In this portion of Dragon Age forum news, David Gaider makes the point that gameplay realism is also the players' responsibility. He answers the demands of players wanting to be able to kill everything in sight and level the ground, players who want to be able to hold a single-handed weapon in two hands to a different effect from either single or two-handed style, make extreme party combinations and still want to be able to finish every quest and win every fight, and so on and so forth. The fact that players will always find a way to tweak the rules and cheat the system at least a bit is also mentioned.
