Everyone on this board treats DAO like the holy grail but this game is so bad
>warriors are just the same swinging animation with awesum xd finishing moves
>having to constantly get behind enemies as a dagger rogue
>the game forces you to have either morrigan or wynne in your party at all times cuz mage is fucking broken and some enemy mages will straight up nuke you if you don't immediately mana clash them (i.e zevran encounter)
No it being made in 2009 is not an excuse, why do people act like its prehistoric when it's practically 2010's game.

once you go mage warden you never go back i'm so serious. playing warrior/rogue after mage is a mistake because both of those classes are objectively inferior to mage.

Youโ€™re supposed to solo everything on nightmare as an Arcane Warrior, the companions and tactics menu are misdirection

I tried every origin and stuck with Surana.

I just don't like two of the protagonists being blood-related to each other. It's also the most flexible warden because you aren't connected to any big families, you don't have an implied personality either besides (really good at magic) you're just a random elf kid that got snatched up by templars.

I haven't played DAO in a million years
No idea what you mean by first point
Rogues had a stance that uses both weapons if you didn't want to bother with backstabbing
The game also forces you to have Zevran or Leliana to deal with locks and traps, RPGs forcing classes on players isn't an unique thing to this game

Lock bash mod exists so not really.
