Lurker King, your assumptions are tempting to accept, but they are still assumptions. We are missing data.
Look, this is just common sense based on experience. Just look at the negative reviews from both popamoler players and the niche to understand the difference between the two. The first group will complain about bad graphics, lack of handholding, excessive writing, too hard, lack of snowflake complex, etc. The second group will complain about the lack of these things, with the exception of graphics. This is not an controversial and abstruse topic. You just have to look at the way players behave to find an obvious pattern. Look the type of games they enjoy, and the reasons they present to justify their taste.
- Filler quests. I am not buying this at all. If anything, Bioware's forums were full of people complaining about the filler quests when DAI was released. Some reviewers complained too, it doesn't seem like it worked out well for them.
Well, the game it’s still the most successful launch in Bioware history and received the Game of the Year awards from many sites. You have to be really careful when you consider the weight of negative reviews in this case, because most of them are from a vocal minority of old bioware fans that wanted this game to be a proper sequel to DA:O, instead of a inferior copy of Skyrm. They are too "hardcore" for the new generation that never played Kotor, but not hardcore enough in comparison to other oldschool guys. 90% of the buyers never played DA:O and don’t give a shit.
