Dragon age origins character selection?

Iv already posted a question about this game but thought id post this as an after thought.. Im currently playing human warrior and have only got a little into the game (initiation). Is there alot of difference if you start as say a dwarf or elf ?? Also which class do you prefer, warrior, mage, thief or .. ?? the other one ??Dragon age origins character selection?
Each race has bonuses to certain stats - therefore if you want to start with max stats suited for a warrior the races would be (in order) - dwarf, human, elf



Of course you can play a warrior with any race and just compensate with your attribute point allocation as you level up.



I have found that being a mage with the Arcane Warrior specialization is great. The first ability in the Arcane Warrior chain enables you to use your magic stat to determine which weapons and armor you can use - therefore you pretty much get to play both as a mage and a melee combatant.Dragon age origins character selection?
There are a few differences depending on what origin you start with. You won't really see it with the human noble until closer to the end of the game. People will also react differently to you based on your background.



I like to play as a mage, they are super powerful in this game.
