Dragon age 2: legacy - GR-review

10:11 PM Posted by Mario Galarza


I have a love-hate relationship with Dragon age 2. While I the new combat system, improved voice acting and story telling love, I found confronted constantly me with disappointment. My colleague GR comrade, Nick Tan, explained it perfectly in his review of commented on the fact that the continuation lacked an origin story for its main character in his (or her) distress investing difficult. Sure, the bedtime story-like plot development provides justification for the absence of such revelation, but it still leaves much left over. The Dragon age 2: legacy DLC is trying to resolve this problem by your character learn more about their family history.

Seeks to the beginning of the year legacy"Cartel" of the Dwarfs Hawkes blood for some mysterious reason, and you need to find out what has to do your family ancestry with these seedy characters. It is advisable for this trip, to bring Varric and your brother/sister together, because both have some attachment to the plot. For the fourth member of squad I decided a cameo Anders in the hope of Justice somewhere, while the mission could do what he did, but it was not as exciting as I had hoped it to be.


Many things in this add-on was for me, but short. It was much more than the main game glitchy on the short game play. I played as a magician, and there were times when I would go, choose a spell to heal and not in the position, choose an ally be. It got annoying.

But a few perks, as always limited it peripheral areas to the claustrophobic city Kirkwall and their leaving. The environments of the prison of Vimmark mountains and grey warden caves of terror are a refreshing change of déjà vu. If you decide to continue the search early in the game, it is a good way of XP and obtain unique weapons, but I would recommend against it. Why? Archers, so is. I'm not sure whether it is just me, but by the enemies in Dragon age 2archers most irritating... and there are a lot of them here.

You'll often find battles in Dragon age 2: legacy wherever you go, only to find an annoying band of three archers are bombarded by a flurry of arrows from the archers, which seem to defeat from the air. It's not how this battle situations are new everything to da2 gameplay; It's just that she have a majority of the first part of form da2: legacy, and it gets old fast. If your character you have built armor and Constitution before Begrinning which quest do not need a hell of a time it undergo. Feel free to try, if you want to, because you are given, return the option in Kirkwall and regroup halfway.

The combat situations are extremely heavy on tactic. If you set the type of person who despises the tactic slots your squad mates and prefers, all standard kamikaze go, this may be not the DLC for you. It is rarely a confrontation, where you can get not pwned like a newb within the first minute if you don't find a suitable place to make a stand.

A remedy to the addition of complicated trap systems is integrated into the environment. Enable Shaver death or piece of metal spinning top from the bottom with switch to in the game.  You deal with a large amount of damage, but the disadvantages are that your colleagues can get death squad members hurt by them. Sometimes they are easily visible and accessible, and they are hidden from other times stairs up or in corners. Often I found myself their only to find a room of the difficult opponents, one of these switches and to think, "Gee, that beautiful, have five minutes would have been."


In the second half, legacy has this trap switch, but it's completely revised versions of Darkspawn have introduced Dragon age: origins. The Genlocks are about three times as large as in the original game and look like demonic gorillas with oversized arms to help you to drive. Genlock Alpha have gigantic shields, that it was Battering Rams, which I thought using a nice touch.

The one thing I have da2 props for, all that really separates the fight and attacks, but this is to equip various unique through them with special weapons styles of the enemy is this from other side quests. The unique thing about the boss is the story behind his character. Sure he is in the sense that he has a major attack, which can destroy your entire Squad, if it is not difficult, but also every other boss in Dragon age 2.

DLC is a great way for businesses, a couple of extra bucks, but in essence all legacy gives us a new weapon, a tiny glimpse into our main character and revised versions of Darkspawn enemies. If you are a Completionist, I see little to spend your precious needed on this.

C+Revolution in the report card + powerful new weapon. + Story sheds light on Hawke's family history-... but no epic revelation. +/-Use enviornment fall can be fun. -a bit expensive for what you get.
