Developers have acknowledged the next game will not be like this. So no worries.

This is a criticism that I can get on board with. It’s jarring. I’m not sure why it extended so long to be honest.

I wouldn’t have such a problem if that huge span of time served a purpose and was actually reflected in the game. Hawke and the companions don’t age, the companions wear the same clothes, and the city itself bears no physical differences for ten years straight.

And when we actually arrive in Kirkwall, we don’t even get to experience Hawke’s first year there! I wish that was included in Act I. Also, I find it hard to believe that Hawke and sibling wouldn’t need to seek medical attention from a free clinic if they were running about with mercenaries/smugglers. (I guess the case for that is Bethany or mage Hawke know healing magic, but still.)
