I personally have dumped well over 40 hours into the game, and there still is no end in sight. Dragon Age is a game which neither wants to end, nor is it balanced well. before i installed any of the DLC, the enemies were able to remove my entire party's kneecaps, while bosses simply oneshotted Allistair through the heaviest armor i had obtained upto that point. upon installing the DLC, the game becomes a triviality, with problems only occuring when the dragons, ogres, and bosses use their "fuck you up the ass with a chainsaw" moves. the gap between normal and easy difficulty is a trench a thousand miles across.
