I got my copy today. So far I’m enjoying it. It has a nice feel to it, I’d expect nothing less from Bioware. I’d prefer Mass Effect style combat, and it’s taking a bit of getting use to the main character being silent and the dialogue options being exactly what the other characters hear.

I didn’t have that long to play tonight, but tomorrow night unless I head out somewhere I’ll be playing for a while. I spend quite a bit of time updating my XBOX and then redeeming a frak load of codes that came with my edition. There’s just one bit of DLC I don’t have ‘The Warden’s Tower’ It’s pretty cheap so I might pick it up eventually.

Newegg dropped their price by $5. Their policy doesn’t include store credit.

Spoke to soon. I decided to try anyway and got a $5 refund.

#23

Got it yesterday. My only question is…why exactly does everyone you meet have to be an sorrybarbhole. Seriously. “Oh hey, wassup we cool?” “Yeah we cool” SHANK

#24

Did the game do something wrong or is there a really cool story behind that?
Everyone is worried about swine flu and no one is talking about the d-bag pandemic. :wink:

I picked it up yesterday also. Last one on the shelf. The cashier said she had seen a lot of them. I guess the word is out. I’m so excited! :smiley:

#25

It’s a good story, it’s just that, especially as a Noble human everyone is like “oh hello there you are pretty cool” “Yeah I know” “JK SHANK”

#26

ya they did say that depending on your starting race/position in society would effect how people respond to you

I imagine when I find the Elves that hate Humans they’re not going to take too kindly to a human nobleman…

#27

I started as a mage and there’s a sort of betrayal in that story, too. I’m sensing a theme?

So far it’s pretty great. The combat is very good so far, much better than Neverwinter Nights 2; it flows great and doesn’t feel jenky at all.

#28

I’m a drawven noble and yeah. d:

Do you guys use http://social.bioware.com/ ? It’s kinda cool. Redeemed my codes for free gear then lost them after the bretayal. ):

#29

I love me some goth chick, totally just hit that brosefs. =P

Also I signed up on that site, where are the codes?

#30

I think they are special/unique with each purchase, and definitely one-time use.

On a different topic, I think we need a spoilers thread. d:

#31

Anyone got a Wet-nap? I think I got some on me. :eek:

#32

I think I just had an eargasm! Claudia Black and Kate Mulgrew are as much a pleasure to listen to as they are to watch. :cool:

Anyone know if Sean has got this? It is totally his bag baby. :smiley:

#33

I sent him a message about it last week. He said he would give it a look see.:slight_smile:

#34

Claudia’s character is wrong for my party, but I so wanna keep her. d:

Tim Curry is in this game too.

#35

Tim Russ aka Tuvoc is the Dalish Elf leader as well :smiley:

#36

Cool I haven’t got that far.

#37

Started playing a couple of nights ago on the PC. My human rogue is already saving the day instead of trying to impregnate elves, which is a little disappointing, but it seems like a winner.

#38

If anyone reading this is playing Mage, just push hard for level 10. It’ll be tough, but it pays off.

I can’t wait to get some spec in Arcane Warrior. I think the thing to unlock that is in the Dalish place.

#39

you can go to the Dalish anytime you want, I made them my first major stop

OMG! Two of my favorite actors. Gorram Amazon hasnt even shipped my game yet. :mad:
