This game is amazing and thus deserves it's own topic.

SO FAR I have an awesome warrior Dwarf princess and an awesome rogue Human princess. I am kicking major booty and stabbing lots.

What characters do you guys have? What do you think of the battle system, etc etc.

Don't have the game, but it looks a bit like Fable, but I've only seen Brad from 4pp having sex with pigs so I dunno

The game is very good, typical BioWare RPG.

The combat is reminiscent of BG1 and BG2, but a lot more fluid, a little less pausing and tactics, even on the harder difficulties. Very cinematic battles.

I'm about 20 hours into the game (I get sidetracked easily) and I'm nowhere near the end of it. I've tried both a Dwarf Warrior, a Human Warrior and an Elf Mage, and so far I'm sticking with my human.

All in all, if you can pick it up and you even remotely liked any old Infinity Engine games, do it.

Since it's Bioware, I figured it was 90% talkin to dudes.

I don't want to consider how it really is...

I guess you do a lot of talking, but there's still a fair amount of stabbing.

And then you can press the esc key to go to the next dialogue.

You are now aware in Mass Effect and KOTOR you skipped all the dialogue and only chose what to say based on the last sentence that someone said to you.

I watched someone play Dragon Age and only answer questions with responses ending in periods, so as to make sure that the conversation ended as quickly as possible.

Does anyone else find it incredibly difficult not to be really nice to Alistair? He's like a sarcastic kicked puppy.

That's uh, impressive, Kale.

Alistair is wonderful. His background conversations with the other party members always make me chuckle, especially with Morrigan.

Anyone find the conversations between Morrigan and that rogue chick entertaining? :awesome:
