Was it suggested in that survey that those concept art pictures of possible companions were for potential DLC then?

 :blink: Shale was a DLC companion?? I didn't know that. I bought the game when it had all the DLC and Awakening included so I didn't realize. Shale definitely didn't seem like an added on like Sebastian. Javik in ME3 wasn't so bad either. Oh my poor Sebastian!! It hurts to think of what could have been with him :(

I think if (when ;)) Cullen becomes a companion, he wouldn't be DLC. He seems to much of a known and important character.

Well I have a question...it's off topic but since it's quiet ...

In September , if everything alright , i'll be working on a Dragon age french site.Nothing official , it's a french association vaguely related to EA that promotes their games and get goodies in return.(I'm not so happy to promote EA for free , I don't like them , but hey it's DA , so I couldn't resist to beg to be part of the project.)

Anyway , I was wondering what type of information people would like to find about DA.
(Besides things about Cullen!)
I know i like lore and i probably gonna write about it ....but just thinking about the tons of lore about DA and how to organise it so it's easy for people to find information just give me an headache.

I like wiki , and the french wikia about DA sucks ...maybe i will try that.

And what makes you interested in a site ...because it looks pretty?because of x content ?
Does publishing fan artwork or fanfiction seems like a plus?
What do you think could made you feel involved?...etc...

I just like a general idea of what da fans look for , because it seems there's not a lot of fansite out there , and it's even worst in france.

And as a Da fan , i find everything I need in BSN and wikia ....I don't know how other fan feel about it.



Fan artwork def. nice to see, any info on related books/comics- wiki like info  is always good.  Any info on the game its character and storyline are good.  and yes looks are important too.     just my thots   good luck to you.

No but i think the companion that were described might be .It wasn't suggested in the survey ..nothing about dlc.

But DLC companions have to be attractive and not too related to the plot.
A mercenary Kossith /an elf rogue / a Tevinter mage /Cole .

Well it's mostly because of the mercenary , like what's is name ME2 crazy guy?...and he's a Kossith , people would pay for a Kossith companion I guess.

Edit : thanks adurnal for the answer , fanfictions and fanart are not very popular in france.I think it's a shame ...the community come up with great things. :)

So silly Cullen question:   What kind of foods do you think he likes?   Do you think hes more of a meat and potatos kinda guy or he eats all his veggies?   More importantly, does he like chocolate?

Oh, I imagine him having a bit of a sweet tooth, or not having had many sweets so they are a very nice treat for him.

I would imagine a lot of red meat for protein to help build his muscles and strength for combat purposes. I doubt the Chantry go wild with spending money on feeding them expensive foods, so it'll probably be your basic meat and potatoes and other simplistic foods like stews and stuff. I guess if Cullen and the other Templars wanna try some fancy foods then they'd use their wages to buy Orlesian pastries and stuff at the market stalls.

I like to think that he buried himself in his work and Templar training/exercise lol.

as far as Cullen being a DLC; i'll take him however i can get him *sounds a little desparate* but i would prefer him to be there from the begining. But if its done right, i guess it would be ok, so long as hes a LI. Sebatians wasn't bad but i did not like Tallis's dlc. It just felt outta place and not really flowed with the game. Then again, could be just b/c i don't like Tallis.

I always imagine that templars suffer about as much as mages do (when it comes to small freedoms) and maybe thats why they hate them so much.

Y'know, I've never really given it much thought before, but you're probably right to an extent. I'd say Cullen appears to restrict himself more than most though, it makes me wonder if he's punishing himself, maybe for once being in love with a mage, or because he feels survivors guilt for not being more vigilant back in the Ferelden circle tower.

I think he is punishing himself. Being in love with a mage only to see a bunch of them kill his friends probably makes him feel very guilty. And that restricting himself will somehow...er..fix things, or make up for them.

I kinda figure that he doesn't allow himself to be distracted from his job, perhaps considering things like a relationship, time off, etc as a temptation that could make his resolve waver. I kinda feel like he worries that if he drops his guard for 5 minutes them something bad could happen.

 Cullen probably whipped himself every night to repent to the Maker.
And speaking of talking about over the top complaining Bioware fans not long ago, I'm not sure if Bioware or Blizzard have it the worst when it comes to fans calling out for blood to be spilt. They both do the "I'M NEVER GOING TO BUY ONE OF YOUR PRODUCTS AGAIN" regime too to boot. :o

I'm not gonna lie, I kicked off about the first endings to ME3 and considered not bothering with Bioware games anymore, but then I calmed down and realised I was being a bit of a douche lol.

It seems like templars life isn't fun.
Carver as a templar is pretty miserable.
They live amonst mages everyday , and can't befriend them.They may have to kill them.
And i mean kill woman / teen etc...
That's not a job easy for anyone normal .I mean if you're vicious it's cool.
If you''ve got a bit of empathy , it's a cruel job.

True. Maybe that's why they visit the Blooming Rose so much in Kirkwall? It's their one small luxury LOL!

Blizzard, probably, although the fans saying they're going to quit if DA3 isn't DA:O2 do seem to be rather numerous. I don't get the hate over Diablo 3. OK, a few things are a little different, but a lot of things really are better, and the new patch makes it better still.

@LolaLei: I'm thinking part of Cullen's torment may still be survivor guilt. Even if the Warden was male or a non-mage, he's still going to have issues, and that particular type of PTSD is really tough to overcome. How do you obtain forgiveness from the dead?

The blooming rose and Cullen!

I wonder if he's virgin...or just super shy.
Maybe he was raised by the chantry like Alistair exept he enjoyed it.
That would explain a lot .

Berelinde: Good point! I didn't think of that. It must be a mixture of PTSD and survivors guilt. It makes me wonder how much it will still trouble him in DA3. I'll be very disappointed if he shows up as a companion/LI completely "healed" with just a nicey-nicey "white knight" personality. The poor guy has been tortured and tormented and I feel that needs to be shown in his personality/story.

There's a high possibility that he could be. But I wonder if they'd use it again since we already had the virgin Chantry boy in Alistair. My bet is that they'll never mention his sex experience (or lack of) so that we can make up our own theory.

If he is a virgin, I hope has some sort of experiance in the way of recruits talking about the ladies in the Blooming Rose.

Given he keeps running into blood mages and abominations, it does not seem like this attitude is working. So he should just drop his guard (and his armor :whistle:).
