Where are the toilets?! WTHell!



So unreelistik.

A bunch of griffins showed up, bundled the horses up into cloaks which they tied up with bowstrings, and flew them away to a far land where they spitted them on spears and roasted them, pausing only to gnaw on a couple of old scabbards that they'd brought along for the purpose, thus ensuring that their teeth would stay nice and white.

Insert appropriately witty comment.

Hmm... If you could shoehorn a comment about the game being too easy, then it'd be perfect.

Well played, truly.

Wasn't Loghain riding a horse when he left Cailan to die? I'm pretty sure it wasn't a halla or one of Tegrin's oxes.

I myself and the members of my party rode across Ferelden several times while traveling to different locations. Except Shale.



Seriously though, this isn't Ocarina of Time or Shadow of Colossus. It would have been nice to have horses in Camp, just for show, but I don't really find it that important.

I think I saw some in the Circle Tower. 

Hey, just trying to be helpful.

[Baalzie]

There were toilets?

Oh... Isn't that a spoiler? BAD Moderator! *ANYTHING that tells anything at all about game content is considered a spoiler etc etc yadayada...*

And I wish I knew that before I used the Fade as a toilet tearing the veil and gettin' Uldie all whack...

Horses are coming in 1.03 as the fix for long loading times between locations.

They will also have saddlebags to carry all the elfroot.

[Adria Teksuni]

And waffles.

I know the good folks at Bioware mention gryphons that were once used by the Grey Wardens have become extinct but there is no explanation for the absence of horses. Where are they?

Are horses buried in the great dark beyond next to Jimmy Hoffa and multiplayer?

More importantly, why don't all partymembers and NPCs never eat, drink or sleep? Why do they never have to fether the donkey or take a good long sh...

-.-

Gryphon's food of choice = Horses
Food supply ran out, Gryphon's died off.
Simple

D. Gaider ventured on to one of the previous threads about including horses. In a nutshell, they decided not to include horses because they didn't want to devote resources to something that wasn't really going to be a major part of the story. Creating all the horse models and models for people on the horses would have used resources that they wanted to allocate elsewhere. I hope that I haven't overly simplified his explanation.

Silly answer. Why can't you give a serious response like the rest of the thread?

Already tried, Macon.  If the OP was REALLY interested in an answer, he would have used the search function anyway.

People!
We are talking about a small company with what, THREE employees, who can barely scrape together the game engine as is, working out of a cardboard box in the backalley for minimal wage and having minimal sales, how can you in your right minds expect them to actually pay attention to details, and implement such things as HORSES and CLOAKS and SCABBARDS and the damn BOWSTRINGS, which require so much work in animation department that it would take twenty-four supercomputers three hundred years just to compute the physics for a single cloak?


I mean, it's not like it's some bloody large company with the backing of one of the largest publishers on the planet, huge budget, immense income from sales for PC, PS3, XBOX 360, various DLCs and assorted merchandise, and having a massive retailer and marketing network.


Oh, wait...

Since this has already been answered recently, I'll just pop over to the search function and... oh, hey! There it is!

there is literally NO travel in this game.. WHY by the gods would we need horses or any other mounts.

[Undead Hunter 27]

LOL the darkspawn got to them and wiped them out

[Tattercloak]

All of the horses are probably in Orlais. After all, what good is a chevalier without a cheval?

[Silensfurtim]

They became nugs.
