  1. I have heard nothing about him and people have been asking.
  2. I made fettuccine alfredo last night. I decided to toss some ham into the alfredo, but it was too thinly sliced. Once on the plate, the ham started finding a way to settle to the bottom. It wasn't bad, it just kind of ruined what I was going for.
  3. Where outside of that one Wynne scene that's all about her spirit keeping her alive?
  4. Level 11 I hear. You can only get one specialization this time around though and they're taught by a quest.
  5. How the heck did Mt Dew get this popular? It's like the only thing holding up that soft drink division and I keep seeing fast food restraunts drop the entire coca-cola lineup just to get a better deal on Dew.
  6. Mind will be arriving sometime between the 20th and 25th. Which works for me because I'm not even getting a PS4 until Black Friday.
  7. I'd say sure you can, but just don't pretend you actually know what the controls and gameplay are like. You don't have to own a game, sure, but that's a whole other matter. You should at least play a game before making a definitive assertion. Making a judgement call on if it's worth risking is what we all do before we buy a game, but it's silly to make recommendations to others with only such limited experience.
  8. Most magical healing was only ever a game mechanic, with the overwhelming majority of in-setting healing being done with poultices and herbs. You didn't see mages treating wounded soldiers or anything. Spirit Healers were real healers, though, but a very rare fluke that had no formal codification. Wynne didn't seem to have ever heard of it before.
  9. It's necessary for the virus collection missions and before you get super speed. You don't get that until a couple missions in.
  10. That's the first I've heard like that, but I actually really like the idea of standing judgement over a goat flinger.
  11. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014/11/17/wot-i-think-dragon-age-inquisition/ Rock, Paper, Shotgun seems to like it.
  12. Denuvo is it's name, funny thing is that the console versions of the game were out for download 2 days ago. Denuvo is not the DRM on the game, it's the anti-cheat. The DRM is Origin.
  13. Consensus is better than DA2, but you'll be forgiven for still being wary. There's not much known about the ending and I hear it's, at best, okay.
  14. All the problems come because the city rests on a virtual hellmouth. Bertrand isn't an immigrant. Merideth isn't an immigrant. Sister Petrice wasn't.
  15. Same here. Do we know if performance is better on the PS4 or Xbox One? I suppose the difference is negligible at this point. It seems there might be a slight improvement on the PS4 version but I'm not sure the difference is very noticeable. The scuttlebutt is that PS4 has better resolution, but Xbone has more consistent framerate. I don't want anyone taking my word though.
  16. I think I get it here. You're mainly familiar with SWTOR. The formula's been part of Bioware's thing for some time. Jedi, Spectre, Grey Warden, now Inquisition.
  17. Based on what? based on the video above, it's very similar That video looks like every Bioware dialogue since they started using the wheel. In terms of animation, it looks like everything since KOTOR.
  18. Animation is definitely kind of disappointing. It's all the Bioware stock again. They try so hard to be cinematic, but so much animation is directly from the can.
  19. New spoiler going around, worth the price of admission alone for the game. I'm sold.
  20. Maybe they couldn't. It's people who write stories, not companies. AFAIK most if not all of BG2 story was written by Lukas Kristjanson. For DA:O he wrote "Leliana's Song" DLC (a nice but very short module) and he also co-authored "A Paragon of Her Kind" quest. Which is probably why Orzammar subplot is considered the strongest part of the game story-wise. P.S. Notably, almost nobody has heard of Kristjanson but everyone knows Hepler and Gaider. It seems that the ability to troll the community doesn't necessarily coincide with writing talent. Interesting about Lukas. He's senior writer now on DAI. We'll see if he's still got it soon enough He wrote Sera and most videos floating around with the character are delightful.
  21. One thing I'm surprised isn't mentioned more is that some locales are only bits and pieces. Like Val Royeaux is only the marketplace.
