Um, to somebody that has twitter, perhaps you could ask them whether the Keep will be released ahead of the main game? I've always assumed yes, but the devs haven't said.

Also, ask whether or not it will be possible to create a world state, download the file onto your PC/console to start a new game and then, at a later date, reuse the state to start another new game without having to go online.

Perhaps somewhat interestingly Mike doesn't state Nevarra isn't in the game like he did with Tevinter.

He did seem to be honestly asking whether it had been officially confirmed.  That suggests he thinks that was a real possibility that is had been, which wouldn't be likely if he thought it wasn't in the game.

That said, it could be that he thinks it was cut, so he would be wondering if they jumped the gun on announcing it, given that it was no longer there.

Pretty sure that's the Dales.

Probably is, it's just very... jungle-y for a region so far to the south.

Supposedly it's from the same location as the other forest/jungle-y screenshot they also showed some time ago.

To answer your first question: Yes, a few months ahead of the game. It says here in this blog post. Last sentence. :)

I am really looking forward to exploring this area.

Yeah, it's definitely one of the most interesting concept areas they've shown. And it doesn't hurt that that they said the area in-game is even better looking... B)

This is a piece of concept art by Matt Rhodes (lead concept artist on DAI) showing the remians of Arlathan, the last city of the Elves. Link is here with some nice commentary from Matt himself -> mattrhodesart.tumblr.com/post/72583796190/cudathedas-here-lies-the-abyss-the-well-of

Its location is the Arlathan forest, to the North West of Antiva.

How many producers does it take to record gameplay footage? Turns out its two, and this was my job today.

Actually I checked the Arlathan codex entries on the DA Wiki when that concept art was revealed, and not once was it mentioned where Arlathan was located, for all we know the forest could have been named in honor of the city not because the city was located there.

While I hope we do get so see Arlathan, I don't want to try and read too much into those taglines which just may be there to wax poetic.

Also consider that the forest itself is considerably outside the region (Western Orlais to Eastern Ferelden) we've been told to expect for this game.

Damn at first I read that as in a month or so we'll be getting the Keep! 

Oh well. Guess we have to wait quite some time..

@davidgaider Why is all the feminine spirits in the Fade demons? Where is the feminine good spirits?

Well, we haven't really seen many "good" fade spirits at all, have we?  They don't really have gender anyway...

(Pre-Host) Justice and Valor, both good spirits, have a masculine identity (voice/build.)  The only spirit I've seen with a feminine form are desire demons. Since the writers and the devs have some control over this, I wonder why they chose that route. Or if they just didn't think of it.

 I believe its been mentioned the Desire Demons are technically genderless, its just when appearing to mortal's they chose the feminine form as they believe its the most seductive, I do have an image in my head of what a male desire demon would look like.................;)

They've always appeared as female, but they can take any form that they think will please their victim. I strongly suspect their appearance in the games is based on the male gaze, though (i.e. straight men are assumed to be playing and therefore must be titilated).


I mean, she made sense for that one templar in the tower, but I would have thought she'd have looked quite different to, say, Connor. That said, maybe she did and we just don't see it.

I know that about the desire demons, and it makes some sense.  Not much to me, because not all ladies should be drawn to a feminine form.  It works I suppose. However, why can't a spirit of Faith or Justice or Valor or Compassion be feminine?

 Why is masculine the default setting for any spirit that isn't a Temptress? <_<  

That's why I sent David the tweet.  I know it might cause a storm on the forums and I'd rather see if he's up for answering it directly.  Or going onto his blog to talk about it further than just a tweet.

I'd love to keep chatting about this, but let's not derail the Twitter thread any further.
