In my previous video, I only showed off the very basics of how fighting works in Dragon Age. Looking back at it, I don't think it really showed how fun the combat system can be. So today we have a video of the first boss fight. This may be considered a minor spoiler.
The video above shows one way to handle fighting. I like issuing orders directly to my party, however it can be a bit cumbersome. Dragon Age includes a tactics system to help alleviate this. You can assign conditions and action to each npc and let them fight on their own.
It actually took me 4 tries to win the above battle on normal difficulty. Each time I failed the Ogre only had a sliver of health left. My problem was that I relied on brute force which is not recommended against an Ogre.
