DAO seems to have humour in just the right places, whether it's Alistairs attempts to hide his insecurity through jokes, Lelianna's poor attempts to hide her major crush for the female PC, you teasing her about her "fruit", Oghren's crudeness, and your flirting with Duncan or Bann Teagan, but I'm not sure about how funny DA2 is. Not to trash the game or anything, because there are many things in the demo that I really liked, but Hawke's attempts at humour in it just falls flat. The game seems to give you a humourous dialogue option all the time, but nobody reacts to your remarks. This makes poor Hawke seem like an awkward person trying to be funny. Maybe it's the voice and facial expressions too. Like I personally thought that virtually all of Shepherd's attempts at humour simply in the 2 MEs are quite dull because of his/her monotone voice and lack of facial expression when doing it, and Hawke seems to have the same problem, though the VAs are definietly better than Shepard. Humour also seems to be poorly integrated with the context, and it is quite bizarre to see Hawke being a joker when running for his/her life against darkspawn. Maybe the game tries too much to be funny, without considering when humour would be best placed.
Also, there are some scenes in the demo seems to be lost opportunities for humour. Like Varric's exaggerated fight scene for Hawke at the start seems only a little exaggerated. If he was really trying exaggerate the story to tick off Cassandra, shouldn't Hawke zapping darkspawn with lightning bolts from his behind?
It's just my opinion, and I'm still looking forward to the game. But devs, what can you say to assure me that the game has humour?
This is an bioware RPG not a monthy python movie -.-
Zapping darkspawns with lightningbolts from his behind? srsly?
Would you actually consider something like that as good humor?
Actually 8 feet tall and lightning bolts out of his arse is a William Wallace Reference. Nathaniel actually kind of makes it too and you can make the lightning bolts comment back at him.
But He's not telling the tale of William Wallace (or the grey warden) so it wouldn't be fitting to do that in the exagerated parts.
Retour en haut
