Awesome! Those are perfect!

And I guess our theory of him being a temporary head was correct! Does the "gen" stand for generic in the name then? It sounds like a fair amount of work went into making Cullen's face if he needed a place holder... I guess that means he was definitely custom made after all!


Well, most NPCs have a specific head model, like this dude, like Hubert, Sabin, etc. There are lots of *gen* head morphs, presumably meaning general or generic? For human males, for example:
hm_gen_act1.mor
hm_gen_act2.mor
hm_gen_act3.mor
hm_gen_apostate.mor
hm_gen_bloodmage.mor
hm_gen_circle_mage.mor
hm_gen_coterie_archer.mor
hm_gen_coterie_rogue.mor
hm_gen_high_mage.mor
hm_gen_refugee1.mor
hm_gen_slaver.mor
hm_gen_slaver_mage.mor
hm_gen_street_thug.mor
hm_gen_templar.mor
hm_gen_templar_archer.mor
hm_gen_templar_captain.mor
hm_gen_templar_seeker.mor

Notably, there is no human female equivalent of templar captain. Just templar and templar archer.

There is another type called amb, which I assume is ambient. Like, hm_amb_templar.mor and hm_amb_templar_wander.mor

As for Cullen...  hard to say whether his head wasn't ready.... or they just popped in a generic head for showing those screen shots during the DotS making of vid because the Cullen-cat wasn't yet out of the bag...?  Who knows.

Good point, if they filmed the DotS footage before DA2 was out then that would explain it... not that Cullen in DA2 looked that much like his DA:O counterpart, especially since everyone was expecting him to be mad.

Did you get any shots of Cullen getting Falcon punched by any chance?

Man, that scene would be perfect for a video idea I've had for such a long time!

I've always wanted to recreate that concept we had of him being interrogated by Seekers/Templars after Meredith's demise and then subsequently him finding out he is to be thrown in a dungeon/killed so he goes on the run.


Yeah, I first started messing around with the Cassandra swaps because I wanted to see if I could create a similar scene to one I've written in my latest long fic. But, sadly, they just aren't quite close enough.

I tried to get a shot of Cullen getting roughed up, but Hawke/Cassandra's arm is just too fast for my trigger finger.

Y'know, if we could get the right types of pictures we could turn it into a comic, of sorts. Just add in the dialogue parts in a comic book fashion and post the pictures up in order, it would be easy!

What exactly is a falcon punch?  I saw that comment elsewhere...

It's a really over the top punch that looks kinda like the one delivered by Captain Falcon from the SNES game F-Zero, and Super Smash Brothers games, lol.

 Soo, a question for you lovely people:I have DAO for PC (downloaded from steam) and I was wondering how I could access the dialogue clips from the game? I'm sure I can, right?
I don't like messing with games files too much. Hell, the first time I modded everyone became naked or had a yellow DO NOT USE jumpsuit.  :wizard:

Ah, cool. I turned this sound off so all I had was Hawke/Cassandra's facial expressions to go by. My Hawke was trying to be nice... but I chose all the aggressive options so she would look more like Cassandra. LOL

Ah, gotta hit the hay. Maybe more tomorrow.

I've just asked Vieralynn on Tumblr if she still has that sound clip of Cullen's near-death battle cry, I'm so curious to hear how he delivered that line... it maybe be the closest we ever get to hearing it for real in a companion role. *Pouts*

It's difficult for me to describe now I'm not at the computer, but I'll have a look tomorrow and type out the pathway so you'll be able find them. I hope I haven't screwed up my game doing it, I made copies of the files on my desktop and deleted them after, I'll need to check that it didn't delete the originals from the file too.

Vieralynn said she'll post up a couple of the sound clips I couldn't get on Tumblr. I asked for his near-death battle cry: "No, please... it's not my time..." And: "Did someone pay you to come up with that? Because you should give them their money back."

Lol, some people don't like Dragon Age. I've got two dislikes on my Cullen speculation video and two on my wish list video, but none on the others.

I suppose I haven't thrown mine in, either!

1. If one cameo, who is it?
Flemeth.

2. If two, who's the other?
Cassandra

3. CGI trailer, gameplay trailer or both?
Game play trailer, with CGI later, but not at E3.

4. Protagonist name or not?
Possibly protagonist title (e.g. Inquisitor), but not the name.

5. Male PC, female PC, or both?
For first look, probably male PC, but female PC will show up in later marketing.

6. Show one LI? (this would have to seem obvious in the footage, I guess... Kissing? Flirting? That'll be a judgment call)
We'll probably see one, female LI, but it won't be obvious during the early reveals that she's a LI.

7. First trailer is just a teaser, showing little, or meatier, and showing a lot?
Video will be just a teaser.

8. According to reveal verbiage and footage shown, main theme of game is: mage-templar conflict, mysteeerious Inquisition dun-dun-dun, aaaaah veil rip/demon incursion!, or other?
I think initial reveal will focus on very black and white, muahahaha Inquisition, leaving it mysterious but cool. Mage-templar details will show up in later, story-oriented trailers.

