Yeah, Right

Nice seeing news about a Dragon Age II demo being released near the ending of February (the 22th as I've seen it), which should answer a lot of my wonders about the new changes that have been made to the game. It appears as though the game has gotten a bit more action oriented, which might not actually be a bad thing. I am a little sadden that the other races won't be up for selection in this one, as I wanted to bring about my murderous Elf back into the world.

Maybe Dragon Age III...

But all of this stuff isn't actually the purpose that I am writing about Dragon Age II tonight. What compelled me to write about this game is the fact that GameStop employees are getting first crack at the demo to help educate them on what the game is all about.

I laughed.

Then I cried a little.

I then wiped the tears, then kept on laughing.

Seriously, who these days actually goes into a game store or any store really, without actually knowing something about what you are pre-ordering or buying? In this age of technology and information, is there really any excuse left in not knowing? I mean isn't knowing half the battle?

And truth be told, the GameStop employees that my girlfriend had asked questions to, were absolutely NO HELP AT ALL. They didn't really know all that much, outside of maybe what's written on the back of the game box.

But it is a new year and maybe I should give the world the benefit of the doubt. Maybe this is the way that will help educate these folks about the products they are trying to sell. Maybe this will help them grasp a better understanding which will lead to them gaining more sales and thus, giving better customer service...

I'll just go hold my breath while I wait for that one...
