I hope that this new event brings us more Varric. And Bianca. More Varric and Bianca. And Isabela. And and and... /brain explodes


I hope to find out if Bianca is the only weapon for Varric or not. Considering there's voice acting associated with the weapon itself, I fear one of the following:
1 - Varric is a temporary companion, he was said to be a companion but never permanent.
2 - Weapons cannot be changed.
3 - Varric names all his weapons Bianca.


Definitely hope it's not the first. That would suuuuuck.

As for the second, I doubt it. If we're getting weapon DLC that means that at least Hawke gets to change weapons. I dunno if they'd remove that option from companions, and I hope not mostly because oh god the rage on the forums :(

Third... that would be kind of funny. Maybe if we do get to change weapons the game recognizes when Bianca is equipped or not?

#3 and I would die laughing. Hopefully we find out this week :)

Edit: Maybe a single weapon per NPC but a much more in depth rune system? Like upgrades instead of getting a whole new weapon. Still customizable, but facilitates hilarity and potentially distressing cargoship.

Yeah, I meant on companions.

Like minds, I see.

I wouldn't mind that. People can shout MASS EFFFECCCTTTT from the rafters but counting on having the same model in all situations can make for more interesting animations. For example, Bianca's (lololol this will be all asterisks) cocking sound effect Ser Gaider described (edit: whoa, that didn't get censored.)

My money is on the ability to customize the Hawkes to the extent of DA:O but, as the other companions are living their own lives, just having some upgrade system with them that is still in depth but isn't weirdly forcing them to go home to their families in massive armor.

Topic for another thread though.

I am totally giving jealous side-eyes at Bianca right now! Brb sobbing into my cheerios even though I totally eat Shreddies every day (in Canada).

That'd be kind of cool... but I love having a variety of weapons. At least for my character, I rarely pay attention to what my party is using as long as it works xD

I'd like that a lot, tbh. While most people will scold me, I heavily doubt we'd be able to take Bianca away from Varric (making him cry at night) and replace it with a dagger or two. One thing I found rather odd in Origins and Awakening was when you took clothing away from companions.

"HEY! LOGHAIN! I'm importing in Awakening, take off your clothes!  THEIR MINE NOW!" sort of left me with this odd feeling. At least when the Warden is naked, you can blame it on the Warden being insane / crazy / odd.

I don't see Varric running around or hanging in the tavern with only his undies.

I agree, and they never look good in the less-than-best armor leftovers you distribute after you've outfitted your Warden. No skin off my back if the companions don't change armor along with stats. Can't wait to see what they decided to do.



And really, how can anyone so much as dare to think about putting Varric in armor? His chest hair might get... sweaty.



/cue chorus of ewwwwws

Ever.

Agreed. Don't take away Varric's waifu. Bianca : Varric :: Tali : Talimancers.

I really agree with you in this. I also don't think Varric will say bye bye to Bianca, and i don't want that either. I've kept Morrigan in her clothes and I couldn't conceive the idea of putting a normal robe on her. Every character should be unique somehow...stillIi don't know how upgrading to different armours would work without the same inventory.

Alas, we will find more in this week's podcast :D

He would do anything for love (but he won't do that).

Varric running around a tavern in his undies would be hysterical, though. It probably takes quite a bit to get him drunk but...

Varric: WHERE'S BIANCA
Hawke: [whistles, hiding Bianca under the table]
Varric: WHERE'S... MY... BIANCA
Hawke & Co: [giggle]
Varric: [rips clothes off] BIANCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Then he goes around in his underwear all snot-nosed and red faced demanding if any of the people in the tavern have seen his wife.

I second this motion and humbly suggest generous amounts of water be added.

Well coiffed, handsome and roguishly charming, John Epler is the Varric of the DA2 Cinematic Design team. Except 6'3".

I pictured it more as hulking out. He becomes giant, green, and extra-hairy, but loses all his smirky powers and is reduced to lip-quivering and sniffles.

Lol, I pictured it all melodramatic, telenovela/soap opera style. He needs to walk out of the tavern (it's also randomly raining) where he falls to his knees and tears his shirt while screaming "BIANCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

@Yuki: Hulking out, followed by that. Oh god DVT won't come fast enough.
