I don't know if this has been already discuss but if we are going to see Leliana in DA2 I wonder if the new art style face morph is going to be more look alike to the CG or to the DAO in-game face. I really like both but I prefer the CG.
What do you think?

Shovels got the hot rod samurai treatment, they are now oars.

Oh god, the phrase "hot rod samurai" sends me into convulsions over how annoying I find it.

You'll have to get used to it, unfortunately. It's being thrown out everywhere just like "BDF" and such.

Further proof BioWare's marketing team still managed to make the "hot rod" catch phrase stick, if perhaps not in the way they might have intended. I hope Leliana does not reappear in Dragon Age 2. Presumably she should be out with my Warden. If I see her again then something went very wrong there.

If your PR lines are excellent for comic relief, then there is a glitch in the system!

BDF?
Shorthand terms for broad concepts are pretty common. I hear the phrase "special sauce" occasionally and it means something different on a case by case basis but when you hear "needs more of that special sauce" you know it's back to the drawing board because something isn't totally awesome yet.

It still creates buzz. Sure, a cross section of the community may be using it as a point of mockery but they are still talking about your game.
"Any publicity is good publicity," and all that.

The nerdraging fanboys consider it a sin to be BioWare fans, so they have dubbed all that are the "BioWare defense force" because we are stupid enough to think BioWare will make a good game.

I don't know, but I'm thinking of Toshiro Mifune driving The Deuce from Brütal Legend, and it's awesome.

Yes, but the story of DA2 starts in Lothering were Leliana used to live before join the warden so is very possible that we can see her there.

The destruction of Lothering, where Leliana would probably be off with the Warden (if not left behind to die).

To be fair, I think is an unfair claim. I know at least one person that has used this phrase, and it is not because they feel it is a sin to be BioWare fans. It is because they feel their criticisms, formed by personal taste and experiences with older BioWare games, are dimissed out of hand simply for expressing reservations with the direction of Dragon Age 2. I have only seen one person argue a bit too passionately throw around the BDF tagline.
The fact is, we are *all* BioWare fans to an extent. If a person is not a BioWare fan, they would not be here nor would they care enough to debate a point, regardless of which side of the fence upon which they sit. Only a person with absolutely no life at all, and possibly possessed of questionable sanity is going to mindlessly rage against a company or its fanbase just for kicks.
Throwing out retaliatory statements such as this is as bad as the behavior from others you find offensive. Rather than dividing this community, we should all be trying to understand one another. If we cannot, then we just move on and ignore. Honestly, it is no so hard to debate without taking swipes at each other. Sorry I took your post as a reason to climb on my soapbox, Duncan, but as a regular lurker I am very tired of this whole us versus them mentality flourishing here.

In my game, Leliana went to study the Urn, but the dragon was alive, so who knows how long that will last. Also, Morrigan told the warden that something big was up. It's possible that wardens who didn't go with her might get the band back together.Dave of Canada wrote...

if at all possible i'd like the game to start before the destruction of lothering, letting me see hawke's lifestyle before the blight destroys it, i feel like it would be best for the player to feel attached to lothering first instead of going headfirst into the it's destruction.

Yeah. That. Unless Dragon Age 2 kicks off before Lothering is overrun by darkspawn, we are unlikely to meet her. Based on the demos, it seems Varric's tale begins long after the Warden and company moved on.

I sense reactivity... maybe a second chance to recruit her if you didn't in DAO

I don't really wish to turn this thread off-topic but... it's devolved into a derogatory term rather than one where anybody feels threatened, instead of arguing or talking about something they'll go into a thread and mockingly say "OH LOOK THE BDF LOL". It's essentially calling anybody who defends anything a blind fanboy, even if the "defending" is misinformation.
When I even suggest I have a dislike for something, they'll immediately jump on my back and mock me for it.
The term means nothing, it just gets annoying how much it's thrown around falsely.

I ...really doubt that. I mean, how many people do you think honestly left Leliana behind?

Doubt it, they'd need to write Leliana's character for the adventure in DA2 / they'd have to write dialogue for her and they'd have to bring back the voice actress for only a small portion of people.
