Ive acknowledged that in the OP by saying those were my reasons for thinking it isnt accurate to what we will actually get

 

And I certainly wasn't addressing you, but the meriad fans who have chosen to take it as gospel, both here and elsewhere.

 

Naturally I cannot speak for the person I quoted.

It would be nice to have another female, we only know about Cass, Viv and Sera atm, but I am hoping there is another female tucked away somewhere that we just haven't seen any footage of. A female dwarf or qunari would be a very welcome addition.

DA2 has 2 elves: Merill and Fenris. 1 Dwarf: Varric. The rest is humans: Carver, Bethany, Aveline, Isabela, Anders, Sebastian, Hawke. Asides from determinant gender characters like Hawke and the sibling. We have 3 females, and 4 males. I don't think diversity is a good way to determine the nature of our companions.

There is this female elf that looks interesting and shows up a few times in different concepts but she's a rogue, with Sera already being both an elf and rogue, i dont think she'll be in the game. One explanation could be that this is Sera before some redesign

I personally prefer this design over the one we see, it stands out much better than just blonde long hair

That pink elf girl is sexy. She first appeared in DA2 concept art. I wonder if she is an older concept of Sera.

She appeared in DA2 concept art. I think she's just a recurring placeholder character.

As for the 6:3 ratio, I'm becoming increasingly convinced the DLC character will be a woman, and since I rarely play as a male character, for me it'll seem more 6:5/6:4. Throw in a bunch of major female characters like Celene and Morrigan, and I really won't notice to be honest.

Yeah, this is a good point.  You could end up with the same kind of ratio with a male mage Hawke.  There would be 6 guys (Hawke, Carver, Varric, Anders, Fenris, and Sebastian) and only 3 ladies (Aveline, Merrill, and Isabela).

 

But if you played as a female warrior/rogue Hawke, it would be 4 guys (Varric, Anders, Fenris, and Sebastian) and 5 ladies (Hawke, Bethany, Aveline, Merrill, and Isabela).  Hawke's gender and class really affected the ratio in DA 2.

 

That makes me wonder if we will have a Carver/Bethany style character that is affected by your gender and/or class.  Or even a Kaidan/Ashley style character where a plot point you encounter causes you have to pick one or the other.  Since we are missing confirmation on a third of companions, there's plenty of room for this type of character to be in the game.

I think the fan art should be removed from the OP because it gives the impression that it has anything to do with the game whatsoever. You might as well have posted a fan art of Alistair and the Warden kissing before the setting sun or something. 

 

However, if you're going to leave it up there, you should provide a link to the artist's website; never post uncredited artwork! :(

Yeah, that's plagiarism. The OP should also change the thread title.

You're right i should supply a link thank you, but this isnt based on a fans imagination, it's based off of biowares concept pieces, so far it has shown to be accurate so i see no problem in using it for speculation

Why should i change the title?

It's not OFFICIAL concept art. Your title is vague and misleading.

No it isnt, i never said it was OFFICIAL in any way. All it is, is a collection of characters found in biowares official concept arts, so i dont see the problem either way. If you were misled its kind of your own fault.

Really, man? The title says "concept art," instead of "fan art." That's what the picture is. And you didn't provide a link to the artist originally.

Im not seeing the problem, fan art implies that it was a product of a fans imagination, concept art implies that it is accurate to the actual product which this piece does since all it is, is the characters from official art pieces put into one piece of artwork. No one else is having an issue with this and i dont get why you brought up that originally didnt credit the artist since i admitted to forgetting and immediately fixed that. You're making this a problem when it doesnt have to be

Speculative fan art does NOT reflect the official, final product. That's all I'm saying.

Its not speculative if its just a collection of official concept pieces, ive said that three times.

It's speculation until we have confirmation that those nine will be our companions in DAI.

 

Show me where that confirmation has occurred and I'll personally apologize to you (even though my complaint is completely on-topic, so far as it relates to analyzing the picture in your OP). In fact, I'll even apologize LATER if all nine of these characters end up being our companions.

 

We've literally seen about a dozen potential companions. And only three have been confirmed.

You're not understanding my point. Every single character in the piece i posted has been in an official bioware concept piece, whether they end up being the actual companions doesnt matter when determining if this is speculation because all it is, is showing a collection of characters that have been shown before by the devs themselves. Thats not speculation, speculation implies the formation of an idea without proof, this is the formation of an idea based on plenty of support. Since 4 characters now have been confirmed as companions which could have been seen months before in several pieces of concept art, the very same pieces that this art has gotten its information from, you can say that this is accurate to an extent. We wont know the extent until the games release.

Alright my dears, let's not derail too hard.

 

On a lighter note, I really hope we get 3 mages.

There's no in-game evidence that Cullen, Iron Bull (who is always alone in concept art), or Spear Dude are companions.
