What did you think of Dragon Age 2?

So I haven't played the first Dragon Age, and Dragon Age 2 looks cool, but I don't know. I've heard people say that it's not as good as the first one, but I wouldn't know that since I haven't played either one of them. So what did YOU think about Dragon Age 2?What did you think of Dragon Age 2?
It's true that DA2 doesn't quite live up to the original. This is where most of the criticism comes from. But if you judge it on it's own merit it is a fun game. I enjoyed it a lot and there are some things such as combat and character interaction that is much improved. If you are a fan of fantasy RPGs and appreciate a good story you will like this game.What did you think of Dragon Age 2?
I mean, depending on what your aiming for, graphics, gameplay, storyline, skills, items, etc. the second one's good, but the first one had more excitement cuz it was original, the second one was good, but to me, it felt like the first one was better because i hadn't expected it. and also dragon age 1 origins and dragon age 1 origins awakening are different too so you got to think about 3 of them :p, look online of the differences between the 3 and look at some youtube vids or something, you'll prob get a better idea of which one you wanna buyWhat did you think of Dragon Age 2?
It was pretty good. I didnt get to beat it because it got to hard. The graphics are good, combat is pretty good and the storyline is great. I actually liked DA 2 better than DA 1.
