Dragon Age II (2011)
Genres:Role-playing (RPG), Adventure
Themes:Action, Fantasy
Game modes:Single player
Story:Dragon Age II is the sequel to Dragon Age: Origins and the second major game in the series. Like its predecessor, players can explore and engage in combat from a third-person perspective and will also encounter various companions who play major roles in the plot and gameplay. Depending on players' decisions and dialogue, a companion will either recognize the main character Hawke as a friend or a rival. The game adopts the wheel-based dialogue system, meaning short responses that reflect different tones and attitudes the player wishes to choose for Hawke. The combat system is quite similar to the one used in the previous Dragon Age game, though it has been noticeably sped up.Show more

(Sarcastic) Hawke is my favourite character from a game with character creator. Specific humour sarcastic Hawkes have is something special and unique. Their voice acting (both male and female) is top notch and even default presets for both characters are amazing (never before and after have I played a default version if I could make my own). Also, it would be amazing to have both DA:O and DA2 on GOG.
I remember watching a Let's Play of "Dragon Age: Origins" and wanting to play the next game myself. Sadly, the first title had no demo so I wound up finishing a Let's Play while trying to see if the game was for me. I got the demo for "Dragon Age 2". I recommend that GOG get this one if they do bring the full game on here. I felt like I was taking crazy pills with Darkspawn suddenly looking like the Joker's minions. The simple dialogue tree had been changed to resemble the dialogue wheel from "Mass Effect" and even in the demo I had no clue of what my character was talking about or what I was about to say based on the lines that were given to me. They changed what characters like Isabella (who is in the first game) and Flemeth looked like. You're telling me that Flemeth dressed like that before the Grey Warden returned to kill her? I was hoping that they'd right the ship after player feedback but the demo was a good indication of what to expect. A more action-oriented approach to combat and changing everything else for the worse. People in 2025 seem to have forgotten that a lot of the problems currently attributed to "Dragon Age 4" can also be attributed to this title but I have no rose-tinted glasses. In terms of race customization this game is even worse. People refer to this game's protagonist as Hawke and not "The Champion" in the same vein as "The Grey Warden" as they do the previous game because you cannot play as anyone else. You can't be an elf from a Dalish tribe or a dwarf mercenary who fought at the Battle of Ostagar.
You can already find the demo for this game online. Play the demo and see if the game still holds up for you. I will say this, the legal notice was very short so I could quickly get to the gameplay. That was very nice. My most positive experience with the demo and something that I unironically think that more developers/publishers should emulate.
I've been following the Dragon Age series since its beginnings in late 2009. I first played Origins in early 2010 and since then, it's become my most played game of all time.
But... despite not getting to properly play it until 2015, DA2 is definitely my favourite in the series. It's such a comforting game to me and I replay it every year. It has great characters (for the most part), good music, a charming art style and gameplay that isn't overly complicated. On top of it all, this game is very special to me because Anders's romance with Male Hawke helped me figure out my identity i.e. who I am.
I want it on GOG, because EA App is a horrible launcher and I want to deal with less hassles just to play a game I love.
Das Spiel hatte noch das, was den Biowarezauber ausmachte, und für mich auch das wichtigste. Gute Gefährten und eine richtig gute Story. Und vor allem einen Protagonisten den ich geliebt habe. All das, wofür man das Spiel kritisierte, das Maprecycling etc. ist unter Anbetracht dessen, dass sie weniger als 2 Jahre bekamen, um das Spiel rauszubringen, absolut nebensächlich. Sie haben die Zeit richtig genutzt Story/Charaktere sind wichtiger als Mapdesign. Andersrum wäre es schlimmer gewesen. Wenn ich mir manchmal vorstelle was Dragon Age 2 hätte sein können, hätte man Bioware nicht gedrängelt, sagen wir mit vielleicht 4-5 Jahren Entwicklungszeit,... oh man... - Ich wäre sehr froh wenn ich dieses bei einigen wohl verkannte Juwel meiner GOG-Bibliothek hinzufügen könnte.
The recent event involving a person with the same name as a character from another game reminded me of Anders from Dragon Age II. Ander’s story, and the core conflict behind it that is presented in the game, has always been a source of intense debate in the fandom, but no one can argue that it does not invite us to some serious thinking, now more than ever in the current political environment.
I sure think about many things in this game a lot. The scope of this game is small, but it’s the perfect setup for a fantastically written story with exceptional characters. This game means a lot to me and to many others. It’s a timeless gem that deserves to be preserved.
