Dragon Age - Difficulty

I have two big difficulties that stop me from enjoying Dragon Age. The first and the most critical is the annoying freezing of my PC randomly. I'm using a 4770 and according to my searches in the internets, there seems to be a problem with the ATI driver - upgrading to the latest one seems to have solved this problem as I have not yet had a crash in the game.

The second is a gameplay thing. Like Baldur's Gate and similar open world games - once the world opens up you can go anywhere naturally. Well the stuff I've been blogging about - about the dwarven quests turns out to be one of the most difficult one in the game. I've beaten the elven quest quite easily and my current escapades in the circle of magi quest isn't providing much difficulty now. Well I guess all games can't be perfect. I recommend people to stay away from the dwarves until you do all other places first.

Besides this two flaws...Dragon Age is still my game of the year.
