And that game kinda sucked compared to 1 and 2, especially 1 imo. Bioware has been on a long and steady decline. Mass effect and the two first DA games have kept them going but it has just been miss after miss for a long time now.

2 is the best, 1 isn't worth replaying nowadays it sucks.

I replayed 1 recently and I think it still holds up pretty well, as long as you accept that it is a product of its time.

I played it last year and couldn't even finish it, janky, dated and just didnt hit the same and didn't enjoy it, skipped to DA2 and reminded myself why i love it despite its issues.

Yeah and that is fair enough, games age and times change so that can make going back feel more difficult, but honestly for me it is still a great game even today but you do have to go in knowing that it isn't going to control how you would like or look like a modern game and it's not going to have a lot of the QoL features that have became ubiquitous over time.

I'm personally not against a game having a bit of friction, in fact most of my favourite games of all time intentionally do so, but I can understand why some people would not like that and decide that they don't want to play games like that.

I just can't handle too much jank to em, age isn't always the issue, theres probably mods and stuff to make DAO run better on pc but i never looked into it, same year as og MW2, L4D2, AC2 and arkham asylum, most of which I've played in the last couple year and do think hold up well despite being 17 years old which definitely doesnt make me feel like an old man or anything...
