 I have to say of all the lore and things that David and Bioware have made for this game the Dwarves are by far my fav.  The opening for both the Dwarf Nobel and Commoner were some of the best parts of DAO for me.

Now in DA3 it would fit great to be a Dwarf.  The whole story is about the mages and all that jazz.  Well who better to throw into that mix then a Dwarf.  They are strong to magic so they could be the Templars champion cutting down the uppity mages.  Or as someone who never had much to fear from mages they could fight for those they feel are oppresed for nothing.  I know you can't be a mage but so what that us still loads better than being generic human number 2000 in an RPG.

If I get stopped by a black police officer, my first reaction isn't going to be "omg your a black guy!" It's going to be "what does this police officer want?"

But you did notice it was a black police officer.

EDIT: To be serious, I do feel that the lack of reactivity due to player origin and player race is a valid complaint for DAO, personally.

You'd notice it if he had red paint all over his face, too. Or if he was wearing lipstick and eyeshadow. Or talked like Foghorn Leghorn. That in no way indicates that you're somehow racist against red paint, lipstick, eyeshadow, or talking roosters.

Just to be clear, I don't consider racial awareness to be racism. For good or ill, though, it's what many/most humans do. Myself included.  In any case, it seems I shouldn't have made the comment regardless and certainly don't mean stir the pot regarding this issue.

This relates back to the idea that reactivity to the player race not being fleshed out well enough is as good of a concern as any.

I know why it doesn't happen that way, but it's still an open forum for people to talk about issues they find with the games, regardless of whether or not they recognize that it's probably not going to be addressed before other issues.

**EDIT** I also kind of got the impression from my conversation with Jory that only the completely dim-witted ever asked a near stranger about his/her race or (female) gender. It might have been just my interpretation, but I gathered that talking about such things (unless your intention was to be offensive) was kind of taboo.

Fair point.
