Good day, so during the last couple of days DAI executive producer, Mark Darrah, answered couple of questions on twitter. I decided to post them on forums for the people that could've missed it(All conversation links are posted) :



Q: Gauntles and boots, interchangeable? Return the mabari? What do you most like DA:O? And DA2?
A1: armor (including gauntlets and boots will be different)
A2: mabari will not be a follower bug may appear
A3: both DA:O and DA2 have good points for me

Q: I have a question. Will the DA Keep let me create a personalized history? I'm crossing platforms so importing won't work 4 me
A: indeed it will

--

Q: Amazing! Follow up Q: if I played DAO and DA2 on PC, am I going to enjoy the PlayStation version any less you think?
A: depends on your preferred style of play
https://twitter.com/...560605368360962

--

Q: I have a question if you're still answering: are non-combat skills going to be more important than in DA2?
A: skills work differently in DAI. So yes...

Q: well Alistair be a party member in DAI?If not we'll he make an appearance in the game?
A: not a party member. You'll have to wait and see on the rest.

Q: will there be qunari mages to play as? male or female? also who will be the romance options? will varric be one?
A: yes Qunari mages (male and female) are available.
(Note: He didn't (or I couldn't find) answer to the romance question)
https://twitter.com/...751468132384769

--

Q: I have a question too! Will DA:I have usable crossbows, or only Varric will carry one?
A: not at launch. The talent trees would require too many additional animations
https://twitter.com/...579994243629056

--

(Note: he tweeted " 1. Qunari mages (both male and female) will be available" beforehand)
Q: Does that mean you can only choose a mage as a Qunari or that mages also will be available in addition to warrior & rogue?
A: all classes are available to Qunari
https://twitter.com/...773862897160192

--

(Note: he tweeted " 1. Qunari mages (both male and female) will be available" beforehand)
Q: You mean as the Inquisitor? Or have i breached the 'no more twitter questions' embargo?
A: yes as the Inquisitor
https://twitter.com/...773917343830016

(Note: he tweeted " 1. Qunari mages (both male and female) will be available" beforehand)
Q: How would that work though? The Saarebas have handlers so how would you have a freed Kossith. An unbound Kossith mage ©
A: indeed
https://twitter.com/...774486334308352

--

(Note: he tweeted " 2. Dev Diaries will be up soon. Editing is happening now. No specific date yet" beforehand)
Q: will DA The World of Thedas Band 2 be released before DA:I or after?
A: not sure.
https://twitter.com/...775673825681408

Q: From Polygon: Really? "continue adventuring after the game's main story has finished." Maybe about... pic.twitter.com/aGc67plMWk
A: the game will not end when the main story does
https://twitter.com/...820328537722880

Q: So is it open world ala 'Skyrim' (sorry for the comparison) or more New Game Plus, sir?
A: not new game plus. Though that might happen too
https://twitter.com/...823226747277312

--

Q: You mean it will continue like it did in DAO and DA2. Returning us to a time before the final game events?
A: no, the world continues post story completion
https://twitter.com/...875229145948160

--

(Note: he tweeted " 1. Qunari mages (both male and female) will be available" beforehand)
Q: Have to admit, confused about the use of 'Qunari' here. I got the impression the Inquisitor kind of had to be Tal Vashoth?
A: you are correct. I am using Qunari as a stand in for the race. Its just less confusing.
Well mostly less comfusing
https://twitter.com/...799785680179201

--

Q: Can you tease us with the number of "map regions" there are? In the PAX video there appeared to be 4 or 5
A: I cannot. Many

Q: What will the level cap be in DAI?
A: unknown
https://twitter.com/...864443665166336

I did not fix any typos that were made by original tweeters.

Game continuing after the main story ....I like that. A chance to see how the world has been affected after your actions, maybe.

I like this.  It will make any potential DLC that appears feel less tacked on and maybe more organic/can take place after the game.

Likely it will work like in ME2. You can continue, but there won't be a lot to do if you did all the sidequests before finishing the main story. Having said that, aimless roaming just to enjoy the beautiful landscapes does appeal to me, and it's possible to extend the main story through DLC that way.

Maybe we can go on long horse rides with our love interest and/or the Mabari that may or may not exist.

You're welcome. IMHO, I don't think he wouldve replied to those "after main story playing" questions if he wasn't certain that the feature would make it into the game.

Awww I hope not...I hope it means that certain content only opens up after main story ends, like fable 3 was it? When after you're made ruler you had other things to do.

That would be good, didn't like how in Origins it teleported us back to before the ending for dlc if not done during.

So he answered a question and the fans respond by repeating the same question only wording it differently? Even worse is they were too bone idle lazy to even look up the information that was readily available!!

* How about asking whether or not there will be a cap on how many Inquisitors you can make?
* How about asking whether or not we'll be able to enter the water without slamming face first into an invisible wall before we can stick a single foot, toenail first into the water.
* Or better yet, can we effing jump yet or are we going to resort to shuffling around a box thats knee high and preventing us from going down a corridor?
* What's the level cap this time? 
* Will enemies respawn or remain dead and buried?

Thanks anyway for posting this OP.

So wait ... you're telling me the DA:I Project Lead answered a k-word question without shooting it down, or replying with a different word and an admonition to stop using it? 

He must be a Hardcore Hipster Elitist. Well, he has to be, he's Project Lead.

Darn. I wanted to know the starting level more. Seems he might not answer that (at least yet), too. 

Thanks for giving us some additional info from the horse with the highest mouth. Much appreciated.

I'm volunteering to edit the dev diaries. Also, I can't wait for DAI. I know my Dragon Age disks are around here some where...

If we can continue playing after main story this must mean ... we will be ALIVE. :)
I died in DAO and you all know how ME3 turned out, so yes that makes me happy (even thought I liked both DAO tragic ending and ME3 tragic ending) Still nice to survive something at last.

They're thinking about selling specializations as DLCs, wonder how that would turn out. And thank goodness for post-game access, I was getting annoyed by the constant time travel to pre-ending time with only my house to roam around in.

NG+ would make combat at the start of the game less boring in later playthroughs.

I know I have been wanting something like that as dlc for quite some time, though I'm not really sure that is what Darrah meant by any of his comments, here's hoping. *crossed fingers*

Thanks ProloxBravo, for making a thread. Much appreciated.
