Fans of the old game are going to find a number of things improved, including much better visuals, a new but not-too-different art style, a streamlined UI, improved combat mechanics, archery that doesn't suck, and a dialogue wheel to replace the old dialogue lists.

That story is of the champion, Hawke, a human male or female who went from the life of a refugee to become the Champion of Kirkwall.
