this is probably the nashshin marshes in orlais:

Tervinter flags in room. Could be vidathori (sense they used tervinter symbols)

the dwarves are near the surface. There is sunlight:

Nice finds :)
What excited me the most though was the Orlesian ball we saw a little of.

 

EDIT: I also noticed a statue in the far right above during the shot of the Dwarven place. My deduction skills have led me to nothing though. Perhaps it's a Paragon Branka statue?

Great finds again Ericander!

 

Well, there was the voice at the beginning. And all I kept thinking was "Who is speaking to me!?" Could it possibly be a new important NPC? Or the Male Human Inquisitor's voice himself?

 

Also, as LittleBird Said; The Ball!!!

And then the new enemies, and there is a mention of Giants (eating bears) on the Blog post.

So this big ugly, is he a Giant?

I don't think the table room is RT base. There are serpent stendards in the room.

Someone said that room has Tevinter banners in it.

 

EDIT: In one of the Fade shots you can see a little boat.

There was also sunlight in Cadash Thaig. It doesn't have to be on the surface to have that.

Think that'd be a troll. Looks a bit small to be called a giant.

Also, in the shot where the hunter shoots a deer: look at the rock behind the deer. Does that not look like a dwarven statue?

The banners is the "Red Templar base" are reminiscent of the crest of Tevinter found in World of Thedas. Maybe the Red Templars take the war directly to the Imperium (the center of magocracy), given that the Red Lyrium used by Meredith strengthened her conviction that magic is a cancer and must be purified.

Good work op, I have somethings to add.

Looks like this is the bald elf due to his clothing, ears and he seems like he does have some hair or did have some.

A better look at the statue and the areas around it, there's a tower or something back further could be the statue base, yeah it seems to be the statue and there's building's at the bottom.

lT7b8Nfl.jpg

A fortress or something, I believe we saw something like this before in concepts.

KnJV2a7l.jpg

This is most likely Halamshiral

AGnx3s7l.jpg

Not sure what this area is there's bridge and some spires

d7kjm1Nl.jpg

There's some flags in the background but I can't make it out due to this being a cell phone.

HCUjS3kl.jpg

Just for future reference there's a dragon in this area, it'll make it easier to hunt it.

Also as thelittle bird pointed out there's a boat in the fade.

There's also flowing water, I remember one conversation I had awhile back where people said it wasn't possible or something like that when we weretalking about the fade and some concepts in a thread.

Yay for new thread, and excuse me while I try to contain my excitement! *flails, gasps, faints*

I've saved the biggest one for last:

the male elf mage: COMPANION CONFIRMED

 

Yay, the fade bridge!!!! I hope the final version of the area has as much "mood" as the concept art! What I really like is that Frostbite 3 finally allows for the concept arts to be directly translated into the final game. It makes me so happy for the artists, as that was something they had complained about in the past two games.

 

tumblr_n2117nzUKO1tug0kzo1_500.png

tumblr_n211bzde5y1tug0kzo1_100.png

I'm pretty sure the symbol on those flags is the Templar insignia. What's interesting is that it's the skyward version from DAO, rather than the upside-down version from DA2. Considering the Fereldan statues, maybe the insignia is different for Templars of each nation? Or is it a retcon again?

 

The area that you say is Nahashin Marshes is IMO the prettiest area they've shown yet!!! New engine so goooood!

 

That lil' creature looks like a cross between a chihuahua, a raccoon and a fox!

 

Bald Mage confirmed, finally!!! I wonder if they'll reveal Bald Mage, Blonde Elf and Grey Warden sometime soon. Probably not, but still!

 

(Edit: I managed to look away from Bald Elf long enough to notice that Cassandra has a really silly out-of-character running animation (which looks the same as Vivienne's running animation from demo). Hope it doesn't stay, because I'll be very disappointed otherwise. The upside, however is that she has her sword sheathed and buckled against her hip now, rather than her back!!!!!)

 

 

The banners is the "Red Templar base" are reminiscent of the crest of Tevinter found in World of Thedas. Maybe the Red Templars take the war directly to the Imperium (the center of magocracy), given that the Red Lyrium used by Meredith strengthened her conviction that magic is a cancer and must be purified.

 

Mike Laidlaw confirmed a while ago that we won't be going to Tevinter in DA:I, but that they do have a big role in the game.

 

 

And then the new enemies, and there is a mention of Giants (eating bears) on the Blog post.

The visual design of that... thing... isn't very impressive. Hope at least its gameplay is good.

 

 

 

I'll try and take some high quality screenshots for you guys after I've rewatched the vid for a few hours!

Totally unimportant to the game, but it looks like a fennec fox. fennec-fox-morocco_68263_990x742.jpg

They have the impressive ability to be so adorable, it makes you kind of want to puke.

Pretty sure this is a Chantry. Could be the Grand Cathedral?!!

The Tevinter looking flags in red.
Odd looking stature in yellow. It looks like two arms almost holding a sword facing downwards as if to stab someone.
And in green, a red lyrium crystal thing?

I was wondering, isn't that Golden City (aka Black City).

It's true! The Tevinter flag! With so much red, I supposed it was the Red Templars' castle.

 

If that statue is actually holding a sword, maybe it's Hessarian, the Archon who mercifully killed Andraste and converted to her religion.

Shots of the Fade appear to show they've redesigned it.

 

Instead of looking like the physical world smudged over with blurry gauze, it now looks like a more greenish-looking world with eerie structures and topsy-turvy physics (reminds me of the greenish feel of the Matrix in some ways). 

 

I approve.  :) Get rid of the whooshing background noises, and I might look forward to spending time there (which I'm guessing we will, if closing any veil tears require us working on them from the 'other' side.)

It looks more like the Fade we know from Connor's quest in Origins. But then more.... grounded. Not just floating islands and what not.

Really digging the new look.

I am so unbelievably thrilled to see the blur gone. At least for now. That effect always gave me a headache during Broken Tower. Plus, the floating island structures and odd geometries give it a sense of otherworldliness that was missing from previous incarnations. I like it a lot.

 

I also find it interesting that the ray of green light seen at 01:43 looks very similar to the Chantry explosion in DA2. Could be a case of visuals being reused, or perhaps there's a similarity there in the magic being used.

Awesome additional finds everyone!

 

I added some of them to the main post, and brightened them as well.