9. Who do you think will narrate the trailer, if at all?
If narration, Flemeth.

10. Non-human characters to be shown? (e.g. dwarves, elves, qunari; mabaris and nugs don't count)
They'll probably show them all, to signal "Fantasy RPG!"

11. NUGS GONE WILD IN TRAILER??
Naw... although I do expect nugs to feature at some point. ;)

12. Location most shown will be: Orlais? Ferelden? Someplace unrecognizable?
Orlais.

13. Reveal showcases new specialization or ability, like coolass new spell or dual-wielding warrior?
Mostly regular classes & abilities, but one coolass spell effect will show up ... even if we don't know what spell it is (like the hand ripping thing in the Destiny trailer).

14. Will Flemeth swoop down upon the crowd in the trailer?
No.

15. Will the game still use the same Inquisition logo?
Probably...? I'm torn. I would expect them to work up a unique logo for the game, but it may feature the Inquisition logo we've seen.

 Oooh, I'll play just for the macaroni tiara! If I won, I'd wear it to work and post proof.
1. If one cameo, who is it?Varric

2. If two, who's the other?Janders/Justice

3. CGI trailer, gameplay trailer or both?Both

4. Protagonist name or not?Not

5. Male PC, female PC, or both?Female PC

6. Show one LI? (this would have to seem obvious in the footage, I guess... Kissing? Flirting? That'll be a judgment call)Gah. If they went with a male PC, I would bet that they'd show a sexy female LI, but if they went with a female PC, I would bet that they won't show any LI at all. So based on my answer to number 5.....No LI.

7. First trailer is just a teaser, showing little, or meatier, and showing a lot?Teaser

8. According to reveal verbiage and footage shown, main theme of game is: mage-templar conflict, mysteeerious Inquisition dun-dun-dun, aaaaah veil rip/demon incursion!, or other?Mysteeerious Inquisition dun-dun-dun

9. Who do you think will narrate the trailer, if at all?I'm betting no narration, but it it did have narration, I'd want Stephane Cochrane to do it.

10. Non-human characters to be shown? (e.g. dwarves, elves, qunari; mabaris and nugs don't count)Nope

11. NUGS GONE WILD IN TRAILER??Nope, although I would giggle like an idiot if there were.

12. Location most shown will be: Orlais? Ferelden? Someplace unrecognizable?Orlais

13. Reveal showcases new specialization or ability, like coolass new spell or dual-wielding warrior?Wishful thinking: Warriors that don't suck. Seriously.

14. Will Flemeth swoop down upon the crowd in the trailer?A dragon will be involved. Not sure about it being Flemmeth.

15. Will the game still use the same Inquisition logo? It will have a logo, but it won't be one we've seen before.

Hey guys! So, there's something I've only just realised now. For some reason, Cullen's codex makes no mention of his feelings for my Warden, even though she was a female mage, and by importing that save in it was supposed to. Anyone else having this problem?

Yeah, I have the exact same problem even though he'll still remember my Amell fondly in-game. I think it's a glitch that happened after one of the more recent updates, because I used to be able to get that extra bit of codex and now I can't.

1. If one cameo, who is it?
Cassandra

2. If two, who's the other?
Leliana

3. CGI trailer, gameplay trailer or both?
CGI

4. Protagonist name or not?
No name yet, at least not in the trailer. They may mention it though in interviews.

5. Male PC, female PC, or both?
I’m hoping for both, but my guess is going to have to be Male PC.

6. Show one LI? (this would have to seem obvious in the footage, I guess... Kissing? Flirting? That'll be a judgment call)
Hmm…a common theme, so yea, but probably just a tiny little hint of one.

7. First trailer is just a teaser, showing little, or meatier, and showing a lot?
They said they wanted to show, not tell, so show it all baby!

8. According to reveal verbiage and footage shown, main theme of game is: mage-templar conflict, mysteeerious Inquisition dun-dun-dun, aaaaah veil rip/demon incursion!, or other?
I think it will focus on the overall conflict of Thedas, and the world being brought to the brink of extinction.

9. Who do you think will narrate the trailer, if at all?
Leliana might be cool, but I’ll put my money on a new, unnamed character as narrator.

10. Non-human characters to be shown? (e.g. dwarves, elves, qunari; mabaris and nugs don't count)
There will probably be a good amount of demons, darkspawn….and dragons of course!

11. NUGS GONE WILD IN TRAILER??
My guess is no, but that would be awesome!

12. Location most shown will be: Orlais? Ferelden? Someplace unrecognizable?
Someplace unrecognizable, though I’m sure Orlais will be shown quite a bit. 

13. Reveal showcases new specialization or ability, like coolass new spell or dual-wielding warrior?
I think they will focus more on the environmental aspects, rather than specific classes or abilities. Show off that purty new Frostbite engine!

14. Will Flemeth swoop down upon the crowd in the trailer?
Nah, that’s been done already.

15. Will the game still use the same Inquisition logo? 
It seems to be a common icon with what we’ve seen so far, so yes.
