I generally like the game; I'm also playing the downloaded version. By the way, how do you become a battlemage? And has anyone actually leveled one up? After all, a mage in armor and with a sword will have to pay more for spells.

I also wanted to create a battlemage because I found a great sword for him, and it's just cool. Have you already found bottles (phylacteries) in different ruins? You need to talk to them, and then access to specializations is unlocked. Specifically for a battlemage, you need a bottle from the elven ruins, but I'm not sure.

P.S. If I'm not mistaken, it's easiest to play as a mage, + there will be two of you.

Actually, there are three of you, but yes, you're not wrong.

I'm playing as a human warrior, and I'd like a specialization related to the military profession as well.

Then listen:
1) Templar - taught by Alistair when you have enough influence.
2) Knight - given after healing Earl Redcliffe.
3) Berserker - taught by a dwarf companion. If you don't have him in your party yet, you'll get him later.
4) Slayer (if I'm not mistaken) - given if you join the "new" cult of Andraste (the quest to find the holy urn).
When I say "given" and "taught," I mean that the opportunity to take it appears at the next level up. Again, I'm not sure, but Knight and Slayer are mutually exclusive options.

Where do we go?
Where do we end up when we save the world?

You guys have piqued my interest. I decided to download this game after all. I downloaded it. So far, I like it, although I've only played for five minutes. I started the game as an elf. I was surprised by how they portrayed the relationship between humans and elves. They are enemies. That's a bit strange. But even if they are enemies, the fact that elves are also slaves is even more perplexing.
Overall, the game looks appealing, I'll play it longer and then I'll write more about it.

You've just been brainwashed by Tolkien and his followers. In reality, this idea isn't that unusual. You haven't even seen the local mages yet...

Well, I didn't completely wash them out, but let's just say I gave them a little rinse. ;)
By the way, if elves lived in our world, we would definitely be enemies with them.

Guys, buy licenses, don't support piracy:smile51:

Alistair is such a jerk; he completely stopped talking to me normally after I killed the demon child, the son of the king's brother.
And if I hadn't done that, the same would have happened with Wynn, after she used blood magic... I had to make a sacrifice.

Guys, buy licenses, don't support piracy.

Patches aren't installed on licensed versions, but they are on pirated ones. So, who should I support? But the key NPCs are voiced well, that's true. And the non-key ones... well, who cares, really. I care more about having a beautiful voice for Morrigan and Alistair than about some minor issues with a character I see for the last time in my life.

Alistair is such a jerk, he completely stopped talking to me normally after I killed the demon-child, the king's brother's son.
And if I hadn't done that, the same would have happened with Wynne, after she used blood magic... I had to make a sacrifice.

It seems like a normal, interesting dilemma, but no! There's an ideal way to develop the events. If you have saves, you can load them and look for it. And yes, Alistair will be upset with you in any case, except for the ideal one.

It seems like a normal, interesting dilemma, but no! There is a perfect scenario here. If you have saves, you can load them and search. And yes, Alistair will be upset with you in any scenario except the perfect one.

It could have been, but I've already gone too far. Let it be as it is. :) Yesterday, I encountered a truly formidable opponent, the toughest one I've had to fight (not a story-related one):
a very powerful undead creature with its retinue in the forest, near the opening of the tomb (this is where the trees come to life and where the crazy mage lives in a stump, whom I also had to kill). And while I managed to defeat the retinue, I couldn't defeat this undead creature; all healing potions were used, all elixirs, all super attacks, it was a disaster... a demon!

Yeah :) I just noticed this thread...
The game is simply amazing! Undoubtedly, the best RPG of 2009! I don't regret spending 150 hours of real time on it. It felt like I was immersed in a real world that exists parallel to ours. Leliana, Alistair... It still seems like they are real people (especially Leliana :))
Of course, there were some flaws, but they were rare and you can easily overlook them.
The game didn't cause any particular problems during the playthrough. One memorable moment was the fight with Kothren! It was really intense (it seems to be the only superboss in the game). If you tried to kill him, you know what I'm talking about.
Yes, I played as a noble human. I tried playing as a city elf, but I gave up because I needed a break to forget the details. And then I can visit this beautiful and inspiring world with an open heart again!

Added after 12 minutes

What are your parties like? I think it would be effective to level up a destruction mage, with Alistair, Wynne, and some rogue in the team. A warrior with a two-handed weapon doesn't make a very good tank, at least not for me.

I played through the entire game with Alistair (shield + sword), Wynne, and Leliana. I almost never took other characters with me. And the main character, Aidan, was a master with a two-handed sword. A real combo - petrification/freezing + critical hit :)

The game didn't present any major challenges during the playthrough. What I remember most is the fight with Coutren! It was truly intense (it seems to be the only superboss in the game). If you tried to kill her, you'll understand what I mean.

Well, I played without patches on normal difficulty, so every battle felt like the last one for me (: Of the bosses, the dragon from the quest with the urn seemed the scariest; I didn't even try to defeat Coutren.

Yes, I completely agree that it's a truly living world! And what about the dialogues!:smile20:

I remember how I resolved the situation between a young, lovestruck elf and an unyielding elf in the elven village…:D After talking to them, I chose unconventional answers. :o Now they don't want to talk to me, and the quest is still active.:(

I'm currently playing with the following characters: Dmitry, Alistair, Wynne, and Leliana
Dmitry and Alistair are in melee combat, Wynne heals and casts spells, and Leliana shoots with a bow.

Okay, I messed up the quest "The Mage's Treasure" (Juggernaut Armor):

Turns out, you need to:

First, find a plaque in a sarcophagus in one of the side rooms near the ghost of the boy. Then, perform the actions according to the entry in the codex. If the action is performed incorrectly, a spirit will appear. The algorithm:
Examine the fountain to start its dialog // Examine the fountain to start its dialog
Fill the earthen jug with water // Fill the earthen jug with water
Leave the pool alone // Leave the pool alone
Examine the altar to start its dialogue // Examine the altar to start its dialogue
Place the filled earthen jug on top of the altar // Place the filled earthen jug on top of the altar
Kneel before the altar and pray // Kneel before the altar and pray
Examine the earthen jug on the altar // Examine the earthen jug on the altar
Take a single sip from the water in the jug // Take a single sip from the water in the jug
Take the earthen jug // Take the earthen jug
Leave the altar alone // Leave the altar alone
Examine the fountain to start its dialog // Examine the fountain to start its dialog
Dump the water in the jug back into the pool // Dump the water in the jug back into the pool

And I was fighting the demon, having violated the above conditions...:(
