Narrator definitely Flemeth in my opinion yar.

I can't really get excited by the trailer though.

Random "bad guy with stupidly huge claymore and spiky hair" hero, check
Half assed hard rock as music, check
Demon-looking enemy with horns, check (actually people are saying it's the new look of Qunaries...)
"When I get angry, my eyes get red!", check
etc.

It's an ok trailer for a teenager audience, with the rock and all, but really does not make me excited about the game itself, or remind me of the DAO universe

Half reminded me about Witcher intro though, not as cool and well done though.

Hum, true, I thought it was supposed to happen "later" like maybe 20 years or something, which would have still been ok since the dude does not look very old.
Or I wouldnt have put past the child mother or grandmother to have Haxxored him to grow faster really...

Never mind then, would have been cool if it was though, would have also explained why they removed the ability to play something else than a Human.

Edit: didnt look like he was holding it like it was a spear or a polearm though, my first impression was of a huge unrealistic claymore (that is also super thin obviously), will watch again though.

Ok, at least I wasnt the only one who got a bit confused with the weapon and the way he uses it.
It does looks like a polearm after looking more, but he does not use it like one.

I compare it a bit to the japanese naginata, but even this has piercing attack

Well, no point going into an argument, let's just call it a "pointy-slashy stick" and be done with it

Trailer was ok for an action trailer really, but the style was a bit too much Final Fantasy-like for the DAO style in my opinion and didnt really made me say "oh yeah, this is DAO universe!", but trailers for DAO1 werent exactly that great to get an impression of the game either.

While I like that they conclude this story really, but doing it in a 7usd DLC does not make me confident it will have big content and story if I judge from the other similar DLCs...

Yar, I want, but if it's a simple "bash bash bash darkspawn" for 45 minutes, then few sentences from Morrigan, then a final fight against her, then "the End", I might have prefered they didnt bothered and left it open ended...

See how it goes anyway, I will wait for reviews.

I used mods to be able to romance all the characters with the same female character...

NOW I fully expect to see the whole as a huge harem for my character in DA2.....

I think I will do the same, I have been pretty unexcited by the current trailers of the game too.

Will wait for some collector or GOTY edition on sales in a while, not in a hurry
