Dragon Age: Inquisition
I would guess that they are trying to build some hype and hope that more people that are currently uninterested will get on the fence, if you will. Personally, I'm with Shady on camera options, but I would also like to see an in depth presentation of the combat and character(stats, talents, skills) system. I will admit that the interviews with people making the game are more charming than a cinematic that doesn't tell much about how the game will play, if only because they remind me of the PE updates.

Dragon Age: Inquisition Developmen+PE Beta Thoughts
If I'm not mistaken, backers of a certain tier get beta access, and you can test it for them then. Call me naive, but I'm thinking backers will be more likely to be helpful.....if they aren't busy burning effigies of Sawyer for implementing teh wurst systme evah before they even know what the system is and exactly how it works.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
“I have those feelings sometimes where I don’t want to send my kid to his first day of school wearing a propeller hat, you know?” Gaider says. I demand that propeller hats be in the game and that you can romance them!

Dragon Age: Inquisition
I'd say in DAO a Rogue could best a Warrior in damage output. He would have to be a dual weapon Assassin because Ranged did not synergize well with rogue abilities, but with back stabbing he could excell in raw damage. If anything, Warriors were the weakest overall.

Character Rollaholic - Mea Culpa
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to IndiraLightfoot's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)True, the game cannot react to something that doesn't exist in game(like a backstory and personality the player creates for the PC) and in Skyrim's case often doesn't react to things that do exist in the game. However, the actions that character takes in game will be determined by their back ground and personality.* Frankly, I think that trying to make a cRPG that is capable of reacting to any background that a player could possibly come up with will either fail badly or end up restricting a player to a background that he/she may not like. IMO, it is better to have a (mostly)blank slate, let the player create a background and personality for the PC that they use to determine the PC's actions in game, and have the game react solely to actions(and race, class, faction, etc.). YMMV, but I'm perfectly fine with a game not recognizing that my character is a disgraced knight as long as it doesn't contradict that halfway through and doesn't force a motive on my PC. Can Gods remove parts of their souls? If they can, does that fragment become a separate entity? Would that entity actually be human(oid) and not some monster that would be attacked on sight? I'm pretty versed on the updates and can't recall an answer to any f the above questions, so I don't really know if your example fits the setting. I will likely get to play as an insane Paladin who attempts to kill almost anyone his order deems evil, a masochistic Monk who likes getting hit as a way to pleasure himself, and(if soul grafting is possible) a Cipher who believes herself to be a fragment of a god and harvests souls in an attempt to become better. I wouldn't be able to do that if they decided that (a) Paladins stop being Paladins when reputation falls below X (b) Monks are forced to be "Lawful" and being crazy is considered "Chaotic" © Ciphers have some "pure soul" bull**** that prevents them from being damaged. While PE won't have restrictions like these, they were rampant in IE games and did prevent certain types of characters. *Unless the player is playing a self-insert or metagaming for the best rewards. That didn't really help me at all. I didn't see a good reason why my physically fit wizard was restricted to daggers, quarterstaffs, and crossbows in BG2. I would assume that someone with the highest intelligence possible for a human would be able to figure out how to correctly wield a sword.

What you did today
Possibly offensive to overly uptight fellows. I ended up drinking much more than I should have and spent an hour driving around to various fast food places to satisfy the midnight cravings of several drunk friends and I pissed in a parking lot. All in all it was a disappointing but still fun night. Also, Indie music is generally ****ing terrible.

What you having for dinner tonight?
The greens are cooking quite nicely, and I'm marinating the chicken in vinegar and Hatch peppers. Should make a fantastic breakfast. I had Subway for lunch as well.

Prism Program ( Big Brother gone too far?)
I suppose Chelsea is a better name than a 'feminized' version of Bradley. I wonder if this means they will have to find a more femine actor to play him/her in the miniseries or movie?
