Rushed through 2 assignments I had due on monday and tuesday and managed to get to rage and played DAO. Game is great. Only played for 15/20 minutes. I love the mabari war hound, has great personality. I played the rogue and human noble. For talents/skills I picked poison making, dual wield specialization and dirty fighting. Kick some rat ass for some fun.

Only thing which I struggled a bit with was position the camera. Couldn't remember the controls of how to position it and didn't have time to check all options. I felt the game played better in the bg style view, didn't like the up close wasd controls and preferred the bg click and move style.

A complaint of mine was the wiring of the mouse at the convention was too tight not allow you to freely move the mouse, this impeded gameplay for me.

Definitely going to be playing a spoiled brat noble on 6 November. Can't wait.
 
Can't wait for this either! I've been craving a replacement for BG for quite some time now, something with a good storyline that you won't finish in a couple of days.
Christmas is going to be good this year!

That early on in the game I didn't have the necessary tools and ingredients to make poison. But you can select trap making and poison in the tree skill.

Battle was easy but I did set it to easy since I just wanted to try out the game. The mabari war hound made quick work of the rats.
 
I also gave it a bash was fun :O hehe CANT wait for the game!
