Finally! Some gameplay.

Noicccccccccccccce 
 
They weren't kidding with the change of style. Looks like something out of Darksiders. 
 And yes! The option to toggle visibility of the characters helmet!

This is just what I was looking for! 
 
Edit: Oh, 11 minutes isn't as much as I was hoping.

Please tell me there is going to be more detail on your companion status bars.  Those look awful
Krystal_Sackfulon Feb. 8, 2011 at 8:46 a.m.
I am eager to see this. And make sure the gameplay isn't like dynasty warriors.
EDIT: IT IS DYNASTY WARRIORS FFFFFFFFF

 I loved Dragon Age & Awakening but it seems like they really dumbed down everything that made the first game great.

Whoa!  Whoa!   WHOA!
 
Time for the truth, does it suck or not?

Holy crap! That was unexpected.

One of my most anticipated games this year. Haters be damned!

 Interesting that DAII looks a lot more actiony and streamlined like Mass Effect 2 was compared to ME1    
gosukilleron Feb. 8, 2011 at 8:51 a.m.
Now my standards may be too high, since I've only played the PC version, but this looks quite bad detail wise and even worse information-on-screen wise. 
 
Still, I'll reserve judgement untill I've had the PC version in front of me. I loved the shit out of DA:O. 
The spellbook-menu seems far more interesting than the original though, me like.

The main question in my head is, have they dumbed it down to ruining degrees, or have they dumbed it down to the Mass Effect level - and perhaps improved other aspects to hit the same high-points?
 
I'm all for diversity, but at the same time, we could worse than having two Mass Effect style/quality properties rollin up on us. :)
