Hey, I know that seems like a dumb question, but the Qunari are being added as a playable race (btw amazing move 
)then I guess anything is possible...
Can this Dragon Age game not have ridiculously huge spiders. I get that they are for shock factor, but I've had to mod them out of the previous two games so that my fiancée can play them. Considering that I won't be using a pc for the next installment and won't have an option to use a mod on whichever next gen system I choose, can the spiders be removed, toned down, or limited in how much they populate areas in the game? If nothing can be done about it I understand, but i just wanted to bring up that this might be a potential barrier for some people.
That's really my only concern.
The Frostbite engine is very difficult to mod. I've read that some people have managed to swap textures or recolor something in it, which is at least in the realm of swapping the spider model with something else, but still very unlikely.
How bad is it for her? Could she handle perhaps bringing the console down and killing them instantly with a command whenever they pop up (e.g., no actual lengthy combat with spiders)? Or is just the sight of them too much?

Another one of these threads? Come on guys....shall we remove open spaces for the agoraphobics next? Or any and all reptiles for the herpetophobics?
There is obviously a difference in scope and practicility between removing spiders and removing open spaces from a game. I'm also not sure that someone suffering from agoraphobia would be affected by "virtual open spaces" as much as someone with arachnophobia would be by "virtual spiders."
There are also many more people with arachnophobia than there are with herpetophobia. According to Wikipedia, it's estimated that 50% of women and 10% of men show symptoms of arachnophobia. While I doubt those numbers accurately portray the number of cases bad enough that a video game cannot be played because it has spiders, it is still an extremely popular phobia.
But no, let's all be glib about crippling mental disorders. Haha!
