DA:O which origin did you pick?

I got DA on the 3rd and boy am I happy. Tho only 5 hours or so into the game I am enjoying the experience. What a well built game, although sometimes choppy during cutscenes. The simple flaws can be overlooked from the storytelling.

Question: What origin story did you choose? And what class? I myself went with the elf mage origin, and will specialize in shapeshifting (top dps). I was really torn as arcane warrior and blood mage seem really fun. My only issue is the sheer number of spells I can learn vs my hot keys. I can have 6 spells hotkeyed via my DS3, is that all I can do? It makes it feel very limited, I hope this mod support for ps3 isnt a pipe dream.

I have too wait till the 20th to get this game in UK it got delayed:( ... Im going to pick the ELF origin and my class a Rouge Ranger if possible :) Does anyone know if you can use a Mouse and Keyword (USB) on this game?-Hoax-

I decided to go with the poor Elf origin, reminded me of the one scene in Braveheart where the princes or w.e come to claim their "right". As for the class I am a rogue.

This game is crackkkkkk

I went with a City Elf and chose Warrior class. I'll probably specialize as a Templar when I get far enough for that. I only got a chance to play for maybe 2 hours on Tuesday and haven't even gotten to any combat yet.

a magician I made a replica of my demon's souls character since I've grown somewhat attached lol verbalfilth

I started off with dwarf noble warrior, but got stuck so i made a human noble rogue, and I just specialized as a bard. I really liked the dwarf noble origin though, and now that I know how to actually do it, I'll have to go back after I beat the game with my human noble to finish it up with him. I love dwarfs.

Yeah, I did the dwarf noble as well and am about 4 hrs into it. I am very impressed with the story. Honestly, I've never been a big fan of dwarfs, but I just wanted to try a character that I would not normally do and am glad I did. This game is very impressive, great job Bioware!

This game came out of nowhere to me...and I usually know when a Bioware game is coming! (ie: Star wars Old Republic *droolz*). Anyway I am LOVING it so far and am about 2-3 hours into it! I love how every class has a different start and finish to the game...

I went with a Human Mage and he rocks...he's bald with a short stubble/beard. Yes there are some framerate issues but I dont even care with how engaging the story is and the decision making. Love it...reminds me of Kotor in a huge way, but medieval!

I too am having issues with the hotkeys...Right now I have 6 spells and they are in every slot, but what happens when I get more spells?!?! Ugh.

And the collectors edition is sick! The case, the cloth map etc etc...all quality! Last time I got a cloth map is when I bought the original Ultima online!

I made a male dalish warrior elf. I named him Legolas as well since I love Lord of the Rings.

you actually can have 12 if you don't mind an extra step. You have 6 per weapon set, so when you change weapon set from say melee to ranged you can have 6 different hotkeys. Kind of lame if you only really specialize with one weapon or weapon set, but nice if you have different tactics with a bow as opposed to a sword.

As for my character I went with a city elf rogue who strongly dislikes humans (as I dictate with my dialogue choices). I'll probably either be assassin (if i get around to making more poisons) or a duelist. One thing I'll recommend to everyone is for the love of Pete, MAKE A CRAP LOAD OF HEALTH POTIONS. You can never have too many, and ALWAYS be sure to have your allies gambits set to use one when their health gets a little low and PUT IT IN THE FIRST SLOT so they will heal before they attack. That and don't rush and please plan ahead.

If you want to set up 12 hotkeys for your warrior and you only use one weapon, you would have to find the identical weapon and equip it in your secondary slot.
