Yup was many years ago, I vaguely remembered liking Dragon Age the first one... Especially really liking Morigan... Man that voice... Love Claudia black(didnt know it was her at that time)... I didnt remember DA2 that much, didnt have much connection, just played the game, think I enjoyed it but nothing earth shattering. DAI was ok as well, no biggie... Didnt connect with the inquisitor as well... Actually the name turns me off a little, some negativity at the back of my head linking it to the Spanish inquisition and the pain they inflicted in the name of religion. Just like if there's another game and my title is Führer, the entire game could be about something else killing dragons, slaying demons, but at the back of my mind it reminds me of Hit*ler(why is his name censored by this board? It's not a vulgarity lol... It's history...), same title and all... Maybe I am jusr weird, wrings a little crossed...lol...
Heh, well frame of reference does matter. When I hear the Spanish Inquisition, my first reference is Monthy Python. And well I've played Warhammer 40k a lot so Inquisitors also there have a much different meaning. Still, I also didn't connect to the character in DA:I either just for different reasons.
DA:2 I played a lot more and I did like it but the game did have some major issues about travelling and zones just being copy/paste. I remember that for sure. Still the story was more interesting still than DA:I. I still think the original one is the best.
It's interesting to me, because one could argue that if it's the first game you played it has a special meaning and that's true, but for Mass Effect it's 2 and 3 I still play and not 1.
But I'm with you on that a single reference or connotation can really ruin a game.
So maybe you're not the only weird one here hehe.
