please, I only played the original Dragon Age: Origins three times because of the lack of NG+ (as opposed to the 16+ times of ME1 and the 12+ times of ME2)

I am not gonna start the age old discussion about wether or not the feature is a cornerstone or not, but, the basic point remains, it is a very easy feature to implement ( usually)...it is completely optional so it will NEVER ruin anyone's game while enhancing replayability for those who like it and most importantly the PC players will just GIVE the feature to themselves through the debug console leaving the Xbox/PS3 players with nothing....so please, now that there's a LOT OF TIME LEFT in the the developement cycle, please Bioware Devs.....implement NG+ in DA2

New Game Plus worked in the ME design. I don't see it working in the DA design.

I'd love a NG+ feature, because in DAO I tended to play through characters more than once, but that means reconstructing the entire face of my character and getting everything just right (I'm awkward like that =/).

Only if it's closer to ME2's NG+.

In ME1 it completely made fighting trivial, whenever I could avoid fighting I did. Running through everything (only to get riflebutted to death by Geth Destroyers and Krogans :D).

That was probably true of Origins, but since DA2 seems to start the same way regardless of the character I can't see that it's that much of an problem.

If that's the problem couldn't you just make a save at the start of the game and reload that if you wanted to replay the character?

Em, no... It worked in Demon's Souls, but it just doesn't fit in DA.

It depends on what you want specifically, if it's just a matter of tinkering with enemy scaling a bit for a NG+, that's relatively simple to implement yes, if you want a complete re-itemization that's a lot of extra work, I'd rather they didn't allocate their time on.

I still want them to implement NG+ in the original game. Playing through the entire game scaled to a level 20+ character would be so much more fun.

It doesn't "fit?" Give me a break. It's got no effect on the story. If it's there and you don't like it, don't use it. It's not hurting you any.

that defeats the point of carrying over XP skills and whatnot....

New Game Plus' have traditionally been a legit cheat. It worked in ME2 because all it did was give you money and resources. ME2 was really not based on a leveling system.

And let you start the game as a level 30 character. The fact that it didn't let you keep your Paragon/Renegade bars was really stupid, though. That's the main reason most people wanted a NG+ in the first place: to have no constraints in how they played their character.

yeah, that was dumb, I am still waiting for a dev to justify it fully

You CAN play through DAO entirely with a Level 25 character, from your first trip to the Korcari Wilds and onward.

it does not work after installing the patch, it "forces" your companions levelling giving you nearly no control over it and it does not carry over your items

so no that is not really a viable option

But ME2 was not based on the traditional leveling system. DA is.

Yeah, I was talking more about simply replaying a character rather than NG+.

Your health and abilities went up as you leveled.  You leveled by getting experience points.  What part of that is not traditional?
