Dragon Age Inquisition Game Review
The Dragon Age universe is rich with impressively nuanced lore and socio-political intrigue, but Inquisition lacks the heart and pathos of BioWare’s best games.
The previous two releases in the series — and — had choices that carried over from one to the next, but they presented relatively stand-alone stories. Their tales of heroism were roped off to single small corners of a fantasy world whose full size was only hinted at. Is the first true realization of that world. The missions and consequences of them span the whole of the known lands of Dragon Age.
Likewise, many plot points and characters return from previous games. Though it was never sold this way, Inquisition feels like part of a more tightly connected story, like a finale that ties up many of the plot threads previously left hanging. It is at once the culmination of everything Dragon Age has been attempting to accomplish for the last five years and a guarantee that this universe is here to stay for the foreseeable future.

Dragon Age: Inquisition picks up after the events of Dragon Age 2, where the tumultuous relationship between mages and Templars boiled over into a full-on mage rebellion. At the beginning of Inquisition, talks toward a peace treaty are interrupted by a magical explosion, leaving a sole survivor: the player-created main character, who will become known as the Inquisitor. The core of the game's story is taken up by solving the mysteries introduced in this climactic opening event. Why did you survive when no one else did?
