Getting the year off right by forgetting to post this on Sunday, but better nate than lever. Anyway I watched the Fallout show so I am inspired to play Fallout 4 on survival difficulty. It's been slow going so far as I've died numerous times, often losing ~30 mins of progess. Hope everyone's new year has gotten off to a strong start.
2 is pretty similar to Origins but maybe a bit faster, Inquisition is more streamlined for better and for worse (there are some optional "don't stand in the red circle" fights where the companion AI doesn't recognize what a red circle is). I'd say if the gameplay in Origins was a dealbreaker that you probably won't enjoy the other games in the franchise, except maybe Veilguard which I haven't played.
