By the time you wound up and swung through, Zevron had already cut off your opponent's head and moved on to hit on Wynne some more. <br /><br />I played Mage last night on the DAII demo and got my butt handed to me, but it was a hoot.

It's so rad!!<br /><br />"is it me or did Hawke’s mom have the same voice as the mom from the Cousland warrior noble origin?"<br /><br />YES! Thank you. She's the official Dragon Age Mom now, I guess. I played through again last night as a male mage, opting for all the dickish answers...man, the mage animations are SO BOSS. The spells are all performed differently, the staff is REALLY used as a melee weapon, and it's as fast as sword melee. Very cool. Can't lie, I'm gonna do a warrior run as well.<br /><br />And I agree- much tragedy in this prologue!<br /><br />I wish it had started maybe a minute or two earlier, or perhaps actually showed the invasion of Lothering. Would have given all the wasteland some context.Stacie Ponderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07784074536271206501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990955102330276556.post-6260204370909237992011-02-23T07:53:54.635-08:002011-02-23T07:53:54.635-08:00Refresh my memory, is this a online mumorpeger (MM...Refresh my memory, is this a online mumorpeger (MMORPG) or can you play it first-person?

Still felt enough like Dragon Age to alleviate some earlier misconceptions. <br />Played as female rogue Hawke first, and then dipped into male warrior Hawke for a while. You will really dig the warrior combat this time around – very fun. Also, for once the default male character isn’t all goofy looking in the game play. The voice talent on the male Hawke is pretty great too, particularly compared to male Shepard IMO. Also loved how, even in the demo, the BioWare knack for gut-punching you with story twists shone through. One character’s (you know the one) fate had me all totally “Wha?!?” BTW, is it me or did Hawke’s mom have the same voice as the mom from the Cousland warrior noble origin? <br />Only thing that had me scratching my head was how blasted Loethering was. I mean, they don’t call it a blight for nothin’ I guess. Still, if not for the bridge in the background, I’d have never known it was the same place.Sean Belcherhttp://noloanforjohnny.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
