All I know is that she casts spells that a fallen Paladin should never be able to cast. Blade barrier, Harm, etc.
To add insult to injury, in HotU she then loses all those spells and returns to being a crappy paladin.
What do they mean with this? All it took to having a good relationship with party members was showering them with gifts, even if one acted contrary to their desires during quests.
NWN 2's & KOTOR 2's influence system had DA beaten.
The game does look pretty bad compared to Dungeon Siege and Warcraft III, which came out in the same year. That is, as long as one doesn't zoom in too much.
Drakensang: River of Time was best classical RPG of 2010, Divinity 2 best action RPG.
I enjoyed Two Worlds 2 as well, but it has a pretty lightweight story that totally descends into madness near the end.
EDIT: Venetica is a pretty interesting game as well.
If this DLC policy continues, I won't ever buy a BioWare game on release anymore but just wait for a GOTY edition containing all extra content. Is there already such a version for DA:O, btw?
