The Myst games are... different. They're problem-solving games, games where you wander around and try to figure out which buttons to push in which order, and what the lever here has to do with the counterweight there, and why there aren't any people around. They're also played in strict first person, without player-created avatars (unless you count Uru). The player can't really affect the plot, just figure it out. Which can be tricky enough. *g* I love the games dearly because I like puttering around at a slow pace, looking at the view and thinking about things; switching to DA-style games was a shock to me because you could talk to people and hit things.
Yeah, I really wanted the option to be cranky with Anders and express my anger without actually killing him. The non-killing options just feel so weak.
Aveline should totally be a romance option! Aveline and Hawke together would make a terrifying force for, um, mostly-good. *g* I'm not really happy with any of the romance options, tbh, which I suppose is the point, or a point, anyway. I'll say this for the Anders romance, though, it does have an awesome kiss scene.
