    Misleading thread title is misleading. It only has unlimited multiplayer and only 6 hours of campaign. Wouldn't call it exactly free. Basically it's a demo/trial version.

    It was just the title used by the web page I first saw it on. I just figured Origin was the place to go to so I gave it's link instead.


    ...besides, "EA offers a free version of Dragon Age: Inquisition that includes six hours of single player and unlimited multiplayer" was a bit long for a title.

    ...put description in OP.

    Do you think 4GB RAM can be a problem? It seems to be idling around 1.6Gb, then when i launch the game it sits around 2.5 for a while and game seems to be running smooth, but when it reaches around 3.4GB of Ram used total it start stuttering. Is 85% of RAM used a some magical number?
    CPU is running around 30-50% at most and GPU barely reaches 30% load or so it seems.

    Not sure what else can be a problem as my notebook seems to be powerful enough to run it even in full hd.
