So... do you continue with the Gray Warden character, or not?

Woot! Bioware officially announced DA2. No word on when it's going to be released yet but probably sometime next year.
Experience the epic sequel to the 2009 Game of the Year from the critically acclaimed makers of Dragon Age: Origins and Mass Effect 2. You are one of the few who escaped the destruction of your home. Now, forced to fight for survival in an ever-changing world, you must gather the deadliest of allies, amass fame and fortune, and seal your place in history. This is the story of how the world changed forever. The legend of your Rise to Power begins now.
Key Features:
* Embark upon an all-new adventure that takes place across an entire decade and shapes itself around every decision you make.
* Determine your rise to power from a destitute refugee to the revered champion of the land.
* Think like a general and fight like a Spartan with dynamic new combat mechanics that put you right in the heart of battle whether you are a mage, rogue, or warrior.
* Go deeper into the world of Dragon Age with an entirely new cinematic experience that grabs hold of you from the beginning and never lets go.
* Discover a whole realm rendered in stunning detail with updated graphics and a new visual style.
Taking place over an entire decade? That's certainly something new from Bioware. The only thing I want from DA 2 is that it have a better/longer overarching story arc so this seems a step in the right direction.
I don't know what they mean by new visual style though. I hope it's not too big a difference from the first game.
So, excited?

I hope it DOES look different from the first. I loved the game, but it WAS fairly ugly.

I really hope they dump the MMORPGish "class specific role" crap

I think they could - mainly because 'Fallout 2' did it so brilliantly.

From what I hear they're taking Dragon Age more into the direction of Mass Effect.
