She said she loved Dragon Age 2 in this review. That was enough to know I can't completely trust her judgment.

That "Hi guys!" clinches it.
Horrible writing.
What is this, a sitcom?

Ashe is the best and her reviews are honest and trustworthy. She nailed all the actual important issues, and I'm glad someone finally did. She doesn't just bash/praise something because it's the cool thing to do. Excellent review!

I didn't know what to expect since she os one of the Bioware specific content YTbers,but I found her review very objective ,well thought out and she acknowledged the misgivings and issues of the games and didn't overall seem to judge it with rose tinted glasses...I appreciate that.

Her review is pretty spot on. I like the point she made that this is not ME 4 but a different experience all together in the ME universe.

Can someone elaborate this? Could be the many call-backs to other BioWare franchises and the original trilogy that could be lost to the gamers who didn't play those.

Can someone elaborate this? I took it as meaning that the trilogy references and small easter eggs felt a bit shoehorned?Forced? I think she meant they cpuld have been done a bit better?

Interesting that she doesn't feel "Ryder is her Ryder" when "my Ryder" is the first time I feel like the character is "my character". I have never been attached to my protagonist character like that before. I just related so much with it than previous BioWare protagonists (when using emotional/casual, I need to do another playthrough for logical/professional).

Disappointing review, Ashe talks like a politician so can not trust what she says. Ashe should make another review and tell us what her true feelings are.

Disappointing review, Ash talks like a politician so can not trust what she says. Ash should make another review and tell us what her true feelings are. That's her journalistic approach of review. Tonight she's doing the uncensored version on Twitch for anyone interested. Will link the archive on the first post once I get my hands on hte URL.

DA2 was my first real BW game and made me want to play more. Still a fav and special since it started it all for me.

Dragon Age 2 has become something of a classic as the years went on. When i first played it back in 2011, I disliked it, a lot. Now i think its a decent game, ruined mainly by rushed production. Helps to go back from time to time and look at something with different eyes and expectations.

She said she loved Dragon Age 2 in this review. That was enough to know I can't completely trust her judgment. So if she wasn't keen on Dragon Age II, a completely different game and topic, then her judgement would be valid? Regardless of the quality of her points, right? That doesn't sound like flawed reasoning in the slightest.

Now i think its a decent game, ruined mainly by rushed production. Helps to go back from time to time and look at something with different eyes and expectation. Hey, in many ways that's what's art (and, well, life - if one looks at it that way) is for: looking at same things from a new perspective Never stepping twice into the same river. Aside from individual POV of each player influenced by so many things over the years, I'm fairly sure all the reveals in subsequent DA content have also recontextualized a lot of stuff from previous games - and since that story ain't done yet, this will only continue. Bioware likes that kind of storytelling... and it's the main reason why I generally like what they're doing. ...Which makes me wonder how people will look at Andromeda all those years later, when the great many things they've set up now will potentially get realized? I see so many people comparing what is obviously the first game in new series to a finished previous trilogy, so I assume that we may see a lot of "renewed perspectives" of those following the series.
