i love the wizard cause you can shapeshift and $hit...but i also like the rouge cause it can pick locks. i think that there should be a multiplayer option for it though.
I'm a little let down that their forcing you to be a human in this upcoming sequel. But seeing how Bioware did an awesome job on making Commander Shepard of the Mass Effect series, I can imagine this new main character named Hawke will be pretty cool.
And if I had to pick a favorite class it'd be Warrior, those special kills that come up randomly are just awesome to watch. Like if you get the last hit on an ogre, your guy pulls a UFC "IT'S ALL OVER!" and leaps at the things face!
I'd have to choose Mage with Arcane Warrior and Battlemage specials. Combat Magic w/ Fade Shroud Shimmering Shield Elemental Chaos Arse load of Willpower (If I feel like it) Replusion Field Awesome tankage right there.
