I want to be excited for it but there is something not right about the trailers. I want to play a new WRPG but there is something wrong with this game. I am not sure if either this or Alpha Protocol(bad name, good concept) are going to turn out any good. Sucks that the console version of The Witcher was cancelled.

i wouldn't be worried about this game.  It's Bioware, it's going to be amazing.  Also, as annoying as the narrator is on those gameplay videos, the gameplay still looks incredible.  I've read the prequel book and the setting is awesome.  The possibilities with this game are going to be insane :)

I had a bad experience with there previous game, Mass Effect.  The storytelling was great but the technical issues and frustating combat system was a turn off.  The PC version was a llittle better from what I played of it but my computer broke and had to get a new one.  I tried to play it again but the new computer had serious trouble running it.  That experience is kind of souring Dragon Age as well as BioWare in general.

well, Mass Effect is more of a shooter RPG than an RPG with shooter elements, so I wouldn't take it as an example of Bioware games. after all, every other Bioware game is more like DA than Mass Effect and it runs on UE3 too, while Dragon Age runs on their own engine.

I hope the limited edition arrives here, EA brought Spore and The Sims 3, so I'm quite optimistic.
