I know, that armor is really cool (for lack of better words) and looks like it's easily..removeable. And the best part is, he still has his skirt! Well nearly, lol. But the furry scarf..not exactly my taste. They did say you could change certain things on their armor so hopefully that thing can go. Fur is just...yucky to me.

And the reason they have not deleted it because they know its fake and they are getting a good laugh at us.

Yeah that's more likely, mind you if it's in a survey then it's not really a leak lol, plus it's gone viral so even if they took it down we all have copies of it.

I just can't wait for them to release the concept art they showed at Gamescon.

I can't believe no ones given us any descriptions of them yet. I wonder if anyone has on the German board?

I looked on the internet to see if anyone was talking about it but to find nothing. Quite sad, but they should tell us soon  right? It's unfair to those of us here who can't afford grand trips.

If Cullen is a companion/LI then I wonder what finally convinced them to let us have him? I like to think this thread and the sudden surge in Cullen love on places like Tumblr etc helped sway them lol.

I'm hoping they'll put the pictures up in their blog around the time that they ask us the question of the month.

So all we can do is proceed waiting and speculating. Oh well, I just keep conjuring up how it'll be with Cullen, his story and such. Perhaps we'll even find out his last name (if he has one).

The question of the month will be: "What should the name of the DA 3 brothel be?"
My vote will be for The Clam with a sign out front that reads "Liquor in the front / Poker in the rear. Lol

When is Gamescom over? I think I've gone mad from the heat.

More specifically "The Bearded Clam" just to make it obvious!

Come to think of it, isn't the question of the month due this week? Usually they post it a week or two before the end of the month, except last months one came super later.

It'll probably be something crap if there is one this time. After all, they've got all the script and stuff done now so they can't ask about companions, characters, cameos or storylines lol.

Urgh, that would cause an uproar! I've no idea what they could ask us this month, unless they do ask us about companion's just to see what our reaction would be compared to the companions they've chosen.

True, but it'll just us a chance to have one last go at reintegrating to them that we want Cullen as an LI lol.

I don't know if they'd ask about companions since it 's such a wide berth for opinions. It would be like asking what your favorite color or what is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

This is interesting, those pictures that were leaked today is from a second survey on a different survey site in Germany. The description of the game from this one translates as the following:

""A portal between the worlds unleashes hords of demons in the land, civil wars rip apart nations and the corruption is limitless. Someone is behind the shadows, drawing the threads which destroy the world. Time has come for the Inquisition.

Take the Inquisitor's cloak and lead the only force able of bringing light into the darkness. Choose the direct method and gather your armies, send spies into the shadows or engage in a political war, make friends and use your connections indirectly: it is up to you how you lead the inquisition. But you'll have to take lead of it from the beginning. Make your player a rogue, warrior or mage and set up your crew from up to ten (!) complex companions to lead them against those who attack you by systematically spying on, revealing and destroying them."

If it's real and we will get 10 companion's to pick and choose from then that's plenty of room of Cullen to included.


A ripping portal (veil?) that unleashes demons reminds me of a discussion on Tumblr long ago about how mages and magic might be destroying thedas, and how that might be part of the DA3 plotline. I'll try to find the discussion but until I do, the reasoning went like this:

Whenever our Warden or Hawke visits or hears of places where the veil is very thin, that place has a history of intense magic being practiced there. So, the more magic that is performed, the more the veil thins, and the more toxic, dangerous, or "polluted" that place becomes. Eventually, if the veil becomes too thin, demons and other fade spirits can drift into the normal world and create chaos.

I wonder if DG+crew have expanded on this idea to create a reason for the inquisitor PC to do his/her thing?

As for the other news, much agreement! With 10 companions, that leaves plenty of room for Cullen to be one of the 3 to 4 warriors. Given things that DG has said in the past about Cullen being a voice of reason while the mage-templar war rages on, I would be surprised if Cullen isn't a companion and I've felt that way long before all of these leaks have come out.

Here's the original quote from DG from a con long ago (back in January, maybe??)

“I like Cullen. […] And there are things I think can be done with Cullen. I like the idea that he has confronted probably the worst that the mages have, he’s encountered the worst of what mages can do. Yet he hasn’t done what some Templars have done, like Meredith, or—I keep wanting to call him Knight Divine—Lord Seeker Lambert in the novel, how they have reacted is to become very anti-mage and very judgmental and to paint all the mages in the same basic plot, a few bad apples spoils the bunch. Cullen to me represents another side of Templars which is a side that we need to keep active. Not all Templars are these heartless bastards who would happily torture mages, that’s not true, there are Templars who are good people. I think Cullen is a good man who recognizes that there are dangerous in magic, dangers that have to be dealt with, but he doesn’t lack for compassion and doesn’t try to say “Well, let’s take the hard approach and kill everybody and let the Maker sort them out.”

Saw the Cullen concept art, have to saw I'm enjoying the outfit. He'd be guaranteed in my team if he does become a companion, the story of a Templar questioning his loyalties to the order but having seen the worst of mages is too good to pass up.


Agree, Dave! The fact that he's eye candy is just a bonus for us man-lovers.

Cullen deserves to be in the game because even without a romance, he's got a serious compelling story with room for character development, and he has a very fitting place in the world of DAIII. I'm excited about the prospect of having him around even when I'm taking another romance option.

Like my husband said, "He is all that is MAN. RAH!"  Image IPB

Yeah, vieralynn, it sounds like an article R2's Muse pointed out awhile ago that inspired the start of this thread:

http://social.biowar.../index/13367165

But it's been dead for awhile now. Maybe I should insert that new info and try to get it revived?

What's this Cullen concept art I'm hearing (reading) about? Where is it? I can't find it.

Or was it something someone drew and not BW?

Good point. Hm, bugger knows what they'll come up with this time then lol. They must be running out of questions by now, even the Sprint Review tweets have been dwindling since there can't be much left to discuss that's hint worthy. 

I was reading about VO actors in games and in what order the games are usually made and apparently the voiced dialogue is added in last, so they must be pretty close to getting the basic game done (despite Hepler claiming they'd only just come out of pre-produxtion), if that's true then surely they have something to show us now?

I'd love a new game but would be very skeptical if they pulled one out of the bag so soon... I am really curious as to what is happening.
