I'm confident that they at the very least have put a lot of work and love into it. What the result is.. we'll see soon enough


Precisely. it's fun to speculate but, realistically, we probably aren't going to get much. There will probably some scenery shots, some combat shots and an ominous monologue, Flemeth's for DA2, that'll be vague and only hint at what's going on. "Rise to power" was Hawke's tagline. We may see a version of the default protag... This is the limit of what I expect to see. I know it doesn't sound like much but the devs have to keep a lot of secrets for now and still "sell" the game, even as they want to show what they've been working on. They've been working hard and investing in it and probably wish they could show more and may even have been rushing to finish a little bit of content so it's exhibition ready.

Were I in their shoes, I'd be uneasy about what's coming because the fans seem to have all these high hopes and nothing less than meeting them will appease them. Yet they're doing their best to prove to us that it's awesome within the limits of disclosure that their bosses say they can use. I'm ostensibly not trying to think too hard about what may be revealed because I know they're not going to share any really juicy tidbits at this point. If I'm wrong about this, then that'll be awesome!  :D


Exactly, they said they wouldn't show us anything until they were ready. The fact that they're showing us something at E3 should be taken as a positive sign that they are finally ready to begin showing us what they've made, E3 is likely gonna be a little taster of that.

Hell, Cameron already said that from E3 onwards they'd begin to gradually show us what they've got so why people are freaking out and looking for conspiracy theories is beyond me. People are freaking out thinking it won't be ready for Fall, but so what if it isn't? Surely a longer development time is a good thing! Early 2014 isn't that far off now anyway.

OH! I just remembered last nights Dragon Age related dream that I had!

I dreamt that I was at a folk festival in the town were I live, but I had to dress up as Isabela and was made to dance the tango with some random dude, LOL!

@neonmoth: there's a few things. Thursday is supposed to bring a preview of the E3 games from EA. Friday is Bioware's DA Sprint Review Day. Monday is EA press conf at E3, which we have learned will def feature DA3.

So we should learn more soon!


I never understood what a Sprint Review really is and where exactly it's featured...

Sounds like the devs are getting pre-E3 nerves. I guess they must be a little worried at the reception the game will get.


I think that's a good thing. I'm sure they are very confident of their product, but it's gonna be the first time it's out there. 
The reception of DA2 was good, wasn't it? It had great reviews.


I dunno, I wasn't around for the DA2 preview.


Yes it was. People Freaked when that little tease of Hawke came out. Then when they did the full trailer, with Flemeth talking at the beginning ppl flipped out. There was a massive amount of applause. Then right after E3, the trailer was on the TV. I remember my husband would call me into the room everytime it came on lol

Sprint review takes place on Twitter. Basically it's just the devs having a big meeting every month to showcase to each other the progress they've made on the game so far, as the meeting goes on the devs make obscure tweets about the features they're seeing on the screen in front of them.

It's supposed to tease us and keep us speculating about the game.

If there is just a CGI trailer again then I'd love to the female protagonist version instead, especially if they decide to add a companion into it which would hopefully be a male one this time (Cullen), to switch it up a bit.

Mind you, even if Cullen did feature in it, it still wouldn't mean that he was a companion/LI for sure.

Also seems now that the "preview" EA was talking about in their tweets was a typo (!), and it's actually the preview of games during the EA press conference on Monday.

Yeah, this Friday. I doubt we'll get anything substantial, but if we're super lucky they might tweet a teaser picture of something from the E3 reveal.

Hmm, you know... that's true. But really, do you think they'd show an NPC over a companion?? I guess maybe if they're framing the story... Of course, the Arishok from the Destiny trailer wasn't a companion. LOL Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Even if they just kind of give hints of the companions. Like you get a quick vid of someone talking, CGI trailer, while they show the tattered remains of the companions uniforms. Like flashes of them. You see Casandras armor, a grey wardens shield, and maybe a templar Insignia. Then the protagonist steps in and the camera zooms in over his/her shoulder. Then boom.

Presumably. Here's what the EA twitter says now:

LOL I dunno... if I were the marketing folks... I wouldn't want to ****** folks off by misleading them about a companion. Especially one that... volatile. But then... they're probably bolder than I!

That would be cool. Man, waiting for this reveal is torture even though the week seems to be trotting along at a decent pace.

Well, it wasn't a rumor. It was a typo in several tweets straight from EA. They probably deleted them when they saw the error. Dumbasses.

I doubt they'd show us Cullen anyway. The fact that GE accidentally let slip about his inclusion in the first place automatically dooms us all to waiting the longest to find out whether he is or not. =]

Or you know...they'll could be totally evil...because lets just say Cullen is a companion. There's ppl waiting for him to be in it, and then there's ppl wanting to go AHA no he isn't!

I could totally see them just showing us a CGI trailer of the Protagonist standing on a hill looking over mass Chaos. Close up to the hooded figure, he/she smiles. Boom, DA3 title.

LOL, well the concept art from the lore book and the survey leak does show the protagonist wearing a hooded cape, so I totally wouldn't be surprised if the hood shadowed out all of his/her features aside from the lower jaw and mouth. It would look totally badass though!

That or all the companions will be in the trailer but in such a quick flash that you can't tell what they look like. :lol:
