I don’t have a Steam Deck, but I’d imagine it has something to do with Windows or anti-cheat software of some sort. It looks like many of the Raiden series are not Deck Verified…
Is there any way to read Game Internet online now (archive or whatever)?
I’d really love to check out the Vampire Survivors interview from the final issue.
At this point I think our best option may be a spiritual successor by a different, but passionate, dev team. Not that Rockstar couldn’t knock it out of the park, its just that it feels like Rockstar is interested in proven money makers than doing anything real different.
I’m pretty okay with that, actually, as long as the writing and character interactions/development are still there. The ending of Inquisition had me hollering and instantly clamoring for a sequel so fingers crossed.
Dragon age as a franchise showed promise when it was an actual modern take on a CRPG.
Ever since DA2 it became worthless, casualized dreck gameplay attached to a story written by and for a very specific californian millennial crowd and, frankly, they can keep it.
oh no I love all the games. i know there’s a lot of “Origins purists” that love to trash talk any game in the franchise that isn’t origins, but most of us love all the games. for different reasons.
i sincerely hope you have branched out to other games that were more like Origins in the years since it’s been out. and I hope you’ve found ones you like.
I came into origins because it was in a branch I liked, so yeah, I have eaten well in the past and there’s more than enough for me to keep eating well for a good long time.
To me it’s mostly the obvious lack of care of DA2 towards the lore and even the internal consistency of the world and characters in that same game that made me acutely aware of the downfall of BioWare.
I’ve since moved on to other things. Mostly indie stuff, and stuff like BG3 which is much more in my general direction.
I’ll miss OG BioWare (Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2 BioWare, to clarify) but I’ll live.
I love BG3 as well. They’re all great games. and Dragon Age 2 has a special place in my heart. I love how the combat and focus changed to one specific city. It made me appreciate the day/night design and the stories (for good or bad) that took place there.
I just have noticed a trend of Origins people that come into any dragon age thread just to talk smack, and I think it’d probably be better to just play a game you like instead of focusing on how much you hate ones you don’t. ya know? especially considering how excited people are for the new game.
There’s always more games of a genre to play. And Origins is fantastic. I always recommend new Dragon Age players start at Origins and play all the way through Inquisition for the full experience.

Eh, there’s plenty of time to do both and the games are absolutely worthy of a good thrashing.
I am annoyed at them because they show an utter disregard for the user’s time and money. I wanted to like them, and I was exceedingly disappointed in the product.

Are they? All I’ve seen is suspiciously defensive articles about BG3 comparisons not being fair (despite DA having the full might of EA and the >!soulless husk of the!< company that made BG1 and 2 at its helm) and shittons of astroturf and fluff pieces.
You are the first person who openly calls themselves a DA2 fan I run into in the wild.
I have 0 expectations or hopes for it. Hope some people find it fun, I personally have such a backlog of good games from trustworthy and beloved developers that the only way I'm going to get this is on a 80% discount in a few years, if ever.
