The mage was by far the most overpowered class in Origins.A mage with both Arcane Warrior and Bloodmage as specializations broke the game.
Hell, Arcane Warrior alone broke the game.

Never went beyond the intro levels of my mage play through, so I didn't pick up on that, I was basing this on my default mage party member Wynne, who was more a buffering mage than a destructive one.
Also two of my full play through characters were also Templars, so I tended to experience less of the destructive side of magic.

Arcane Warrior is not a destructive mage.He is by far the best tank in the game. You simply cannot die with all the buffs.
Blood Mage accentuated that strength by increasing the necessity for a decent constitution, and giving you borked ass spells like Blood Wound.
Playing the demo made me wonder about how to build a strong mage who also wore decent armor, couldn't stand the robe you get in the final part of the demo.
This is going to be one of the few times I buy a strategy guide.
I enjoyed Dragon Age Origins a lot, played the main game for about 77 hours, and then later got Awakening. Nevertheless, I wasn't really interested in Dragon Age 2, enjoyed the first one a lot, but wasn't yearning for a sequel.
But then I tried the demo, loved it. Combat was a hell of a lot better, the fighting animations were highly improved. And I really enjoy the more Mass Effectian dialogue sequences. So I guess it's back on the map for me.
Also, it seems being good at the beginning will make sure that Bethany survives, while she dies at the evil choices (or maybe it's a sex thing, I played the demo as evil male, and Bethany died, while as good female made the brother die), either way, I prefer Bethany and want her alive in the main game.

I got Dragon Age Origins late in the game, but I also enjoyed the game. Awakening was also pretty good. I saw the trailer for Dragon Age 2 and began to get excited for the it. Until I found out that you can be only a human, I was confused how your actions in the first game would transfer to the sequel. I'm still looking forward to the sequel though, its coming soon!
But your decisions from DAO won't do anything in this game will it? As this takes place in a different continent at the same time.

It's based off class. If you're a mage then Bethany dies, if youre a warrior or a rogue Carver dies. Notice that in the exaggerated version if you're a mage Carver's helping you and if you're the others Bethanys with you. It's to make your party balanced or something I guess.
But, but....noo!
I liked Bethany, but I want to kick-ass like he does in the trailer and at the end of the fake beginning. Ripping stuff apart with magic hands.... Darn it.

From what I've read your choices in DAO will influence the story in DAO, is Alister king or is it the girl, did Loghain die or did he survive, did Morrigan get the child with you or Alister, who became king of the dwarfes etc. etc.

That makes the game more intersting for me, I want to see how my choices changed the world
