Short Answer: Yes. People swear. Some people are very crude. Some people are colourful and drop the F-bomb every other word. It happens.

Short Essay Response: If we're bringing "but we must change it! for the children!" into it, I need to admit that I played Fallouts 1 and 2 when I was....10? 11? In the span between 4th and 7th grade, regardless. They're much more obscene and dark, in my opinion, than either Dragon Age title is. Some kids can deal with profanity maturely, some can't. Depends on the kid. Not everyone is going to take profanity and go do the acts described, or go around repeating it.

The comment about being flipped ****** over ass isn't supposed to be "funny", at least not in the traditional sense. It's supposed to be something shocking that the Isabela character says. There's no wit there, it's humor entirely for shock value -- which is what Isabela's character does.

And this is dark fantasy. It's not a nice high fantasy where everyone plays nice with each other and gets to go home and share hot chocolate. It's a dark fantasy where everyone is getting flipped T over A and being hammered like a bent nail and going back to the tavern to get drunk after they go fight that dragon.

My opinion is that this is a question of "does it fit with the character" and "is it in there artistically, or is it forced in there in order to appeal to gamers who like that". I would answer yes and artistically respectively.

I completly agree.  I'm 12 turning 13 and i play DAO and DA2 and i don't go around swearing or anything.  My dad plays it also.  Some of the language is not supposed to be funny.  It's for expression, if someone is mad, irritated and so on.

I have no problem with swearing and don't care if it's in games/movies/books/etc. However, I did notice that this game seemed to have more than previous Bioware games. It seemed like a distinct stylistic change, and I did wonder why Bioware chose to make this decision at this time with this game.

Like I said, couldn't care less and not offended, but it did stick out to me when I was playing it -- "Huh, this is new for Bioware. I wonder why."

I just wanted to chime in to say that I found the writing in this game to be some of Bioware's best, and the use of profanity to be completely appropriate to the setting and suitable to the intended audience. Anyone that cannot handle the profanity would also not be able to handle the gore and sexual themes present. On of my absolute favorite lines in the game comes from a conversation between Merrill and Varric which ends with her saying, in a weak Varric impersonation, "but he didn't start his stories with 'No ####', there I was. . .".
