not sure when you meet him, but he's a new member.

I fail at PC hardware these days. I'm totally out of touch. Can someone help me out and tell me if my PC can run this game? Here are my specs:

Windows Vista Home Premium 32-Bit with SP2
Intel 2.5G Dual Core
4GB Ram
ATI Radeon 4150 (I think)
350GB HDD

I just picked it up today, can some tell me whether the Stone Guardian DLC is a new Origins story for your own PC or is an NPC party member? If the later, when/how do they show up?

it showed up for me right away. I did the mission as soon as I could.

and yea he can become a party member

if thats what you were asking.

Unsure on the GPU. The 2nd number is pretty low. Are you sure it isn't a 4850 or 4750? Everything else seems fine.


EDIT: Just ordered the PC CE. Should I, by any luck, get a PS3 CE, I may happily return the PC version (or keep both ).


EDIT2: Did anyone buy the collectors edition guide? Any interesting info inside?

Whatever the case, it was actually quite easy for me. I didn't actually plan on getting it yesterday, but the guys at the store kept waving it in front of me and saying "Are you sure? Dude, it's an RPG, you love RPGs," and I kept using the Wife Won't Let Me plea. However when the Wife saw me constantly pining away for the game she caved in and I went back down to pick up the copy which they had apparently been holding for me on the chance that:

A) I decided to go behind her back.

B) She relented because they knew she was an RPG nut as well.

A) I've been bitching and moaning about my lack of Dragon Age

B) Your wife is awesome.

Marriage is overrated?

Depends.

Not if the one you're marrying is a 90 year old billionaire with extended cancer.

If I had a wife who was an RPG nut, I'm not so sure if it's overrated then.

I dunno.

Most RPGs are single player. That makes for a lot of quarreling.

You have to understand, she's a cat person.

I love your wife.

You know those Bud Light commercials that have been going around?

Too strong.

I don't have limiters.

Fair enough

Near the end of main quest i'd save before wrapping up. That way you can get both achievements in one play on the side you take... I just did it for the Tower of Magi, I could really do without "Fade" walking for a long long time.

It's a nice change of pace at first but man it ended up taking forever.

So what is everyone playing as on the first playthrough? I can't decide between Warrior>Templar, Rogue>Ranger, or Mage>Arcane Warrior. If I do Arcane Warrior can I still retain my healing abilities I get through being a mage and act as a main healer for the rest of the party?
