Stay Gold Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Spent so much time perfecting my character's face, and then I accidentally select the default name for her. Oh man, I'm so bummed. Have to restart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 Yeah... I spent far too long deciding what garden I should have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 God - I still haven't left Skyhold. So much catching up to do. Okay - that was a little lie. I at least went to all the locked doors I found since I now have the deft hands, fine tools perk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assfax Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Now what's the deal with that? Is there anything good in those locked rooms or is it just bullshit you wouldn't even pick up to sell? I've only found two worthwhile loot items in the whole game thus far. Superb Belt of Health and Bianca Arms IV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Loot is mostly random. You will find better stuff as you go on and whenever you beat dragons. Quest items are occasionally in those locked rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 Yeah I found one of those wine bottles and one of the grey warden things behind locked doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 While I really enjoy the game - playing the game on the 360 has made me realize that this game really should have been next gen only. It is a pretty ugly on the 360. As in visually it is stunning but the 360 can barely handle it (lots of tearing, the rendering is really really spotty) I also got a bug last night where the audio completely dropped out (this might be on every version but I feel like it as last-gen problem). Now if it is a bug on my save file - thankfully it happened minutes after a previous safe so I won't be fucked like DA2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Oh there are plenty of bugs. The PS3 & PS4 seemed to have come out of it slightly better than the rest, but there were problems with all of them. There have been two patches already with a third on the way.

The Man Known as Dan Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The sound cutting out big isn't a new one with Bioware titles. I've never once heard the Samara/Morinth confrontation in ME 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS3 & PS4 seemed to have come out of it slightly better than the rest, but there were problems with all of them. There have been two patches already with a third on the way. Yeah, I remember right after I got started on my playthrough I was having my first conversation with Cassandra outside of Haven. I answered one of the questions and the screen just sat there. And sat there. And then sat there some more. I had to physically unplug the PS4 because the PS button on my controller wouldn't work before I could continue. Strangely, the next time I spoke with her I went through the whole conversation without an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 There is a multiplayer event this weekend (I am guessing these are very similar to what used to happen on ME3) I might try it out just to see if I can get a bonus. I am still pissed I missed the first like 4 ME3 ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Needed some "power" to unlock a new area, so I went and closed all the rifts in the Hinterlands, on the Storm Coast, and in Crestwood. Also crafted my first "masterwork," an engraved Greatsword that started at 198 DPS. Popped a demon rune on it to bump it to 218 DPS. I'm going to have to have a couple of sessions of just going around to various places and gathering metals and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Unlocked specializations - now I just have to decide what I am going to pick Killed my first giant - there was one that suddenly started spawning near one of the Forbidden Oasis camps so I decided to take a swing at it and it was fairly easy. Have started doing the "loyalty" missions (or whatever you want to call them). I almost don't want to do Vivienne's because I REALLY don't like her. Oh and when doing Josephine's I took the long way and did Josephine's method instead of using Lelianna's people. That did lead me to banging an old lady where the choice was literally labelled "Carpe Diem". It shouldn't have made me howl with laughter like it did but here we are.

Cristobal Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 It had the heart icon, so I knew that was what it was, but since my character was in a relationship with Josephine, I didn't pick it, as it seemed a bit beside the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eivion Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 The PC version was the one that got it the worst so it makes sense to fix their issues first after the initial patch that was for all versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Finally blasted through "Here Lies the Abyss." That was pretty awesome. This whole damn game is pretty great. Makes me wish I would have stuck with the first one and actually picked up the second one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Bioware finally put hooters into one of their games? Why did this not happen in any of the ME games?
