I'm a big mass effect fan, but this is better. (I'm making that comparison based on I liked DA:O better than ME2, and this game is looking even better than that one).

I like my RPG not for dummies.
I don't think either of us, didn't enjoy it, but really the "combat" of Mass Effect is much deeper than this.. or at least what's presented in the demo.

Really? All you do in Mass Effect is take cover and shoot stuff while you spam your abilities. Combat is not the reason to play that game - as far as third person shooters go it's pretty far down on the list in terms of the combat.

Dragon Age is the same, except you don't take cover, and on harder difficulties a lot of emphasis is placed on setting up what moves each of your party members is using and coordinating an attack.

And to me.. again based solely on the demo, this boils down to wacking the X button and occasionally using one of your special moves. Waiting for it to cool down, rinse and repeat.

Again, RPG battles don't loan themselves well to demos.
