I gather that some people do not like the scaling that was present in DA:O. I personally had no problem with it, as I felt that it helped maintain a consistent level of challenge without being overpowering. I'm curious as to why people love it, hate it, and whether they want it, a similar system, or a completely different system implemented in DA2.

I think some people don't like it just because a lot of people like high level caps, but with the way this game has it's stats, skills, etc set up I think the DA:O way worked perfectly.
I must say that, though I liked the scaling system in DA:O, I really hope we can go to a higher level in DA2.
I'd rather have encounter scaling (ie the number and sometimes quality of your opponents changes based on your level), instead of the DAO system, it's more coherent this way and it really makes you feel how your character increases in power because he's able to handle more and tougher foes than before instead of stronger versions of the same.
Boss characters and otherwise unique enemies can be exceptions of course, but the sword fodder that you meet over and over again shouldn't get stronger as you progress through the game.

had zero issue with DA:O or Awakening level scaling and hope they keep it the same!
I like levels, tells you were you are in a sence.

No, what you said doesn't make any sense, trust me. I even underlined it for you.

If it's too easy, crank the difficulty level up a little bit

Level scaleing
Im playing a game and meet a orc early on when im level 3 and hes orange to me
in 2nd game I meet orc when im level 20 and hes orange to me
Thats level scaleing and EXACTLY WHAT I ****G SAID
His colour (white, yellow, orange) doesn't have anything to do with his level, you know. Just saying. 
Well to give you a random example maybe at level 5 you get to fight 3 weak bandits and 1 tough bandit and at level 15 you get 1 bandit leader, 3 tough bandits and 5 weak bandits. They don't all scale up but some do. If it's only a direct upgrade then indeed it makes no difference with the current system.

Item scaling bothered me way more than level scaling. Fact is, your character doesn't literally grow twenty times more powerful over the course of the adventure -- so who really gives a crap if enemies level up with you? My warriors can't literally make people fall over on their asses with a cry, either. People guarding the back entrances to warehouses in the Elven Alienage, however, should never be wearing silverite armour. Nor should every mundane guard be decked out in dragonbone, or have several sovereigns in their pockets.That's the kind of thing that ticks me off -- though some degree of encounter scaling would be preferable, too. No-one feels heroic and badass being challenged by generic street toughs.
