I don't think Aaron Sorkin has any problems with women beyond his ex-girlfriends, who are all the Devil incarnate.

@dragonage Will we be able to import game saves from DA:O and DA2 into #DAI? Just wanted to know if I need to get my perfect save ready! :P

Dragon Age ‏@dragonage
@[snip] We'll have more info about that coming up in the near future.

There have been a lot of replies like this recently (from Mark/Mike also), so it looks like there'll be an announcement relatively soon.

I'd imagine save importing is one of the biggest questions they're getting at the moment on various communications channels, considering that it's only in the last month or so that it was confirmed DAI would also launch on the new consoles.

Edit: possibly at PAX Prime?

The quote is from the Chant of Light.

The Old Gods will call to you,
From their ancient prisons they will sing.
Dragons with wicked eyes and wicked hearts,
On blacken'd wings does deceit take flight,
The first of My children, lost to night.

-Silence 3:6, Dissonant Verse

The dissonant verses have been struck from the canonical Chant, so I guess the notion that the Maker's first children are the Old Gods is heretical?

Anyway, my guess is that that could just be some Old God cult temple or something? In the PAX Aus panel, Cameron said this place was in the game and "badass."

Heya, if anyone's going to be at GaymerX, could you record the Bioware panels? Particularly the Plot Conditionals panel. I will even PayPal you a meager sum of money for your trouble.

As long as he treats his female characters better than Sorkin does ;]


It was more a reference to 'everyone is walking and talking and walking and talking' which is a million times easier in Frostbite.

Walk and talks are the best.

Plotting and planning while walking and talking?  Do want!  :o

It always drove me nuts that my character could only have a conversation while standing stock still unless it was a cut scene.  It that's what walking and talking addresses I'm all for it!

This is in cutscenes, I hope?

Because your positional audio was the source of much aggravation, and I bet it still is. I don't want to have chase people all around the map just to hear all of what they're trying to say (put your designers on notice—I don't want to see that!).

The first thing Tallis does in MotA is start talking while running away from you. NOT COOL. :(

:o I can't really tell what this emoticon is supposed to mean but I hope it conveys my manic joy at the prospect of walk-n-talks.

(Also, I post infrequently enough that I forget the devs read the board and everytime they show up in a thread I have a moment of sweaty terror like "OH **** PROFESSOR CAUGHT ME TEXTING IN CLASS")

You speak truth.

Really glad you can do interesting cinematic things more easily with Frostbite, excited to see some of the results.

In Megasorkins how fast will the characters speak in these walk and talks? 5? 7? West Wing speeds? Gilmore Girls? Are you bringing Martin Sheen back as an experienced walk and talk consultant?

Very interesting.

One of the possible subtitles for Inquisition (before they chose "Inquisition") was Apocrypha, which refers to heretical, secret or non-canonical religious texts - I guess, like the dissonant verses that were struck from the Chant but may actually paint a true picture.

I've really liked the implication that the Chantry's published Chant is selective and potentially an incomplete picture of what actually happened in history, so it'll be really cool to go deeper into some of those issues. 

Ah, good catch. That would be awesome. Indeed, DA seems to be very careful about the fact that the whole Old Gods/Magisters/Golden City story is just the Chantry's version of the story. It would be neat for that to come full circle along with Corypheus's story.

Seems a quiet start to Sprint Review Day for us (but fun times for BioWare with the fire alarm). I'll try to keep an eye on the tweets, but I have a project I am working on at work so I may miss some if everyone starts tweeting a bunch. :)
