I don't mind playing as a human commoner.  I think what's gonna kill this for me is that the PC is going to be fully-voiced.  *cries*

I responded to you in the VO thread, axe, asking why we weren't married yet.  ;)  Just think, this could be you:

That would be hot if it didn't put me in Alistair's place.  Talk about a mood killer!  Couldn't ya at least use a Banhammer shot or something? :lol:


But it would be you and not Alistair.  Doesn't that make it okay?

I give you my off-topic, Leli pics :D Well, kind of Leli-esque, since she's morphed.  I wish the game had lasted a little longer, but I did enjoy it. Marjolaine has always died in my previous games, but I'm going to be even happier beheading her now :)

I've played a fem elf, I've seen Alistair's moves... I was not impressed by his performance. 

Also I don't wear briefs, or barbarian helmets :?

Ahh; i didn't read that but hmm, i wouldn't expect any really drastic changes in this area, no matter how much hype they're making about it. I mean, the current system isn't action rpg and it didn't prevent the game from becoming their best selling title ever, outdoing ME, KotOR and others (they stated that yesterday)  While their only so far attempt to make action rpg (Jade Empire) did pretty poorly. So with this in mind it doesn't even make financial sense to mess with the successful formula too much.

I suspect if anything, the Darkspawn Chronicles thing was their test bed for whatever changes they have planned for combat, much like Leliana's DLC was test of the fully voiced protagonist/conversation system.


That pretty much sums up how I feel in general.  I just don't understand why they would detour from a sucessful formula and established player base just to try something new. 

I didn't like the changes they made from Origins to Awakening.  I didn't like the changes from Origins to Leliana's Song.  Tbh, I didn't even notice anything different about the combat in Darkspawn Chronicles.  I really don't care about combat though personally.  I care about dialog and replay value.  The reason Origins has held my interest this long is that it has an amazing replay value.  I played Awakening, Darkspawn Chronicles and Leliana's Song once.  That's my imo 2¢ for what it's worth.

If they give us some better CC options and stay away from making NPCs that look like Adaia (honestly wtf?) I won't mind losing the TS so much personally.  Oh and more armor options... they really cheaped out on the light armor.

Yeah...

I'm just going to believe my girl got her looks from her grandmother... and hope they never show any grandparents in future games.

Flemeth and Morrigan, yes.  Alistair and Duncan... eh... what is there to tell?  He was only with him for 6 months.  Killing a couple of straggler Darkspawn here or there on the way to Ostagar?


Six months is a fairly long time.  Leliana's Song basically takes place over the course of a few days.  We don't know everything that happened from Alistair almost taking his vows to then being recruited into the Wardens.  Additionally Duncan is a very interesting character in himself.  There's a fair amount of possibility for an interesting dlc.




Good point! I hadn't considered his joining and early days in the wardens as a DLC possibility, but that could be good!

Alistair could go along on some of Duncan's recruitment attempts. Assuming he didn't make everyone wait until Ostagar to do the Joining they could even succeed and get new Wardens who will die at Ostagar. That might be a little depressing, though...

I think a lot of people do since it's pretty much forced on you when you enter a GameStop.

I have an electronic subscription, although I think it goes to my husband's e-mail, so I haven't seen it.  I will damn well make sure that i check his e-mail on July 19th though.

And so you just proved it. :D You don't have a clue.

I do use the modded romance, but I liked Alistair's "moves" long before that and so did many of the posters here.

My mind boggles when I look at the Dark Ritual conversation in the toolset. Did all of the QA people make Alistair king in their games or did they run out of time/money or what? Granted, the shrieking about an heir to the throne and a "dragon...god...whatever!" is hilarious, but it just doesn't make sense if he's not king, especially since he swore that oath at the Landsmeet. One of the mods I have now (dialogue tweaks or fixes it by apparently taking out the "you can't sleep" response, but leaves the shrieking. I think Lady Olivia's patch, which I had before, basically copied and pasted other lines in a couple of places so he didn't say anything about being king or an heir. Apologies to Lady Olivia and ejoslin if I'm totally inaccurate about that-I'm not very mod-savvy at all.Posted Image

I admire your ability to tell exactly how good someone is in the sack from ~15 seconds worth of animation clips (technically 30 secs but half of that is fade in-outs) Posted Image

The first vanilla scene is sweet but is very... well, vanilla ;) in comparison to the other scenes. You really need the mod for him to truly appreciate the wonders of Alistair :D

Then he's more... nefarious :devil:
