On a serious note, 

I think this won't change till more women get into the medium.

My g/f loves DA and ME...and does get a little pissed when they always talk about Shepard...and probably will with HAWKE...but they are wanting the majority audience. 

Also funny how both names sound masculine...those I suppose that's because our society associates masculinity with those two icons...a Hawk and a Shepard. 

I have one year left of college and wish I had time to take a gender studies course...

There is apparently a widely held notion that if a story involves a female protagonist, then the story is specifically for girls/women (and therefore men won't buy it).

Hmmm...perhaps, but then you have games like Bayonetta and Laura Croft....though they are poor examples...seeing as they appeal to the nether regions of ales rather than anything else.

Then you have games like Beyond Good and Evil which, while not financially successful was critically acclaimed....

I think it may also be the FPS crowd these days....Though Gears of War 3 is advertising a female supporting character....not sure what her role is...

Well yeah...if a story with a female protagonist sells well with men (not only games--I really mean any kind of story), odds are it was meant to be titillating.  Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, but I think you see my point...

Or do you also hold that you should speak your mind on things without then engaging in any further discussion on the matter?

Uh, no?

[GreenSoda]

Apparently there were a dozen or so screenshots in the GI article, as well.



Anyone with the magazine interested in telling us how they look ?...with talks of a new visual art style and all that...

Why does his right hand have claws? Could this be something related to the survival of the blight? half ghoul & half human? Or is he a ghoul that has kept his sanity? Does this make him better than the wardens?

[mllrthyme]

I asked this in an earlier post, so pardon my redundancy, but do we even know that they bearded man on the cover art is Hawke?

Pretty sure it is. You'll find that the fem version has the claws as well.

[Lolzika]

can't we create our own characters in DA2?

You can apparantly customize your own character but they are going to be either a Human male or Human female

well you can make your own version of a human character

[Myusha]

Hm...Hawke...He's going to be able to do somethings so devastating that we'll have no choice but respect him. I can just feel it!

its just a part of the armor he's wearing i think

[Earion-Lun]

awesome¡¡¡¡¡¡

[skyde]

I liked Mass Effect and Dragon Age but I am not sure how I feel about this new "no choice in char creation" part... that sort of moves DA2 out of the roleplaying game genre and closer to adventure game genre. Sad about that.

[Aradace]

I actually, (before anything was released on this game) was worried about DA2. As Ive said in other threads on this topic, I am personally HAPPY that DA2 seems to be going the way of Mass Effect in some ways. Because, IMO, I've always thought that DA would have been a better game as a whole had they taken this route to begin with. The ONLY thing that would make me anticipate this game more, is if there was going to be a New Game Plus feature this time around.



TBQH, they could do a 180 and decide to make this game like the first DA again (unhappy as that would make me) but so long as there is a New Game Plus feature this time around, I'd still go ahead and buy it lol.

[the1npc]

really not sure how I feel about this

right now it seems like they are catering to consoles

I'll wait for a video though

I don't get it. Other than DAO non of the Bioware games had more than one origin. So were those games adventure games as well?

[synoke]

Wow, everyone STOP COMPLAINING!!!! Honestly, Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic had a BASIC character Revan. Bioware started there. Then KoTOR2, you played as the "exile". one base character, change faces etc. Then they went to mass effect. same deal except main character spoke. THEN Dragon Age, NOT Dragon Age Origins, just dragon age, they soon changed it, because they wanted to make "Origins", they made a whole new thing tried something new. What they are doing is LISTENING to the MAJORITY, and NOT the whiners etc. Now they are going back to what they did best with there "main character" thing. I liked it, I enjoy rpg. I will always love playing DA:O and the expansion. I will always do things diffrently. but listen Dragon Age 2 IS NOT "Dragon Age: Origins 2" See a diffrence in name? DA:O you MADE your origin, learn the story from YOUR character. In 2, there is NO ORIGIN. You now know what happened and you know what is going on. We have a character from the 1st already, you making him powerful, from a bad past. That's it.

EDIT** No they are NOT catering to consoles. How so? I don't see how they are. They are making a game, no problem, battle system will prolly be same way, the PC version will have: Better interface, better data transfer rate, and NO LAG like the glitched laggy console versions. Sorry, but true fact.

It works well for Mass Effect, but Dragon Age: Origins and Awakening make a finished story. I want to reimagine a new character thankyou very much :happy:
