She should've called BS the second he described Hawke. She knows how everone else looks. :lol:


No, she doesn't. Your siblings and your mother match whatever you look like. So he got them wrong, too.

It might be possible that CC happens before the game in the final version.

However, if not, my assumption is not that that Hawke is what everyone thinks you look like, or what Varric says you look like. It is simply a powerful, mighty warrior. Hawke can be a balding, fish-lipped freak, but that's not people's idea of him. Their idea of him is of a mighty warrior, and the picture Varric is painting is of one. The actual appearance is irrelevant. In the legends, you are intimidating, so you should give the sense of that.

EDIT: Pffft, nope, guess I'm wrong, by Word of Kirby.

You play better as warrior in the last 2 parts. Why do you change to male mage Hawke for the third part?

Identical to the rings they had in Origins to denote current target, seperate friendly from party from enemy and so on.

You can toggle them off on the PC, and toggle them on on the consoles, as you prefer. They ship off by default on consoles, since the targeting is fundamentally different, but they can still be turned on if you love em.


we still have the backstab bonus? like in origins that the area behind the enemy was in Black instead Red?

I was referring more to the book of companions. 

Though really Varric only getting them wrong when you don't play default is kind of lame. At lesat in ME Shep had a helmet on. 

Though she doesn't know how Hawke looks? What kind of lousy seeker is she?

Voice is hot, accent. Not so much. Suppose that's supposed to be orlesian?

Sis dies only if you play a Mage character.

As for the death scene.. Well, everyone (except Aveline, possibly, and the player char) is in shock - mom especially so, and with a 3-ton monster around, there is no time for slo-mo 5 minutes of wailing, after all. Real drama doesn't have that fancy Hollywood polish some allude as 'raw emotion'... the big hit is when it really sets in, perhaps even days later, but not in that instant.


I agree. Especially with darlspawn still attacking around them, you cant expect Hawke to just break down and have a good cry over her then and there. We may see the grieving process throughout the course of the game. Or, maybe we get to ressurect her using whatever ritual Flemeth is having us do.

That death scene was pretty lackluster. I could never imagine a mother reacting that way to losing a child. She would probably be in hysterics or shock. "I'll never forget you"?? Are you kidding? Of course you won't, she's your bloody daughter! It just seemed bizarrely disconnected, like waving some WE ARE SAD banner instead of displaying raw, brutal emotion. Sure, it's a tough time and you might become desensitized to so much violence, but there's no way a sibling dying would warrant a few lukewarm lines. Of all of them, Wesley and Aveline seemed the most sympathetic, which really makes no sense given the context.

If I saw my brother's head get smashed in I would be almost catatonic. If Hawke's a hero that response wasn't all that heroic.


Personally, I was hoping Wesley would say something douchey and Mamma Hawke would beat the ever-loving ****** out of him.

And Aveline would just watch.

"You deserved that, sweetie."

Wow. That 3rd vid just kills me. Sis dies really? I hope there is a way to prevent that.

That ogre battle was the most boring thing I have ever seen. It looked like her attacks were doing 1 point of damage per attack. If battles are like that in the real game then they really failed.


There is a way to prevent it.

And at least it wasn't Hawke running around and the Ogre trodding along while getting plopped down by a hail of arrows...

Overall, the Ogre's impact seemed a bit...weak.  Even if I didn't know it was coming, I would've been a bit underwhelmed.  I mean, it just pops out and kills a character.  There's no build up.  There's no tension.  At least in Origins, the Ogre appeared suitably more badass, complete with it tearing into armored soldiers instead of little girls.

On the other hand, I guess we should be worried that the Darkspawn are breeding ninja ogres.

Nevarran. She's Nevarran royalty. I love her accent. I have no idea what it's equivalent is.

You don't like her accent? I think its sexy. 

Though I'm not sure about the orlesian bit. I don't think so.

So who dies if you play a rogue? I figured I'd play that first anyway since to me they are the most fun. AND, in DA:O they were required due to locks.

Oh! Poor, brave Bethany. And then they have to just leave her body there. :crying:

But thanks for uploading all these, giZm!

I just realized I think that Aveline's voice sounds like Emma Fielding...

Carver dies if you don't play a mage. 

Bethany dies if you play a mage.

When I saw that part it looked exactly like DA:O. But I think it had to do more with the player honestly. I think if he paused more, and was a bit more tactical, things would have turned out better...

Action RPG my ass. 

I suspect that's more because the attacks are faster so you see the same animation over and over (and over) more often... so you get bored of it faster. That there's no visible reaction from the target to all these supposedly so powerful and over-the-top moves doesn't help, either.

Then Carver bites the dust.

Edit: Beaten to it. :P

Because the first exaggerated sequence is the idea of Hawke, not the real thing. That's my assumption, anyway.


I hope, at some point, when my Hawke meets Cassandra, she'll look at Varric and go "WTF I thought you said he was white!?"

Thats... Exactly the same as in origins :blink:. Even less so since Aveline occasionally mixed it up a bit. 
Also thats the way Ogres are. The only way you'll get a reaction out them when attacking is if you stun them which she did once.

Varric said the chantry is falling to pieces and needs hawke's help. What'd the chantry do i wonder? Did they kill andraste then lie and say it was tevinter or something?

:lol: That will be glorious. 

You said he was white and had a beard! He's a bald black man, clean shaven with tattoos all over his face! How on earth did you get that wrong? 

Edit: And Aveline constantly using the same stabbing animation was pretty meh. I never noticed that in origins because of the tatical cam but I havea feeling that's going to annoy the hell out of me in this game.

Seriously when she was attacking the orge I could just image someone just clicking the mouse button over and over and over. Even the sword slash sound got old. I can only think of once or twice in DA:O that a battle ended up like that (usually against a reverant met at an early level).



Let's hope that when we meet ogres later on they fall quickly like they did in DA:O.
