I just got done reading gamespots article on the new dragon age. http://www.gamespot....g=Topslot;Slot1

It is cool to see less small environments a more open world exploration and resource management reminescent of bioware classics like baldurs gate 2. 

"What we want to do is say, stop thinking about the encounter. Don't think, if I can just get one guy to the end of this fight everyone will magically come back to life. We want you to think more about the adventure. We want you to think about the long term."

Since the game word is bigger. I thought of a good way to make the game less mundane then encounter after encounter like past dragon age games is putting in difficult enemies that spawn in areas like you would find in rouge games. These enemies are more powerful then their standard counterparts but dissapear and get replaced by weaker versions of themselves if you return to fight them far later in the game. The reward for killing these powerful enemies is a slightly more gold then they would normally recieve. So not to pressure the player in having to dispatch these enemies.

What ideas does the community have for the new dragon age?

The one thing I'm hoping for and I hope they do it with this new engine is better cities. Lively, bustling cities, and quaint small villages and towns.

As far as the larger areas. They need to have things that make going off the main path and exploring worthwhile. I saw one video that said caves are strewn about the areas, so I'm assuming Skyrim type cave diving is a possibility.

I think bioware is doing a good job showing as they are telling this weekend at pax( I'm not actually there, just by what I have seen recently on YouTube). Which was their goal all along, "showing" and not just telling. To me that makes a lot of difference and creates more excitement to play the game, when you can see what they are talking about. So I hope they continue the course in that aspect.

That would be great, but my only concern from PAX is this. There is footage of the Inquisitor leaving what appears to a be a city, and I only saw four NPCs, one of which was a merchant, doing the same merchant animations from the past two games and the other three were a guard and two residents(?). They were all just so static, and it was really jarring after seeing such beauty in the other parts of the footage,

Oh, for a second I thought this thread was going to be about advertising.

Ambient NPCs tend to be added later. Not to mention that you'll probably get more people as your keep is 'upgraded.'

I don't think improving cities is part of DA:I though. They have a lot on their plate already and it might not be a priority.

Already built here.
I suspect its still snooze city at Gamefaqs, Neoseeker, and other sites.
A better is question is how is the EA marketing department going to handle this after criticism for DA2 and ME3.

I would love to see farms, villages....the people you are working to protect.

Now I have a sudden urge to play a kleptomaniac mage.

you don't always play a kleptomaniac mage... or the other classes for that matter?

It's difficult to create farmworker AI. I'm sure that by release date we'll see NPCs that look more like worker ants, but YMMV a lot on what exactly it takes to make the world look functional and living. 

[Angrywolves]

How much of the worker stuff was there in skyrim ?
I have Oblivion but haven't gotten very far into it but I don't recall seeing a lot of people .
I'm not near a city though so there may be more people in the vicinity of the cities.

[Eveangaline]

I'm already excited.
