Anyone else looking forward to Dragon Age? (Spoilers and plot discussion here)

And the scarcity of potions is RIDICULOUS.

I'm practically floating in the things.  Don't you have a crafter in the party?

When you mention party do you mean party full of NPCs?

Do you guys think this would play terribly on a console?

I will be getting it for Xbox, preferably tonight, since I don't own a Windows gaming computer, so I will let you know.

Great,

He does, it's a single player game.

I don't think there is a first-person view.  You can zoom and change the viewing angle so that you sorta follow the party.  But you still see their shoulders.

Meh, not an absolute deal-breaker, but I really hate that. How hard is it to put in a first person view?

I just picked up Dragon Age.  Think I'm gonna start off with a Gutter Dwarf Rogue.

Playing a human female warrior noble (yes, redhead). Struggling with the cam controls. Zoomed in looks pretty but sucks in a fight. Zoomed out is useful in combat, but doesn't look pretty.

Also, I'm disappointed that the main character's lines aren't read out loud and that they took a step back from the dialogue system in Mass Effect.

Local EB Games (the only place to buy games besides 3 year old titles at Walmart) was sold out.  Maybe tomorrow.

Dude, welcome to the 21st century!
Steam, EA Download Manager, Direct2Drive, GamersGate, etc, etc, etc.

Simply not practical unless you limit the PC to two voices like in Mass Effect.  I think the dialog system in Mass Effect was pretty lame in the sense you knew what you were going to say based on where it was on the dialog wheel not what it actually said.

My brother insists on having physical copies of everything he buys, so maybe Beeb is the same.

[viper37]

Btw, anyone else has problems with the zooming function not working on the mouse?  It works fine with page up/pgdwn but not the mouse wheel.

Also when you push the mouse to the edge of the screen, does the camera angle changes as if you were pressing 'a' or 'd' ?  'Cause here, it doesn't   I kinda like that in KOTOR.

Well my brother does act like a grumpy old man, in fact.  He always refused to try drugs, and also will not drink alcohol.

It seems Futureshop is sold out. I refuse to go at EBgames.

Can't use digital providers :s

[grumbler]

Got mine from Amazon, should be delivered today.

If this game sucks, there are a lot of people here who will be dead to me.
