I don't know about cliffs, but they said that if you're attacked on horseback, you fall/get off after taking a certain amount of damage, so it sounds as if they can't be killed on that front at least.

That is nice.  I just have this habit of wandering too close to cliff edges and totally killing my mounts.

Well from my understanding it's basically an ability, along the same lines as the Mabari in DA2. So while it would technically 'die', when you reappear at the top you could just do your whistle thang and out trots a new mount.

I want to apologize to you I didn't know you were joking,so my apologies. I still don't like the 'Murica it just sounds tacky and disrespectful but that's just my opinion. 

 

 

Anyways enough about it this is OT.

No problem.  As an American, I find 'Murica to be endearing.

I know "The Warden" could refer to any number of Wardens, but it just seems so obvious that it should be our Warden...I wonder if the powers that be could purposely be deceiving us so that we'll be in for a pleasant surprise? Like they've already given away too much by letting us know early on that Hawke is in DAI, so they're intent on hiding our Warden's potential presence in the game even if that means they'd have to be deceitful?

 

I'm probably overanalyzing things way too much at this point...don't mind me...

It would be highly illogical of them to portray "our" warden due to the simple fact that it would be impossible to appease all parties, other than a very minor cameo (and I mean extremely minor) the warden will/should not appear. Hawke on the other hand is different because of the whole "personality" that's developed.

We'll know when we know, I guess.  I've been limiting all my Dragon Age social media to this thread, plus one closed forum I can be sure is safe so as to avoid all spoilers beyond what the devs release :P

 

The comment ages ago that David Gaider tweeted about how the Warden won't be in Inquisition, though, with a caveat (I think the words were "sort of") made me think vision, dream sequence, a flashback, or something similar.  I could be way off, though.

I get what you mean, Elmo95, in that there were so many potential variations of our Warden that it'd be harder to include him/her in DAI as opposed to Hawke. I still think they could've worked it so that the Inquisitor could meet or at least just see our Warden (in reference to the quest objective shown earlier). I know it'd be easier to interact with Hawke both verbally and visually and have Hawke prancing around doing this and that because, well, Hawke can only be human, can only have one definite voice per gender, and can have that set 'personality' we chose for him/her in DA2. Also, unlike Hawke, our Warden could be dead, so if there'd be a big role for him/her in DAI, those who chose to sacrifice the Warden in DAO would be hugely missing out.

 

Since we know we can recreate Hawke's appearance for DAI, I don't think it would have taken too much to be given that privilege with our Warden too; they'd just have to allow us to recreate dwarves or elves as well. We can already do the latter for the Inquisitor, so I don't see why it'd be such a stretch to be allowed to do that with our Warden too. We can't hear our Warden speak, of course (I understand the difficulty with that), but I'd take just being able to see him/her.

 

All the above is probably moot anyway...so again, don't mind me...

First five minutes of Inquisition? #LetsGetCrazy

 

Aaryn Flynn @AarynFlynn

We _could_ do that I suppose...

 

Ashe | Ladyinsanity @ladyinsanity

WELL, you certainly piqued my interest! If, totally hypothetical, it were to come to light, how soon? :)

 

Aaryn Flynn @AarynFlynn

I'll talk to @BioMarkDarrah to get his thoughts :)

 

- Personally, I hope they *don't* do this. I certainly don't want them spoiling the beginning of the game.

 

Unless the begining of the game is selecting Gender/race/class/dificulty/worldbackground and enter the CC....  THen they've ALREADY spoiled the first 5 minutes.  And for some, the first 5 HOURS.....

David Gaider on diversity among game developers...

... and on writing elements that may share similarities with other works that predate it.

Lol!  At least I won't be spending a boatload of cash buying new mounts all the time.

I remember someone quoting this on a similar question:
 

Mediocre writers borrow. Great writers steal.“

I'm not 100% sure so I could be wrong, but I think George R.R Martin used that quote in one of the youtube convention videos about GoT.

Edit: As for who came with the original I have no idea :P

I thought I heard it the first time in a JMS quote during a DVD commentary for...I think A Call to Arms.

The first day. (Night, assuming it has a midnight release.) I will simply sit, drinking code red as I constantly mess with the CC. Possibly starting the game for 5 minutes and then deleting the character because I don't like the way they look.

 

I have done this for every Bioware game, I have a problem it seems.

it would have been a nice benefit to be able to loot the town and take everyone's stuff...but even without that i still let them die :devil:

Heh, the only way to actually loot the town is to "save" it and let all the fighters die looting them one at a time before you kill off the zombies.

When I first picked up ME1, I ended up spending 4 hours creating my first Shepard... only to go in game and find out that things had gone terrible terribly wrong. >.> In DA:O, it took me about 5 hours to finally make my Cousland. DA2 only tool me about an hour, but I didnt want to mess with the presets too much.

But the DA:I CC just looks super gorgeous so Ill probably end up spending most of release day(and then some) learning to play with it.

I don't I'll ever really understand thanksgiving, but then that might be because I'm British.

It's simple.  First you take a lot of harvest foods.  Then you eat them until you can't eat any more. Then you have really awesome pie.  Then you say "thank you" and watch a football game.

 

I have it on good authority that the football game is the only authentic historical part of the whole business.

Indeed, there are many depictions of the pilgrims watching the Lions get destroyed by whoever they play. 

 

Actually, I think they won last year..but it was the texans.

 

Alright, way, way OT. I'm sorry.  :P
