Idk, a stripper club sublevel. Oh, and customisable drape colors


Let's take it a step further and say custom colors for basically anything that could realistically be replaced. I'm not asking to change the type of stone it's made of. Just the curtains, the sheets, the wood the tables are made of, the window panes maybe... I feel like I'm forgetting something.

Do they have hair dye in Dragon Age?

Like the thing in Mercs 2 where you attack the mansion you end up using as the HQ for your group?

Maybe it's run by rogue mages? Or rogue templars? Or an organization made up of some of both?

Hey, this is good.

I prefer them cozy, but we should have an option for each.

Castle looks nice, but appears a bit crowded. Maybe.

So..

Training Ring in the Courtyard (obviously) to get your hitting of the A button down

Forge for Custom Weaponry/Armor if that stuff is in the game

Stable for horses, walking across that bridge would get redundant really fast

Secret passageway leading to river/other side of the mountain, may be useful for lore purposes

Grand Hall with throne and feast table, again obvious

Treasury room in which you can:
-Customize visually. Banners, chairs, tables, statues, torches, etc.
-Customize defense(maybe) scorpions on top of towers, murder holes, etc. If the castle were to be put under siege, this would be key.
-Customize functionally (maybe). We have 4 empty rooms. Do you want them to be barracks or gardens or kitchens or whatever. Could add replayability if done well.
-Count and track your income if there are any sources other quest rewards-or if they are any losses other than what you spend...

A game that I had a castle that I liked was the first Overlord game. When you started, it was a beat up run down piece of crap because it had been sacked and looted before the game began. As you progressed through the game, it was gradually repaired and then made better than it was in the first place. I think that'd be neat if done well. The Overlord game only showed 3 or 4 stages of reconstruction, if memory serves (beat up-> beat up with scaffolds all over and dudes carrying building materials around-> ?-> fully restored). You could then throw away loads of your finite money on things like banners or stuff your mistress. I think it'd be a good concept to base the castle on if the castle itself progresses.

So, an adaption would be you conquer that bad boy at the start of the game but it gets all beat up in your conquest and you have to fix it up. Or the bad guys siege it, and the leader gets killed and passes the command to you. Then you rout the siege and have to fix the place up.

Then again, they are other ways to make the castle interesting then having to fix it or upgrade it. But it's an idea.

Assuming the leaked info from several months back is true, it is logical to use the castle as a primary base to convene and plan your operations from, and to train, command, and dispatch your forces on short notice to wherever they are most needed... pretty much like how the Warden Commander operated out of Vigil's Keep, albeit much more complex and grand in scale... or so I would hope.

The rest is just window dressing, much like furnishing or building a house in Skyrim.

I'll be content if we have the ability to defend it from the evil forces of skeletor.

Correct image of castle added.

And I thought Fable 3 was fine. Though I don't recall the castle thing, it did a good job of war time prep.

I don't remember them saying it was to be "our castle." Just that it was a point of interest.

Hopefully I can throw anyone who questions my awesomeness over the edge.

I wonder if there'll be a custom coat of arms thing?

If I can manage it, my first female char will have a coat of arms that has dynamite with a laser beam.

I will feel incredibly trolled if I managed to misread that to that extent.

One of the guys kind of slipped a bit and said something like "it will be very important" but I really don't recall it being "ours" once unless they tweeted or said so outside of the panel.

Also, I learned that the game will take place 3 years post DA2.

Ha! Yeah, of they say 'oh, no... the game is going to HAVE a castle. Not that you get to own one. And, actually; the castle won't be enterable. In fact, it's just a model.'

Will we at least get to sell a broodmother for tentacle sex purposes?

Oh, man, I hope this is a base of operations like the party camp. If so, I hope companions move around doing things and talking to each other. It would also be fun to sort of hold audiences, like in DA:A.

I kind of find his enthusiasm endearing, though.
