Unless you plan on travelling a lot, a desktop will always be the better option. You don't upgrade laptops, you buy new ones.
Anyway, back to DA:I. It's looking like it has potential, honestly, BW are obviously putting actual effort into this, and sending out early review copies is indicative of them being confident in their product (admittedly, it's when the NDA is lifted that matters more.) They have, however, lost my trust with DA2 and ME3, and my respect with the way they treated criticism and handled DLC, so I'll be waiting for reviews from trusted sources before I even consider buying DA:I. Even if I do decide to get it, I'll be waiting for a sale.
