JLSigman Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 No one is sure if that is supposed to be Alistair or a default Warden Commander from Origins. The big sup[rise is that Hawke from DA2 is in. there had been talks of Hawke and the Hero of Ferelden appearing in some manner, but nothing concrete until now. It actually a bigger appearance than expected going off of the trailer. Mike Laidlaw has said on Twitter it's not your Warden from DA:O, just a Grey Warden. Almost looks like Alistair, tho...

J.T. Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 It is starting to look like a hack and dash, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLSigman Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 It is starting to look like a hack and dash, to be honest. So, more like Diablo than DA you mean? No shade, just trying to understand. I do think the fact that they've focused on the pretty and not on the story is starting to work against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLSigman Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Bring on the trolls, because DA:I is gonna have multiplayer capabilities. How can this POSSIBLY go wrong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Rydell Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 So originally it sounded like if you were switching over from a 360/PS3 to the Xbone/PS4 you would not be able to transfer your save files and instead have to use the Keep to re-create your Warden/Hawke on the next gen systems, but with this video it seems that the Keep reads your 360/PS3 save file and then imports it onto the PS4/Xbone.

assfax Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 The first Dragon Age is free on Origin. Just in case anybody had an excuse not to revisit before the new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I must once more ask: Wasn't this once an RPG? Is it an RPG? Yes. Is it a turn-based or strategy based RPG? No. It is Elder Scrolls: Skyrim but with more companions. This game may get my money by virtue of the announcement that the Hero can be a Horned Qunari. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 What they have shown of the character creator is pretty nice. Your Qunari can even have broken horns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 What they have shown of the character creator is pretty nice. Your Qunari can even have broken horns. That reminds me - I wanted to post this video because I thought it did a really good job summing up that long ass presentation about the character creation (and some of the extra stuff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 There will be much rejoicing now that Elf ears don't look like they are stapled to the side of your head. I cannot get this game. I could literally spend hours designing a Qunari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I still need to play through Origins, and I have faith that I can get this for cheap in a few months due to the EA/Bioware connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I think I'm becoming bitter with age, but I just don't trust this game yet. Will decide to get excited after some reviews from people I trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I definitely don't trust that it'll be a good game, but I'm gonna be stupid enough to pre-order it anyway. Loved origins, and didn't completely hate DA2, as broken and crappy as it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 For some reason I had been under the assumption that it was only available for next-gen systems so when Jenn told me what a dope I was earlier this week I realized that the potential for me getting the game rose. Of course now I have to ask - I know on the next-gen systems they are just offering that check box system to allow you to carry over your choices. But for the 360 and PS3 - are they doing that or is it reading old saves? That - funnily enough - might be the deal breaker for me since I don't want it reading my old saves since I never finished DA2 and I hated some of the choices I accidentally made.

Eivion Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 You're talking about Dragon Age Keep. Inquisition won't read old saves on any system. You actually have to use the Keep for a customized world state. I do believe the Keep itself does read your old saves and allow you to go back and change things from there. I definitely don't trust that it'll be a good game, but I'm gonna be stupid enough to pre-order it anyway. Loved origins, and didn't completely hate DA2, as broken and crappy as it was. Have you checked out the various gameplay vids yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I've seen a little bit of the gameplay here and there. Looks a little too action RPG for my tastes, but not to the point where I won't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Its a mix of DAO and DA2. There is a Tactical camera/style of combat you can play. Its honestly looking like the smarter choice as they have made things a bit harder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the beta for the Keep, so I can't say much, but the only thing it really reads from your old saves is the race/gender of your various characters. Everything else can be set up as you like. You don't even have to have a save in order to make world states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
