Just on the Inquisitor's accent: going on past evidence the vast majority of players will choose to play as a human. Of those, historically a majority will use the male human. The player character has the most lines in the game, it's the voice that players will hear most often, and for better or worse has often been used to criticise or praise the character themselves (mShep versus femShep, say). So, broadly, I imagine getting the male and female humans' voices right is quite important in marketing and selling the game.

Given all that, I'm not at all concerned if the Inquisitor were to adopt an accent that Bioware thinks people will appreciate rather than reject. It's far more important to satisfy as many people as they can, instead of potentially alienating them.

Not that a French/Orlesian accent is personally alienating at all, but I imagine it would be confusing and possibly disconcerting to some of the people who Bioware want to buy the game. In that sense, playing it safe is better than people freaking out because they sound French.

(I mean, we've seen hostility to an Orlesian-sounding Inquisitor on the BSN, would the reception be any better among the millions of new players that BW want to attract to the series?)

Question: @Mike_Laidlaw Are the voices in the video the ones that will be in the game?
Reply: Probably! Varric and Cass should be their original actors at least.

Yeah, I get it with the PC, although I'm mildly annoyed at the British accent yet again.  I'm wondering why Vivienne has to have a British accent.  She's Orlesian.

From watching one of the gameplay demos, I was hoping Templars would get a new design

They do have a new design.  Glowing red.

[SgtElias]

I didn't notice it the first time I watched the video, but does Vivienne sound like she's voiced by Natasha Little? She did the female Sith Warrior in SW:TOR, as well as Janeka in DAII and some voices in Origins.

Or my ears don't work. That's always a possibility.

[ElitePinecone]

Like someone said earlier, it's possible she was transferred to an Orlesian circle from somewhere else in Thedas.

Though yeah, I'm slightly disappointed that we won't see a haughty Orlesian mage flinging fireballs and insults.

Unless that voice wasn't Vivienne, of course.

Someone: Will ist be posible on PC to play the whole combat in the tactical view, not just in the pause? Like it was in Origins.

Mike: Yup!

Also, I thought the transition between camera styles (iso / over shoulder) during combat was smooth and not jarring as it can sometimes be.

The camera system in Frostbite is so much more capable of those types of transitions i find.

She was in an Orlesian circle by the sound of it, but as far as I'm aware we know little to nothing else concrete about her, including where she grew up; we know circles move mages around, after all.

Edit: Think I'll just shut up, seems people keep beating me to saying things today.

So umm Mr. Schumacher since your here would you mind confirming that not all the romance options will be romancable by either gander for us please.

Can't confirm or deny unfortunately. Though the panel yesterday was interesting for us as people shared what they do/do not like about both methods. patrick was pretty surprised and had some assumptions challenged which was great!

Sorry about that BTW still feel a little bad for so bluntly disagreeing with some of the other fans

Definitely Vivienne speaking here.  Within the first few seconds of this vid.

Was the mage holding a book and a staff also the Inquisitor? Because if it is... OMG BW, you just made my day!

Sounds about right to me.

Why does Cassandra sound different? Other than that, it looks great! Next year can't come any sooner!

Other question ..

WIll friendly fire be back ?
Was the demo played at easy difficulty ?
Is Vivienne Rivaini  ?

Difficulties don't really exist yet, that will happen later. The demo was done (by a by who had played that section of the game like 100 times) at the current difficulty which will probabky become normal but whose actual current Vance may shift in any direction within the next year.

So the answer is really, it was done on an undefined difficulty

OMG I just so the combat vid for the first time. That two handed sword was awesome. The pace was perfect, thought they were gonna slow it down back to DA:O pace.
Now to see how this will work overall when playing together with the party(From a tactical point of view) felt a bit too 'isolated' though as like you are controlling one character. I always switch between different party members tactically to efficiently dispose the baddies quicker.

Anyone have read the Game front article

It's talk about Leliana  join your squad? Different VO for the protagonist depending of your race and body size ? What the hell ? 

Body size ? Slider for body size ? really ?
