Dragon Age II Interview

Dragon Age II development manager Robyn Theberge explains how we'll be able to "think like a general" and "fight like a SPARTAN" in a new interview about the RPG sequel over at Video Games Daily.
You've presumably been privy to focus tests for this game.

Yeah, it's been everywhere. It's not just focus tests. Our forums are incredibly busy at all times, our fans are incredibly vocal. And we listen, we hear, and we have made adaptations. Of course we can't adapt everything, there's a bunch of reasons why certain things can't be done.

One of the things you'll see in this game that's directly from the forums is one of the followers, who we've already introduced, Aveline she's a very powerful female warrior. And that was something the forums were asking for, they wanted a powerful female warrior. Because we haven't really seen that Origins had Morrigan who is a powerful mage and they needed an outlet.
