Sadromeo would you mind telling us how many ABILITY points you get every level? 2? and if you don't get some every level how often do you get them? Every other level? 1 every level except on every other even numbered level at which point you get two? (As you can see I'm guessing)

Which would you recommend more for a rogue bow or dual wield? Which has more useful powers strategically? Does the bow use up ammo? Does dual wield have better killing blow animation (probably) or does the bow have some cool double throat shot kinda stuff?

Was the Human Noble origin fun? Do you think it wasn't as good as they said it would be? Did it not fulfill it's potential? Was the story just flat-out crappy? Or was it awesome? Does it feel like the dialouge is really changed because you're a human noble (sucking up?)?

Is the loot after battles rewarding at all? Is there a wide range of loot? Are poitons (Lyrium/Health) dropped rarely as the reviews have suggested?

Are the party members hard to find? Do you really have to stick your neck out to get them (Sten)? Do you have to have any particular skills to get them like coercion? Did anybody not like you and not want to join your group because you are a Human Noble or because of your actions?

If you could answer any of these questions and post a few more screen shots it would be much appreciated

This is a question I have been dieing to find the answer to.

Is there a toggle to hide helms in this game?

cause some of them look like crude during the 24hr Wardens Quest tourney.

shadow viper,

no reason to play over live except for DLC. sorry for the delay in responding.

Thank you, and not a problem

sadromeo1 I saw a video for the XBox 360 where you can set it to where you do not need to hold down the trigger to pause the game. You just have to click it once. That may make the controls feel less erratic.

Ya know what.. I think Digital Pre-orders should get their copies unlocked early... if physical copies are being played already, why not digital when all we have to do is DL?! Bah!



Thats jealousy talking :/ - I can start pre-loading tomorrow but can't play till tuesday.



And OP - could you put any screenshots that give away store elements within spoiler tags?

[sadromeo1]

edgew



It is not me playing on justin tv. I like the feed though.



carlosjuero



Will definitely add the spoiler tags to any story element screenshots. Sorry about that.



Seladen



I am not playing right now but when I play again later, I will update

I was thinking about switching that like you said, to kind of match the way I would play on the PC, but actually you get used to it and it isn't a bad thing. But who knows, if the battles get more hectic I may switch.

So far, I have always received 3 ability points per level up. That is from 1 to 3 of course. I am halfway still to 4 so I will see then.

I have only seen one "death blow" animation for dual wield and it is awesome. I have not seen any yet with archery but I like the skills associated with it. Pinning shot, critical shot and slayer are pretty good. Plus you can use melee archer so you will not be interrupted if fighting at close range with a bow.

The human noble story was very good. Actually, due to playing so many RPGs it does have a little predictability but so far so good. Really, I have barely started and still need to get into the meat of the game. The dialogue trees are very interesting and have a wide set of emotions and dispositions depending on who you are talking to. Having the ability to persuade or use cunning to have extra dialogue options is fun too. And like I said before, the lip syncing is so perfect it really brings you into the story.

The loot so far has been okay to good. I do not want to list spoilers (sorry about the screenshots with spoilers) but there is good loot if you can get it near the beginning of the game.  One thing I did notice is that you can receive bonuses for set items.  I didn't know these were included in DAO.

Potions have dropped but not that often. I found that I got most of my potions from chests and sacks that were lying about in the castle.

As far as party members go, I have not had any opportunities to recruit. Most of the party members I have had so far, have been automatically given to me as part of the story. I definitely need to progress more to have a better answer. Sorry.

Will definitely post more screenshots but I fear that the more I play, the more screenshots could contain spoilers so I will try to pick out ones that do not.

So is your character getting enough points to dual wield and be a good archer? I take it you're scrimping somewhere then.

[sadromeo1]

OldhamA



I haven't really put any points in dual wield. I am going mainly archer.

[OldhamA]

Oh ok. How are you finding it? Does it feel a little underpowered? That's my biggest fear for any archer character I create.

[sadromeo1]

OldhamA

Initially I thought it was but adding Pinning shot and Critical shot help. It does help to have melee party members too.

YOU LUCKY SOB!!!

I hear you.  Watching live feeds knowing you can't get the game until the 5th is torture.

But seeing the game in action and reading the comments of the OP about the lip-syncing and storyline lessens the blow. Can't wait to get it.

My computer is going to burst into flames after I finish installing the game on the third. That will be my luck, I just know it.

[JerenKatarn]

How useful did u find Coercion in persuading NPCs for whatever cause you what?

And how much do you have to advance the skill to get most or all extra dialogues during the early game so far?



Same type of question goes to Deft Hands too.



Thanks for answering if u do in advance.

[sadromeo1]

JerenKatarn

There are 4 levels of coercion. However, I am not using the skill so I cannot help you there. They state that coercion is an intimidation tactic versus cunning (which I use) which is a persuasive tactic in dialogue. I prefer to use cunning instead of coercion for the character I am currently playing.

[sadromeo1]

Seladan

No option to hide helms.

[pewbz]

The way I understood it, it's:

18 cunning+Coercion gives you more persuasion dialog options while 18 strength+Coercion gives you the intimidation options.



You can guess where I pulled the number 18 out from, but otherwise this should prove true. However, I'm awake for what feels like several hundred hours so I might be wrong.
