Did anyone else think Mike was a bit on edge? I was expecting him to say 'satisfied now?' at the end. lol.

I wish he had shown the overhead view, if it is still in game




You deal with people like Beaner28 and tell me you wouldnt be.


If I was him I would've been like "HAPPY NOW YOU UNGRATEFULL F***S!?!?!?"


But then again I'm not Canadian, so...

I think it's a little less manga & more western comics like Marvel & DC.

Clear console port. The graphics are terrible and not taking advantage of the newer GTX 580s and ATI 5000 series of cards.


No game will really do that for a long time anyway, not just because of consoles but also because the vast majority of PC gamers have much, much lower end hardware.

Look at MMOs like The Old Republic... PC exclusive and thus very low end, actually worse than an Xbox 360 game.

Yeah, every now and again when I see the mods and devs snarking at someone, I have to remind myself that in their shoes dealing with our wankery, I'd be breaking out the flamethrowers and cat o' nine tails.  Gentle snark is pretty good considering all the crap we throw at them.

Looked decent at best. Not a fan of the "manga"ization of the game at all


Pretty much. I don't get this whole 'Dragon Age meets Dragon Ball Z' art style.

**** MANGA

**** ANIME.

I hate this ****ing manga ****.

There's nothing wrong with the art style. It can look really good as we've seen in some trailers and screens.

And I highly doubt anime and manga were any sort of inspiration here. Sure, it's a little more comic-like and cartoonish, but definitely not in those styles.

I can't believe I missed the fact that Varric only goes invis, when in a cloud of smoke. So If I do attacks or spells the kick up a lot of dust, I provide my little Dwarven friend with cover in which to conceal himself while he fires.

This should prove interesting


I'd have to watch it again, I think that's just part of the stealth animation now though.

Proves that the PC version is nothing but a lame console port.-------

If you repeat it hard enough, perhaps someone will pay attention to your trolling.

My guess is riding on the stealth skill places an AoE smoke field which you can then stealth in.  I don't know if any smoke will do.  It probably has to be government  Bioware approved and certified stealthing smoke.

Hello,



Just a question about the combat in the video:



Is the team still adjusting the casting times for higher tier spells such as Firestorm? In the video, the mage seemed to cast it off rather quickly, whereas in DAO it took some time for that same spell to fire (so that it 'could' be interrupted and fizzle).



Thank you

You're wasting your time with these idiots. Even a 9000 series NVIDIA card from 3 years ago is going to give you better graphics than an Xbox 360.

The vast majority have lower end hardware than the top of the line cards he mentioned, not lower than an Xbox 360.  Well... that might actually be true too, if you count people playing WoW and Bejewled as PC gamers.

Thanks for calling me an idiot, but you didn't get what I was saying.  If DA2 was a PC exclusive it likely would look more like TOR, not more like Crysis, because the Crysis model just limits your purchasing base.

cool, now its turned into a PC vs. Console war.





I like how people cant agree to disagree. and instead bicker like school children who argue over who would win in a fight.





Superman or they're Dad.





Lovely...

Since he and I are both PC gamers I don't think it's a platform war, just a disagreement over what the game would be like were it a PC exclusive.

Yes, he is.



God is also a troll. Because before he set the first man on earth he told him DA2 wasnt going to be a clear console port.

Normally, you develop a game for PC to take advantage of the newest GPUs. Then when the console versions are being developed you turn down the visuals. Because a 360 and PS3 just can't compete with newer NVIDIA and ATI GPUs.

They had to do that with DA:O. This is why the Xbox 360 version of DA:O had very bad graphics. Colors weren't as vibrant and it suffered from framerate drops because a 360 just couldn't handle DA:O's visuals. You can't blame BioWare though. The Xbox 360 was released in 2005 and you're getting six year old graphic tech. Makes sense. The PS3 version of Origins was a little better but not by much. At least those of us that had good PCs capable of running DA:O maxed out were rewarded with much better visuals compared to our console counterparts.

Unfortunately, since Dragon Age 2 is being developed PRIMARILY for consoles, all platforms are now limited and hindered by the outdated GPUs of the Xbox 360 and the PS3. Console port.
