game. Basically replaying a lot of fights just so I lowered my potion consumption. Always near broke.

    A lot of fights that were perfectly unwinnable until you managed to bug the AI out, or it suddenly worked on the sixth try for no apparent reason. Blood mage in that house in the town. Not winnable until he got stuck in a door. No way it was.

    ...okay, sorry, but not even considering making potions is p dumb

    How was I supposed to guess that crafting was almost required in this game, when stores usually have a replenishing supply of potions? That you can usually buy with your vast fortune. The fortune that was not in this game either.

    ...the first time you replayed a fight to lower your potion consumption, you nitwit!

    My reasoning was this:
    Hmm there's not too many potions here. Never mind, I bet there are a huge deal to buy in the capitol city.

    Much later: Oh hey potions, buy buy buy.

    Even more later: Oh hey, they're fresh out of potions.

    They would have had to explicitly tell me to pick flowers if the one way to play the game as a non mage required picking flowers.

    Really though they took the novelty of some of their earlier work and let it go too far.

    This weather we're having in the US is ridiculous. It's been in the mid 80s all week even though it's fucking March! All the plants, trees and bugs are going full springtime already.

    there are zombie orcs everywhere, honk, and you expect the economy to function smoothly?

    healing potions were probably really expensive things that you bought one bottle of for the family and used tiny drops of it to cure diseases and saved it for major injuries

    and then you come along and you're all "I'll have the lot. When will you have more?"

    Nope! That's not how mixing/engineering works!

    I am going to invent something that does frequency analysis of a multitrack recording and applies dynamic many-tap filters to each track, doing a least squares solution for flat power spectral density. It is going to sound FAT and surgical and lifeless and cheesy and it will take over the world of mixing like some sort of comic sans autotune monstrosity.

    Meh. If they run out they can just pick flowers.

    I wonder when there will come a game where people just straight up give you potions for free because you're saving the world/galaxy.

    The best thing in Dragon Age was the conversation option [Kill with knife] that showed up in ALMOST every single conversation in the game.

    That was ridiculously difficult to get tired of.

    Should have been implemented more often for lazy shopkeepers though.
