I just had a horrible thought. DG mentioned in his Tumblr post about love interests, that he liked different styles of romance, such as a companion who just isn't interested in your protagonist despite you flirting.

What if we flirt with Cullen, only to be told that his heart belongs to another, either the female Amell/Surana (if you played as them) or some random unknown person (if not).

I'd be sooo pissed off! I mean, sh!t it's been like 13 or 14 years man, time to move on LOL!


If Cullen was still in love with Amell/Surana, I think I would be fine with that, because my Amell is on her own at the end of DAO and I always saw her eventually ending up with Cullen (Surana ended up with Alistair).   I am kind of hoping that the warden will appear in DA3.  In fact my dream would be that the Warden is the protagonist but that's not going to happen :(

If it was anybody else, I would be peeved and probably chuck my controller across the room!

Ugh, yeah, this. I'd hate for them to keep him living in the past like that.

I'm going to blow a gasket if they take it in that direction. Or if it's unrequited like Aveline. Ugh, or if it's one of those "So who's your friend?" *schmarmy eyebrow wiggle* Posted Image

Pffft I think that would be pretty unrealistic and be a pretty naive and childish interpretation of love, which is a mistake I don't see a great writer like DG making. So no worries. About the Amell/Surana thing, anyway.

We can always hope... altho, I still wouldn't put it past him to add in a creepy hairbrushing reference. Which, of course, would make me fall out of my chair laughing.

So we didn't talk about this last night regarding this red lyrium pic from the new World of Thedas, but doesn't that look like a templar??

MMG - childish and naive, perhaps. I will challenge "unrealistic" however, as I've had all 3 of these crazy scenarios happen to me in RL. LOL

Hairbrushing references are welcome.

That red lyrium pic is making my brain bubble with possibilities! I wonder if that is a Templar.... maybe he's down there investigating it's properties in order to figure out what about it sent Meredith over the edge?

I know that DA3 is taking place after Asunder, which is 9-10 years from DAO. Is it taking place 3-4 years after that? I wasn't sure.

The figure in the picture does look a bit like a templar, with the long skirt and carrying a sword and shield. As the figure is so small, it is very hard to tell. Just trying to think why a templar would be in the Deep Roads, unless it is part of DA3.

Looking at the World of Thedas book, I have found that you can search for a topic/word in the 'Look Inside' function. You can bring up a box that says 'Search inside this book'. Quite handy really as it brings up a list of pages that has that topic/word, including the ones not on display.

This would be a cool quest. From the text, it sounds like red lyrium was "first" discovered by Hawke and is now "known" to make everybody crazy, not just mages or templars or even humans. I wonder what else is "known."

Could it be like the Nathaniel quest...?

"What are we doing in this creepy, red lyrium filled cave? Wait... is that?  Cullen?? What are you doing down here?"

"I've been sent by the Divine to investigate this substance after what happened with Meredith... What is that sound?"

*cue bow chicka bow bow porn music*

Protagonist blushes. "W-what music?"

Yes, all they've said is after Asunder, so it could start 9:40 and on. My bet is it will pick up 9:40 or a year or two later. But who knows.

Agree that it's probably DA3, but it could be any time after red lyrium is discovered in 9:31. I'm betting it's a response to Meredith going cuckoo.

Yeah, but it will only show you the pages currently available in your preview. Sadly, a search for cullen yielded 0 hits. :(

So Sera is the one that swears alot? There's one that swears alot? giggle. I hope so.

I love my "homegirl" companions. In DA2 Isabel was my homegirl. Aveline like a big sister. Merrill like a lil sis.

Morrigan was like a homegirl. leli, too. Just diff types. There times when I like my ride or die friend. And other times I wanna go shopping.

I hope Sera swears alot. Lol!

The imge in background...the hed looks like one of those square Templar helmets to me. But..you know.


Oh! the tweet from Cori May! I think Cullen plays an important role. Important enuf to go after by conquest. Lol. And mybe they just decided to throw us a bit of a bone?

Either way, it corresponds to Lola's theory. And I also like that Cori May is working on Cullen cuz she Wants to. Not just assigned.

Is it sfe walking thru red lyrium caverns? Did we do that in DA2? Can't remeber wht kinda lyrium the profane were feeding on.

Maybe if you just don't...touch it. It won't affect you. Or touch it for too long?

I dunno if it's Sera/the Elf that swears a lot, but I know one of the females do lol, might not be one of the companions though.

I know Cullen has a few fans within the BioWare DA team, so that's always a good sign!

Hmm, I'd sy the Cullen thread has got more info going than the rest of DA3 forum combined.

Would it be wrong to post some of these images on the Twitter thread?

Part of me wants to, yet part of me wants to keep it for myself. *cackle*

Yeah, we do lol. We find stuff that we don't always share with the others if they're being rude in the main forum. 

Feel free to post them in the Twitter thread, it's friendly enough in there.

Well, taking into account the description of Ser in the survey, I'd say it's *shakes magic 8 ball* --highly probable. I hope Sera is a companion.

I betcha she'd make Cullen blush. Or at least get twitterpated. Ha!

And she seems to have good underworld connections. Which I  think is always handy

The more we discover about DA3 through various hints, concept art etc, the more we discover things from that survey leak being true.

Yes. Maybe that's why it's been so quiet cuz they figure enuf info has been spilled already?

I'm still trying to remain...distant, but it's getting harder to do that.

I recall them saying that originally they weren't going to say anything until around May 2013, but what with the survey leaks, Greg Ellis' little out burst and the stupid rumour that Ray Muzyka 'n' Greg Zeschuk left BioWare due to them not liking the direction the company was going in, so they decided to release the official DA3 announce early to quash things since there was no denying it was being made.

I'm a little reluctant to post them in the main forums since I'm not strictly convinced what I did was legal. It's incidental use... and yes, posting them here is posting them in public... but I dunno, no one comes here, whereas parading them about seems... imprudent.

Yeah I dunno. On the other hand I've seen some of the other, non-newsarama pic posted on Facebook. So I'm not the only one... heh, just the only one with some of these images since I still haven't seen them anywhere else. Anyway, I'm torn. Been thinking about putting them on tumblr, but don't want to get busted. Folks post stuff that doesn't belong to them there all the time, with attribution. So maybe it's fine..?  Plus, it's free advertising for them. /muddled
