Are you male or female? In the game I mean.

I played the first time as a human rogue male and the second as a female human mage, I found this combination a lot more practical and enjoyable.

I'm playing as a female rogue, dual-wielding daggers. I think I would have preferred archery, but then again there are lots of rogues in the game and Sera is as good as it gets, so maybe next time I'll try something different.

So far I've been flirting with Cullen, Blackwell and Dorian (hmm, though, Dorian's suspiciously flamboyant and altogether too good-looking and well-dressed ) and I think I'll carry on with Blackwell. He seems a decent sort.

Cole is a good rogue too.

Flirting is better when playing as female, I did it with Cullen, he is naive but "interesting" romance that escalates with time.

I suspect that this, like DA Origin, will have enough content that I'll play it multiple times over the years, so I'll try another romance next time. maybe I'll even play through the whole trilogy next -- I overplayed DAO, but that was years ago and I could probably handle another go-through.

I think I'm going to hit the experience cap long before this game is done...

Ahhh,then you'll be able to power through the quests, yes?

I guess so -- though I have yet to try a dragon, and I got smacked down thoroughly by the Haakonites in the DLC and had to beat a retreat, so I have a ways to go.

I'm enjoying just wandering around, closing rifts, gathering shards, finding stuff, and making armour and weapons. I've upgraded my castle 2/3 of the way, looking for ingredients for the third piece. Lots to do.

Heh heh. Good thing I didn't make a fool of myself running after Dorian. I KNEW he was just too well-dressed.
