We already know that she is not a dragon with utter certainty. There was a game called Dragon Age: Origins in which that was made clear. Why are we discussing this?
Oh, and I loved the demo. Power-Flemmeth is fucking awesome. The combat was a hell lot more tuned. I was both happy with the result and sad to realize that moving away from the BG2 paradigm made DA better.
Because in Origins you suppsodely kill her too (if you go that route). That doesn't mean everything is as it seems. She may be a dragon. She may be something we haven't seen yet. I am just saying that she is not what everyone thinks she is (my opinion). Plus I agree with Blackjack it's more of a "don't try to figure me out." I am just going to add to that with "because you can't handle the truth."
That's why I prefaced it, smarty pants. Logic would say that a skill in the 2H tree would require 2H weapon, BUT none of the text (that I saw) said it had to and I checked a couple of wiki's and they had the same info.

I like the theory that Flemeth is the sixth Old God, or at least is possessed thereby. Either way, she's important, and she kicks ass. I hope her outfits keep getting sexier and more creative.
So, someone managed to get into the kiss files (I know), and apparently confirms the bi companions as Isabela and Anders based on the fact that they have kiss files for both genders.
edit: okay I guess Merrill and Fenris' files weren't named? So at least those two are bi. But yeah I doubt they all will be.
A quick search suggests that £28.89 for the PC version is about as cheap as it goes (HMV = Same, The Hut = £29.85, Direct 2 Drive = £29.95, EA Store £34.99,) - I have made an assumption this one is what you are looking for but a quick search on the same sites should also net you Xbox/PS3 if that is your preference.
In other news, the Demo download is currently hovering around 800,000 which is impressive just before the weekend rush.

Possible. Though I do like to think that there is some measure of truth to the story we are told. I think DA:O has three or four variations of the same story. Leliana's version, Morrigans, the codex, and I think there is one more. Each is slightly different, but the basics are the same. Flemeth was possessed by a demon. I'd be kinda disappointed if they did a complete deus ex machina or retcon on the whole story. But I'm sure the truth is much different that what we are told as players, with a few elements slightly the same.
After all, they say the best lies are hidden in truths.
Personally, I don't think it was a traditional demon that we see in game. Maybe something far more rare or perhaps something that's neither ambivalent or nefarious.

You're a gentleman and a scholar my good man. Thankyou kindly.
And yes. The PC version is the one I'm after. I'm not some console heathen, that would be ridiculous.

I agree with you that there are probably some truths to the legend. However I don't think Flemeth is exactly controlled by the demon she made a deal with. I think it's more similar to the deal Wynne has with her spirit. Where she is "possessed" by the demon, but she's still in complete control.

Lets not forget some of the stupid unpatched bugs DA:O still has.
Try making a female character with your sound off and it crashes the game. Took me forever to figure this out, two full reinstalls of the game and I lost a bunch of mods I had installed. Ugh,
Did they ever actually fix the memory leak?

Not as far as I can see. I'm up to the newest patch on the PC and it still slows down consistently as I play. Restarting fixes, of course.

Heathen? How dare you sir, some of us merely enjoy the comfort of a nice reclining couch!
God I wish I could move this damn computer and use it on my couch...
1. Unplug PC
2. Move it
3. Plug into TV
If I had a fetish for couches and owned a TV I'd do it that way.
Eh, too much of a hassle. I just played the PC demo yet again, a followed that up with a Steam preorder. Mind made up. Now I should at least try to finish up Awakenings.
I would personally recommend a comfortable reclining chair, a firm mousepad, and an HD monitor running at around 2/3 full resolution. You get to lean back, things look just as good and are easy on the eyes, and everything runs somewhat faster.
So after replaying the demo yet again, I've discovered that being able to do this has made me rethink my initial want of playing as a sword and board warrior...
Someone make a gif of that moment in the Gamespot live demo where Carver lunges through a door and gibs like five enemies in a vast cloud of blood. It was incredible.
Someone just tell me a sweet little lie and say we get gore like that for all enemies. Whirlwind just isn't the same when you aren't dismembering, nor is backstabbing without a meaty explosion.
I have never considered anything like this before, but with everyone talking about who will be in your party, and Bioware actually balancing it pretty well (numbers of classes) I am going to consider who I will have before the game comes out.
I am going to start by who I won't have. Aveline looks really boring and standard, nothing exciting about her really. Sebastion can go fuck himself, arrogant bastard. Whiny sister and brother can stay away as well. That leaves Merrill, Fenris, Anders and Varric, I will see who I pick when I get the game I guess.

You forgot the ass and boobs. Supposedly there's another companion attached to them.

There were flat chested women, but they offended the Maker, who then twisted their bodies into what we now know as Darkspawn.

This sounds like the recipe for religious war.
Also, the plot for DA 3.
I agree with you that there are probably some truths to the legend. However I don't think Flemeth is exactly controlled by the demon she made a deal with. I think it's more similar to the deal Wynne has with her spirit. Where she is "possessed" by the demon, but she's still in complete control.
Andraste's figure is rather.... urn-ish.
