    Don't forget about auras and other passive powers or abilities. Not all magic neceassarily has to be casting.
    indeed.

    Give us memorable villains!
    So, you're saying that an end villain named "Kobold Grunt" wouldn't make for a satisfying game experience? Jeepers, y'all are needy! :D

    I think that even if the main villain is a plumber named "Welton Laramie," if the story builds him up into a larger-than-life master of the diabolical and gives the player a great game experience finding him and defeating him, he could still be a "memorable" one.

    Compare the visually malevolent villains such as Darth Vader, the Borg and Sauron (both the LotR and the Captain Power versions) to the ones that were built up, like Hamlet's King Claudius, Kaiser Soze and Hannibal Lecter. Are any in the second list any more or less memorable than those in the first, even though there's nothing in their appearance that would scream "BAD GUY"?

    New race in Dragon Age is feline?
    I only hope it is not something as lame as an animal-person. Furries are too strange.
    Yeah, everyone knows that tree-people and cloud-people and mud-people are so much cooler and easier for people to identify with. ;) Yay for elemental beings!
