Dragon Age: Inquisition on PS3 – The DVDfever Review

Conclusion

I am a little conflicted writing this review and just how to go about scoring the game. It is a great game but on the PS3 it feels like the ageing hardware is starting to struggle. It is either that or the developers haven’t ported over with full commitment on the previous generation consoles. With the issues I have outlined in the review it can make you feel a bit disconnected from the world.

Additionally the main story feels less important than the personal stories of the characters you have in your party and smaller arcs you will play through in the areas.

Overall the game is addictive, if extremely buggy.

There is also a Co-Op Multiplayer mode which is played over 3 maps; you start out with a party of 3 other players and are then given objectives at the start to complete within the map. It is pretty good and does add a little extra value to the game. A gripe here, though, is that you can either grind for a good while to upgrade your character or you can purchase platinum with real world currency to speed up the process.

If you have a decent enough PC, Xbox One or PS4 I would say get it for one of those systems (I have also read in other reviews that there are issues on all platforms). I have reached out to Bioware about the issues on Twitter but they did not respond. Maybe I should jump onto their official forums and outline the issues there. When they inevitably fix the game on PS3, then I will have no issues highly recommending it to anyone. In this utterly broken state though it is hard to recommend.

There is plenty content to play through. In the past week I have spent around 70 hours playing this game and have enjoyed the stories it has told. I just can’t get past the bugs that are there. For me personally the controller lag and the stuttering are the things that annoy most, at times stuttering has caused me a migraine and I have had to turn the game off for a few hours to recover.
