So...umm...why didn't he come with the main game instead of making people pay extra or pre-order?

His story probably doesn't have much to add to the regular story. That's usually how it is with extra characters.


Really?  Because I thought it was because it is a nickel and dime tactic that started when Bioware was indoctrinated by the rEApers.

I remember that John Epler stated that the final details (polishing the game) are done last.

My first impression upon seeing the DLC was this: delicious. Sebastian is indeed handsome, great accent and the acting is superb (the delivering of the lines: poignant and the music really increased the tension of the situation: awesome). The animations truly depict the interaction of two live people: quite fast and smooth.

My next thought was that maybe the DLC was shot on earlier in the development process or maybe on low resolution. Then I looked at the surroundings.

The interaction took place in a light absent context blocked by the building and by time of day, (It looks like it is in the late afternoon five p.m. onward. A street lamp is lit.), in which nuances of light and shadows would be absent, hence why his (the grand cleric, too) outfit and his features may appear dull. The art style is indeed different.

As for the environment, I cannot really comment upon it and be fair, for I need more than 20 seconds, and that it does not focus on the companion itself.

Edit: Lead Developer, Mike Laidlaw stated we will receive new goodies next month and I am really looking forward to it.   Thanks for Sebastian Bioware (Alec Newman is my girl crush) for I know you will do his story justice. :)

Ummm...I am discussing the character. I want to know why people are going to have to pay extra for him when he is already ready three months prior to release.

... Yeah, sweetheart, that isn't about him as a character, sorry to burst your EA hatin' bubble.

Wooooooooooooooooow the character trailer looked awesome!!! The graphics are waaay more polished and smooth.The animation seemed smooth and GAWD I LOVE his accent!!!!! XD


I liked the graphics as well, especially the warmer, more lush colours. Not just everything brown. I also thought the faces were pretty detailed. All in all, I was very happy with that trailer. I am starting to get hyped. :lol:

He isn't part of the original game, DLCs have different budget, and they're offering it for free if you pre-order before the 11th, if you pre-order now you can cancel anytime between now and launch day and you don't have to pay any money yet, what more do you want them to do?

No. It's not. That's discussing their means of releasing him, not the character himself. Discussing him as a character would be talking about the information we've been given on his character (like his connection to the Chantry or his princehood) or,  well, fangirling is permitted, but only if we're civil about it.

So basically you are saying that I can only post if it is about what you want it to be about.  Sorry...Sabastian is DLC and therefore discussing DLC is part of his character.  It is connected to him regardless what you want to tell me.

Haha, oh god. This is rich. His being DLC is not part of his character. His being DLC is part of the distribution of his character. Take your "oh noes, he's DLC, down with the EA overlord!" elsewhere.

I am wondering the same thing and indeed it would add to his mystique (nod nod).  I sure hope so.  :)

report him and be done with it. don't even bother responding to him.
if a moderator agrees with you, his post might be edited out and he'll get a warning if not just ignore him.

Usually, I wait to get to know a character in-game before I pass judgment. But (to my embarrassment), that trailer did make me squee. And, I've figured out why!

Ah Disney...


You know, the Beast lost all personality when he turned back into the Prince in Beauty and the Beast.


Probably because, in Disney Princess Movies, the Princess gets all the personality. Not everybody can have the looks AND the brains, right? :pinched:


Ahem. ME.

I've got the looks AND the brains. I'm still waiting for my real life Belle to somehow come into my life. I can then live the happiest life ever lived.

Some of you people are impossible. You sit on here and ***** and moan about not knowing enough about the game, and when they release teasers and things, you complain about the graphics, lack of LI ability, story, and character comparisons. No wonder some of the devs are so frustrated on here. If people spent so much time crapping on things it took me years to complete based on a damn 30 second teaser, I would be frustrated too.

Welcome to the internetz?:huh:

Then why are you guys always complaining about the devs if you already know the rules of the internet? That makes no sense.


I... haven't been? I rarely complain about anything let alone the devs.

Anyway, am I the only one who thinks he looks like a very young clean shaven Christpher Eccleston? I think it's the nose that does it.

Now marvel at my oh-so-suave topic returning skills.:wizard:

tl;dr

This is what we were doing before you chimed in. Your negavity did nothing but sidetrack the topic. Which is what I've said twice now. Why exactly are you arguing with me? My post wasn't meant as an attack though you took it like that. There's no need for you to get nasty.

*snip*


My thoughts exactly! :lol:


That part I left in, was my reply to you. The rest was getting back on topic, since most of us here are fangirls squeeing over him, iirc. Not all of us need to throw around curse words or insults laced into paragraphes in order to get to a point.

Actually, the biggest attracting feature of the SE would be, arguably, him, but he will be avaible for individual download later on as well, for around $7. The other goodies that come along with Seb are other downloadable weapons/armor as well as a downloadble soundtrack for DA2.
