A list for an improved version that I would gladly pay (at a nominal price, having purchased the original game). If that's not possible... an adaptive wish list to what comes next.

1) Reused areas: squash them.

2) City improvements
- Allow options for Hawke to improve parts of the city as years/acts go by (more reasons to be the city Champion).
- Add more detail to the city.

3) Romances
Companions will not take the initiative for romance, or will only do so after a "hint" from the player. It's a game. Realistic or not, this would respect all player preferences.

4) Calibrate the awesome button
- Bloody explosions less frequent and coherent with skills used.
- More skill-related death blow animations.
- No more enemies appearing from thin air or jumping from impossible heights/places.
- Waves: more quality, less quantity.

5) Companion armor remake
Allow "imbuing" option (companion armor is now segmented while still unremovable).
Step 1) Player stumbles upon compatible armor piece for companion, with better stats.
Step 2) Player drags armor piece to correct section of companion armor.
Step 3) Message pops up: "Do you wish to imbue armor? Stats will be overwritten!"
Step 4) Player selects "Yes". New stats are imbued into companion armor. Source armor piece is "destroyed" in the process.
No more static upgrading.

6) More DA: Origins subsequences.

7) Psychic Quests
Add a board with those quests. Activate them on player selection. Hawke now knows what to look for and who to return to.

8) Darkspawn
Less squishy, more variety, more bad**** looking.

9) Runes
Runes can be retrieved. Player no longer worries about adding a good rune to a weapon / armor that will eventually become outdated. Player no longer is a rune "collector" and will instantly become a rune "user".

10) DLC: Lothering
Where it all began. Day to day life of the Hawke family before the escape. A prequel so that the player actually cares about the family.

11) DLC: Female Qunari Companion
Female... Qunari... companion. How awesome is that?

I like a lot of your ideas but I think they should put greater focus on learning from DA2 and creating DA3. Dont' get me wrong, I'd love to see a massive expansion to DA2 (rather than half a dozen half baked DLC's), but they've got a lot of searching for why DA2 received the reception it did..there numbers for DA2 DLC will already be lower than anticipated (due to reviews, word of mouth etc)..better to keep their eyes on the prize and win back the fans they lost AND keep the fans they've gained.

[Uzaik]

I love the ideas, though I doubt any of these will be ever implemented.

[Dubya75]

All sound like pretty good ideas! Let's see, BioWare does have some DLC up their sleeve...

[Zhijn]

The exploding corpse, bodies falling apart and drop to the ground like lego blocks.

So bloody "LOL" everytime it happens.
I would really like to know what went through the devs head when they came up with that partically idea. xD

[Skithus]

The only item I would disagree with on this list would be the idea that the LI's don't show an interest unless you do. I always feel like such a sl** in Mass Effect and Dragon Age, having to throw myself at the guys to get their attention. I'd like the idea that the LI's actually are interested, and not just taking what's handed to them. I would enjoy the game more if more of the LI's tried to start the ball rolling. That being said, no means no...ANDERS...no need to get all huffy and rivaly just because I don't go in for abominations.

[Galad22]

They should just make enhanced edition to fix their game for free, with some of your suggestions.

CD projekt used million dollars in making enhanced edition to their game, and they got lots of goodwill for that. Anyone think Bioware would be willing to do the same? Personally I am somewhat cynical of that.

Qunari female companion sounds great btw!

Agreed. The Qun demands it!

My guess would be "FUN". Isn't it hillarious every time it happens? This is what it's all about! 

[Maverick827]

Great suggestions.

Codex entries/notes for "psychic quests" would also help remedy the issue (though part of me thought they already existed, but then I suppose there wouldn't have been an issue in the first place).

[Lux]

Thanks for the input! I figured I should nag less and be more constructive.

Is an improved edition that far-fetched? They recently unleashed a pretty cool promotion with DA2 + ME2, for whatever the reason. I would really love to tweak companion armor; my suggestion being the ability to use any other compatible gear in the game while preserving the original design. If I'm not mistaken, DC Universe Online did something analogous with armor customization.

I've no problem with your opinion. What really bothered me was this...

I highly doubt you will ever see a female Qunari companion, it doesnt fit the lore...females arent seen as warriors, so they are restricted to priests or administrators.

However, i hope theres an expansion that goes into the tevinter Imperium and the war with the Qunari and we can actually SEE some female Qunaris. How awesome would it be to meet the Ariqun (female) as the Champion who bested their Arishok in single combat?

It could be rebel femari qunari tal-vashok, I doubt they are as picky as qun are.

Yeah, i suppose thats true. But even then..in Act 3, Maraas would not let me hire him because i had a "title," so who knows.

Maraas wasn't exactly Tal-Vashok anymore though.

[wright1978]

Some of the ideas are good, points 1 & 2 especially.

Disagree on runes. Think it's more sensible that they can't just be stripped off and that you have to think a bit more if you want to enchant wepons/armour

Disagree on romances too. Think it is good that companions initiate.

[Blood-Lord Thanatos]

I think that its unrealistic to expect an enhanced edition. people would probably turn around and complain that bioware is trying to deceive them.

[Rockpopple]

Yeah, I liked that the companions initiated romances. I never ran into the problem with Anders that so many are complaining about. My guess is that they led him on.

[Lord Gremlin]

It's all good, but it's a recipe for DA3.

[Abispa]

Considering that the Qunari have a rigid society that brain washes children from birth, I'm not sure how "awesome" a female Qunari would be considering Sten's many comments about the role of women in the first game. The fact that the males appear to be giants may indicate that the females would be, too, but that may NOT be the case. Plus, since the Qunari push specialized roles on their citizens, it is likely that all the Qunari we've seen are just the ones worthy of being the vanguard of their army and may NOT accurately reflect even the males as a whole. Unless you want to help a female Qunari set up a shop or something.

And runes are SO EASY to get in this game that the reuse option seems to be an acceptable limitation. Except where Sandals special runes are concerned, but I always save them for the final weapon I get.

You're so very cynical, have some faith in humanity.

[Abispa]

And the gooey red fireworks have been a Bioware staple since Baldur's Gate. I was sad when I didn't see them in Jade Empire.

Since half of the qunari in DA2 are rebels they aren't very good with their brainwashing. There are concept art of female qunaris in net somewhere, they would make as good soldier as human at least.
