Edit: and the Masked Empire is a prequel to DAI after all.


Good point!

We really should've seen this delay coming, in hindsight. It never made sense to have a book coming out six months after the supposed launch window of the game.


Quite a few of us did see it coming. And we were always met with insults and hand waving.

Now I'm wondering how Xbone and the PS4 will handle the events of DA:O and DAII


Interactive comic? Seems to have worked... OK... for ME.

Wait, what?

Game Trailers is doing a 1 on 1 with Aaron (SP) Flynn at 8ish Est

 and that the art style would change again. Though I guess the last one is still up for debate.

Indeed it is.  Personally, what my eyes saw was drastically improved graphics, curtesy of the Frostbite 2 engine.  But I didn't see an artstyle change.  At least not with  how they did People.  Look at Morrigan.  She doesn't look "older", as some people on the E3 thread have been saying.      No.  This is what Morrigan looks like when you create her using DA2's art style.  ie. wierd, and different than what she looks like in Origins..

In any event, Shame on those who are pissed off at the fall 2014 release date.    We all asked for an UNRUSHED game with no corner cuts and no sh**y ports.  And here we have  evidence that the devs  are doing what it takes to deliver on those demands.    Fall  2014 is  - by far -  the best news to be found here.    Whenever Bioware takes their time, the end result is  always something amazing.

Many suspected it, the insults were about your certainty and overall obnoxious behavior.

Don't forget the blithe indifference. Or does that fall under hand waving?

Mike Laidlaw ‏@Mike_Laidlaw 8 Jun@[person] Stolen throne sets up Origins. Calling sets up Awakening. Asunder is fallout from DAII. Masked Empire...well, you'll see.

No, Asunder sets up Exalted March.

Way to reopen the wounds, Mike.

I would argue that I never presented my opinion as anything more than what I felt to be logical, but it doesn't really seem necessary. I was right and I obviously has reasons to come to the conclusions I reached. Generally the only counterargument that wasn't insults for general positivity was "yeah, but BioWare said..." That's clearly not a valid counterargument.

Yep. But it's about Bioware generally, not just DA3.

The trailer was pretty boring and didn't address any gameplay concerns. But I'm completely alright with late 2014 as a release date, that makes me much more comfortable (and really just reminds me how much I hate the fact that DA2 never received the delay it so deserved).

Right track, but I would really like to have some questions answered vis a vis tactical combat/gameplay.

Well shame on me then. I am disappointed. Oh well that's life. I always knew Morrigan would be in DAI. Knew it. I was not impressed with the graphics. I'm sorry. Not happy they uglied up Morrigan . Don't believe she'll be a party member but an npc. She's too ugly to romance now anyway.

Like you said, it's more a handwave than a counterargument. As that's the only thing that the constant ragging on plots within plots and great deceptions really deserves.  Either make an ass of ourselves or take them at their word while understanding their comments are very much subject to change at this point. If we get to a point where they make provably false statements about the ending after the game is already done, then maybe you'll actually have a point.

Well../yawn...without gameplay details there's no hook for me.  I don't want another DA2.  They're going to run into the same problem they always run into which is they don't announce unpopular features until its too late to change them.  Great BioWare, you're learning from your mistakes, you're just learning the wrong lessons ;)

Anyone else dubious of the "Actual game footage" line on the trailer? Preistly said it's in-engine footage which is not the same thing, and Frostbite could have easily been used to make a Blur-style CGI trailer.

You make an ass of yourself when you take BioWare at their word.

So, this can't be evaluated as true or false until there's a reveal or it's seven months from now.

Not always too late. They were able to add player-controlled pausing and companions to NWN after fans were appalled by the original design vision. Half-assed implementation on the latter, but they didn't have time for better.

I loved the trailer but I can't help but be a bit dissapointed by this. 

I don't understand what's holding them back from giving us a few basic details at this point. 

We still know practically nothing. We have an idea of the plot, maybe some characters that will play a part in the story(or not!), and some locations are hinted(again.)

I don't understand how this was that substancial reveal they kept going on about. 
I mean, even in this last SprintReviewDay, they were saying stuff like "Looking at some great #DA3 stuff! Stuff you'll see at E3!" or something like that. Just seems like that had something more substancial in mind. 

I wonder if it was EA's fault they only got a 2 minute segment while crap like Plants vs Zombies spin off gets a full 10 mins.

Mike Laidlaw:
Did you notice that was in-engine footage? Not CG, that's some in-engine Morrigan right there. Glorious. #DragonAgeInquisition

[person]:
@Mike_Laidlaw I thought, from the little we saw, it looked stunning. Did I see real 'weather' there? I have high hopes.

Mike Laidlaw :
@[person] Well, you sure saw some rain. As to if it's a system...eh, we'll talk about that later.

We also saw a sandstorm :)
