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

[The Brain]

I got the game!

[Martinus]

I'm an elf mage now, specializing in Spirit magic.

I have already been called godless by the damn bitch priestess at the war camp, after I asked her how she feels about oppression and subjugation of elves done in her god's name.

Some of those fights in Redcliffe are pretty damn tough. I play on easy (as usually in such games - I'm more interested in progressing the story than in repeating a fight ten times), but some of the fights are still tough nailbiters.

I'm especially annoyed that Sten keeps getting knocked out. He has the best armor, and I set him to a somewhat defensive stance, and even though I use my PC and Alistair to get some mobs off of Sten he still manages to burn through health potions and get killed in a disturbing fashion.

I play on hard most of the time and Redcliffe was hell.  I had to switch to easy at one point.

I think maybe you need the witch, she's saved my butt many times. 

[Martinus]

I'm playing on the lowest difficulty level, because I don't like strategy, just casting flashy spells.

[Grallon]

Is it me or are the tactics a bitch?  So far I haven't used any.  I just hack and slash.  I've just completed my testing to enter the Grey Warden. 

I'm trying to bed Allistair.  when i met him i told him i was looking to adventure with him and he responded: well that's a switch!

The online account stuff is totally fucked up. I finally managed to create an account but I can't stay logged in. What's the deal?

[The Brain]

OK I got it to work I think. Thanks for being sucktastic, website.

For me it doesn't show downloadable content, though I guess it should.

[The Brain]

I can't decide what character to play. I can't even decide on male or female.

Any pointer to the fight with the ogre (I thought he was an archdemon at first!) atop Ishual Tower?

Kite him a lot.

[Grallon]

I managed to kill him.

And here's my adorably cute young rogue, Raistlin Cuesland.

I wont post a spoiler but there are tactics you can use to make those fights pretty easy.  When the game hints say you need to vary your tactics depending on situations they really mean it.

One small hint.  Pay attention to your physical surroundings - in really tough battles there is often more you can do then just use the skills of your party members.

You need to keep your ranged away from him.  Send in your tank and keep him healed and keep aggro on him.  Its a basic MMO battle.

You need to be logged on in the game I think.
