People, take it from somebody who's been interviewed before (thankfully nowhere on this sort of thing, obviously, but still.) YOU FEEL LIKE A MORON, at least the first time. The fact that she was able to be that coherent on that kind of television is a testament to her level of awesome (and experience in the industry.) If the people on these forums were interviewed on live television about Dragon Age, I guarantee, about 99% of us would say nothing more intelligent than, "Uh, there are... uh, dragons and stuff. And ages. Yeah. It's like, really cool and you can be a mage...er..." Some of us wouldn't even get THAT far. Because talking to your friends or your bathroom mirror is not the same as being interviewed in front of an audience knowing what you did can be seen by people everywhere for as long as the internet exists.
Redemption looks pretty cool. Could just be trailer magic, but I'm definitely going to check it out.

I want to punch Jimmy Fallon in the face. For many reasons. A new one being that he interrupts Felicia Day like a whole 17 goddamn times and I HATE when people interrupt others.

Do not attribute your failings to other people. Generalizations aside, I'm sure 99% of us is more intelligent than you.

She probably has experience explaining fantasy to people before and it basically goes like this:
"Well, there's this other world with magic and dragons and other races in it"
*weird stare*
"You know dwarves and elves and that kind of thing"
*still staring*
"And there there are these creatures called darkspawn, who were originally these mages that tried..."
*staring continues*
"You know... It's like Lord of the rings"
"Oh yeah. I know that movie"
After a while you just say it's like LOTR and don't bother explaining.
At least that how my conversations with people who don't know anything about games or fantasy usually go:( Now that most know the movie you can at least say that. Before the movie I couldn't explain what LOTR was to anyone:p

Looks like LARPers LARPing.
This.
That footage was, uhm, mildly embarrasing.
LOL, that is such a classic video!
But I still stick to my original comments. Maybe it'll be more awesome than that, but they could've at least edited something a little better than crappy camera work while she just runs through the forest. That's all.

kind of reminded me of Xena when I saw the trailer. Well if its as good as Xena (not saying Xena is) then that wouldnt make Dragon Age look so bad right? RIGHT?!

I just watched another interview she did about Redemption. Can be found www.youtube.com/watch.
Anyway, she still used the Lord of the Rings comparison but gets into how it has a modern sensibilities. Then again, the interviewer seems to be much more knowledgeable about games.
And she is till so cute... :happy:

I don't even know why people are discussing it.
To pick at something like that is completely retarded, imo.

Amen
And people, what is up with the hurt. Guys and gals, I love Dragon Age and can accept it does share some stuff with LotR. Not to mention, it makes it an easy comparison for people not familiar with Dragon Age. I know it is hard to believe but not everybody knows about the game!
Then again, there is truly nothing original under the sun anyway so just calm down people. Wow, dramatic people on this forum.... Melodramatic....<_<

I enjoyed the Jimmy Fallon interview. But I didn't take away Felicia Day and Fallon as an ultra geeky couple. I have never watched the guild and barely knew who she was until this event here. She came across as cute and genuinely excited about being able to do projects related to games she likes.
Fallon on the other hand seemed to squirm and be very uncomfortable while he tried to process what this strange girl in front of him was all excited about.
I'm just glad she didn't go on David Letterman! He'd have torn her apart and not even understood what a video game was, hell he'd likely have not known what Lord of the Rings was, watch a clip when he interviewed Sean Bean.

It's in russian but just scroll down and there's a video player. The trailer is the same but it is now accompanied by the Bioware logo and a small introduction with DAII footage. It looks like Hawke finds an Archdemon? Or is it Flemeth?

Now I'm wondering if they're going to try to do a DLC tie-in to the web series.
At first the idea annoys me, but the thought of a Felicia Day-inspired elf assassin as an NPC or even recruitable party member (for that specific DLC, a la Liara in "Lair of the Shadow Broker") is pretty awesome.
I've never even seen her show The Guild, but she's cute as a button and into video games, so that just about qualifies her as the perfect woman.

Felicia Day's Live Web Series DRAGON AGE: REDEMPTION
Pf...pfff...hahahahahahaha
I saw this trailer linked in the sidebar when I was watching the Dead Island trailer and I had to come here to make sure it was real. It really does look like LARP...or a D&D movie *cringe*. Didn't like The Guild, but I'll give this a watch when it comes out.
Now I'm wondering if they're going to try to do a DLC tie-in to the web series.
I'd be amazed if they didn't.

At least she didn't say the Darkspawn were like zombies. Can you imagine if she'd described Dragon Age as LotR with zombies?!Tinxa wrote...

I (sadly) read all the decrying of this project on the forums here and was fully prepared to hate it. Then I finally watched the trailer and was thoroughly impressed. They've guaranteed I'll at least watch the first Episode. I have no clue who Felicia Day is but she looks like an elf to me so - huzzah for more DA. I get it where I can get it.
