Ok Hi everyone it's been a while.
I was just wondering if anyone else felt the same way I did. I loved DA and have just started Awakening, but the game has been grating my brain for months which was why I stopped playing.(well that and ME2). The reason why I say this is playing DA felt like bioware took shell of BG, NWN, and Icewind Dale and tried to apply it to DA and it failed. I mean Orzammar was PAINFUL to play through as was the Circle Tower, and at times I just felt like they had set up an organized system that was trying to play like BG. Also I never felt like the Origins really mattered...I mean they have little impact and do not really affect the way people react to me. DA boasts of a different experience every time you play and yet the Origins aren't really that important in respect to game play, as a mage people should have been more afraid and as a noble I would think there would have been more political intrigue or something. The selling point was the Origins that had little to no impact... it was kinda sad for me. These are little issues of mine of coarse but then Mass Effect 2 came out and I found myself attempting to play DA only to think..."Bioware can do SOOO much better,". I felt immersed in ME2 but in DA I felt like I was just playing the part at many times, and I have it on xbox so no modding for me.
Ultimately I thought it was a good game but I felt some dumb mistakes had been made in how they set up the game because I know they can do better. Did anyone else feel this way or am I nit picking?

Looking For: A wonderfully wonderful Artist
Details: lordsdarkknight185 and myself are currently attempting our first mod a Sensate(priestess of Sharess) named Myrna. My co-hooligan has already constructed a sensate kit that we will hopefully have beta testable soon. We've been working on Myrna on and off for a while, but now we've finally buckled down and have decided to continue her. The problem is this we have both agreed on a picture that would fit for Myrna with a number of changes. I have attempted these changes in MSpaint and needless to say it did not work out well. This picture will be linked to the post so any interested parties can see if they would be interested in drawing a similiar(or better) drawing or photo shopping it. For the curious of mind I am scripting her(though I'd willingly accept help) and my lordsdarkknight185 is coding.(I will most likely be voicing her as well,)
Here are the general things about Myrna you need to know:
Characterizations
Mryna is Caucasian, in her early twenties, is wonderfully attractive, and worst off she knows it. She is a woman who has learned to appreciate pleasure. She comes off as naive only to those who don't know better. She is witty, wise, and has a past she is still trying to accept but is not angsty about. Also she is bisexual, people are people to her and she uses them and loves them in anyway she desires. She has gotten by in life because of her sexuality and charisma.
The most important thing about her is her passion for life and people, and yet her passion for vengeance. The point is pick part of her and try to express it. She's sensual and has a wonderfully fun personality
Original Appearence:
Hair: Long brunette hair
Eyes: Hazel or green
General colors: Red, which is the color of passion
