I've played through as a Warrior and as a Rogue (being a Mage just bores me to death in this game), and I found both very capable and fun. So, Escapist, let me just ask you Do you find the rogue to be a hard class to play? If so, why? If not, which class do you find hardest and why? Even then, the rogue has at least three moves that can stun the enemy, so that you don't take as much damage and you can get Coup De Grace(or however that is spelled. The only thing that's hard is when all your teammates die, or when you have to fight an enemy one-on-one, since you can't get behind an enemy in order to get your backstab criticals. Now, I'm not playing on Hard or Nightmare or anything, and I'm sure that would add a whole degree of challenge to playing the game, but I just don't find playing as a rogue to be particularly challenging. I made a second character, a Dalish Elf rogue which I've played around 27 hours of.

Now, my first character was a mage, and I got bored of it after just a few hours of gameplay. Whenever I talk with people about Dragon Age, they seem to go out of their way to mention that they think playing a rogue is really tough.
