So I really like most of the things I saw in the video but there are some things that really ****** me off:

1. So as the title says, why can Cassandra knock down the gate with her shield? If Vivienne blasted it with a spell I would have understood but THIS?

2. How does the Inquisitor sometimes make huge holes in the ground  with his sword?

Before any of you come and say "it's fantasy so it doesn't matter", I say it DOES matter because while the game is fantasy, it also has to be believable.

Anyway, I really like most of the other things I see. Keep up the good work!

Well then why didn't the Templars replace it? It seems idiotic to leave such an obvious tactical weakness unattended. Even if the gate is old, it still doesn't make sense.

I believe a dev has said that they will be replacing that with something else and that the gate shield bash was a placeholder

2. How does the Inquisitor sometimes make huge holes in the ground  with his sword?

Visual affect used in a lot of RPGs to show the character's strength and the force of impact of the attack

She's a female shaped battering ram...oh and the door was probably eaten by termites. ( yeah I know it's for the awesomeness, but please leave me in my little world where gates can't be smashed like cartboard with only a shield in a few seconds without and explanation)

It's no more unrealistic than a great number of gameplay abilities in previous games.
Also, the party was fighting tevinters, not templars.

I'd put her on my side!  I would have her break all the doors down just for fun.

Varric was actually opening it from the other side. He whole 'bashing' thing was a set up to feed her ego.

So... who wants to write Cass x Varric fanfic with me? I have glitter pens!

Is it such a stretch to believe the gate was really old and the combined force behind the swing, combined with the strength of the NOT rusty shield knocking on it a few times could bring it down?

Honestly I think it's awesome, and I really do hope they don't change it. I do hope however that it only works once and a while, with a large chance to fail.

Why do people die from the murder knife but not from a million other stab wounds, arrows, magic bolts and what not?
