I don't mind... as long they are good sounding Voice Actors. I wouldn't mind hear Jennifer Hale's voice again in some other game or animation.
Now Ander's VA and FemHawke. Those are the actors I do NOT want to hear again.

Yes, yes, we know you don't like Dragon Age 2 or it's voice cast.
I've only ever played as a female Hawke so far, so I can't really imagine the character voiced by anyone else (Much like those male Shepard players who can't imagine anyone but Mark Meer as the character. See? We're not so different.)
I honestly wouldn't mind having Jennifer Hale be in Dragon Age 3, though. People i've said as much to seem to be worried she'd basically be female Shepard in Thedas, but unlike Mark Meer, Jennifer Hale has this little thing called range.

Well, not all the Voice Cast.
I like Male Hawke actually. His deadpan snarking tone is spot on and if you customise your Hawke to fit his VO, I'd say it's not bad. So if I wouldn't mind if I see maleHawke's VA again.

Not every voice actor is bad. To be fair i didn't reallly hate any voice actors in any game or movie ever...well except maybe that Isolde woman from Origins >.>

Oh yeah her. Awful, nothing more to be said here.
Well, there's this one NPC in DA2 that seemed to act really well. Lilley I think that was her name. Her VA acted so well, to the point it's waste to give her a line then kill her off so quickly. She's so good that I want her in my party! I'm willing to punt Anders out just to have her in.

One day there'll be a discussion that doesn't get derailed into one about Dragon Age 2. One day!

The whole EA vs. Steam debacle. Quoth EA after they announced Battlefield 3 wouldn't be available on Steam (I'm not a fan of the series, but it's still a cheap move to force people onto their Origin service):
"BF3 will not be available on Steam as the service restricts our ability to directly support players"
Seriously? When have EA ever gave two shits about supporting us? From the looks of my bank balance after they make BioWare squeeze out substandard DLC, EA supports gamers like the Romans supported Jesus with that big wooden back brace of his.

The Steam vs EA debacle is about the great honey pot that is DLC. Nothing more, nothing less. Ea disapproves of the idea that end users could buy DLC from someone other than them. Steam wants in on that action.
They are both shooting themselves in the foot but EA will lose more I think because no one trusts Origin not to be a piece of shit. I had one experience with EA's e-store, it was profoundly negative. I have no reason to believe Origin will be any more competent.

That and other independent game developers wouldn't abandon Steam anytime soon, especially when Steam seemed to be a lifeblood for indie game distribution I think. With EA craptastic records with their dealings with other developers, I'd say Origin won't be kicking itself off the ground that quick as they hoped it would be.

Since in all likelihood I will need to use the Origin client to play ME 3, I feel like I am going to be railroaded into it. As a consumer I am less than pleased at that.I have enough game clients installed as it is.
This is where DRM is going though. I'll get over it, but I don't have to be happy about it.

I hear you; after Origin, I'll have three clients installed. Everyone's looking for that direct cash flow. I'd be very surprised if Activision doesn't do something similar soon.

Between Origin and the SecuROM if picking out the hard copy version... I'll take my chances with the Hard Copy version when ME3 comes out.

Securom is awful. Game clients (so far) are unobtrusive. Consumer reviews are the key to a good decision here. I just think I have enough registry keys cluttering my three hard drives up as it is.
