No problem David. I really dont mind either, it's so nice to hear to this podcast. I've listened to the whole episode 9, even if it was "outdated".  I think you guys are doing a fantastic job and keep up the good work. I got sucked in right away. I will spread my love so that more people will listen.
And about the introducing thing in the start of the podcast, dont stop with it. It really makes all of you as believable characters and not some static dolls.

And i think all of you should have drawn pictures of yourselves on the podcast site

I'd like to thank mikemike37 for making mention of my class mod in his mods segment, and pass along a notice to anyone that might want to use it with the Offkorn's mod that I'm working on making the two of them play nice together.

[mikemike37]

no problem at all ladydesire - was glad to start the mod section as a regular feature, and new classes and abilities are some of my favourite mods!



drawn pictures, hey? no promises, but i like the way you think. we need a characaturist! (sp?)

Hey thanks for another great podcast. hopefully tera and kadono would be back soon as well. also thanks to vae for allaying my fears about dragon age 2, u did make some valid points, but i still have my doubts over the simplification of the game. Basically a lot of RPG elements are stripped from ME2 and first thing bioware announced on DA2 was that it would be more action oriented like ME2. So whats the point of customizing your fireball spell if you are given only 2 skill trees to develop, which is exactly the problem in ME2,its scope being very limited. Hopefully bioware wouldnt do that in DA2 atleast on the PC.

Anyways loved the new mod section. I love the Paladin class but haven't tried the class and spec pack. They were releasing updates everyday so I am waiting for a stable version before starting a new playthrough on that.

I have a few more talent extending mods to point out that basically make dog and shale more useful.

also the necromancer spec mod is quite useful. i tried it on awakening.

finally heres a mod that basically gives a **** zombie game mode from COD world at war, your team is in a dungeon fighting waves of darkspawn till death. I enjoyed this mod a lot but the problem is my PC goes down to its knees after i have killed thousands of darkspawn so this one is not for slower machines.

Keep up the great work guys.

[seanu]

wow forgot about the nanny overlord there, i was only describing a game mode

[mikemike37]

hey thanks seanu! sorry we missed your feedback from ep 9, i only spotted it today!



I dont think bioware ever used the phrase "more action-oriented like ME2" or it being simplified in any way... i think you may have fallen foul of misinterpretation by third parties there... but certainly we can expect ME influences. If you ask me, the combo system will only enhance the tactical strategy elements within the game. Of course, console is an entirely unknown area. that may be simplified, will round up the san diego hands-on expierences next episode... keen to learn more myself!



glad you liked the mod section! next episode im looking at a standalone mod and a party camp alternative. I'll see if i can include your suggestion in a future episode, thanks for the pointer!

[uberdowzen]

Another good podcast. I'm glad you took a positive angle with you DAII discussion as I was getting quite tired of seeing so much negativity regarding the changes in the sequel. Also, nice mod section.

Hello hello m'dears!!!

So sorry I wasn't able to make it  for Episode 11: An Injection of Newness.  Moving back to the UK, the internet being de-invented in Dorset and my PC disappearing off  the face of the planet in transit, all conspired to prevent me from joining Vae and mike for the recording.  I was very upset and hope I haven't been usurped by some younger, nerdier, gorgeous floozy.  MYNE *shoves*!!

PC has now turned up in Scotland, so will hopefully be back in my loving arms this week, hurrah!!

But the boys done brilliant, eh? Particularly without my irrelevent, facetious burblings!  I'm a big fan of our new mike's Mod Moment - as you know, we've been looking for a way to do a mod segement for ages, and I reckon this is just the ticket.  And I'm glad Vae sounds so well and perky - heroic considering he's been feeling so horrid AND he did the editing, so enthusistic standing ovation (and gentle hug) to Vae for that, don't you think? 

And I think they both said very sensible, pithy things about the DA2 announcement and information.  I'm with Vae - it's such early days and to get so angry and 'anti' at this stage is a mistake, I think.

And thank you for all your very kind comments about the podcast, you are very sweet people!!  Hugs to you all!

