Does anyone else feel Bioware wanted you to be a human noble?

 This origin ties in way more to the main plot than any of the other origins.  Don't get me wrong, everything else had implications once you revisited their respective locations later in the game but none of them dealt with "main" bad guys like Arl Howe and Loghain.  Also it seems you get more reaction as you play through the game a human noble more so than anything else; it's more heavily integrated

Well, considering how most of the game centers in a primarily human region, I'm not surprised. It does take a lot longer to get to, though, which kinda pissed me off, since I wanted my swords and Howe's throat to become the best of friends the very moment I was out of Ostagar.

@ ChaoticBroth: lmao, me too.



Ferelden is, primarily, a human land, so not surprising at all. What I like, I suppose, is that the other origins let you see things from a non-humanocentric viewpoint. All is not what it seems if you played human noble on your first run through.

Uh, I don't know. Yes and no? As much as it tied into the main plot, it didn't really feel like more attention was paid to it over the other Origins.

(And they all tie into the MAIN plot, since you've got to go to each area as part of the main plot... it's just that the Landsmeet happens last. I don't think that was originally the case, either: I think at one point you'd have been able to do the treaties after the landsmeet, if you so chose)

the only thing I think Bioware made more glaringly obvious, was that it was always best to start as a rogue. Tower of Ishaal proved that to me. Other than that, no, I think the origin stories were quite well woven into the rest of the plot, not to make it feel that Human Noble was the best choice, unless, unless you wanted to be king or queen.

Funny, I thought that Bioware wanted the player to be a bald casteless rogue. Every cut scene, every plot hook seems to play off that.

Wanted you to be a human noble? No, I think Bioware wants you to give all the origins a run through. They all tie into the main plot and have their own side thing during the game that relates back to it, Jowan, Howe, Bhelen, ect. along with a few special situations and dialogue sequences. Howe is more memorable because he gets played quite a bit more then any of the other origin hangovers so that may help add to the perception a bit. But no, I don't think they necessarily wanted you to play a human noble. If they go for a canonized ending however, I'm certain it would be that of a human noble.

Bioware didn't want you to be, practically everyone wanted to be since it was the only origin that sadly had any relation to Tim Curray's sexy voice.

It certainly had the most attention. Howe just kinds of pops up out of nowhere, out of the side of the screen, with a silly British accent going "Hellooo! I'm a bad guy!" if you play as any of the other Origins. Plus, Human Nobles get the cool endings at the Landsmeet. Dwarf Nobles can't even return home and lop Bhelen's head off the moment they arrive. HE'S STANDING RIGHT THERE! THROW A ****ING AXE AT HIS HEAD!
