You avoid buying games from download services over an incident that happened once, was immediately reversed, and is unlikely to happen often, if ever again?  :huh:
Your being allowed to play the games you supposidely own is reliant on logging in to some internet service.
You need an internet connection with the boxed version.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Replaying it on hard.  I am a completist, and I hate that I failed to get four of the achievements, including the Romance one.  WTF?
It's tough.  How did you defeat the High Dragon and his gazilions smallish dragons that destroyed your mine?

Btw, it's nice to know that dragons are extinct in this universe.  I can't imagine what it was when dragons where a common sight.  Fuck, with DA:O and this one, how many dragons did we face?  3-4 high dragons?  An hundred of the small ones?

:yes:

Which is annoying. In my internet-less life in SF, it was pretty annoying to have to go out and download a crack just to use a game I'd purchased.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

But it must stop pirates or they wouldn't bother with it, right?  :hmm:

High Dragon?  I switched difficulty to Casual for that fight.  :D

I agree.  My point was simply that there's not much difference between Steam&co and box versions of a game.  Both now requires an internet connection to start the game.  After that, you can play without it.

I feel encouraged. :(

No, I let him go.  Apparently, he'll come back for the final fight.

I let him go, too.  What a dick move on his part, though.  I knew that fucker was trouble from the time he named his cat Ser Pounce-A-Lot.  Sooper ghey.

If you play Witch Hunt (wich isn't a great DLC in its own, though), there are a few fun references to Anders when you visit the Circle, one involving Ser Pounce a Lot :D

DA II was great in it's own way, trying to prevent the various factions from gnawing Kirkwall down to bone and gristle. But the only reason I sided with those fucking mages at the end was because of Bethany. So now I'm the Lincoln of mages?

Fuck you, I want mages to be kept under close watch by the templars in proper Circles to be trotted out for the occaisonal Qunari invasion/Blight.

Yes.

Mages aren't quite the "I win" class they were in DA:O but not exactly nerfed.
