I was kind of surprised how "playful sarcastic" she sounded, especially when you compare it to male Hawke's more deadpan "..tell me you didn't try the cake." sarcastic line.

Of course he is. But when I want to tell someone an interesting, epic story, it would not look like this:

"And then a random woman ran to the mighty ogre and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and hit him with her sword and..."

That's not epic story telling :/[/quote]

Actually it is.   Or at least, it can be.   You're just doing the Blow-by-blow  wrong.


Before TV, Boxing matches were broadcast on the radio.  If you've ever listened to the old recordings, they can be extremely dramatic and really fun to listen to, even when the broadcaster is literally going back and forth  calling each shot as it happens.

I'm not too crazy about femhawke's voice to be honest, she sounds so... uppity.


What do you mean by 'uppity'? The meaning I've usually seen that ascribed to is something like 'uppity women these days, don't know their place' - Not sure whether that's what you meant, or if you're using a meaning I've never heard, 'cos I don't see how that meaning of uppity could be a bad thing for a big, bad hero - you don't exactly get to be the big hero by bowing down to the man, after all...

I loved it. Cassandra does not seem as antagonistic as the various snippets have shown her to be. But we shall see when it gets released.

I'm mildly disappointed in that, actually.   From   last week's  2-minute intro movie, we saw a cold, badass interrogator that seemed to be eating Varric for lunch.   Very Very HOT!

But in this demo we see her getting soft, almost sad and desperate, as if Varric gained the upper hand in the battle of wills.  Not so hot.

She is the good cop and the bad cop in one person. classic interrogation technique :)
I like it a lot and it seems more realistic that way. I wouldn't expect Varric to tell a long epic and detailed story if he is under a ton of pressure.

Aveline is awesome! Even more awesome than I thought possible.



Also, Varric has a godlike voice.

By the way, I haven't read the rest of this thread but, is it me or does Mama Hawke have the identical voice actress to Eleanor Cousland? Is it really that hard to find new voice actors, I would rather have someone different playing Mama Hawke as to not keep thinking about Eleanor and my Cousland warden everytime Mama Hawke talks. Not to mention Leandra is the same name that Eleanor's friend who was visiting Highever had.

Seriously Wtf is up with these forums and screaming out "SEXIST!" based on nothing

Femhawkes voice isn't very good IMO or in Estels (sounds likea girl name BTW) Does that makes us sexist?

I've recorded 3 more videos, they are encoded and currently uploading. Don't hold on to your buttes though. it'll take a while. These videos are pretty spoilerific, too, so don't say I didn't warn you.

And man some of you guys take this game WAY too serious.

Might I say I'm jealous, giZm, of you having the demo? ;) Granted, it's probably for the best I can't play it right now.

In any case, looking forward to the next 3 videos. Thanks for taking the time to upload them as well.

Some do.  And others' brands of humor about the game come off as serious.  In any case, thanks for sharing these.

Considering the first two videos remain - and haven't been pulled - I've just bookmarked his Youtube page and checking every now and then.

Uppity = presumptuously arrogant, assuming air's beyond one's station.

What the heck is wrong with all the "omg sexist" mentality on the forums........

^That is a question I was wondering. How long is this demo, time wise? How long did it take you to complete it?

I still dont understand how some folks got the demo even if Bioware changed their minds with handing out keys to GameStop.

Well, he picked all sarcastic dialog choices. I'm sure she'd sound less... uppity... if more serious dialog choices were taken.

Sure, partially it can be attributed to the sarcastic dialog choices but those same lines could have been delivered differently. I dunno, the combination of british english and the cocky delivery (how she changes the pitch in her voice) is a little overkill for me.

I think it has less to do with sexism and more local familiarity with the stereotypes associated with particular English accents.

Thanks for the uploads. Opinions on the game? 

From watching it in HD.. it looks like Origins, but with more "anime" style combat and slightly bet ter graphics, and a crappier UI. Not as bad as I was expecting but.. I dunno. Something about the game seems "off" to me. FemHawke is pretty cool though.
