Just found out that there's now the option to turnoff the "fish eye" effect when using Witcher sense which some player claimed gave them headache. Though I don't get discomfort from using Witcher sense, I also selected to turn off the effect for much clearer view with no distortion nod.gif

GOTY out end of this month, but PSN having some sale now. Wonder which should I get

I think it is merely renaming their current package of "full game with season pass" to GOTY edition (since there isn't going to be any more new expansion so the season pass labeling is no longer relevant).

Anyway, if you are like me (new comers to PS4), I recommend you to get the Dragon Age Inquistion GOTY edition which is on sales right now for merely RM56. I also played Witcher 3, almost finished but it's beginning to bore me out with the lone warrior gameplay and single class (warrior) gameplay.

Witcher 3 is like a "slimmed down" version of general RPG whilst The Dragon Age Inquistion GOTY to me is much a much "fuller" RPG, 3 classes of combat style (warrior, rogue, mage and further specializations.....), fighting party that is made up of 4 members (instead of a lone wolf like Geralt) and perhaps more main story branching with different consequences and more interesting selection of conversion options.

What's lacking in Witcher 3? Well the lack of party members means you only play one style through out the whole game, not to mention you are limited to a warrior class in Witcher 3 (also a slimmed down version of warrior class, no option to chose between dual welding or sword with shield). The lack of companions also mean there is no cheeky conversions between party members to entertain you while you wondered all alone through out huge world maps generally found in every RPG.

Graphic wise Witcher 3 truly push the console to the limit, BUT the constant cloudy/raining weather in Witcher 3 base game took most of the gorgeous graphic away and make the game look dark and lack of colors most of the time doh.gif . I prefer the more colorful and bright sunny look of Dragon Age, not to mention the much better looking armors (and variety) found in Dragon Age thumbup.gif , Witcher 3 armors sets really lacks the WOW factor sad.gif and looks the same when you stick to a "single school of witcher gear" to accommodate your playstyle.

If you haven't play Dragon Age Inquisition I highly recommend you to get it first at the current awesome price (with all expansions and many add-ons). Both games are worth playing for any RPG fans, but DA is a much "fuller" RPG than Witcher 3. Last but not least we get great butt swaying animation when you play female mages character in game, in Witcher 3 we get the annoying bossy Yennifer that I wish to slap her whenever she opens her mouth.

thanks for the info on DAI GOTY...but is rm56 psn+ price or...?

The price won't differ much even if you're not a PS Plus member, as the members merely get an additional 10% discount off the original promo price by EA. I guess you have to pay RM60+, still a steal for such an awesome huge game. The sales end this month end.

Hey, thanks man. I may consider getting it, though I initially chose to get Witcher instead as I am more attracted to their overall art and style compared to Dragon Age. But like you said, it's cheap now, so I might get that too. Cheers!

Oh.... The EA sales actually ends on 24 August and not month end, so better hurry to grab the offered game. Otherwise have to wait a few of months before EA have another sale blush.gif
If you do buy the Dragon Age GOTY edition, remembered to download the separate premium add-on early in the game, I missed that and by the time I realized the premium starting armor and weapons were much lower spec than my existing gear doh.gif Many of the add-ons and expansion should be downloaded early on and not after you finished the base game, this is because they provide some added feature and collectibles and even sub-skill!

As someone who plays both games, and played it a few time including those 2 trilogies, IMO, DA story wise went down the drain with DA2. The witcher series; it gets better from the 1st witcher games.

Sure, in the witcher, u dont have those 4 party playable character with u all the time unlike DA series, but DAI gets pretty repetitive; if u are like me, trying to achieve 100% on quest. Witcher 3 sure does have cliche quest (hunt, etc) but each quest backside story is different.

Witcher series carry forward their story from 1 and 2 to 3 better than DA series. I did not play any (if available) DLC for DAI which concludes the ending, but Witcher ends it better than DA IMO.

Hi, I guess it's down to personal preferences as there's no definite better game. Cheers rclxms.gif
I've played Dragon Age Origin and also didn't play any of the sequel, instead jump directly into DA Inquisition.
I lacked motivation to finish Witcher 3 for the time being, the quest to save a young lady which "the player" has no attachment to doesn't provide enough drive to move the story to the end for me yawn.gif and I hated the Yennefer character doh.gif

Anyway I hope Capcom would come out soon with a sequel to Dragon's Dogma drool.gif More good game for RPG fans thumbup.gif
