I realized that I fucked things up so very badly on this game, so I started over as a Dwarf Rogue. The Dwarf Commoner origin kicks the shit out of the Magi story.

yeah well Im gonna go buy halo 1 for the pc next week newbs!
'Tis The Season - Sage - 11-06-2009
So I bought Dragon Age but I can't play it because my brother's stoned and playing L4D.
...On my console.
Mind you, I don't care enough to kick him off.
But yeah. The album art is very, uh... generic. That's my in-depth review of Dragon Age at this time.
'Tis The Season - Jesper - 11-06-2009
Knowing Sage, he'll probably hate the shit out of this game.
Because he sucks.
'Tis The Season - Sage - 11-06-2009
It's a BioWare game. It's practically not allowed to suck.
But it does have EA on the cover. =(
And what game that doesn't suck do I hate?
'Tis The Season - Jesper - 11-06-2009
I, uh, don't even know. Or don't remember, rather. What games do you hate? We can go from there.
'Tis The Season - Vad - 11-06-2009
I'm finding Dragon Age a little bland. Morrigan is MMMMMMMMM though.

Halo 3! Yeah, I remember that.
I guess I'm just not an rpg fan, because Dragon Age couldn't look more unappealing.
'Tis The Season - Sage - 11-07-2009
Halo 3 does suck, though. =/
Anyway, havin' fun so far. Human magi. <.<
But I'm starting to think that mighta been one of the more boring routes to take, but I'm a sucker for magic-users. I just hope helping this guy in the tower doesn't fuck everything up for me. I might make an elf rogue or something in the future. Slave-thief ftw. But if it's anything like Mass Effect I'll only be able to bring myself to play through once.
Don't get me wrong; Mass Effect was awesome. But the idea of doing it again seems tedious.
'Tis The Season - Kaden - 11-07-2009
Is anyone else playing a warrior? Trying to decide whether I want to go shields or two-handers. I need to remake my warrior. I didn't realize it at creation, but his skin is white. Not like, Caucasian white, like the color white. It's disgusting and going to piss me off the entire game if I keep playing.
Fortunately, I'm going to lose, like, no progress, so I don't really mind.
'Tis The Season - Rem-13 - 11-07-2009
I went sword and shield and its pretty rockin'. Overwhelm is rape.
'Tis The Season - Super Buu - 11-07-2009
I'm using two-handers (with berserker once I unlock it), rolling with Morrigan, Leliana and Alastair. I've got Alastair's tactics set up to attack any enemy who's attacking a party member, with his aggro mode on, otherwise my main guy tends to go down fast.
But yeah, dabbling in multiple weapon trees seems to be bad from what I've read. Apart from Pinning Shot which my Dalish dude came with, I haven't touched the other weapon trees.
God damn crazy old forest hermit.
'Tis The Season - Jack - 11-07-2009
Love how you copied your sig verbatim.
'Tis The Season - Tyr - 11-07-2009
I'm quite saddened by the extra content provided in this game. Not that it isn't fun, but it throws balance straight out the window. I went to the capital (waaaay too soon) and there was literally 20 bandits ambushing me in there. Their arrows did anything but bounce back from hitting my Dragon armor and hit them in the face. I took no damage and as my entire party died, I stood singular in full dragon armor, ripping these bandits apart one by one.
That said, I will not stop using the armor until I find a cooler one. 'tis the curse of the good looks.
P.S. Elf commoner story ftw.
'Tis The Season - Vad - 11-07-2009
So yeah, I have the Templars and Magi on my side...got Morrigan her book. The fucking Fade thing was annoying as hell, but I did enjoy bashing the fuck out of things in Golem form.
I attempted to do the Redcliffe mission where you fight the damn undead. *slams head on desk* I COULDN'T DO IT!
'Tis The Season - Super Buu - 11-07-2009
Ugh ... I think I might have to go buy the console version. It's running like crap on my computer and occasionally it outright overheats and crashes accompanied by loud beeping, which probably isn't good for my computer. I guess I can keep the game for when I eventually get a new computer and try a mage playthrough =(
'Tis The Season - Sage - 11-07-2009
Any tips for fighting Ogres?
Sweet Jesus they're tough.
Specifically, when they grab you. Is there any way to get free or are you fucked?
I had to run around in a big circle and cast Cone of Cold whenever he got close so he'd freeze in step and I could run away some more. I can't imagine they intended for me to circle-strafe for five minutes while my three incredibly retarded party members occasionally catch up to him and slash at his ass.
I guess I should look into setting up tactics for the NPCs to try to make them less stupid. As a mage I'm made of glass and it's hard to run from big scary monsters that cover fifty feet in a step.
EDIT: lawl. It would seem my local EB fucked up and gave me a preorder copy. I've been told I wasn't supposed to get all the cards with the DLC on it. <.<
If this is true, then fuck yeah! If not, then, whatever. Not paying for stuff is good even if it's status quo.
'Tis The Season - Super Buu - 11-07-2009
Other characters can free you. I think knockdown or stun attacks might be able to make them drop you.
'Tis The Season - Kole T. Merr - 11-07-2009
Depends on which DLC cards you got. Preorders got the feral wolf charm and the +xp ring, everyone who buys a new copy gets shale and the armor that works in ME2.
'Tis The Season - Sage - 11-07-2009
Ah, okay. Then it seems I got nothing.
Question: why the fuck would you make us DL that stuff if everyone gets it anyway? O.o
It's not like there's much space left on my HD. >=(
