So I've tried to play through DA:O a lot of times over the past few years, but I never managed to get past the first few hours. Skip forward a few months, "Oh, I don't know anything about this story/my character anymore, let's just start from the beginning". This, several times. And it just happened again. Thing is: I would really(!) like to play the whole trilogy (I own the games already anyway) from start to finish. I'm not(!) looking for a challenge at this point. I come for the story beats and of course I don't want the gameplay to be miserably boring, but the combat shouldn't be too challenging, it would just lead to me stopping playing at some point.
So I turn to you, Giant Bomb Community, to ask the following hard-hitting questions which I'm sure have never(!) been asked before:
- Is there an "agreed upon" "best" origin story (with regard to the impact it might have on the trilogy as a whole)
- Which class would you recommend? (I'd normally go for Rogue, but I heard that mages are pretty good/overpowered in this game, so... maybe?)
- Is playing on "easy" too easy after having spent a few hours with the game or actually a viable option?
Thanks for your answers in advance. By the way: You should be fully aware that your advice might lead to me starting the game from the beginning again, then playing a few hours again and then repeating my mistakes of the past and stopping to play for some reason until I have no clue what's what anymore.
But maybe... just maybe... your answers will lead to me finally finishing DA:O and getting rid of it on my hard drive. That would be nice!
