@Thenomain said in Dragon Age: Dread Wolf's Rise:
Gritty is a mood, not a setting. DA2, I feel, failed it horribly.
I agree, but I find Bioware's rote attempts to bog you down in the emotional troubles of people you wouldn't want anywhere near the task of saving the world to break that gritty mood, when gritty is what they're attempting to go for. It's all a little too Whedonesque.
