The only thing on the survey that's been shut down as inncorrect is the 10 companinons thing. Which I actually quite liked. 


The part that mentioned ten companions was also translated from German (I haven't seen the original posted anywhere), and it's possible that 10 companions are the total max, and our "recruitable" maximum of those is quite a bit less. As in, I'd expect marketing materials to trumpet 10 companions without including the nuance that it's not possible to get all ten in a single playthrough.

KOTOR had specific companions depending on gender, Bioware's done it in the past based on class (Bethany or Carver) and there could always be an element of player choice involved.


That could well be a possibility.



I guess we'll jsut have to wait and see


I did read something else about us being able to bring along a 4th companion. You know, party of five?
I've wanted to have a bigger party to manage since Origins. Just four people to manage is a bit boring after a while. And for somebody that's usually really OCD about these things to be bored with an even number is saying something.

Not only could it be a way to make fights a bit more complex would really improve on the possibilities of of tactics. The banter would be much better as well I'm thinking 

Here's to hoping :happy:

Just got a response from Mike on a question about racial selection:

@Mike_Laidlaw Mike, I know you've said other races are possible in future games, but do you plan on letting us choose, or will it be set?

@Gaiden96 Ideal is player choice.

What I got from this is that if they do bring back racial selection in a future game, they prefer to allow players to choose the race, instead of having us play a game where the main character is always an elf or dwarf. 

Sounds good to me. Shame that game won't be Inquisition, but hey, future seems promising. Kind of.

A party of four companions was mentioned in the survey along with the player castle, co-op and things like "exploration" and "visceral combat", but it's a bit hard to tell what from that list was confirmed and what was just gauging player reaction. A couple of things were correct, it might not necessarily mean that all of it was accurate...

Was it 4 companions? Or 4 in total. Including the PC?

I think it was 4 companions plus the PC. As in, a party of five people including the PC.

I was super excited about this too, but then again it cold be false along with the 10 companions thing.

If it helps, even I don't know what that is. Mark is a horrible photographer, and should feel bad.

Instead of Towers of Hanoi, we're doing the "how many triangles" puzzle!

If I might throw my own guess in, that triforce of failtography might not actually be something in the game, but may instead be an infograph shown to devs behind the scenes. Alternately, maybe it's one of those in-game animation slides, like the ones between acts in DA2? I freaking love those, they're beautiful.

Also, if I can read the blurry writing down the bottom correctly, I can make out 'do we accomp...' and the rest is blurry. So make of that what you will.

Completely unrelated but your comment made me remember what I was just thinking this morning: I hope DA3 has puzzles!

Even the first Mass Effect had a Tower of Hanoi puzzle on Noveria, and I loved the gameplay options they provided in terms of rewarding players for thinking a bit.
