Has anyone asked if this game allows for farming? In the sense of going through areas and killing re-spawned enemies over and over until you level up past a certain areas difficulty?

If you kill everything, they won't come back because you've changed the ecosystem.

You can deplete resources, not sure how much enemies will respawn, or if they will at all. However they have mentioned an example that said that if you kill a bandit group in an area, a different group/enemy(?) will settle in its place, or something like that.

Really it's a shame they're encouraging people to assume bandits and enemy groups can just repopulate that easy. If we don't start conserving our worlds enemy npc population, by 2020 we'll only have 1/24th of our current numbers. By 2035, they could be extinct.

I joined Bioware just after NWN shipped. I was/am a huge fan of the BG games. Being asked to work on DA was a privilege.

Did ya go all fangirl on your first day?

 

Mike Laidlaw ‏@Mike_Laidlaw 

No, my first day the HVAC was broken, office overheated and I built my own desk: 30 degrees inside, -27 degrees outside.

 

Ability Drain ‏@AbilityDrain 

Ouch!

It was a very grounding experience. "Welcome to game development, son. Build your own desk in the heat."

It's hard to describe how apt a metaphor that is for everything we do, especially during engine changes.

There needs to be a save the bandits group, how else are you going to get those shiny loots?  Those moth eaten scarfs?  Those 10 bits??

Yet, in player land it feels like forever.

My main concern is getting to the desired level I want. I like grinding - I feel I'm getting stronger - and I hope this game allows for that. I also like exploring so I hope nothing his really time sensitive. I want to fight lots of enemies and explore lots of areas without feeling pressure.

 

Like in ME3, before the game was released I thought I'd only be able to do several missions before the next major plot advancement. As I started playing I realized I'd still be able to do all the side quests and the reaper forces don't advance until you complete the major priority missions. I hope DAI will be like that. No major advancements until you've reached an objective and less about countdown (like claiming the village vs going after the keep in the leaked DAI demo a few months back). While they can be fun, I like taking my time.

 

(This is why I'm probably not going to like FF13 LR...besides the obvious plot issues carried over from FF13-2 and the already poor plot I've heard is in FF13 LR).

Supposedly main story arc progression is handled by interacting with the War Table, so I'd hazard a guess that you could run around doing quests in the areas you've unlocked before choosing to advance the story.

I don't think it's the case that you'd be catapulted forward automatically upon reaching enough "Inquisition power points", or whatever system they're using. Though surely they'd have to limit you becoming too powerful or making the Inquisition too influential right at the start of the story.

As for respawning enemies, I don't think it's been said that they'll be gone *forever* in one region if you wipe them out from that region. The version I heard was that it would take time, and in some cases other creatures or factions would come in first.

The clock is more a psychological thing than a real danger. Failing is not so bad anyway since you carry over stuff into the new game. Once you know what you are doing you can finish the game in 2-3 days and wonder why they never included a skip to day 13 option.

 

The plot is strange, but makes it's own sort of sense once you finish the game.

[Exaltation]

Anyone with Twitter can please ask the devs if we can continue the "house cleaning" tradition on DAI? (Gangs,killing people like Athenril/Meeran,etc.)

[TrueMyst]

Let this thread die, for the love of andraste.

Why?

What is wrong with you? This is the Twitter thread, man! As long as the devs post tweets pertaining to the game (and sometimes not even about the game), it will not die!

[SomberXIII]

Why?

Maybe he doesn't like off-topic posts. But they aren't problematic for me. Keeping only tweets wouldn't make this thread interesting.

[Saturamas]

Guys i don't know if this has been answered but have they thought of adding kill animations like the ones they had in Origins?They were a nice touch

[Ajna]

Some people just have to try and suck the joy out of everything don't they?

He said 'thread' not discussion, though.

[Maraas]

And maybe you Can also decide that you want both factions working for/with you.......?

From what I've seen in that unfortunate dwarfisitor video, Inquisitor can also get on the wrong side of both templars and mages, as he fights them both in that demo. (Although it could be too early into the game for them to reconcile or maybe those were the splinter groups, idk.) Kinda like neutrality, too, and I seem to remember many people wanted an option like that with templars and mages in Kirkwall. "A plague on both your houses, I'm leaving." ))
 

No major advancements until you've reached an objective and less about countdown (like claiming the village vs going after the keep in the leaked DAI demo a few months back).

Even then it's an area you're already familiar with. You come to Crestwood, claim/build yourself a keep, explore and leave. Then you apparently activate some sort of trigger advancing the story, your forces there report an attack on the village and you come back to investigate.

Will there be coffee in Dragon Age: Inquisition?

 

 

sebastianhanlon @hanlsp

@Mike_Laidlaw @BioMarkDarrah @user there's coffee under every texture, in the joints of every animation, in the space between the words

[JeffZero]

I hear the music as I read that, and it reminds me I want coffee.
