Not sure where you would get concerned about BioWare producing either of these:
-Dont turn this into a childish 'tomb raider' type of game.
-Dont turn this into a hack n slash 'diablo' game
I would hope that if you have experience playing our other games you know that story and characters are the most important thing we consider when making a game. Dave Gaider is a hard workin' man when it comes to creating a world that has extensive history, color and living breathing cultures. To see a game start at the very top is a really exceptional experience to be a part of. The amount of written story is so huge it's a wonder the writers do not get demoralized at the vast amount that must be cut or never seen by the public. I hope we are able to continue with the Dragon Age world because it would be a waste of excellent fantasy material.
