A much better cast than the first game, although two characters are very annoying, one completely butchered from the previous game's expansion. Sarcastic femHawke is probably the best protagonist of all time. Combat can look cool but will also grate after a while, as waves of enemies just spawn in seemingly endlessly. Headbutting your desk is more fun than playing a Warrior. Technically not very impressive; the reuse of dungeon layout is very disappointing, considering they didn't have to do any extra work on the main hub, Kirkwall. The idea of focusing your story on a character arc and seeing them grow throughout the years is pretty neat, but the story doesn't do quite enough with it, and it can struggle to connect to the real main plot that goes on in this game.