Anyway, I'll be back for the next episode to disrupt, drag off-topic and giggle stupidly a lot.  See you then

Love and best wishes

Tara

P.S.  Meant to say - I hope everybody is having a go at writing a letter from Leliana for our competition.  We'd love to have tons of entries to choose from.  It would be great if the competition was a success, then we can do more!! Get writing folks.

But we'd be lost without your irrelevent, facttious burblings.

If anyone is not feeling postive about DAII then just go here. Despite being an early (console *hiss*) build it looks one hell of a lot like the Dragon Age we all know and love.

[mikemike37]

shhh! you'll give away all of our news items for next podcast! hehe, that video is indeed encouraging

Ooh, good point. What video? I see no video...

[mikemike37]

Kidding. Now you can discuss it on the podcast.

[mikemike37]

yeah i added it to my super-secret list of news a couple days ago

Great!    Im overjoyed Tara will be able to join up again for the next Podcast... Glad she could at least recover her PC after all... Thats why whenever I travel I just carry a handbag... :-) Guess with moving an entire household you couldnt do that, right? *giggles*
Thats one bright side of the darkspawn... when they finished living in one house they just destroy everything and move to the next. LOL

Hey guys,

I recently finished Dragon Age for the first time and am pretty new to BSN. Thanks to Tara for being my first and best BSN friend. I love the show and have finally caught up on all the episodes. I do have some suggestions that I stole from other radio shows and/or podcasts.



1) Have some of the fan fiction writers on to read excerpts of their stories. It would be entertaining to hear how they envisioned the story being read.



2) See if you can get people to send in recordings of questions. It's kind of hard to get people to do it but adds to the entertainment value if you can understand what they're saying.



3) Ask people to send in short show intros. Get them to record something like "Hi, this is (whomever) and you're listening to the dragon age podcast." plus whatever personal stuff they want to throw in. Put that over some standard intro music and it works out pretty well.



That's all I can think of now. Not sure if they're worth doing, but I just thought I'd throw them out there. Keep up the great show.

[VaeVictus X]

Episode 12 is now available. The original post has been edited to reflect the latest release date.

[Serenade]

Great episode, but it had some audio issues.
I will also say that i want to support the contents, but it's also a dilemma because i dont own the game on the PC, considering that the prices is for PC only. If you know what i mean? I dont like to participate in contests that have rewards i can't even use. 

 Anyways, you guys are doing a fantastic job

Yay another episode, downloading now. And waiting for Steam to put up DA2 so I can preorder there.



@Master Bandit, if you have the PC to run it do buy it on Steam, its cheaper and you get Steam Cloud and Mod Support.

[VaeVictus X]

Thanks for the comments guys. Master Bandit, we would love to offer console players prizes as well, but unfortunately those have to go through Microsoft or Sony. We're looking into it for the future, but we don't know when or if it'll happen. We'll keep trying of course. I'll do my best to improve the audio quality as well. Was there a specific section where you noticed the problem? Could you describe the audio issues you noticed so I can better address them in future episodes?



Also, I do recommend the Steam version, but I'm a fan of Steam overall as well.

[seanu]

@vae well you should be,with that many games on your account. I have just 9 so far.



But you have only 5 hours on L4D2, that's just wrong. If you wanna play that invite me over.



BTW the new DA DLC coming next week sounds the best yet. Cant wait to see the newer darkspawn. They are like the fastest evolving creatures in games. What next a pinning 'Hunter' darkspawn... actually that would be cool.

[Tennyochan]

nice ep. first time listener here.
the community contest interview thing was funny. his accent made me giggle- especially when he swore LMAO

edit: you should look to writting the time stamps for each section/topic in the podcast. (eg, MOD, Communitiy, news etc)

[Drizzt ORierdan]

Yes, hes Swede,    I guess... I think with this being an international community you have to be understanding (I surely speak with Spanish accent and I miself wouldnt force myself to listen to myself... ) lol

The letters were really good ( not saying because Im one of the winners..   ), and definetly way better than the one you read in Awakenings, that one was preetty lame...

Nice podcast guys,     though a bit short. And what about Matt? Is he ever coming back?, cause you didnt mentioned him at all. 

[VaeVictus X]

Matt will be returning to the show whenever he has the time. For now, real life issues are simply in the way. He'll be back though, so don't worry about that. We're just not sure when.
