I don't understand the people complaining about this. I am definitely looking forward to this expansion, especially after reading the Dragon Age novels. I really recommend reading them before you play the expansion, as there are characters in the novels who make an appearance in the game.
The Reason i complain about 6 insted of 4 slots is that the game is basicly limiting your options to having
1 spellcaster
1 fighter
1 theif
1 plot person, depending on the scenario you usually need to take someone
So by not having 6 slots, it limits the games stratergy by making the 4 characters as strong as 6 characters. When there were 6 characters, every party member was not strong, you had to really focus with all members as their skills were spread out thin. With Dragon age now having 4 strong party members, limits dialog options and limits combinations. You also miss out on 2 more opinions due to the scenario.
I will be interested to see these new dragon age characters, however i still think Bioware was to a degree rather stupid for not sticking with the Forgotten Realms.
