Heck yeah!

This thread drinks cases of Red Bull and bench presses Jack Thomas, it is that awesome.


True dat son! Although I took away some of the awesomeness when I put a "?" instead of a "!!"Posted Image

i would actually love this. good sense of the combat, and a chance to form a little bit more of a connection with Carvar and Bethany before one of em eats ogre foot


The biggest problem with this is that those who didn't download it might feel a little weird if it is referenced. Also, a lot of people don't want more spoils than we already have. I am pushing for the PAX demo.


haha not to be rude, but in an effort to get less spoilers, you want the PAX demo (which is the opening of the game) instead of a completely unrelated mini-story? that just doesn't make sense to me, but to each their own Posted Image

and even if it were referenced, to those who never play the demo, it could just seem like a reference to some event in the family history. these are siblings after all, they grew up together,  it makes sense that they would have stories and references to events from before DA2 takes place.


We already know all of what happened in the PAX demo. If it were to be that, then there would be new info about each character. A weak excuse, but I just want the PAX demo.

I still hope this demo is a character creator

I see the devs are still firmly avoiding the thread

I doubt any devs are still on, it's a Sunday. And it's probably late over in Edmonton. I'm with ya on the hope that it's Character Creator.


It's almost 21:00 (9pm)


Nope it is 11:02pm.  Sheesh you and your wrong time zones.

I guess with any demo the thing to consider would be whether its taken directly from the game, or if like the demos for Arkham Asylum or Dead Space 2, its a mish mash of levels sort of glued together to give you a more complete picture of the whole game?

Then again, seeing as a good number of people on the internet think you can't customize Hawke, its likely a good idea to include the character creator with any demo.


That's why I'm thinking it ones of the later incarnations of the demo seen at the conventions

You get  to make a custom Hawke, play any gender or class and get a  taste of the normal and exaggerated combat without going past any really important parts of the game.

They could add something or go in a different direction but I would be truly surprised if they did so.

Just a warning to those acting like idiots: knock it off with the spam. If you want to discuss the speculation, then do so. If you don't have anything to add, don't post. Thanks.

The thing is, the demo at the conventions- didn't it basically open up where you start as default exaggerated Hawke, play through that, then enter character creation once you get to Varric and then go through the "real" version of events? Would they release that whole bit as a demo? Seems like quite a bit.

Actually you never entered character creation at all, you just chose your class and gender, but couldn't modify appearance. And you also couldn't play as a mage, at least at PAX (you could still control Bethany if you liked, though, so it wasn't too bad).


****DEMO SPOILER ALERT**** (highlight below)


You started out in the exaggeration bit like you said, with just you and Bethany (maybe Carver too, I can't recall) running away from Lothering. When you get to Flemeth's appearance, Cassandra calls BS and you start over with Carver and Leandra with you, and this time you meet Aveline and Wesley along the way. I never got to finish the demo, but the choice about Wesley's fate is included. Flemeth strikes a bargain with you and I'm not sure what's after that.


****END DEMO SPOILER ALERT****

I haven't a clue what happened in the PAX demo, and i'd bet i'm not the only one.

I can totally see this being the PAX demo. Though I really hope they wouldn't limit us to one or two classes.

I know I've seen some custom Hawke's in the wild and I thought they came from the later convention demos but I might have imagined it. Anyone got some confirmation for me either way?

EDIT: NVM easier to find that I thought it would be.

how cruel for a dev to show up, only to tell us to pipe down.

It's like a hot summer day where the ice cream truck stops for no one.

So they aaaaare watching.  Wonder if they're all in a rage because of the potential leak?  In the end, we're all adicts waiting for the whatever the demo turns out to be... so it's not like anything got upset besides their plan.

Still, I'm betting 48 hours from now we're all making some hot hot DA2 characters.

Haha all we got was yelled at. Oh well. On topic I want the CC just so I can see what beards we get this time around. I love beards and was very displeased with what was offerd in DAO. DA2 seems like it might have some hope.

uhm..this seems to be a good indicator that something is brewing...if nothing was going on he would have firmly denied all of it (like with the Fernis being a mage thing)

No denial either though, AND we didn't get locked. Which, after all the "spam" (read: awesomeness), is a miracle in and of itself.

Gaah! You posted. And didn't say anything.

*scratches chin*

Eh, I saw it coming. Onwards with the (now dev watched) speculation!

I wonder if there must be some truth to this demo rumor, since David hasn't closed this thread. You would think false information would be called out by a dev.



And jeez David, don't you ever get any sleep?
