Why doesn't someone twit one of the dev's for some more specific answers? You know they have to know better.
Already done.

I vaguely remember someone mentioning that Cameron Lee meant to twit some info nearing the conference but I can be totally mistaken. I guess there might be some changes in the schedule, so I hope someone will give us heads on. I'm going to stalk twitter thread :]Avejajed wrote...

I just had a horrifying thought. What if they pull a Joker on us, and Cullen wants to be with the protag but can't, because who else would tend the petrified corpse statue of Merideth so lovingly as he. Patiently waiting the day when she could come back to him.....Because you know they'd do that right?
I don't know about anyone else, but I wanted to give Joker the most renegade punches of renegade punches in ME3. I liked him in ME and adored him in ME2, but in ME3 he suddenly turned into the most sexist little douchebag. I discouraged the relationship just for how Joker was outright objectifying EDI. Needs her in his view to work better my arse. BC
...And I am so late on this. I overlooked there being other pages. Woops. orz

... Mind you, Meredith would make a lovely garden decoration. Maybe Cullen decided to take her with him to pretty up his new digs.
Thanks for the links. With the pre-event excitement and the analysis afterwards do you think the Cullen thread will hit page 2000 by tonight?!

No matter what we show, for some fans it'll be like we went to their house and deleted their fanfiction. #DA3 #beentothisrodeobefore

It's probably wishful thinking, but this totally made me think of Cullen (then again, what doesnt these days) I just remember DG being very specific about his worries about including Cullen, and going against all the many many fanfics out there that have a designated personality type and backstory already established for him.
I say wishful, because that would mean that Cullen is indeed in the game, and that we're going to see him today! Even if they take a totally different route w/ him, I would absolutely love to see what his story turns out to be.

As someone who didn't think Ander's was out of character in DAII after listening to all of his banter with Justice in Awakening, seeing how he gave you disapproval points for daring to do chanrty board missions, and hearing some of his banters with Nathaniel... I think the devs know how to handle their characters, and I haven't been dissapointed by one yet. So I doubt I'll be disappointed this time. I fell in love with the snippets of Cullen's personality we've seen so far, so I'm sure I'll love him in DA:I no matter what more is revealed/how they've built onto him.
(If he's a companion. I need to remember that IF.)
Whether or not he'll make me angry at times has yet to be seen, but hey, all the DA II characters except Varric make me angery at times. Which is why I need a Pimp Hand Button. At least Hawke gets to verbally pimp hand them at times.

I'm not sure he understands what fanfiction is... I've been involved in fandoms where the characters died or, more commonly, were canonically romantically involved with other characters; nevertheless, people still wrote them with other characters. No fanfic writer believes her fanfic is canon... that is the whole POINT of fanfic. You make up your own version of things.
No, this only makes me think they've done something that goes against common (universal throughout the entire fandom) belief. In other words... Hawke is dead, or an important LI like Isabela has left Hawke and is back to adventuring.
Alternatively, it could mean that the writers created their own canon: i.e. Alistair is king in everyone's games.
Something like "Cullen retires from the templars and marries a peasant girl" is not going to make fanfic writers mad. Beleive me, Mr. Gaider, people will still write fanfic about Hawke and Cullen, or the Inquisitor and Cullen, or whomever. In fact, they are doing it now, silly.

Anyway the DG quote could be about a lot of things ,everybody has a strong opinion about mages, templars , the chantry , all the LIs , their Hawke and Warden , the OGB situation etc...
They have to ****** some people off...
I think Morrigan will be back , and some people will scream in horror.
I hate the OGB for example ...I may faint in horror if he become something very special ,but well we'll see.

I hope it'll be more than a teaser trailer. I hope it'll have gameplay and not just CGI. I hope they use an actual song with it because I love when trailers use radio music. UGH. I'm so excited! Nobody has responded on twitter yet about the time.
I just plan to be home around 2pm CT and have Spike TV on. And Skype fired up and ready to go

I hate that storyline, too. That was the problem with DA:O; if you didn't become attached to a character (Morrigan) the story still made them very, very significant. (Thank god I like Alistair.)
I really could care less about Morrigan's dumb baby lol

Or he's just had some bad experiences. I tend to stay away from 'fandoms' a lot anymore, because there's some pretty crazy and desperate fans out there that make the whole experience far from fun, and who DO rage if their fanfiction and headcanons are not realised. A lot of Avatar: TLAB and Zuko/Katara fans blew a GASKET when Katara ended up with Aang in canon and went on this huge crusade against Aang/Katara fans, at least over at DeviantArt. There' was reports of any Aang and Katara artwork en mass for 'inappropriate content', nevermind the art was fine.
...And the BSN is already a bit of a cess pit, so I can certainly understand where he's coming from.

*nods* Spike coverage starts here around 12:30 EST. So I'll just figure it out from there. I don't know about Skype. When twenty people all try to skype together it turns into a cluster**** of who can talk louder than who.

Ah, I see! I suppose us BL fans are simply more used to disappointment, so we handle it better

*Nods* I actually thought it was a figure of speech. There are plenty of fans (me included) who hold many characters dear and/or strongly support particular plots, hence some choices that developers have made might be surprising and difficult to accept. That's probably why he compared it to fanfiction authors losing their creations. At least that's how I understood his comment. I'm expecting some jawdropping twists but it could be that he is just trying to prepare himself for potential outburst.Dirgegun wrote...
