I'm starting to wonder if Bioware even knows what the tattoos mean, I could understand them just making tattoos that look good and not worrying about what they represent.

 

And I understand why you want to see the tattoos and know what they mean, but in the grand scheme of things it's still very minor, and if they reveal tattoos I feel they should reveal something for all the other races as well.

I'm not asking that they explain the tattoos or show the new ones before the game comes out, I'm asking that in the CC as you cycle through each one it explains which god it represents. It would have been better if there was no meaning attached and the lore was simply that the Dalish liked to tattoo themselves with nature-like designs.

IIRC there was a tweet from Mike Laidlaw stating that this would not be in the game. I think the best we can expect is a blog post or something similar with the tattoos explained.

I just don't understand the reasoning behind their reluctance to explain the meanings. When people have asked before the answer was always something like "not telling." Now in DA:I all elves are forced to be Dalish and have vallaslin but they still wont explain the meanings ugh :pinched:

I tried to look for the tweet, but my search-fu is not at its best today. So again, from memory (which means I could be wrong), Mr. Laidlaw explained that there is no place within the CC where they can insert text, and that it's too late in the process to change the CC interface. He didn't sound at all hostile to the idea, just sounded as if it did not occur to them in time.

 

In later tweets about this topic he sounds less friendly, probably because he's being bombarded with the same question (or minor variants on it) over and over.

Picking up last flight in a bit, can't wait to read the book and find out about the spoiler. The hype is killing me :)


Edit: sorry quoted wrong post! The hype is real!!

Here's what Mike Laidlaw had to say...

 

@ Hrungr

If it isn't troublesome to ask, would it be possible to Tweet the devs if Dalish tattoo options in CC will note the particular god they are associated with?  If not it is no problem at all...and thank you for all your work keeping up with these tweets, Hrungr :)

 

Mike Laidlaw @Mike_Laidlaw 

No, they will not. Good idea, but no room in the UI.

Through the magic of copy and paste, I almost inserted a link to a Blonde Redhead song into the game just now.

 

Ben Gelinas @bengelinas 

It was an old Blonde Redhead song. Don't worry.

 

 

Derek Hollan @Derek_Hollan 

Soon. AKA: "Ack! How did that happen? Ok, we need to fix this. The person fixing it has a long to-do list. No idea how long it will take."

 

Derek Hollan @Derek_Hollan 

Soon-ish. See Soon above +1.

Now it is shorts weather. Soon, it will be jorts weather, and then finally jeans weather.

John Epler @eplerjc
Even pants must go through the pupal stage. Nature is a beautiful thing.

Mary Kirby @BioMaryKirby
@eplerjc Jepler, your pants-coccoon is horrifying. If your pants have a life cycle, you need to do laundry more often.
 
John Epler @eplerjc
@BioMaryKirby Where do you think jeans come from, Mary? They are the mature stage of jorts.

Mary Kirby @BioMaryKirby
@eplerjc Jepler, no. No, Jepler. If your pants are *growing* you have done something horribly, horribly wrong to them.

John Epler @eplerjc
@BioMaryKirby Nature will find a way.

What do you call the time from concept to ship? A Dragon's Age. Well, it feels that way.

Proposal - the 'Canadian' DLC pack, featuring all-denim and a variety of mullets.

 

David Gaider @davidgaider

I think we're already halfway there.

 

Reid Buckmaster @ReidBuckmaster 

I would pay any price for this in any game.

@BioMaryKirby @eplerjc I think this is how people in crunch begin to justify their inattention to certain basic necessities.

I wonder how ripped I would be if I did an ab crunch for every day I've crunched working on a game. #EndofProjectThoughts
