Gamestar has posted a clip (in German) about a visit of the EA showcase in London (click here). Starting at the 6 minute mark there is also some gameplay footage from DA2 (console version).

Thanks. If anyone else is able to view it - it is streaming much too slowly for me - can they answer if the person playing it actually tried to play it like a tactical RPG this time?

Well no new info appart from the fact that Aveline still does not put proper armor on at this point in the game. On the other hand you can meet Isabela early in game, so Aveline might just be too low level for platemail at this point. But keeping a sword and shield warrior in the clothes that Aveline wears in the beginning would be worse than Isabela´s choice of clothes so I hope that it does ot happen.

Like the loading screen.
Apparently Aveline is more than just a temporary companion? If she's just a temp, she lasts a little longer than usual.

Other than that, didn't see much.

Much, thank you.

The loot screen, have we seen that before? I haven't checked all of the leaked videos, so I have no idea.

[Catsith]

Thanks. Did they enjoy it? Whats their verdict.

Yeah, in one of the earlier leaked videos Hawke loots a dead refugee, grabs a Stam and Mana pot off 'em.

Aveline better get some massive armor.

i'm enjoying the new setting in this demo.

Dang it, why couldn't I have studied German instead of Japanese. *sigh* Ah, the youtube link did work a lot better - ty! That was interesting - unless I'm mistaken, it seems as if party members' portraits are invisible unless you pause and go into a menu (couldn't see exactly what the player did, but I saw some screen pop up and then the portraits appeared in the bottom left) or enter into combat. Maybe that's console-specific? Pity she didn't engage in tactical combat.

The player thinks that combat is more caotic and easier, though that might be because it is a demo on the XBox. The character system is more accesable, hardcore rpg players might complain that it is too basic and dumped down. Overall she liked the game and looks forward to a pc version.

See me and her got alot in common.

Probably, given the push-to-attack feature - and who knows what the difficulty is set to.

We've seen screenshots of that I believe, in the latest blog (Isabela) and leaked (Hawke).  Hawke seems about the same, Isabela (and thus companions) did seem simpler if more unique.

Did she have god-mode on? That might be one reason it seems easier. So far as I know, BW has left god-mode on in all the demos so that people don't eat it (of course, if could still actually be easier even w/o god-mode on).

EDIT: Forgot to add that the environment looked quite nice to me.

god mode is on for hawke, though party members don't get that luxury. in one of the videos, a guy tried to do hacky slashy style and that got his whole party except for hawke killed.

Ah, thanks. Well, let's just hope that's because they improved the console controls quite a bit or that she's just naturally gifted at it. I can only imagine the potential outpouring of rage if it turns out that combat is somehow super-easy now (although based on what the devs have said in the past, you shouldn't be able to just waltz on through combat the farther you go in the game). Maybe I should just hide out in a bomb shelter again.

Surprise, surprise! Reminds me a lot of Dragon Age origins.

Who is the fourth party member? I can identify Aveline and Bethany. But who's the fourth? Seems like Varric, but his portrait seems a little off.

[Xrissie]

Oh man, German is such an ugly language. No offense.

Anytime I see something like this I think of how English must sound to people who don't speak it.  There are lots of examples on Youtube, search for "Fake English."

(Not assuming you're a native English speaker, just that it reminded me of that idea)

Actually, I have to say I find it interesting - but maybe that's because I remember watching part of Wagner's Ring Cycle at a fairly young age. That or it has something to do with my fondness for the Gabriel Knight series.

It's Varric.  I downloaded the HD video on Youtube and paused it in a few places.  It's definitely him, you can even see Bianca.

Another reason why the combat in this particular video looks short and easy is because it looks like she has a full 4/4 team plus Isabela who is fighting on their side.  And the enemies appear to be regular mooks, and there are not too many of them.
