I was playing DA2 with noise canceling headphones on at 2am -- as one does -- and I woke my roommate up by _yelping like a five year old girl_ at that bloody giant spider. The biggest one, the one whose body doesn't ever vanish even if you leave the zone and come back.

Yeah, thanks for that, Bioware.

I take it you guys won't play Earth Defense Force 2?

Those are common enemies and there's even bigger boss variants.

A hundred of those things attacking the characters would be extremely creepy, unlike the cuddly big spiders.

Oh thats an awesome idea, the Mama spider could have an ability like the insect swarm spell from DA:O but instead it would tons of little spiders crawling over the character doing nature damage. BRILLIANT!

 It would be hard to render with their current tech, but we all know (and hope) the next DA will have a new engine.

 Perhaps there could be different kinds as well. Big spiders don't scare we, it's the fast moving ones with large fangs. Like the pictures that have been posted. Sure, they're big, but tiny in comparison to DA II spiders. I still like the giant spiders though, I just don't get the creeps.

I hate spiders, I don't mind them so much anymore, but i was totally freaked out from them a few years ago, probably had something to do with blood poisoning after being bitten by a brown recluse, yeah that was fun. But spiders man, god i hate them and their EYES..ffs the eyes...and the legs. *SHIVER*

I hate spiders D:

I still jump every time they appear in DA2 and have to make sure they die as quickly as possible :x

[Lafiniel]

i Dislike spiders with a passion and yes i did a querky jump the time i went down in a cave and suddenly they popped out from the err between space ceeling and floor.
and yes i know the spiders are there but i still do a mini jump when they appear

[SpiderDeathy]

...spiders are cute...
But that annoying stun combo they do in game is annoying. >_<

I'm an arachnophobe, but for the most part was able to handle the spiders in DA:O because they were few and far between and typically just in the Dalish Forests.

Even now, I could tolerate them though it does creep me out when I see one of them drop down from the ceiling right in front of the screen (making it feel like it is touching my face).

But now Bioware introduced these monstrous spiders, which for whatever reason prefer targetting me and I end up with shots of it coming directy towards the screen, trapping me in a relentless combo as my character staggers until they die.

Thanks a lot Bioware, I think I'm going to need a therapist. Any other arachnophobes here bothered by these monstrous spiders?

I find mens size 12 to 13 shoes take care of any spider problems I might have.

O.M.G.!!!

that things huge.


as for spiders in this game.

the ones that i really dont like are the smaller wasp spiders etc. find them creepy, but the monstrous spiders, and spider queen look a bit absurd really because they are so bulbous.

[Space Toaster]

Video game spiders don't bother me.

The way they drop from the ceiling in Dragon Age
startles me every now and then though.

[gotthammer]

It's not that I'm afraid of spiders, it's just that one encounter (and I was expecting that particular spot to trigger one. I think it was outdoors, near some rubble) suddenly just 'popped in': the speakers suddenly went loud w/ the sound of combat music plus the 'entry sound' the spiders (or most encounters?) made...made my heart skip a bit, methinks. 
Hmm, come to think of it, I think there was another encounter (not spiders), when the music/sounds suddenly picked up.
Heh, I don't recall being as surprised as I was w/ those encounters than I was with most of the entire FEAR 2 game (except that one bit *spoiler* near the swimming pool...I think it was a bug, but I couldn't move...then when I looked down, there was Alma. I think she was supposed to appear behind me, which I kinda was expecting...but not 'below' me.  /*spoiler*)

*grumble* stupid cheap shots... *grumble*

When I first saw the monstrous spider my thought was...

"Well, they ditched a LoTR style story... but hey, I get to kill Shelob!"

I like the monstrous spider. I've been waiting to kill a spider THAT size forever.

[wicked_being]

When that monstrous spider came down from the ceiling, coincidentally, I had my radial menu up so it paused the combat. But you know how cameras are when the object is very near a wall...it focused on the spider eyes like it was looking at me I almost knocked over my TV (had my headphones hooked up).

[Sauronvoldemort]

Every RPG needs giant spiders!

[Mikazukinoyaiba2]

I'm glad to see there were a lot more people who felt the same way I did.

Also thanks for posting links to the arcahnophobe mod, unfortunately I play on the Xbox 360 so yeah... not an option for me.

If Bioware did feel to make a toggle option in their future games that would be great actually, I understand the point of spider monsters is to scare the opponent but I just can't tolerate spiders that large and that move so realistically.

[StingingVelvet]

Spiders and snakes I am fine with but I have an intense fear of roaches... giant roaches would seriously freak me out to the point I might not be able to play the game.

The Fallout 3 ones weren't too bad as they were still relatively small.

[Officer Nice]

My friend is afraid of spiders and I can't wait till he gets it

[phoenixds24]

I'm not sure if I'd call myself an arachnophobe, but spiders creep the heck out of me, and I could barely look at the screen when those suckers appeared. The 'normal' sized spiders I can tolerate, but I simply hate those monstrous spiders.

[Beerfish]

At least they don't seem to have the overwhelm/maul attack in DA2. The 1st real big guy was a surprise that is for sure. I went blundering into the passage and see some spiders.....bah no problem then I look right above my mages head and it's "uh-oh".

[Avissel]

The Super Giant Queen Spiders are the things of my Nightmares.

[SidNitzerglobin]

Recovering arachnophobe here and I actually really dig giant spiders in RPGs. The ones in DA II don't seem to do the overwhelm move quite as much though so far, which I find to be the most terrifying aspects of fighting them.

LOL you beat me to it.

No Overwhelm or apparent status effects make the DA II spiders kinda just another generic mob to me.

[Mossa_missa]

I dont have arachnophobe but everytime they appear, those big spiders I yump alitle. The Woghaboogawoogha!! effect strikes me.

I think a thousand tiny spiders engulfing the players would be far more disturbing.

I agree completely! Id love tribute to the Mummy movies. The parts where the little scarabs swarm and rip the people to pieces. That would make the DA world a little bit creepier for me

Awww... Spiders are cute

Then again I have several mexican redknees IRL.
