It's a BioWare RPG through and through, and players shouldn't expect anything vastly different from past games from the studio. You meet people, build a party, go adventuring, can start romances, etc.
It's absolutely huge, and is one of the biggest games of this type I've played. Of course, there are "bigger" video games out there, but the feeling of enormity that Inquisition imparts leaves it feeling as massive as even the most sprawling open-world game. Each of the game's many explorable areas is large enough to be the main hub of a smaller game.
It is, at times, lacking technical polish. Many of the bugs that I encountered have either already been patched out of the game or will be addressed by a patch when the game launches tomorrow. Inquisition will likely remain somewhat rough—the tech supporting the game is often lovely looking, but it just seems to be held together a little loosely. It's not a dealbreaker by an stretch, but there is some funkiness going on at the margins.
You can't rush through it, and it regularly stymies any attempts to do so. My first playthrough took me 85 hours, and I am sure I missed a huge amount of stuff.
Multiplayer looks fun, but I (still) haven't tried it. I wrote that last week, but you know what? I still haven't. Sometimes these things happen, especially when a game isn't out yet. I will absolutely play the game's interesting-if-slight-looking cooperative multiplayer, and when I do, I'll write about it and/or update this review. That said, there's such an absurd amount of cool stuff to do in singleplayer that the game would be easy to recommend even if it had no multiplayer at all.
It's not really newcomer-friendly, and relies heavily on a knowledge of existing Dragon Age lore, as well as the events of the first two games. There's not really much for that if you're a newbie, though I've written an extensive lore primer for those who haven't played before. Read that and work through the Dragon Age Keep website. You should be fine.
It's gorgeous, and while some of the character animations in cutscenes still have that trademark BioWare stiffness, the fields, deserts, swamps and mountains in the game are generally lovely to behold.
