Hi all,

Just in case you didn't see these, gamebanshee published an article that includes some of the tweets from Mike Laidlaw after the PAX panel. Obviously you can also see these on his twitter feed.

Here is the article: Link

Here is a copy paste of the tweet Q&A (some really interesting stuff in here!):

Q1: Will we be able to talk more freely with followers? As in: Not just when they have a quest?

A1:
Yes! Lots of interactions in DAII, but limited access. We will make
sure you can have "fireside chats"...or hugs...when you want.

Q2: Voiced Main Character? Yes/No?

A2:
Voiced. However, team's working on ways to improve
clarity/predictability of wheel. More details to come, will want
feedback on new bits

Q3, from Dawn of the Seeker Q&A: Will DotS have any info about Morrigan?

Q4: Nope, Morrigan's only for the games. Too personal for a fixed script. Can confirm there WILL be more of her story coming.

Q5, from Bioware Base: Enchantment?

A5: Enchantment!

Q6: Will we see more class-specific stuff? Mage only storylines, etc.

A6: Yes. In general, more exclusive content based on how you play / choices you make on all fronts.

A6b: Considering more story impact for specializations, for instance. (Blood Mage, especially.)

I for one am really pleased they are working on ideas for clarity of the dialogue wheel. Also the class-specific content should be a great inclusion. So far it really seems The Next Thing is moving in just the right direction for me.

[Jessihatt]

Oooh I'm more excited about how specialisation will impact story.
I know a lot of players wanted people running from their blood mages in fear.

After hearing our feedback for DA2, I really think DA3 will be amazing.

Yes this too, very good plan.

I think it will be too. You have to give them all credit for clarifying a few things in the past few days that clearly demonstrate they are listening to fan feedback. I don't think anyone can say they aren't anymore at least.

 Hugging companions and class-specific content. This is going to be a great game!

[AngryFrozenWater]

I am glad about the blood mage stuff. It's good to see that the message arrived.

Sounds good to me, now all they need to do is confirm Cullen as a companion/LI and give us an Orlesian masquerade ball and I'll be one very happy camper LOL.

Oh yes! We definitely need Cullen as a companion/LI in DA3! And I have an inkling we may get Cassandra too.
A templar and seeker will be interesting after Asunder. 
And if they're following the lead of a MAGE of all things, ooooh.

This ... is so unexpected, I wonder if this is the same Mike Laidlaw who wouldn't go back 180 degree.

This does give some hope because some the ideas mentioned are part of my main gripe. I hope it's not another PR empty talks though.

Fair enough to be a bit suspicious, but 'PR empty talks' tend to be fairly general in my experience. These are some pretty specific responses that it would be quite difficult to walk back from if they didn't follow through.

Ooh, I hope specialization-specific content makes the cut. If my assassin got to assassinate someone giving me trouble or mages ran in fear on my templar... sounds like success.

We'll they've confirmed that there will be more on Morrigan's story, which is something at least.

I guess that's the best compromise for casual dialogue that doesn't screw with the super-cinematic path they're gunning for. It's a step up from DA2.

Well, we already knew both of those. What we're still waiting to hear is if there'll be a mute option for the PC, and if full sentences can be viewed ahead of selecting a paraphrase.

Q6: Will we see more class-specific stuff? Mage only storylines, etc.

A6: Yes. In general, more exclusive content based on how you play / choices you make on all fronts.

Nice. Interested to see how that works out. Hopefully getting the specs made available will also figure in to this.

I hope Oghren makes return and he is immune to the taint or something (because of his unhealthy drinking habits)! XD

Unless one of those "new bits" is a toggle to turn it off, I don't expect I'll be interested in the rest.  Sigh.

Thanks for posting this, Ponendus.

Looks like classes and specializations are replacing origins. If story and dialogue changes based on your specialization, then that'll be good. I'd imagine a warrior with the Templar specialization won't exactly have any mage fans.

It sounds like they are bringing the companion interaction from Origins back. None of that Zaaed treatment stuff but we will get dialogue that only pops up after a certain time too. So companion interaction seems like a mix between Origins and DA2.

Believe it when I see it.

As far as specilisations go , there should be a quest associated with them.

I hope they have plenty of time to design this game.

Sounds good, looks like sandal is back and we will get morrigans story fleshed out more. It's cool that our class will impact the story/ world more, nice.
