Yay new tweets! On another topic, someone please tell me we get to kill lord seeker Lambert! I want him dead!:devil:

Muhahahaha... /chough sorry got carried away there.


Spoiler--



He's already dead. Cole killed him. 


We don't technically know that. I will eat my boots if Lambert doesn't show up in some capacity in DAI.


Also it amuses me that Meredith's elevator is just as defective as she is. XD


You're on!:D Now what shall I eat if Cole didn't kill him? My husbands headphones?:?:whistle:

So, they're gonna use a female and male PC in marketing? Coolness.

That's also good for ppl that have no idea that they can play as a female PC. When I first tried BW games, I had no idea. A casual gamer--until BW turned me out!--that just thought to try the games out. I'll never forget that moment when I discovered that feature. It was a first for me.

So, yeah, I think it is good to highlight your game's capabilities. Because truth is most ppl just don't know. They don't follow game news, or join forums, et al. They peruse the game store one day. See some interesting cover art. Read the blurb on the back to get a general idea.

It's a great feature. And for me it's a feature that now can tip the scales when I'm trying to decide if I want to purchase a game.

I don't see any reason why they wouldn't use the female protagonist for marketing purposes. I mean they used FemShep on boxart for ME3's collector edition. I am glad that they are doing the same for DA3.

Oh thank god! All of my introductory CS professors liked to beat the Towers of Hanoi solution into my head whenever they went over recursive algorithms. It's just not fun anymore... :unsure:

I'm not sure I'd ever be able to get any work done if that giant Arishok picture was in my office. I would spend the entire day in fear that he would leap out of the wall and kill me.


That's the Dreadnought meeting room :)


And that's the one that's used the least? No wonder. I'd be terrified if I had to do a presentation facing that picture! Posted Image

It's also a somewhat cramped meeting room where the projector is easily obstructed if someone opens the door and blahblahblahblahblahblahblah boring stuff blahblablah.

I like Chateau Haine. That's a good sized meeting room with decent spacing, yet now so big it loses it's coziness. Lots of productive meetings in that one!

Château Haine sounds so bad ...maybe because I'm french .Stuff like Château amour etc are used to name wines , not castles .
It really sounds as cheesy as Love Boat.

Anyway it's really nice that the female pc will be used for marketing .Yeah!

Oh good! :wizard:

I remember I was really pleased to find the the cover of my me3 game box reversed into a cover with femshep instead of manshep.

I am very happy that Bioware has decided to promote our future female protagonist! Thank you infinimment be listening to your female audience we are, I'm sure glad this wonderful news. I bring you my most sincere encouragement because I know you work for like crazy to meet the demand of fans who are sometimes wicked and judge hastily.

It was even in the first Mass Effect, as a method to reactivate an AI. (Then they stopped doing puzzles altogether in that series :/)

I actually don't mind the Tower of Hanoi, though the logic questions or puzzles that needed players to keep a piece of paper handy near the console/computer were also really fun. One of Alain Baxter's tweets back in  February mentioned puzzles - interesting if they're included in a significant way in DA3. 

(I'm struggling to remember whether DA2 had puzzles in the base game - I know Legacy and Mark of the Assassin had them, and they were actually quite complex and interesting, but that seemed to be a reaction to player criticism more than an evolution of what was in the original product)

Lots of concept art and things like that all over the walls, everything mark showed was DA:O DA2. I can't wait till we get some DA3 stuff painted and framed. What he didn't show was the elevators, each door is a different character from DA, there is a Hawk, Cassandra and Meredith.. Meredith gets stuck a lot, not many people take her elevator anymore. :

indeed!

also theres a reason the "dreadnought" meeting room is the least used :)


HOLD THE PHONE. I thought this image was supposedly just concept art to show off the new armor idea, and not *officially* confirmed or denied to be Cassandra?

So... do we have confirmation that Cassandra is officially in Inquisition's concept art? I mean, I doubt the team would choose some random never-see-her-again lady to paint on their elevator. Plus Blair said...  :whistle:

I think that concept art is old concept art of her. Like, before DA2 was finished. Could be horribly wrong, however.

Maybe, but that begs the question why she was used for a blog post demonstrating how they want to handle companion armor in DA3.

The events mainly happen the same, but either no different, slightly different, or wildly different depending on YOUR canon.

If they decide to market a female character even a bit more, it could really help in showing that a female character is playable though I think it's becoming more well known now with Bioware being more popular than it used to be.

Laidlaw tweeted that he showed some stuff to some fans, including a fight. We must find these people. I would post the tweet but I'm on my phone therefore I am unable.
