I can personally really recommend the dwarven origins; I'm usually not a big fan of dwarves, myself, but the dwarven noble origin is by far and away the coolest one in the game, with the dwarven commoner one not far behind.

The Dalish elf, IMO, was the least of the lot. Mostly cause all the other origins make the PC out to be a badass, but the Dalish elf one mostly gets caught up in events by accident.

Thanks for the Dwarf Noble confirmation, I had read it was good. Where did you get to preview DA by the way?

My girlfriend played in the DA Contest (the Warden's Quest one discussed by T.C. Dale in the general forum) on team Bioware, and the Bioware crew was gracious enough to let me hang around at the event (they are a really, really cool bunch of people). I played through all the origins using the XBox 360 machines that were available.

Ah, that event - I've read the news on it. Sounds like it was really interesting.

I noticed this line in a GameBanshee news article:
...24 hours of straight playing had the team seeing 16% of the game.

Sounds like something to me! :)

That sounds like WHEEE! and HUZZAH! to me! :D
It's been a good while since I've seen an RPG with enough content.
Mass Effect came close, but the main storyline was IMO still too short @_@

Well, I could name a few RPGs with a lot of content and hours to put into, but story isn't their strong point. I'm excited about DA because it claims to offer both playing time AND story to match it.
