Dragon Age II Preview

GamePro is offering up some more GamesCom coverage in the form of a bullet point preview of Dragon Age II. A little something on the amount of gameplay hours and UI changes we should expect:
'¢ Dragon Age: Origins could take a long damn time to get through. While Dragon Age II will have an equivalent amount of things to do and experience for completists, the average experience is expected to be shorter, more like the playthrough time of Mass Effect 2.

'¢ This may seem like a small cosmetic UI change, but gamers who played Dragon Age: Origins will probably love this: ability trees are actually like trees now, with branching discipline paths, and upgrades that split off like little tabs from there. The basic concept is similar to Dragon Age: Origins and gamers can expect a ton of new magical abilities and fighting techniques and speciall attacks in addition to some old familiar ones. But visually, it's much easier to digest.
