- And secondly, play the free flash game Dragon Age: Journeys to unlock even more stuff in-game (plus it's pretty fun, kinda like a Dragon Age version of King's Bounty in case you've played it).

 

You can get items to Origins by playing that flash game? How does it work exactly?

You have the same account for both games.  You unlock the items playing the flash game, and they automatically transfer to your account for downloading.

One of my favorite parts so far..  the barkeep in Lothering. 

I clicked on his "rumors" dialogue option to see what he had to say and it was fairly interestring. 
I clicked again because it was an option and got a new response....
So I clicked again and got a different response entirely....

I was expecting the standard barkeep 1-3 recycled rumors and then an "I've told you all I know" response but I kept clicking and he kept spouting new rumors.  They were entertaining as well. 

I stopped clicking after 10 or 12 I think.  I wanted to get back to the main game but I was surely impressed with the time that was put into that small aspect

I am going to finish the game tomorrow [Hard mode! ]. I am at the final battle already.

I just finished Urn of Andraste's ashes (or something like that).  That a long run!  I don't want to give anything away, but wait until you see who you fight in the Gauntlet!  They will look eerily familar......

I spent 4 hours playing last night through that quest and a bunch of side stuff, exploring the country side through the map stuff after.  After 50 hours game says I'm not even 50% done yet.  Not even close.

Fabulous story, voicing, character animations (facial especially).  Love the tactics scripting you can do.

Whilst I generally love Dragon Age, it has some major AI issues, and I'm pretty sure I ruined it by playing through as a mage first time through, for most of the game my party consisted of 3 mages and Alistair and it got faintly repetitive, it took me one spell from each mage to kill every White enemy on screen without being hurt, then a single further spell to kill any remaining yellows, Orange enemies were harder but not much due to aforementioned awful, Awful AI (basically you can make melee enemies chase one character whilst it runs around in circles, whilst the other members of your party sit and shoot from a distance).

In summary, Fun game, Overpowered Magic, poor AI.

Also whilst trying to avoid spoilers, do female characters get a version of Morrigan's deal at the end?

Allister and Morrigan, though Allister can also marry you... makes it a little kinky xP

I think I found another Voyager cast member doing a voice. There's a dwarf merchant in the dwarven city named Garin. His voice sounds suspiciously like Neelix who was played by an actor named Ethan Phillips. Also if you look at the dwarf's face it even looks like Ethan Phillips minus the Neelix make-up and with a shaved head. If you've ever seen him outside of Voyager you'll probably see the resemblance too.

Can anyone find out if it's him?

You are like me Rave, I've been playing like 26 hours, yet it says I'm only like 18% done with the game.  Course, I like to explore every inch of the map, and talk to every person.  There are a LOT of hidden side quests, and quests from people that have no marker above them either.
