That's just great. I get home from riding and sees to my joy that it is done downloading. Only to discover that the file is corrupted. 

I think I'm just going to cry in a corner while I try it again. :crying:

(Oh, and thank you, kind soul who found Fireplanet. 500/kbs now. :blush:)

The game stopped crashing when I changed from DirectX 11 to DirectX 9. The demo was okay... I had already seen it all before but it was nice to play it by myself. Solid demo overall, though as I had feared it feels like I am directing some other person rather than being the person myself. Oh well, still looking forward to it.

Its the voice over player character feature, which creates a disconnect between the player and character. When you normally get into character (role-play), the thoughts, voice, choices, and actions are your own. Once they removed the importance of the player's inner voice, the role-playing aspect of the game had dissolved. You are now controlling the actions of someone else; thus, you are no longer in character (no more role-playing).

"Dragon Age II" is feeling like a first-person shooter with rpg elements, but it lacks the whole inner voice process to the role-playing experience. "SW: TOR" mmo will feel the same way.

Giving the player-character a voice looks good on paper, but seeing it being implemented is a little awkward and disconnecting.

Gah! Now I'm getting the d3dx11_43.dll missing error. I tried using the direct x in the DA2 folder but it doesn't seem to be working. Tried reinstalling a couple times as well...

EDIT:  The direct x install is working but it doesn't fix the problem.


I dont know what to do then :( I got the same error, but when i installed the directx, it solved the problem.

Use the torrent.  The link is on the previous page.  I'm downloading at 1.0 MB/S now!

Really great.
Looks promising. I like the way the story is told and the combat system.

Warrior had the same temperamental controls as the mage. It was a little irritating after awhile. Otherwise, great game. Off to work.

I'll find out soon enough. I made attempts to download from Bioware and pretty sure it counted towards their attempt to get 1,000,000 dls. Already have an EA Account think that's all you need. I'll find out in about 10 mins or so. Heh, I'm excited to play it either way.

If it is crashing or locking up might be due to playing in full screen once i turned that off it worked fine

Horrible game in every aspect. Thanks for the demo, thought. This might be the very first BioWare product I'm skipping, however I still have faith in the Star Wars MMO.

Is this feeling like a first-person shooter with rpg elements a meme?  Like Mass Effect 2, how can the game feel like a first-person shooter?

I don't know what people are smoking when they are saying it feels like a first person shooter. lol?

Anyone who actually dislikes this demo, you should probably stick to playing board games, they seem more your pace.

it feels like a first person shooter? 1: there's no guns. 2: there's no first person 3: you must need your head examined.

seriously, what do you want? awkward warriors and rogues swinging their weapons in super slowmo? you want to take 30 skills that you'll never end up using?

EDIT: Voice actors for player characters don't ruin an RPG game. By that faulty logic, Final Fantasy isn't an RPG series. You don't NEED a silent protagonist to be a role player. You're still choosing what's being said, thus it is still you. You're choosing whether you're a sarcastic wise guy or a douche to everyone

Mass Effect is a 1st Person Shooter?, Hmm I missed that.
