Do we know whether or not we have horns?


All the Kossith we've seen have had horns. Sten was explained as being a 'once in a generation' kind of thing I believe. However in DA2 and the comics all the Kossith who are either Qunari or Tal'Vasoth have had horns. They can't make the character another Sten. Wouldn't feel or look right in the context of the lore, I think

So, are we talking about just a member of the horned, grey giants (because Gaider doesn't like "kossith") that compose the majority of the Qun or a follower of the Qun?
If it's the latter, won't that make for a game much too different from those of the other races? For instance, we shouldn't be able to name our PC beyond "Sten" or "Arvaraad" and romances should not be an option beause they are not demands of the Qun.

Kossith will not be used as a technicall term for the horny people by devs. Just a heads up.

Definately the former. No way they would hype the latter this much.

The difference between Qunari and Tal'Vashoth is going to get really confusing really fast then. =/

They mean the race.
I doubt they would troll us like that.

And anyway, being a follower of the Qun would be a wretched thing, and does not lend itself to the story or gameplay.

Wow. Frostbite 3 must allow Bioware to get ahead of schedule on practically everything to allow something like this. Amazing. Not a single negative thing has come out about this game yet. It's all positive in my mind. Why didn't Bioware switch engines earlier!?

http://ts1.mm.bing.n...670268&pid=15.1

I'm assuming this also confirms we'll be playing as female Qunari too?

Can just walk away from conversation, lol. Forgot to say, extra information bar to be more explicit about what your conversation choices will do, helping prevent the accidental oops I made him hate me moments.

I'd actually be 'really' interested in playing a Qunari Inquisitor (not simply a Kossith): not just because I liked The Darkspawn Chronicles, but also because the Qun is based in-part on Plato's Republic, which I enjoyed reading. I'd love to see how they would incorporate that into the game's plot.

Extra information bar? So there'll be a vague paraphrase and then another more detailed version?

dragons are major bosses, environmental counters, meant to be long term goals.

Did they confirm that they mean the race anywhere?
Because I think it'd be far more interesting to play a Qunari over just a grey giant that will, basically, act the same as the humans, elves or dwarves.

In regards to whether a Kossith PC will be a Qunari or Tal'Vasoth (or even something else) my guess is that will be left up to the player via dialog choices. Much like how in Origins you could believe in The Chantry, The Ancestors, The Ancients, etc and similar to how Hawke could believe in certain things or not in DA2. And while the Devs don't use Kossith because it confuses people, we know, and they know, the difference. They say Qunari, they mean Kossith, i.e. the race, not the belief. Any race who follows the Qun can be a Qunari.
