I know DA2 hasnt come out yet but im thinking of the DA3 If we continue the road of one character ( which i dont mind at all) will we be playing a dwarf or elf as i can not see my self doing that in origins it was find as i could go back to my human. I need to connect to my character elves and dwarves are awesome but i cant connect to them well compared to humans and i am 6 foot 5 i need to play a human or a Qunari.

This is just my opinion

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem.

[Eski.Moe]

No.

[andar91]

I'm 99 percent sure that if we still play as one character, it'll be a human one.

[Sharn01]

No

[marshalleck]

If I'm forced to play an elf or dwarf I probably won't buy the game.

[Riosred]

I have only ever wanted to play as human also....never even tried the other beginnings but people liked them so maybe give a choice again....if not I wouldn't want to be forced any other race then human....

And if he were extremely butch.

I would definitely be taking a pass on that game.

[Cespar]

but DWARFS ARE SO FREAKING COOL WITH THEIR SHORTNESS, plus we r humans in real life so why play as the samething, but sometimes i can barely seen dwarf as the love interest or a leader, anybody else share this same thought?

[wollert]

I think the concept of playing a dwarf with a single character game wont happen for DA, seeing as they´d be forced to take out the option to play a mage.



I would not mind a Elf PC in the future though

[Gabey5]

honestly i dont care either way

[hart37]

Well the only times I've finished Origins were as an Elf or Dwarf, more Dwarf than anything else. So I wouldn't mind playing as either one again. I personally am annoyed as hell that we can only play human this time. Although I doubt they'll be a DA game soon where you only play as an Elf or Dwarf. It's either going to stay with the new DA:2 format of being human or revert back choosing one of 3, maybe 4 races if Qunari is ever considered.

Well I had a problem playing a noble in DAO because I did not want to be a over privileged jerk so that left me with either being a human mage or a non-human warrior. Since I wanted to be a dual wielding warrior that left me with Elf (Oh yeah I also have a problem being a dwarf). Anyway of course I do not want to be a fruity male elf so I decided to go with a female elf because if I am going to go with a character that is not like me at all I am going to go all the way to a different gender.

Of course the second time around I was a human arcane warrior so that is where I am. Of course both times were very entertaining because the first play-through I did what my character would have done and the second I did what I would have done.

Anyway Bioware is aware that most people who play the game played humans (They even quoted some statistics in one of these threads) and I seriously doubt they would release a game with either just elf or dwarf as your only option. But I certainly did appreciate the option in DAO.

Edit: Hu go figure.  Did not realize **** counted as a swear word.

Your human noble in DAO can be remarkably egalitarian.

I agree with the Human nobel. The character was rich, cocky and such a toss. Another reason why I didn't play as a human, I like playing Rogue or warrior. Maybe if there was a commoner option in Origins I would have considered it, especially if they were cockney

[LexXxich]

Imagination, people. Imagination and options. Limiting playable races to just one shows a pre-justice, whatever this one race is.

[HolyAvenger]

you can RP the human noble anyway you like...

He certainly could be if you made him that way but I still would have a problem with a bourgeoisie upbringing and the first play through I had no idea really.

A what?

limiting the character to one race or more importantly, a more clearly defined identity can also result in a tighter and more interesting narrative than one which has to be watered-down and simplified to make it "one size fits all."

How could a nobleman have a bourgeoisie upbringing?  Wouldn't it be aristocratic, if anything?

[mellifera]

Unfortunately there is no way that BioWare would ever force the player to be a dwarf PC, no matter how superior dwarves are to the rest >.>

Ha! Very true my good man!

And yet your most played characters were dwarves? Not dwarf noble I hope, since they were far more arrogant and condescending than the human noble. Hysterically so in some cases, such as addressing others indirectly through your right hand man.  You could play them pretty decently as well, though. 

Anyways clearly you did not spend much time at all with human noble, since you say you prefer to play warriors and rogues--that's all the human noble could be! The human mage was not nobility, at least not in a practical sense.

[Sharn01]

The one time I tried a human noble I threw in the towel when I got to the rats in the kitchen. Having played several other origins, throwing the rats out was to me a giant inside joke saying "Welcome to the overused, generic human origin".

Elf was always my favorite. As a matter of fact, my first playthrough was a Elf Mage. Like the first poster said, its easier to connect with a character that closer resembles myself, and I'm definitely not an imposing figure.
