Like yeah, it had serious problems, was a terrible intro to the franchise for anyone brand new to it, and there's not a single episode of the six that wouldn't have benefited greatly by being 50% longer, but...
As far as video game related audio-visual media go, it's like sixty million percent better than most. It's only failure in trying to capture what made the games good - its focus on a cast of fun characters with interesting dynamics - was primarily related to its other flaws, not some slavish adherence to the source material.
Plus, we got our first visual look at Tevinter, met a douche of a magister, had a cute little gay romantic subplot, and most importantly, it has provided me additional sustenance during these trying times as we await Veilguard.
It was a missed opportunity, but if Veilguard is a hit, I would love to see more animated DA. Just, for the love of the Maker, please give them the budget to let the characters and story breathe next time.
