WorstUsernameEver Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I don't know if I'd call Morrigan's plot expansion material. She's a mandatory companion, and she's practically the most important character at the end of the game, with the choice of whether or not you want to perform her dark ritual.

entrerix Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 femhawke is wicked awesome looking imo. http://kotaku.com/5632187/dragon-age-iis-h...emale-real-nice much better looking than the vanilla femshep option in mass effect. I'm sure i'll spend 10 minutes on the facegen thing anyway to customize her a bit, but still, i could look at that for a 40+ hour game and enjoy every minute of it Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.

Tale Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I caved and loaded up my very first character for Witch Hunt. Great fun. The companions are simply fun.

Tale Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) Witch Hunt wasn't too long. It doesn't do much that's new. The main thing I have to say is that it has good companions, I like their banter and they're amusing. It seems to think I denied the ritual, even though I didn't. Pretty sure I know why. Also, apparently 35 is the level cap. I started Witch Hunt a sliver from that. Edited September 8, 2010 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

TheHarlequin Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Apparently the three masked Qunari are mages. What do you think of the re-conned qunari? I actually like the new version better then the old.

Tale Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I think the new ones make more sense. Darkspawn from Qunari stock were Ogres. These guys look like Ogres.

entrerix Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 i think the qunari look way better now. So far its the only thing improved looking in the new game, i think the darkspawn, which already looked lame, look much worse now. Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Tale Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I was just reminded of something, Is everybody expecting dialogue wheel text to not match up with spoken dialogue? It's amazing how much I overlook that in Mass Effect. But am not wanting Hawke to be another Shepard. I'm sure I'll completely overlook it in DA2, though.

entrerix Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 it bothers me in mass effect, but I also kind of like it, because sometimes i get pleasantly surprised by the actual words that are spoken. other times i get pissed because they don't quite match what i expected based on the little blurb Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Tale Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 (edited) The thing about it that bothers me is conceptually it's more akin to pick a path adventure books than RPGs. "If Shepard threatens the barkeeper, turn to page 25" vs "[intimidate] Just give me the damn drink!" Functionally, they're identical. But the former perpetuates that Shepard isn't you or your player avatar, but instead a distinct character you're simply guiding. In practice, I'm unlikely to care in the short run. But I wouldn't want to see it be an ongoing trend. Edited September 8, 2010 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

entrerix Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I like that analogy, and it seems pretty apt, i agree I wouldnt want it in every game, but in mass effect I think it works fairly well because shepard really does feel like a character that I am guiding, and that seems to be the intent of the designers to cultivate that feeling. (ie the feeling of being a part of an interactive movie) Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Nepenthe Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 I hope that Hawke gets a good voice actor. That is my only problem with male Shepard. I still think Mark Meer is a good voice actor, he just aims for something that more than a few people don't like. That still doesn't make him bad! You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep.
