Oh crap, sewer tunnels. I bet my boots there'll be some murderous thing lurking down there, and guess who'll have to take up disinfestation?  That's right, us.

I'm expecting a rat quest and settling for nothing less.

Sniff! I shall not dare to sully my boots in low places such as lowtown and darktown. I have greater ambitions and they do not lie downward but upward. If one slinks around with the low rabble one becomes one or just as bad, becomes sympathetic to them.


Trian? Is that you? 

EDIT: Looks nice anyhow.

Wow, those concept art pieces are gorgeous. Very atmospheric.



What I wanna know is, who maintains all these ginormous red awnings? I mean they're huge! Look at the scale in the second pic. I'm surprised they aren't entirely covered in seagull poop and feathers.

I third the need for rat quests. And brothels.

Well there's gonna be a brothel *somewhere* in Kirkwall. Lowtown seems like a likely spot.

The Lord High Launderer of Kirkwall is the one who officially presides over the awnings, and the care and maintenance thereof. It is an ancient and respected position that dates all the way back to the Tevinter Imperium.

It could be in dark town, although I shiver at the thought of what might be on offer if such was the case. >.>

They'd never put the brothel in Lowtown. What if there was a tidal wave? Maker forbid the brothel should be destroyed in the event of a natural disaster!

That would be a very sad day, indeed.
We need the Brothel in a higher place! To enjoy the view...you know...

C.H.U.D!
...sorry.
*I'm too fixated on this sewer thing. Movies have taught me only bad, man eating things live in sewers. If it's not giant rats, it's alligators. Or yes, mutants.*

Lowtown looks ... fun.
Does that make me a bad person...?

So beautiful! Oh, and I know that probably no one cares, but the man with the cape in the first art (in the front of the first door, with something that looks like a sword in his back), he looks kinda cool :P

A hint that we can look forward to a high class brothel for Kirkwall located in Hightown? Or did you mean to say Darktown and the tidal wave you speak of is one of a more horrid, sewer based, nature. :sick:

I just can't wait to see what the 'surprise me' option has in store for us this time around. There will be a surprise me option won't there?

kinda looks like the one in the second picture, looks like they're carrying the same thing anyway.

Also: in the second picture, the guy with the juggernaut looking armor; can anyone make out the symbol on his pauldron/shoulder? Like, if it's familiar or not *never really ... focused on crests that much in DA:O ... heh*

*P.S. The shield in the second pic. has a griffon on it :B
Are them Lowtowners pawning off goodies? From the dead ...? >.>

If there'll be prostitutes, then they must be clean prostitutes.



And, obviously, the 'surprise me' option will be about crates.

Hey, people. In the second picture, there's a griffon shield.

I'll win a prize?

Edit: I'm really sorry about the double post D:

This is great. I just see the first piece of concept art and think bazaar. I truly hope lowtown will be a huge labyrinthine area (as in just lowtown, not as a part of another area but it's own exclusive zone) that you can explore and get lost in.

Lowtown

...

So...what are your thoughts on this?


It makes me want to name my character Sho'nuff.

Hawke: Am I the meanest?
Hawke's Goons: Sho'nuff!
Hawke: Am I the prettiest?
Hawke's Goons: Sho'nuff!
Hawke: Am I the baddest mofo low down around this town?
Hawke's Goons: Sho'nuff!
Hawke: Well who am I?
Hawke's Goons: Sho'nuff!
Hawke: Who am I?
Hawke's Goons: Sho'nuff!
Hawke: I can't hear you...
Hawke's Goons: Sho'nuff!
Hawke: *takes off glasses* Shogun of Kirkwall.

Oh, and sewers... bleh. I hope there's something more interesting than rats in there. In fact, I hope there aren't rats. I'm eternally tired of rats.

B-but, there will still be hookers in Lowtown at least?
