I really want this, but I don't want to trade in any more games and I don't have money to buy it tomorrow. What should I do?

Garry: I know you gentlemen have been through a lot, but when you find the time I'd rather not spend the rest of the winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!
BG had that delayed fireball right? The one you can cast over and over, rest, cast over and over, and then provoke the fight?
I don't know if it had Delayed Fireball, but it had Skull Trap which is basically the same thing.
If I can beat a dragon by having [strike]Yoshimo[/strike] whoever-the-thief-is set up traps for an hour and then provoking him, I'm going to be slightly annoyed. Or excited, I'm not sure which.

Even better: Everyone can set traps, not just Rogues. It's a skill, not a Talent.
The gamespot video review says the PS3 version looks better and has shorter load times than 360. I'm starting to wish I ordered the ps3 version, though I'm sure either one will be good.

Yet both shall be inferior to the almighty PC version.
Well the graphics would probably be the same since my only PC is my laptop. And my comfy couch and 52 inch screen beat the 15 inch laptop screen and crappy walmart chair.

They are doing an incredible job of creating a world history here. It's almost like GRRM's novels where they only tended to focus on Westeros, and you were clamoring to read about the other lands - this is whats going on here. Ferelden is an awesome place, but the way they are hyping up the history of the other lands
especially the Tiventirum Imperium - pretty much the folks responsible for the Blight centuries ago
Makes you want that expansion right now.
How do you do an expansion covering events that happened ages ago though?

I keep getting Steam pop ups telling me it's finished downloading Dragon Age: Origins.
As far as I can tell, I finished doing that yesterday and Steam isn't actually downloading anything before it tells me this.
Why is it mocking me?
Even worse, I was digging around in the Steam folder and found the soundtrack and wallpapers, but the soundtrack wouldn't play and I couldn't view the wallpapers. I get that the game doesn't unlock for another 15 or so hours, but that's just mean.
This evening I had nothing to do so I drove around to a few stores to see if anyone broke street date. Maybe if I was really lucky I could find a collector's edition as well. First I head over to Best Buy. I see an empty space in the computer game section, so I ask one of the blue polos if they have any in the back already and maybe they could let me have one early. No dice. Then I head over to Target They have a spot, and a price tag on the shelf already. Surely that means they have one! I ask a red shirt, and he says no, that is just for tomorrow. Cockteases. Finally I decide to head for the Gamestop across the street at the mall. I have to hurry, it's 8:45 and the store closes at 9. I jump in the car and try to haul ass over there, but I get stuck behind some old lady trying to turn left across traffic, which usually takes about 10 minutes at this parking lot. FUCK! I throw it in reverse and head for another exit. I get across and park. Now it's 8:52, and the Gamestop isn't really close to the parking lot, so I have to get moving. I can't really run though, I have a leg injury from lifting weights so I kind have have this trot-skip hybrid. Luckily the mall is about to close so there aren't to many people around to see gimp around for a video game. I manage to get to the store at like 8:59 and slip in JUST before they close the door AND OH FUCK YES JESUS LOOK WHAT I FIND WAITING FOR ME ON THE SHELF!

Who cares? It's just a ripoff of The Witcher anyways.
Yes, I am determined to run that joke into the center of the earth.

Geralt in the 12 Witching Witchers.
On the 12th day of Waiting gave to me: 12 WITCHERS WITCHING! 11 FIRST DAY DLCs! 10 TEMPLARS STABBING!...
Trying to decide what sort of character to create for my first playthrough.
I tend to enjoy making my very first character in any given RPG a facsimile of myself in the game world, and roleplay making decisions I would make in such situations. For me, it deepens the sense of exploration for the first go-round.
So I'm deciding between Warrior and Rogue. I'm going into the game as blind as possible, so I don't know all the ins and outs of the subclasses and whatnot. Warrior because the old sword and board style is so fun to play, but it's also very vanilla, and I'm leaning heavily towards bard because it suits my real personality better (not the backstabbing, spying aspects, mind you -- more the musician, eloquent speech and non-balls-out fighter aspects).
But with both Zevran and Leliana both being rogues, I don't want to gimp my potential group line-ups, and I do want some variety in combat options. Hmmm.
Edit: I wonder how well a sword and shield-wielding Bard would play.
I'm wondering how well roleplaying will work out in this game. I tend to get stopped up by mechanical limitations. Sometimes it's just the lack of appropriate dialogue options, sometimes it's "I have to do WHAT to get the exceedingly useful ability/item?"
1. polish folk hero class that picks swamp flowers and sewer mushrooms for +1 damage?
N: character creator doesn't even allow for true albinos
2. tits?
N: claudia black just tribs in her walmart underwear
3. can i ride a dragon?
N: dragons just wait around getting whacked like a meat pinata while you spam heals and curse at your druid for not speccing bear form
4. cool sidekicks?
N: model u.n.: three bitches, a flaming homo, a vanilla knight, a cranky midget, a rock and a blonde blacksican
5. ohhh yeah
Y: chicka chicka
the more i read about the barbarian origin, the more pissed i am that it got cut. my only possible origin is that my character is somebody else's little brother. that is humiliating.
i bet his dad and brother die and his village gets burned to the ground, what a tweeest
I've always hated using rogues or making rogues as characters in these types of RPGs. It always seemed like a giant waste of time to get in the right place for a backstab or set up traps forcing you to lure the monsters too them.
Maybe its my personality that is pro-efficiency when killing shit as much as possible and as soon as possible. Without any real spoilers, is the rogue in Dragon Age much different?

Mine shipped today from Reno, with estimated delivery of tomorrow.
As far as I can tell, I finished doing that yesterday and Steam isn't actually downloading anything before it tells me this.

Don't Do It!

Pancake, you're forgetting about the possibility of even MORE Dragon Age in the future.
That will be held back for 6 months so Biowhore can charge us Texas...the bastards.
OH MY GOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.
You should have gotten the PC version.
Edit: beaten
Sell your TV and buy a new computer.
Where is this review you speak of?
But I could never do it in time at this point!

A rogue can't learn any of the sword and shield talents, so I doubt trying to use shields as a rogue would work very well.
