Playing in the demo, the combat seems much more slick and... clean?

It does and I like the way they remodeled the Darkspawn to look a lot more like the faction races they originate from and the process of their corruption.

Flemeth was sporting some nice cleavage as well. For an old dragon chick, she looked rather delish.

Demo had too much combat and not enough talking for me.

I don't like how "overpowered" every character with a 2-handed sword appears to be. I mean come on, at least in DAO they attacked at a relatively normal speed.

Although, I do find something about this new one a lot more charming than the first. Definitely will buy once I have the money.

I'm sure that it was made easy just for the sake of the demo so that people wouldn't be turned off by the challenge settings before the game comes out. I'm sure they have the game itself set up like the old one with many difficulty levels to satisfy your concern.

I probably used the wrong word. It's not really the difficulty I'm worried about. Just the fact that when using a 2-handed sword, I'd expect to, y'know, swing pretty slowly. It just reminds me of all those overpowered characters you see in JRPGs.

I'm thinking of picking up Origins so I can understand the story but I've heard Origins on the console is a dimmer experience.

I have Origins on console and never tried it on a pc, and I doubt that the only real difference is the graphics being a little lower and a slight change to control schemes for the controller. I loved the game on console and didn't feel like I was missing out. I felt like I had a better advantage with party handling than I would via PC but I'm sure it's just getting used to the controls.
