Like i said in another post on this same topic...............take some pills and calm down..........its only a trailer for cryin out loud.........go to the dao home page and look at the description...........you establish or rebuild the grey wardens in amaranthine , which appears to be the area given to the grey wardens at end game that used to belong to Howe.........there are new monsters and new companions but no definitive companion regardless of what the trailer shows. If it is not directly correlated to your specific ending for the character you choose to bring in then they might just give you a choice of who that will be. Wait for the game to come out before you jump all over Bioware with your suppositions. The Only constant is it will be delayed.........wait a minute, thats a supposition........NEVER MIND

"Cannot be purchased with bioware points"



Which i translate as not obtainable from in dragon age and you have to boot up a separate piece of software.



So much for the 2 years worth of content for the original game huh, one (now delayed) extra piece of dlc to date.... yeah why did i fall for that one!!

I can't go through every page in this thread so forgive me if it's been mentioned, but did anyone notice Oghren TWICE in the trailer?

Yeah that second shot kind of proves it, I guess I overestimated Bioware. Not very good and keeping secrets are you, or maybe you simply underestimated the deligance (or insanity) of some people.


Wow, that's pretty much proof right there.  So much for the return of an old favorite, Oghren is easily the worst and most uninteresting character from the original team.  Thanks bioware.


Aw, that's not nice.  I actually liked him; he and Zevran turned Wynne from a nagging old hag to a sexually defensive woman with magical bosoms. :D
Who could say no to asschabs?

All i know is that Leliana had better be in!! and with a all new song!!

I mean Leliana is the best sidekick i have ever had in any game.

I try to stay away from her in some of my games but i just cant!


Can I just say how much I agree with your entire post?! :)

I don't mind Ogrhen being the returning companion, as long as everyone else (cept' Morrigan of course) gets to return as NPC's

You don't like morrigan i take it, I hope we will be able to see her again, it would be very interesting.

i really like Morrigan, but i don't want her back already either. I don't want Morrigan to come back on her own so soon. to me it just would ruin her ending of the original campaign.


I totally agree with this. I'd like to run into her at some point down the road, possibly in the preferably sequel, but I think it would feel cheap to have her leave and then you run after her and find her right off the bat. It would take away from her big, ominous finale. I'm a big fan of Morrigan, but I'm really hoping the sequel doesn't revolve around her. To me, I'd feel like that was fan service more than anything.

Considering it directly expands the original game I would easily consider this content for, well, the original game.

Hopes for the expansion

Respec(confirmed, I believe)

Trap Making involves not only crafting & setting traps but get this you can disarm them as well!!! lol

Minor AI bugs, randomly stop attacking for a second other little things that seem to annoy a lot of ppl

poison for arrows & bolts based on shots fired or hits instead of a timer

MOST IMPORTANTLY MORE TACTICS- i can not tell you how this would make the game twice as much fun to just start with 20 tactic slots or even 10 not having to waste vital skill points on tactics so I can almost never be forced to control my party members & just play as my character. Don't get me wrong I love managing every once in a while on those really tough battles but not every other battle. I want to play my Grey Warden!!!! lol

Those are my high hopes for the expansion to improve upon

I believe you can already disarm your own traps.  Just right click and you get the materials back.

I have a few questions

What if you sacraficed at the end of DAO? But you want to continue using that origin? are you just SOL.. or will you awaken in the fade perhaps?

And what about items and weapons and gold for those continuing from their DOA game? do you keep what you had? does that include what was in the storage chest for those of us with Warden's Keep?


And I could have sworn this was a spoiler free forum.  Hrm.  I must be confused. =P

I'm fairly certain only a rogue or perhaps someone with very high cunning can disarm traps. Perhaps it really is as simple as I've been left clicking sintead of right. lol. I hope not I would feel like a fool!!!!! I ahve Alistair with trap making maxed on this play through & well he can't disarm anything. lol. Hopefully I am wrong if not it seems kind of dumb the way it is set up now.

Also - I can't see the official page from work, but I'm quite excited about this.



I hope it comes out while I'm in the states so I don't have to wait 3 weeks like I did for DA:O.



ENCHANTMENT!

Oh right.  My bad.  Haha, I played only mage/warrior twice each for the accomplishments and played rogue every other time.  I'm in a rogue state of mind.  Ignore my previous post.  ^_^

Will your romance choice be the returning party member (if you romanced someone other than Morrigan) and are there new romances? Ohgren isn't exaclty "an old favorite" to me. In fact i hated him.

The game, which will require a copy of "Dragon Age: Origins" to play, is supposed to run about 15 hours and will allow for players to import and edit characters they've broken in from the core game.

Ok the returning character is suppose to be a favourite, is that my favourite or somebody elses that nobody knows? So everyones favourite and correct me if I'm wrong has to be SHALE. The tank for all seasons.

That sounds good and all, provided MY favorite is included, but 15 hours isn't much to be honest. I know its an expansion pack, but i just don't expect as much character/story depth as Origins. Could be wrong though, hope i am.
