The general quality of games have been poor for awhile now, I 100% agree. Which is why when there actually is a quality game, a game that you can tell a lot of time and effort went into it, I celebrate those games. I understand not everyone is going to like the game or any game, but when you don't like a game I like, you're crazy to me. :p
I like the game I'm just saying it's not the next classic to talk about

If you just play as your character, maybe. But the point is to play as all characters in your party, and to strategize. Also, this is in the early stages of the game, the combat gets better as the game progresses.
They were dead lol
 
I feel the standard for what is a great game/game of the year type quality game has drastically regressed

Playing it now, and there are hella issues

Very Poor game design, buggy as a mess, poor story telling, just a lot of issues.

Don't get me wrong, it's fun and all but it's not the second coming of a classic
Morrowind is a classic.

I want to get a new game, I haven't played anything since Bioshock Infinite.

I am thinking of getting Arkham City or Evil Within.

This mean you don't like me?
My copy of Dragon Age and GTAV (both for PS4) are coming in the mail. I like to take my time with single player games and truly enjoy the experience. Which should I start first? Never played either

I agree 100%. I haven't played Dragon's Age, but it amazes me what gamers find acceptable now: broken, buggy, unfinished games. It will only change when gamers start protesting with their wallets.

I know it's not for everyone, buy the Wii U has been killing it this year with polished, fun AAA games. Mario Kart, Smash, and Bayonetta have all been amazing.

Indeed. Devs are content with releasing buggy shit because they can just patch it and people aren't doing anything about it. :|

Shadow of Mordor looks good if you're thinking of getting Arkham City. The gameplay is like Batman mixed with Assassins Creed with LoTR themed. Watching MANvsGAME play it right now, looks fun.

Otherwise, play Dragon Age. :)

Dragon Age has bugs but broken and unfinished? Lots of exaggerating being done in this thread. Anyway I think it's great but has a lackluster final act, nowhere near Mass Effect 3 or Dragon Age 2 level but it is still disappointing considering how good everything was before it.

Pretty good. Dragon Age 2 has a shitty one.

There is next to none

You customize your spell path but bleh so does every RPGRPG since 1990

You can make weapons and craft things but it's so so so so bleh and poorly designed

Those aspects of the game are poor
 
I'm still waiting to finish my free Dishonored I downloaded from XBL and I have Tomb Raider I bought 2 years ago that I still have to beat, Lol.

As far as you character and their abilities, you have a base of 4 skill trees for each class (Warrior, Rogue, Mage). Within each class, later on you can "specialize" in a certain ability that opens up another skill tree. There's a soft level cap of 20, where in which you get no more ability points when you level up. This means you can't have a Rogue that does everything, you have to specialize to a certain playstyle, which is awesome. Each skill tree is unique, some are more offensive, others defensive, some are more of helping you restore mana/stamina or conjure barriers, and others are for status effects. For example, as a Mage, there's a skill tree for Fire, Ice, Electric, and Spirit. The Spirit is for barriers, mana regen, etc. The staffs have elemental abilities themselves, so if you specialize in Fire, you will want a Fire imbued staff. You don't have to only go down one skill tree, but with limited ability points, you can't just use them wherever. The good thing is, you can buy an amulet that allows for respec, it costs gold but you can buy it as many times as you want, just in case you messed up or wanna try other abilities.

As far as appearance goes, you can alter your face quite a bit at the beginning of the game. The character customization as far as weapons and armor is pretty good as well. You have Armor and Weapons you can find around the world, and its rarity is color coded much like Destiny. You can also craft weapons and armor, which seem to generally be better than what you find around the world. It just depends, there's different tiers of crafted Armor/Weapons, so it it just depends on your level, how far you are into the game, etc. You can also improve your Weapons and Armor. All of this crafting requires materials you either can gather across the world or buy at certain merchants. There's also character and class specific Armor/Weapons. As a Warrior, I cannot use a Dagger, or wear armor that's supposed to be for a Rogue or Mage. Then there's character specific Armor/Weapons. Where only that specific character can wear/use that specific item.
