Elmofongo: I felt 2014 was a rather week year in terms of AAA games. I mean so bad that even movie licensed games were praised like Shadow of Mordor and Alien Isolation.
Alien Isolation was excellent though, if you like stealth games.

For me the game of 2014 is Divinity: Original Sin. They invented a new game play style which I am hoping will be followed by many other games in the future.

Dragon Age Origins is an amazing game. After we stoped playing Inquisition, we installed Origins again and started playing.

However, I disagree with the opinion that DA:O is the successor of Baldur's Gate. Why?

1. You have only 3 race. In BG you have 7.
2. There is only 3 class. In BG you have around 20 with the multi-class chars.
3. The spells are very limited. No charm spells. Your characters can not be charmed or be afraid. Crowd control is limited to doing most damage.
4. Story is pure cliche. The first time Baldur's Gate experience was unique. You were meeting new things in every step and you werent sure what will happen in the end. However in Dragon Age you know exactly what will happen and nothing you do changes that.

That's why, I believe Dragon Age is a unique game which is a lot of fun to play but a very different game style than Baldur's Gate. For me the true successor of BG is Divinity Original Sin.

Klumpen0815: Thanks, so there is a lot of money involved as we all know how "gaming journalism" works. ;)

If Witcher 3 came out in the same year as Shadow of Mordor it would have been destroyed by people who played Witcher 3 earlier (aswell as DA:I)

Anyway what 2014 game you feel deserves GOTY?
Dark Souls 2. Lisa:The Painful RPG, Shovel Knight, Alien Isolation.

Anything but Bioware's latest bowel movement or Blandness of Mordor.

Bioware is a dead zombie company! No more flare, fire, imagination, inovation like in DA:O and Mass Effect 1; last two Bioware games worth something; worth buying; only on GOG of course! Hint, hint! ;-)

And DA:I should have a WGOTY Edition. Button-mashing, QTE-sequences, No-RPG like, Console oriented piece of crapware + Denuvo Anti-Tamper (1.000.000 €)!

That's my two cents! ;-)

Honest question now. Have you played Dragon Age: Inquisition?

Did EA hire someone from 2K?

As a matter of fact, I did! Luckily I decided not to buy it at first and went to a friend who bought it on day one. And we are both seasoned PC players and above all RPG players. And we were both shocked by amount of clicking, button-mashing and other console infested crap in that game that has the same name as an RPG masterpiece DA:O and comes from the same company that made BG, JE and KOTOR + of course DA:O.
And so I never bought the game and never will and he never finished it!

It's even terrible on consoles, so in this case it's not just a bad port it's simply a very very bad game.
