So I really liked Dragon Age Origins and this game is a huge improvement in almost every way, but they really dropped the ball I think when it comes to the classes themselves and combat in general. Just a minute ago I was thinking about how bummed out I am playing my Mage because I don't have any really cool abilities or spells and I decided to look at DA:O's spell selection because I didn't have any problem with any of the classes in that game and boy oh boy is there a huge deficit in the number of skills and abilities you can choose from and level up between DA:O and DA:I.
I mean look at these, these are the spells alone for mage, this doesn't include the entire other page of abilities for rogue and warriors...and yet in DA:I we have a few pages with about 8 or so fairly run of the mill spells and abilities and I've re-specced multiple times to try them all out and none of them are even that fun to use or very powerful feeling, unlike the blizzard spell in DA:O, or Inferno or most of the other spells for that matter.
I thought the game looked really fun from the quick look but I'm pretty bored only seven or so hours into my Mage playthrough and I tried all the other classes and those are all just as uninteresting.
How have your guys' and gals' experiences been so far and what do you think about this?
