I hope to God that Gaider doesn't take some sick pleasure in posting ambiguous posts like that, if it in fact is just a hoax
Dave is a sick, evil man. He gives Hitler a run for his money. And I always thought Hitler was the evilest man in all of history.....Dave's proven me wrong!

Too tired to read the thread in full. Could a kind soul tell me if there have been any word? Or is the speculation still raging like the bulls of Pamplona?
Speculation. All of it.
Gaider didn'tconfirmdeny it though. And by notconfirmingdenying, it's confirmed.
When it comes to these sorts of things people generally aren't allowed to issue confirmations but denial often come fast and furious, especially when it leads to unrealistic expectations.

THIS.
THIS IS OUR FEB 1ST NEWS?
WTF.
I hope you're glad rather then mad, else I'd be rather confused.
Are you kidding? They gave us this mysterious date with Awakening... AWAKENING. I was expecting something to do with Origins.
A demo is great but I like Origins a lot.

Dude, the man feeds off of our tears! What do you expect?
So David Gaider is an emotion eater?
I've always suspected as much..

Maybe DA2 itself is a hoax.
That would explain the incredible lack of marketing.
It all makes sense now.

I already brought that up once, but for the sake of my own happiness I am going to assume that he is being legit and not trying to farm our tears to sustain his life force.
Oh sure, sure. While you're at it, you can also assume that I am a unicorn, and rainbows and sunshine come out of my arse whenever I feel giddy.

And if that is his true goal, he will have enough delicious tears to last him a lifetime.

What if the demo doesn't have femHawke? That would be some serious tear-farming.
Hey, didnt the devs mention a while ago that we'd hear fem hawkes voice? Maybe they meant in the demo, instead of a trailer.

You... you actually expected an anouncement about DA:O?
Seriously confused now, thank you.

I would love a CC. It would keep me busy until the game releases. I can spend quite a bit of time in the CC getting things right.
A demo, however, I am not sure if I would want that. Sorely for the reason of me playing it, and then wanting to continue soooooo badly it will make the wait even worse.
Really? I find demo's as an opportunity to hone your skills for the actual game. If it wasn't for demo's I would have been such a noob at Infamous, when I first got the game.
Although it is hard for me to admit this, I will.....I am not concerned about my skill in RPG videogames. For example, in my multiple playthroughs of ME1, ME2, DA:O, and TES:IV, I have never changed the difficulty setting above normal. For me, playing RPG's is a way for me to "craft" my own virtual narrative within the limits of the game. A very important part of that is the way my PC looks. So, in short, the gameplay is fun for me, but when it comes to RPG's, I don't feel the need to challenge myself and hone my skills with them due to me being more interested in the story, lore, characters, ect. However, I can be very competitive and skill focused at other games, or I guess more accurately, I am very competitive and skill focused at one particular game.

See, I'm the opposite. I'm less concerned with how my Hawke will look than with how the game plays.
Since
there are still concerns about a lot of features - the dialogue wheel,
the combat - a demo would go a long way towards putting those to rest,
either positively or negatively.
I have little to no doubt in my mind that I will enjoy the combat in DA2 immensely more than I enjoyed combat in Origins. This is due to personal preferences in animation, interactivity, etc.
As for the dialogue wheel, I think that the Dragon Age team is doing enough to improve it from the way it was implemented in Mass Effect. I like the focus on intent, which I think is the main focus of communication in general. Instead of text that could be misinterpreted, or a Mass Effect style wheel with loosly defined Paragon and Renegade options, we now have a wheel focused on the intent that you wish to deliver.
So in short, I don't need a demo to alleviate concerns about DA2 because I have none right now.
ON Topic: I would say it is indeed a full on demo. ME2 did it and maybe it increased sales for them. Perhaps the DA team is deciding to take a page from their book.

Yes. I did. What's so confusing about that? It's completely logical.
And you are welcome.

I wish someone would simply confirm or deny it. No offence to anyone here, but this thread has gone far byond speculation and is becoming a chore to read through and find any possible news updates.
Pro-tip: if you go back to the main forum page and click the little blue Bioware text under thread titles, it will show the first post and then all the posts from anyone with a Bioware tag without all the intervening posts from normal users.

How can the demo be "available now" if it's not even 1st yet, anywhere?
Because David Gaider is so all powerful that he can change the course of time itself...it's all of those fan-girl tears that I hear he feeds off of.
On topic, I do hope it is a demo or CC...either/or or both would be delightful. <3

Let me save you the trouble. No one is going to confirm or deny anything until the 1st. Thats just the way it is. The cat may be out of the bag now, but they will not dignify it with a response until the date they were originally going to announce it.

Does seem odd though that they'd mark out this date damn near a year a in advance, hype everyone up with it, and it turns out to be a demo.

And do you always believe dev talk? Decisions and stuff change over a game pretty quickly.
In any case, I just think it's stupid they make a big deal about a bloody demo... A DEMO. They released a teaser about it like half a year ago. That is so wtf.
