I tried playing as an Elf mage in Dragon Ages: Origins in the afternoon. I must have learned something in my previous incarnation. Better group control and, hopefully, smarter spell use. It paid off in the Ogre boss battle in the tower scenario. I died twice as an elf mage as opposed to about ten times in the first adventure as a Dalish Elf.
As a point of information, when I shift from game to game, and platform to platform, It takes some time to get used to the new button schemes. Most of the time the shoot, interact, jump, run, and other basic action button are relatively similar. The significant change is the specialty selection. The designers have tried, successfully most of the time, to be intuitive. Every player will have to realize that there might be a certain amount of frustration attached to the shift. That wrong button press and associated death (what a royal pain), but it will pass quickly, and it won’t be long before you’re back in the groove.
