Morgoth Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 It is Felicia Day. That's what the customer wants. Next comes Lady Gaga as an oppressed elve pop star that can't go live due to anti-elve sentiments. Unless Commander Hawke punches the major (human imperialist and templar) into the nuts and amends the law. That's what the customer wants. Rain makes everything better.

MrBrown Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Considering all the online registration stuff, Bio probably has a good idea of the type of crowd that would buy DLCs to DA games. I would have no trouble believing that yes, this is what the customer wants... At least the potential DA DLC customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bendu Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) You can flirt with her, but that's all. And she will not be a companion outside the DLC.

I doubt they are going to make a Kasumi kind of investment again, due to the enormous amount of whine it created. Since, apparently, 99 % failed to realise that they bought a loyalty mission (IMO one of the better ones), a really sweet gun AND a fully-integrated NPC.

MrBrown Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 ME2 squad members weren't really very interactive outside of their specific missions. DA2 took a different route; the companions take part in conversations the whole game and have an effect on the outcomes. Sooo... they probably don't want to make a new NPC that isn't as interactive as the rest, and they don't want to put the resources in to make a full new NPC in this DLC. That's my read of the situation, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aries101 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) What did they do to the aliens...errr...elves? She actually looks like an Elf!? Did they just figure out people thought the new looks for elves made people think they were aliens from some sci-fi movie, or is this elf chick (assassin?) something different? She, Tallis, is a city born elf - not a Dalish elf. I agree, though, that the Dalish elves do look a lot like the blue people, the Na'Vi from the Avatar movie. Bioware's Mike Laidlaw said in the presentation that Tallis was a 'mysterious elf' - maybe she something else, a half-elf, maybe? Edit: I have no idea about who Felicia Day, other than she's appearing in ME2? and in this DA2 DLC as well as she'll be in DA2 web-comic. I couldn't care less about who she is - and quite frankly - I don't like her voice acting for Tallis in this DLC, but that may just be me. There's a discrepancy between Tallis's bad ass attitude as a rogue - and her soft spoken voice, I find.

Still this DLC comes a little too late in the game so it better be Lair of the Shadowbroker good otherwise its gonna crash hard. Fingers crossed for them not doing a DA3 tie in DLC.

Yes, they're going to do it. Arrival, while flawed, at least looks like it will make sense as a bridge between ME2 and ME3. It seems to set up the events of the next game quite clearly. Witchhunt was terrible in both regards to actual content, and how it did not bridge the gap between Origins and DA2. If DA2 has a "gap bridging" DLC before DA3, I hope it's more like Arrival than Witchhunt.

And apart from the Illuvian in WH, the tie-in has been pretty minimal so far. :/ Also :D You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

Ice9 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Well, tie-in stuff can only be so prominent when the sequel is distancing itself from the original. You might see a few common themes, but Dragon Age has different stories. Mass Effect is one big one. Arrival appears to work as a bridge because the crossing the gap between the franchises is like trying to cross a river. Trying to connect Dragon Age to Dragon Age 2 is more along the lines of building a bridge between Boston and London. Everything was beautiful. Nothing hurt.

HoonDing Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Witchhunt was terrible in both regards to actual content, and how it did not bridge the gap between Origins and DA2. That may well be, but at least it allows you to stab Morrigan in the gut, while in Origins your character is forced to stand around like a retard in a cutscene while the bitch slowly walks out of the room.
