Th introduction and opening part of the gameplay give you a great sense of danger and of facing an almost impossible task, which gives Dragon Age 2 a lot of drama.

Your choices and actions do affect the game though, so it's not totally linear. Like a movie where you see the end first, and are then taken on a journey towards that, Dragon Age 2 moves away from traditional storytelling. The storytelling seems to be the biggest attraction - your character's fate is sealed from the start.

If you got tired of lots of brown spattered with red, there's little to excite you here. Graphically Dragon Age 2 looks improved, although not dramatically different to the original. The action is quite hectic, and you need to quickly grasp battle tactics, as despite appearances simple hacking and slashing won't work! Using the your abilities and those of your group, you have to survive wave after wave of Darkspawn, including a fight with an enormous Ogre. The demo gives you a good introduction the to story and the gameplay: You are on the run from the Darkspawn, after the destruction of your village.
