there are more male players, therefor more variety of tastes among them, therefor there should be more variety of female characters than male ones.

NO REPEAT ENVIRONENTS

[aries1001]

If you look at the Mark of the Assasin DLC, there were no repeating environments as there were lush and colorfull environments, many gorgeous outdoor scenes. They were two instances where the story branched out in really nice ways, imo.

I expect that DA3 will continue in this tradition.

I expect that Bioware does something about the combat, though, as I find it very unbalanced. The boss fights aka the first wyvern was way too hard and the last boss fight needed, imo, an option to save inbetween the fights. It also needed an autosave at the end before returning Hawke's home in Kirkwall.

The combat itself was way more both strategicaland tactical than in DA2 and the first dlc, Legacy. I expect this to continue in DA3...

More variety of female romance options catering to the many and varied tastes of male gamers? I hope not. I'd much rather get a deeper plot with deeper characters, not "choose the hot chick that suits your tastes best and then go slay a dragon because you're a MAN."

me i want to play a drag-queen of orlais (son if duc and duchesse) and rogue :-) :-P

So long as they arent limited to men, its a great idea to have a wider variety of female romance options. Obviously that wasn't a problem in DA2, where the romances were available to everyone. Its not just men who like to romance attractive and interesting women, after all. I do agree that increasing the number from 2, and having them be a bit more varied in terms of personality, would be great. Someone with the personality of Bethany (but without being your sister, obviously) would be a good example of a nice change. Certainly when you look at the sheer number of romances in ME3 (leaving aside the fact that they stupidly have artificial limits on who can or cant enjoy them) it does seem like 2 is a bit low of a number. I forget what the exact number of female romance options is in ME3, but its somewhere around 7 I think (Im recalling Liara, Ashley, Tali, the girl who replaces Kelly, the reporter girl, and the carry-over romances of Miranda and Jack), which makes it seem rather reasonable to ask that at a minimum the number in DA3 be bumped up from 2 to 3. Of course quality is more important than quantity, but it definitely seems that there's plenty of room for both.

In agreement with an earlier comment, I agree that the MotA DLC was fantasticly done, it really set the standard going forward. Whether you're talking about the beautiful environments, the interesting storyline, or the romance, all aspects were nothing short of top notch, it was one of the best DLC of all time. The only thing missing was the ability to take your new LI with you through the rest of the game, it would've been awesome to have her as a permanent team member. Other than that, it was pretty much perfect, and is a major reason why we all should be very optimistic that DA3 will indeed be as awesome as DAO, and quite possibly even moreso.

Creation kit like in the old days.

- No damned "Hello, I'm gay and I want to get in your pants and if you say no have this fifteen point reduction" in the first conversation after recruiting a character. At least hopefully.
- Something between Origins and 2 in terms of combat. While I felt Origins combat was better overall the melee was just..lacking somehow. That might have to do with the enemy/companion melee sounds coming off louder than the player's own, so your own hits came off more like dull thumps than they did "wow, that sounded like it connected".

Given the last 2 games, I expect a ****ty game with a ****ty ending and nothing that bioware people say about whats going to be in the game to be true. Shallow characters with large boobs, lots of copy-paste environments. A short single player, with multiplayer.

Yeah, going deep into characters is certainly what the average BW fan wants from their games these days.

- Origins

- Better exploration of a larger, vivid, interesting game world

- Better combat - either more tactical (BG2) or a serious action combat (Dark Souls) - not an ugly hybrid like DA2

- Focused plot with satisfying ending

- Meatier sidequests

- And memorable companions, but those were good in DA2 too

Nothing.

I agree with most of what you said, but this thread is for what we expect, not what do we hope for.
I honestly don't see Bioware making a great game for a limited audience, when so far they have been making mediocre(at best) games for a wider audience.

I'm actually expecting all that* - yeah, I'm quite an optimist - because after the DA2 disappointment, TOR's troubled status and the ME3 ending brouhaha DA3 will be a crucial step for Bioware - if it's a fiasco, it might be a deadly one. So I believe they'll put more care in the game.

*Well, except for the Origins. Those I'm not expecting.

I expect they took some highlight from DA0 , battle at Ostagar , the cinematics was pretty epic.
The deeproad and Broodmother was super creepy , as well as the village who protect the urn of Andraste 's ashes , and i liked the whole Brother Genitivi /test of faith.
Bring back the adventures!
And keep the conflict with a lot of shades of grey from DA2 .
If on top of that , i still have crazy companions and a pc who can tell stupid jokes , I'm game.

Oh and a polished and well done game which does justice to what it was supposed to be.
DA team is way capable to deliver a great game , but they need to find a balance with their time frame/budget .

Or equal varieties of both.
I know, equality is so incomprehensible.

No demographic is more important than another.
David Gaider has made that perfectly clear.

I'm almost positive straight males are the majority of gamers.

However, as a straight male myself, I like to RP characters that might not be straight or male, so there needs to be a few options for every gender and sexuality.

I hope they don't forget to include the awesome button this time. I looked for it everywhere in DA2 and I could never find the damn thing. Freaking letdown. That was the only reason I bought DA2...for the awesome button. And it was a lie....like the cake. HA! I'm clever....

[SphereofSilence]

I hope they do not give us false hopes that are not achieved. An example of such is this, go to 4.32:

I believe the scope of Dragon Age 3 will be of course bigger that Dragon Age 2, but not bigger than Dragon Age Origins. It's definitely going to be in Orlais. So yeah, I hope Mike and co stop giving us such high hopes of stuff that ain't gonna happen - like the one where he hinted that the scope could be as big as nearly half the map of Thedas.

that`s why the do demographics, to know what they should care more about...
if
they want to treat each demographic equally they should make an equal
amount of romanceable: lamps, old ladies, kids, dogs, etc (you get the
picture, one for each wird possible fetish)
