My brother might have it for 360, if not I don't see myself buying it.  Its not true turn based?


Dragon Age has never been turn based...

Although Origins on PC had more tactile combat to it than the console versions.

DA2 will be the same on all 3.

Seems like too many people to control for it NOT to be turn based.

The game has a pretty neat combat system. You set combat tactics for each of your team members and let the AI do the rest, while you control your main char.

For example you have a mage and you can set 6 different skills/movements in his/her combat slots:

Slot 1: When ally has low life/ when you have low life --> 10/25/50/75% health -->Cast heal/ use health potion <-- This means that when ever an ally has less than 50% life the AI will constantly cast heal. But you could change it to when ever that person has under 25% life she'll use a potion.

Slot 2 Attack enemy --> attack strong opponent first / attack weak opponent --> use fire spell / use lightning spell..

Etc... you start out with only a few but after a while you can have lots of preset tactics that the AI will follow. Basically your team becomes invincible with 2 mages and good tactics.

The combat is as deep as you want it to be.
Like MGS has said, you can essentially program your team to do a very specific thing under very specific circumstances.
Or you can just run in there, balls to wall, LMB spam and everything will be okay for the most part. But once you go later on in the game, it is very much worth it taking the time to sculpt your team.

HOLY CRAP DEMO IS AMAZING.

The combat is incredible... Though perhaps the special abilities are abit overpowered?

it takes 15 hits to kill a normal monster using plain attack as a warrior but one tap of the 2 button and 5 enemies are sliced in half, boom dead.


Graphics were limited to High for me... It says "Some Dx11 features not available"...

But the graphics seemed very good on just high!

Gonna restart and change settings + put fraps on :P
