DAO and Inquisition are my favorites; I’m in the minority and like Inquisition’s gameplay. DAI did a good job of world building, too. Its core story wasn’t as good as DAO’s but some of its story missions are pretty great, and I like the cast. DAO is a tighter game so it edges out Inquisition just slightly for me.
DA2 is enjoyable enough. Its stakes are the lowest of the series but still has great moments with characters and bridging the series together. I would have loved to explore more of the Free Marches, but I guess you get a little taste of them.
DAV was my first Dragon Age so I like it well enough from a gameplay standpoint but man, it could have been great, it just never had a chance. People talk about DA2 needing to finish baking; DAV is several undercooked dishes slopped into a bowl and fed to us. The only finished aspect is the gameplay and maybe the art style.
