Thedas opens up wide, its plains, its dragons, its choices that weigh on you. Dragon Age: Inquisition invites you to carry a cause on your shoulders.

The profile paints a game of companionship above all. Connection climbs ahead of 85% of games, controller feel rises even higher, and rediscovery follows in the upper range. Fun and desert island stay solid, around the top third. The soundtrack holds a fair middle. One off note: the art style drops below average, which surprises for a BioWare. To take with real caution, since almost every criterion rests on just one or two votes, so all of this remains a first read.

In the grand tradition of the western RPG, this is a game that bets on the long haul, the bonds with your companions and the weight of decisions, more than on the immediate visual punch.

So, for who? For you if you love settling into a world for a long time and growing attached to a team you end up defending. Much less if you mainly want art direction that takes your breath away from the start.
