Mass Effect and Dragon Age also Biowares other games.

Yeah would agree with Andy, it's no game you want to rush & depends if you want to do some side stuff & dlc.

@Andy I dread to see how such a big game run's on last gen, going to be a few loading times. Not sure if I want multiplayer though that's been announced but pleased it's own thing.

Yeah if Lego Marvel ran as poorly as it did I really wouldn't fancy Inquisition! As for the multiplayer it's the same dealio as ME3 so I'm well up for that. It definitely has a lot of potential and I know I'll be hooked on trying to unlock all the races/classes. Hope they support it as well as they did on 3, playable Darkspawn please!

ME3 you kinda had to do MP because of your readiness but on DA:I MP doesn't affect SP but does sound a cool mode, it's a abit like diablo trying to get new loot and only being-able use at certain levels & classes but didn't like the sound there will be microtransactions if you want.

But ME3 didn't need it at all, I got plenty of readiness without doing a single match. It just helped to raise a percentage bar. As for microtransactions I'm imagining they will be exactly the same as in ME3, people worry too much about microtransactions.

I'd probably say about 20 hours for a good playthrough. You can sprint through the game in probably half that, maybe less, but to get a good amount done that's what I'd say.

That sounds about the exact amount of game time I'll have before it might clash with anything. Looks like mass effect will be the next game on my to do list!

Woo Bioware have said Dragon Age: Inquisition true home is PC which I hope means the way it plays and not just looks.

Are you in the Keep beta Mas? I'm waiting for it to go live today!

No I am not, didn't even know there was a beta I guess it's for the multiplayer.

No Keep is the file importish thing that lets you mark/carry over you decisions from the previous games and their dlc.

Ohh well as I've not a had a 360 for what will be 2 years now and I'm now on PlayStation, I don't think it's something I can use. Unless you can make choices again like if you hadn't of played the first two.

Yeah it's designed for people that haven't played it/have played it on a different platform in the past. The sync is down so I went through and made the choices I think I made last night, will be good to see what happens when I do get the sync.

Sync kinda worked for me, trophy list is up all single player yay but none seem to be romance which is odd for bioware.

Yeah it's up now, I was pretty happy with the file I created though so I'm sticking with that. Fortunately I used default names/appearances anyway so that bit wasn't even wrong

My character etc was there but not all my choices and none of the achievements seems to unlock.

The achievements thing is odd, you do have your origin tied to your gamertag right?
All of my trophies showed up, though a lot of the special awards didn't on account of me not being around to receive them at the time.

I think so as it knew my character of Topher the City Elf and my other's like Zowey the rouge noble.

Reviews are in and it's sounding bloody brilliant. It's gonna be a long week and 3 days...

It does, glad I've got the week off for it.

Andy and anyone else going to play as

I haven't decided class yet, I'll go Human Male first time though. My main playthrough of 1&2 was a rogue but I quite fancy breaking that habit.

I'm thinking female elf rogue.

So I started the game yesterday as my female elf rogue which strangely looks like a cross between Scarlett Johansson & Zooey Deschanel but main reason I want to go as a female as I can romance Sera which I think will be a laugh.

I've just passed 7hrs and in any other game I would be coming up to done or at least half way but this I've barely scratched the surface, I know I've only got to more companions to get my team is likely to be Sera, Viv and Iron Bull so got a bit of everything.

It's been excellent so far but I am missing stuff from the first one but a long way to go, now to go recruit some Mages.

How you doing Andy as I think only you playing.

I'm currently 30 hours in as a male, human warrior and I absolutely love it! Aside from the loss of auto attack everything about the game just seems bigger and better. I love every single party member so I'm switching them around pretty regularly, currently the only real standout party member is Dorian for his necromancer powers.
Cannot put this game down and this work week will be long and painful because of it.

I'm off for a week, so will be playing all week well in till Friday when Pokemon & SMASH turn up.
