For those who loved Baldur's Gate II...

Check out Dragon Age: Origins. I was a BIG BG2 fan and have been disappointed its taken so long for something like it to resurface. Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights were just never able to come close. Check it out. I personally can't wait for Nov. 3 now.

Is it from the same people?

I looked at Dragon Age, and it just doesn't look as good as BG2 was. =(

Yes a lot of the same people that worked on BG2 are working on Dragon Age. Even the people that took part in making Minsc and his ferocious hamster are involved.

One thing that made BG2 so great was its depth of both story and characters. Dragon Age is attempting that. I say "attempt" because we won't know until it comes out. Still, from what I have read and studied I think it will be a great game. I just hope I am right.

Cool. But, the reason I loved IWD so much was because of the fact that you could customize your whole party. That was great.

It has been announced that the retail version of Dragon Age will not use the SecuRom copy protection software used by other EA games, opting instead for a standard disc check.

Might be worth a try

SecuRom = Evil

I personally liked the party interaction seen in BG2 and supposedly that element is increased in Dragon Age

i keep forgetting that bioware had part in BG2. I dont want to burst your bubble or anything, but i dont see how you think Dragon Age is going to be anything like your precious Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn. Gameplay wise it will be completely different. and Story wise i think its going to be a little off. I could be entirely mistaken though.

too bad the game looks EXACTLY like Neverwinter Nights 2

I'm currently replaying NWN2 and i must say i enjoy it, not nearly as much as i did BG or BG2. it's still a fun rpg tho.
