oh did they? Huh.. well I wonder why they had GE delete his then?
It probably has to do with the time of the tweet. Confirming that Cullen was in DAI so long before release (it was more or less a year before the supposed 2013 release, right?) means that Cullen has an important role, as either a companion or major NPC, since they woudn't bother doing VA for a minor character that long before release. Steve tweeted after the game was formally announced, shown and closer to release, so it woudn't be a big problem.
Y'know, seeing how early GE tweet he was in the booth, in comparison to SV who's only just in there now seems rather telling, doesn't it.
I guess we can safely assume that Cullen won't just be a cameo or piddly minor NPC.
Agreed.
On Alistair, I'n glad he's back. I really hope I can meet both him and Anora as Fereldan rulers
