Does the guide tell you about the branching paths in the quests? I might go to bestbuy and read some of the guide without buying it, lol.

It vaguely does. For instance it will tell you what/who you can side with and what the outcome/rewards are. But it can be kind of confusing. It really doesn't explain how it will impact the games endings or the game itself as a whole, but it let's you know what your options are. The maps are nice, and it tells you where chests/codex's, etc are located. Sidequests are located in the back, but some of the descriptions are pretty basic. Overall I'd say it's a pretty decent guide, plus I like it for bathroom reading material.

My roomy bought the game the other night. He enjoys it and it looks fun (as I've been watching) but he says it'd be better on PC so he'd have multiple objects without having to cycle through everything on the controller.
Multiple characters with different stories base on who you choose. Seems customizable (at least my roomy has a funky red beard he said 'he chose').

It's more of a red quad-beard. Hideous imo. Hell, if you've got a flaming red beard, why not braid it into two halves? No, not near cool enough. Braid it into four quarters. Ah, success.

This game is very much like KotOR, and if you didn't like KotOR or Jade Empire, this game is not for you. It's somewhat not for me...as I didn't like KotOR 1, but I liked 2, and only played Jade Empire for 10 minutes before I lost interest.
All of the flaws that were in KotOR are in DA:Origins. Aside from being too chatty for me, the combat has an element of luck that can REALLY determine if you win or lose. Mages are OP, and you will find Morrigan your best friend to help with the damage. *POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT* I haven't played the game through yet, but I'm speculating Flemmeth to be the Archdemon/dragon. Don't correct me if this is wrong/right, just a hunch.

I've heard alot of good things about this game from my friends. I will definitely be torrenting it when I get home tonight. From what I hear, the warrior is nearly impossible to play and mages are OP as hell.

do not like. not saying it's a bad game but i don't like the style. played it 5 minutes and turned it off. Somebody had a good point that the style is like KOTOR 1 and not 2. I like the KOTOR 2 setup much better.
The way over the top just seems weird to me. |

Hm... I want to try this game but I couldn't get into KOTOR 1. Never played 2. Well, it's not like I won't torrent this to try. So KOTOR 2 was better than 1? Too bad I missed out.

My biggest problem is the length. I've put probably 30 hours into it, and I'm maybe 25% through.

I've played through the game twice now, once as a Human Noble Warrior, and the second time as a Elf (Alienage) Rogue. The first time I played through on Normal, the second time on hard.
It's interesting how the two classes are quite different from each other. I actually liked using the Human Noble a lot for the influence he has at the end in the tavern where the other Human Nobles are. Making good choices there really changed the Landsend Meet. I never really liked ranged classes, and I played as a melee rogue. I found the game easier (although it was a learning experience the first time), playing as a Rogue. Being able to lock pick and steal made making money much easier; and finding stronger weapons/armor through lockpicking or having a high coercion/cunning was extremely useful. However, there were some instances (trying not to give spoilers) where the Warriors higher Constitution and multiple abilities to stun made single character areas much easier. Being able to use Taunt/Threaten helped keep NPC's alive easier (such as the battles at Redcliffe, the Mayor (forgot his name, Ser Perth, and others). Overall, I'd actually say the Warrior is the better class, since he can control the enemies focus more, pulling them off your mage after (s)he did mass damage to multiple enemies getting their attention. Are mages over powered? They can be...with their ability to stun, control, instant high damage abilities. One of my favorite tactics was pressing H to hold position on all characters, taking control of the mage, opening a door but not aggro'ing anything (open from out of view). Then casting Blizzard. Another tactic for multiple enemies was to have melee characters stand at a door, leaving a little room to get Cone of Cold or something through, only hitting the enemies. With either tactic, I enjoyed using Sleep (instant cast) followed by Waking Nightmare; damages enemies and causes them to sometimes fight for you, instead of against you. However powerful mages are (Grimlock Emissary anyone?), you can take them out pretty quick with a Rogue using Dirty Fighting and backstabs; or a mage of your own with Affliction Hex followed by whatever damage spells you have. My Rogue had access to more things than my Warrior did since I unlocked specializations. I made the Rogue a Ranger and a Duelist. My Warrior was a Champion and a Templar. Templar's have great anti-magic abilities, but the cooldown seems too long. Having 2 Templars works really well though (Alistair + MC). Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this game, and wouldn't mind a 3rd time as a Dwarf Noble Warrior, maybe a Human Mage, or a Dwarf Commoner Rogue. Maybe a Dalish Elf?

I beat the game once, as a elf........on easy, lol. I spammed cone of cold and blizzard and had zero trouble.
The story is just too cliche for me. One man destined to save the world, blah blah, thats literally the oldest story in the world. Overall it did not make me feel like I was playing baldurs gate, but felt like a console rpg. I played it, and moved on.
