It is a real glitch, after you finish everything in the Circle of magi, she asks to join your party and one of the answers is along the lines of "thank you but not at this time" and she replies "ok, I will be waiting here for you"

Then she disappears from the game.

Actually that's how it works for most NPCs, the text is just misleading.

If you don't recruit them the first time you can you can not do it afterwards.

Best is recruit them and keep them in your camp if you don't want to use them.

I beat the game a few days ago but I mostly had Morrigan, Alistair, and Leliana in my party.
There is a glitch in the game that caused me to lose "the healer" so I had a hard time at tougher parts. Luckily I was a mage so I could heal a little bit.

I would rate the PS3 version a 9.3, the screen would jitter and sometimes the fps would drop when casting multiple spells with a crap load of enemies on the screen. Most of the time it was fine though, the game is my favorite this year hands down.

BTW: One of the trophy/achievements was to step foot in every area of the game, does that include the DLC as well?

It doesn't include DLCs.

 

What are you calling a glitch ?

There are several things that can cause Wynne to legitimatly leave your party.

 

I only found pouring the draogn blood on the urns to turn her away. Must have missed some other instances then.

 

As for Flemeth, All I did was pop a warmth balm at th start to bsorb all the AOE dmg then I just proceded to tear her a new one.

There's one occurence where she will attack your party and you will have to kill her.

Anoher where she will confront you in camp based on stuff you do and leave your party afterwards...

good story better than oblivion but after you have slain all the dragons it gets boring I personally thought that they would have much much more items to loot but you will only find 3or 4 items that would be considered as a treasure armors look awesome the swords could be better looking i somehow thought that when you choose the voice type they would actually voice act the dialogue you choose but i guess not, bioware can do way better

characters: shale, alistair, morigan, and main character (beef cake)
side quests are ok
Good for most of the game although i did go to the pearl once or twice lol

Most of the good loot is actually not so easy to find,

I did my first run as a sword and board warrior and my second as a mage and Alistair in my second run is much better decked out than my warrior was in the first run...

There are 2 kick ass swords to be found ( 1 need DLC but really stands out).

There are 2 kick ass shields too.

I have to check but I think my second play-through I killed around 30-35 bosses...

What's the sword outside the DLC?

Also I thought just about everyone wuld leave you in camp if your approval with them is too low. Also the pat where she attacks you is at the urn of acred ashes.

She will attack you at another place ( one of the step in the quest where you meet her). 

She will leave you at camp if you pick specifics specializations ( not really related to how well she likes you or not).

The second sword I speak off is the 'keening blade' you get it from a quest related to dead adventurer's bodies...

Oh the sword where you have to kill the demon? Yeah that sword was pretty badass.

I do know though that the best magical weapon I found was Spellweaver which was a sword and only useable by an Arcane Warrior, boy does that sword kick serious ass.... I was hitting for 80 a pop with it, non crits.

@Darth

So you tried you chances with Flemeth right? Well she's tough (tougher than the High Dragon at least), but you do have an advantage in that fight, mainly because she doesn't move from the spot, so if you have a tank character with lots of Fire resistance (Warmth Balms help a lot), just turn on Threaten and Taunt and keep him alive, healthy and in front of her and you'll win the fight after a while.

Man they should patch that then, many other people have had the same problem, and it almost ruins your game if you doin't have a healer.

You can get a sword crafted from a piece of meteorite that will be better than tier 7 swords.
