Dragon Age: Inquisition, the latest fantasy action RPG title from BioWare has a huge playable material and provides amazing environment for players to keep on with their game.
Inquisition was released on 18 November 2014 for PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
The game is an action packed title with a range of gameplay systems for players.
Below is a tip from Digital Trends that might help players in their gameplay when they start their adventure in Thedas:
Keep Clicking: Players are advised to keep clicking the left stick of their controller for every few steps when they move. Though initially players might feel irritated, they will eventually be habituated with it.
These constant clicks will allow players to check for any objects in the environment that one can use to interact. If there are objects in the surrounding, the left stick will release a sonar-like ping that will appear visually as an expanding circle.
It highlights any close by interactive objects in bright yellow and as players near it, they will find a text on the screen. If players can hear the ping, but are unable to find it, it's advisable to pan the camera slowly in a circle, they can also try change their position.
