When we first heard new informations about Dragon Age III : The inquisition, Fans were unhappy and dissapointed of the announcement that we would be able only to play a Human character with only possibility to change gender of our hero. BioWare wants in the future to ensure that we can play any races of the universe.
"Sorry, for those who love elves and dwarves, but long term I’d like to see all four races playable. Future plans!" - Mike Laidlaw
