I don't see at all why we would need to know all the companions for Bioware to offer us a reveal of one companion who would also be an LI.

If it were up to me, we wouldn't tell you a single other thing about the story at all--never mind the characters you meet, or who will join your party. The desperation of some people to spoil themselves silly is a bit of a mystery to me.

So is smoking, drinking alcoholic beverage, and doing pot, among many other things...:happy:

It's like when you had a bottle of a nice beer (or other beverage of your choosing) and you never taste it, but you know that it's so good that you want even a drip of it, then when you already spoil yourself and have another bottle, that other bottle won't be the same as the first one. (it may or may not be better, depending on the person)

Rock for love interest.

I didn't know Bioware was doing a crossover with Capcom.

Gaider kind of went from laughing at us players for our DAI predictions , broken clock is right sometimes to being irked players wanted info and if it were up to him we wouldn't get any. He needs to write another 4000 words imo.
At some point Gaider's bosses will decide we should be told some news.

Personally, I prefer small drips of information leading up to a game's release instead either info dumps or complete developer silence. It's not always an easy balance, but it keeps my interest engaged in the game without giving away so much that I feel like I know all the secrets before I start playing.

In my ideal world, rather than having all the companions announced at once, I'd rather see them drop a little info one at a time starting with ones we're pretty sure of (for example, Varric and Cassandra) counting down to the ones who are still total wild cards. Discussing them individually would give us something to chew on while we wait.

Whatever they decide, though, I will look forward to it.

Saying he doesn't understand why people want to spoil themselves doesn't mean he's irked by people wanting more information. 

Methinks you're just predisposed to read negativity into anything he writes.

It's the same mechanism that makes many people go "what is it? what is it? tell me!" when they're told they're going to get a surprise. Defeats the purpose of a surprise, sure, but the curiosity wins. 

If the release date wasn't so horribly far away, I would resist fishing for information myself... but a year of waiting is too much for my inner child. I don't care for the LI reveals, but I do crave for every little bit of concept art, every hint of NPCs or mechanics, and I would kill Anders for beta access.


(I let the bastard live, because I just... couldn't. Mostly because I guessed what he was going to do and I was angry at the plot writers for not providing an option for a clever player to confront Anders about his explosive plans.)

Exactly. I am so excited with what I have seen and as soon as I saw that trailer from E3 and the Game Informer article I was sold.
Such a sucker for Bioware games.

You can stop waiting because here's a pic of the new LI:

Yes, yes, but the question is: Is that a bi mailbox or a straight mailbox? And will there be nudity in the sex scene?

^ That mailbox is already nude.

I hope they won't make anything significant public before release, because I know I won't be able to resist reading spoilers. It's hard enough getting through the few days between the US and the EU release without spoiling myself completely. I wonder why they can't release their games everywhere at the same time.

nah silfen. He seemed irked to me. He did say if it was up to him we wouldn't get anything new. Methinks you're way too optimistic about Bioware's feelings about its fans. I'm just being realistic . smiles.

[Han Shot First]

Your LI options are going to be between a broodmother, a greased nug, and the Mad Hermit of the Brecilian Forest.

Enjoy!

Nah vexedcanislupuslupus, DG is pissy often enough that it's kinda obvious he wasn't more pissy than usual in that post. Sometimes a post is just a post.

well poopy, he's not always that way. I've seen him in a good mood. Once or twice . rotfl.
I guess I'll have to go back and read that leaked survey. Hope some VA gets gabby on youtube. That happened with one of the FFXIII VA. Some VAs probably have blogs, read them for clues. VAs we know were in previous DAs. Oh take a developer out to lunch or for drinks. rotfl. I'm joking , but it is hard to keep secrets.
