Operation Backlog: Update 4 - Archdemon down
By datarez 1 Comments
Dragon Age is done. 40 hours on this playthrough but over 60 on the game. I had an issue with my EA account right around the time Mass Effect 2 came out where my EA account was pointing to my hotmail instead of my gmail address. I was adding DLC on the EA website through my gmail but on my 360 with my hotmail apparently. When I switched everything over to my gmail account I then had a 20 hour game save that wouldn't load because it was missing DLC that was tied to my hotmail address. That left me kind of bitter and I didn't play the game again for most of a year.
It was a great game so I knew I wanted to get to it early in Operation Backlog. One thing I realized is due to the scope of these types of games they are always going to have some pretty glaring flaws. It's just impossible to make a perfect role playing game and still give it a long epic scope. Dragon Age was a miss on the combat, graphics and the generic fantasy background. Oblivion was a miss on the auto leveling AI enemies and a lackluster main plot. Fable II had a miss with the lackluster story. Not to say I don't enjoy all of these games. It's just that I'm probably a lot more forgiving of this genre now after this realization.
Bring on the next one. Only 27 more games to go!
