    I love Dragon Age.  Love the story and I am a sucker for Bioware RPG's.  Ive beaten the game several times and I can proudly say that (as of last night) I got ALL the achievements in the game.  This being said, the game is not perfect.  Setting aside the graphical issues and some of the combat issues, the game is glitchy as hell!  I feel the need to talk about a few of them and get some feedback from the community.   What glitches have you guys got?  Anything interesting or fun?  I have been talking to friends and we  seem to be getting some different glitches.  Here is a couple:
     
    -random game freezes
    -I speak to a character and an event occurs. I complete the fight.  Then the initial conversation starts over , and the fight begins again.
    -cannot complete several quests or get the item needed. (example:the ironwood tree in the Brecilian Forest) 
    -a funny one that started happening recently was that when I kill an enemy and he bleeds out, I get a perfectly square blood pattern below the body. The bigger the enemy the bigger the blood square.  (rather humorous actually)
     
    These are just a few, but I'm interested in hearing some the weird ones that everyone else gets.  So, lets hear them!

    Not really a glitch but on the PS3 version I've been wasting time lately wondering if Genlocks are going to drop some loot when they die because there seems to be a 10 second delay instead of it happening instantly earlier in the game. Damn annoying when I turn and walk away only to look back and see the body suddenly sparkling. It is almost as if it is taunting me.

    @RickettyCricket:
    The only real problem I remember experiencing is that it often takes a long time for corpses to be lootable after killing an enemy. Sometimes I'd have to stop to save my game, then reload the game before an enemy's corpse is lootable. 
     
    I should also note I'm playing on the xbox 360 version. Installing the game to the hard drive fixed this slightly, but there were often large delays before I could loot a corpse.

    I agree. The delayed loot glitch can definitely annoy me, especially when it takes a full 10 seconds for it to show up!

    I had a sparkly red glow about me when my warrior put Morrigan "to the sword" as it were.

    When you cannot un-equip the guard armor in the "captured" quest, really game breaker. And the loot glitch is  annoying
