Played it recently and honestly its not a good game.
>Gameplay is poorly designed
First the combat, its too easy and braindead for most of the encounter you just watch the game play itself, you may jug a potion or two at worst case scenario to avoid getting injuries, but thats about it.
There is nothing to do in the world besides combat (its bad) and choosing dialogue, lets say you find a crate in the open, you can't use it or do anything with it, you can just loot the junk inside it, thats all.
>Encounters
The encounters are too basic and easy, enemy variety is lackluster and most enemies despite their different names do the same things.
>RPG mechanics
The game has simplified too many things from tabletop in favor of telling a story, the classes and their builds and customization are all shallow and too simple that it might be another ubisoft game
>Level Design
the dungeons and the way the map is designed is too linear, its like a corridor hallway, its impossible to get lost or venture off on the unintended path to find new areas or cool secrets, you just walk in straight line beating the same mobs over and over, no puzzles, no shortcuts and no interesting layout to the level/dungeon
>A.I
The party and enemy A.I is completely retarded, often getting stuck on terrain or failing to prioritize correct target, the allies are retarded and walk into fire to suicide themselves.
>Graphics
Game looks subpar and aged poorly
>Performance
Game is still a buggy mess and crashes way too often, i had many bugs and glitches
>Writing
Despite all the hype i think the writing is just alright, the worldbuilding is neat and there is a lot of effort put into it, but the story is super generic and a lot of the characters act stupid, this is overall its best aspect
>Side Quests
They are awful and shallow, too many fetch quests and they feel pointless and have no impact
>Music
Forgettable which is typical for Bioware, only Mass Effect had good music

Mediocre game

has this 9/10's legacy been tarnished by how every subsequent game in the series has been 5/10 and below?
