This thread has a simple premise:

If you were given the choice in a hypothetical future Dragon Age game between origins (defined as separate and distinct playable prologues that provide a background and context for your protagonist's journey) and racial choice (defined as being able to select from a variety of fantasy races in the character creator) which would you prefer, and why?

For the purposes of this discussion, assume that the game that has origins does not have racial choice (all origins would be human) and the game that has racial choice does not have origins (all start in the same place in the same fashion, such as in Baldur's Gate or NWN).

If you can't endorse the existence of one without the other, than this is not the thread for you.  The discussion thread on the human protagonist in DA3 would probably be more appropriate. 

EDIT: A couple clarifications based on trends so far:

For this poll, do not assume that human-only origins are anything like the backgrounds in Mass Effect.  They would be like DA:O's origins, except human-only.

More importantly, to those who voted Depends on Content - or anyone who wants to change their vote at any time - I am editing the original post to assume that both options share an equal amount of content in the "main" game, so please re-vote.

The purpose of this thread is to isolate a specific feature - origins vs. races - by making everything else about the hypothetical game equal to determine which one matters most to players.
