After seeing the conept artwork, we got to see some playable code. The engine that BioWare is developing for Dragon Age (and yes there will be dragons in the game, but they were not seen in this presentation) is naturally state of the art, with huge draw distances and capable of showing hundreds of characters on the screen at the same time, all is fullly detailed 3D. The first part of the demo showed a siege taking place in a desert town with two huge siege towers litterally spilling enemies out. Your main character is a big, burly bare shirted dude who is willing to help defend the town, but tells the folks in charge he need to be paid more first.
