Dave or Vinny seem like good choices. Dave reviewed the first game so it feels right. Vinny plays games to completion and with Dragon Age thats  quality that some one needs, and he also played the original one. It's the shame Ryan only played it a little, and Jeff and Brad didn't play it at all. Origins should have been the Biowre game they all played.

@Undeadpool: Yeah, but you don't know what your going to say until you say it. It's just the gist of the statement  that you know. I can see why people would want it sped up but I'm not that kind of person. I'm fine with reading a lot, I like that i have to think carefully abut whats being said in Dragon age, the pacing is irelevant to me because I like the story and the dialogue; making it fast and snappy just takes away something for me.  They flow better, but it seems less natural. 
@mazik765: I guess they can't please everyone all of the time, but thank goodness the players actions are still judged in ways that have meaning and not some Paragon/Renegade bar. The colors of the icons will probably sway my decisions still, but at least its not some bar that judges me how nice and how dickish my responses are. Thats the worst part about ME's dialogue.     
Anyways... to be more relevant to this topic, fingers crossed for auto attack that doesn't make me pause the game!

@phrosnite: Ok. I'm not going to search for that answer. I still think that RPG is a very vauge term and not the best way to describe a game Though I think Diablo falls under it, Dragon Age falls under it, Fallout falls under it, and Jrpgs fall under it. Those are always what come to mind when i think RPG.

@phrosnite: What makes something an RPG?  I don't see how Diablo isn't one. Sure you aren't making choices in the story, but you are picking a character and building up stats.

@mazik765: Maybe I'm wrong, I think the reason i don't like it is that is too clear in ways but not in others. Knowing a comment Hawkes making is sarcastic is great. Helps out in misunderstandings. The paraphrasing bothers me, i rather read exactly what i'm going to say. With the wheel there still can be some moments where i'll think, "thats not what i wanted to say". The list feels more natural and i never had a problem knowing the intent of the statements.
 Also the wheel is so transparent, the set up is always the same, left is always investigate and then on the right you are judged on your choices because you know blue=paragon=top right and red = renegade=bottom right, essentially. Before you were just given a list of choices, you were the one deciding what was good. Now in DA2 when given the choice to euthanize a tranquill  know that killing them is the good choice and letting them live would be bad. Before there was a gray area in your choices, and thats something games need to replicate, not some wheel thats there for people to think less.

@mazik765: I wouldn't say the new dialouge is clearer.

@jmrwacko:  Why would he have a gun or a bear (other than if the ranger specialzation was still in the game)? I meant that he can't equip anything else. His cross bow Biana is the only weapon he carries, aparently, and it has a retractable blade... which seems a little out of place and WoW like to think of it.

@wasteguru: Well yeah, that is neat. Did it ever seem like he would always pop in on conversations way more than anyone else though, like to make up for the areas he lacks. I always found that funny.  
@Lord_Yeti: It's no shame at all, there were dozens of other characters that could be in the squad some of which I've never even really hung out with, at that point why do i need the DLC characters that aren't as good?
 @Brodehouse:  Sure content thats cut out is neat to see resurface. However, what I'm saying is that sometimes the content could have been in the game in the first place. All of these preorder sheilds and weapons and the dog, could just be some loot in the game. Shale did not need to be cut out of Origins,  i personally do not see anything about her that points to her being a character that was cut due to time, she just seemes irelevant, like a hidden character like Yuffie or Vincent. 
@melcene: People have a right to sell whatever they want in their games. I have no problem with that. But look at games from the PS2 era. Fighting games had crazy unlockalbes and alternate costumes, now thats all DLC.
Also i care very much about games have been like in the past, thats one of my complaints on DA2, it's too different.
