Tere will be no. Has to be disbalance- no party from mages. 5 warriors, 2 rogues, 2 mages (like in DAO) or 4 warriors, 3 rogues and 2 mages. I think secon is better.

 

huh

I hope Dramatic Hands Moustache Guy's stache is available for the CC.

 

Can you imagine the feats the Inq could achieve with that thing?

ok well regardless of all of that I just find it a lot more straightforward to, when I see a mysterious guy who dresses like a mage and read a desription of a mage, assume they are the same dude, instead of bringing formulas and such into the mix

 

and also, from an artist perspective, if he's really a chevalier, they missed the boat

 

but yeah a healthy dose of skepticism is always called for when you're working with fragments of prerelease info and stuff

Give me one good bloody reason for a need for a lack of balance.  There hasn't been an unbalanced party to really speak of since Origins.

 

Awakening:

 

Oghren and Justice = two warriors

 

Nate and Sigrun = 2 rogues

 

Velanna and Anders = 2 mages.

 

DA2

 

Varric and Isabella = 2 rogues.   Sebastian does make 3 rogues, even still, that's only one extra.

 

Tallis would make 4, but she's a temporary character and therefore doesn't count.

 

Carver and Bethany are both gone by the end of Act 1, so I have discounted them.  They won't be a deciding factor with your party make-up throughout most of the game.

 

Merril and Anders = 2 mages.

 

Fenris and Aveline = 2 warriors. 

 

 

 

So, why a need to keep things unbalanced again?  Other than your fixation on warriors?  I'm looking forward to meet DHMG and I'm hoping he's a mage at this point.

Even though he was dlc, Seb technically does still count

 I never discounted him, unlike Tallis, Bethany or Carver.  He counts, but even then, it isn't a huge unbalance in the party.  One extra rogue, which is a far cry from what Ladyofpayne wanted.

 

Edit: Modified my previous post to clarify what I meant.

Sound like our mustached friend much?

 

(snipped the spoilers)

 

I don't see it at all, to be honest. DHMG has scrolls and pouches and stuff - and he's basically wearing robes in the recent bits of concept art, not even light armour.

 

For all that the Masked Empire character you mentioned *can* fight in a variety of styles, his most iconic - and probably most preferred - method is in full plate armour with a sword and shield, which is nothing like how DHMG has been portrayed.

Some people see Baelish, but I see Remus and Sirius Black.

 

I get the feeling i'll like this guy though (regardless of the above).

I had a big long post a few pages back, which rambled and probably made no sense, on how DHMG looks like a painting of a famous French dandy who inspired Oscar Wilde to write Dorian Gray, and after a whole lot of crazy leaps of logic I think it's quite likely that this mage is Dorian from the survey.

My eyes are playing tricks on me. I keep seeing him with a hair piece, but I guess that is his pinky, not a bald spot.

Where has this assumption that we can't have a split 3 warriors/3 rogues/3 mages class party come from? Have the devs said anything like that before? Or are we basing it in only having 2 mages in each prior game?

Yes.

 

And any companion that inspires a thread to hit critical dandy mass is by far the best. Screw this "temper your expectations" bs: DHMG is Dorian and he will be the best companion and there will be lots and lots of awesome fanart featuring his flawless mustache.

I like the fact that most of the companions have unique hair (or lack thereof):

 

- DHMG with fabulous mustache

- Bearded Warden with epic beard

- Solas much bald wow mage

- Cassandra with her short hair (fits her personality just too well in my opinion!)

- Vivienne with shaven head under the Maleficent crown (which I like on her too), quite unique for a female companion before

 

...and of course Varric with his overly manly chest hair.

Gone are the days of your average jock haircuts, boring bobbed styles w/ braids, and straight hair pulled back into simple buns

 

Dragon Age: Inquisition is turning the style dial to 11

Please share.  I blame you for my increasing interest in DHMG, so you might as well stoke the fires :P

I think your interpretation may overcompensating for something, Allan.
