Just finished DA2 (Spoilers) ... Posted by: Motar 18:29:16 10-20-2007 |
... So here are my thoughts on it.
In general, a great game. Like the little banner at the bottom of the home page of this site says, "The most complete TK experience to date" (or something like that). Though complete, it was very, very difficult (at least for me), and I had to pause quite a few times during the game to do considerable leveling up. I was a tad disappointed with the character development, though: Brash was rather shallow and we don't really see much of his personality (besides being literally brash), and the rest of the characters really weren't developed much (I was hoping that would happen with some of the other Omega Class soldiers). Also, the Darek/Darken thing was a bit predictable; I was almost positive Darek was Darken the first time I saw him...
Now for a few questions (I hope I wasn't too negative with my thoughts):
1. When Marcus tells Brash to go to Cewan about what happened at Knam, does he mean that Cewan knows something specific to help Brash, or just in general knows what is going on with Darek/Darken? (i.e. does Cewan know something we never find out because he dies before Brash can talk to him?)
2. Did all the members of the Omega Class die during the invasion of Zhol? Maybe I just missed them from lack of exploring the castle during the invasion, but I only counted Zack, Giler and Rago dead, leaving the non-elemental guy (forgot his name) and Jesmo to possibly still be alive.
3. I might have just forgotten this, but how exactly does Brash come to be in the care of Marcus? I know Darken made Brash and and all that but I don't remember how Marcus takes him from Darken (or just finds him or whatever).
4. This might be a bit of a stretch, but ... would someone be kind enough to tell me what happens in the real ending (when you kill Hades and Darken)? I uninstalled DA2 after beating it (deleted my save file), and would really like to know how it connects to DAX (or so I've heard). [EDIT]: I actually found my save file and beat Darken on Hard Mode! Yay! (Darken was really hard). This brings up another question...
5. If DAX supposedly takes place on an island in the DAII world, are we to assume that said island is Zhol's continent?
...Phew. That's all, I guess.
