The architecture of these 2 bridges is different: one is curved, the other is straight. Gates on them look different too. Of course, it could be different concept arts of the same place. But I don't think so.

 

Yeah, the concept art is gonna changed constantly. I'd say i'm  99% sure that it's depicting our Skyhold.

Y'know what else that concept art could be depicting? The moments after the veil ripped open and our Inquisitor steps out. That could be Cassandra ordering her soldiers forward and the tall one in the back might be the Inquisitor being led with them to safety ready for interrogation or something? Ah f*ck knows.

Those were dragon bones, right? 

Yep. (I just finished a play through of this a few days ago, so it's fresh. *grin*) It's "where dragons went to die" I think one of the loading screens said.

I'm giggling a little right now, because I've just noticed that my f!Hawke in DAII ending cartoons looks like DAI Cullen, and suddenly it hit me: OMG, Hawke was a fictional character, and Cullen was the real Champion! But Varric thought Cullen wasn't crazy enough, so he created this Hawke lady  :lol:

Wouldn't it be fun if those were the bones of that dragon we killed in DA:O if you didn't taint the ashes with dragon blood? (of course, they'd have to not be there if you didn't kill it, lol)

Think I'd be so proud of my warden.  It took me so long to kill the damn thing, and I had it on easy!  

 

Anyways,  I'm really looking forward to learning some more at E3.  Surely Mike wouldn't tease us like that unless they're going to give us even an itty-bitty bit of info on him?  (Hopeful face)

It does make me wonder if Cullen will be one of the first characters they'll give us more info on now that they've scrapped follower friday for something "better". One of the devs said that we'll start to see them in the coming weeks, so presumably after E3.

Yeah, it was just a visually stunning image from Witch Hunt, tho. What if it has something to do with the Mother and Morrigan's eluvian? Prob not. LOL

Hopefully, especially with him and Cassandra as the first LIs to be announced.  As much as I can't wait to learn more about Cullen (though a part of me would rather just wait until the game to learn more about him...just a tiny part  :P ) I really want to know more about the other characters from the trailer, especially the Grey Warden.  I can just see Bioware killing him off before the end of the game, especially with his age.  

 

I think if they were going to give us more on Cullen, they'd probably reveal more about the other NPCs.  That scribe girl for example, we have had incredibly little about her other than she's gonna be a total fangirl for the Inquisitor.

LOL I always thought that was an unwinnable battle, so I never succeeded. Like with SerCauthrien. I sucked at DA:O. LOL

Looking at the Cosplay pics of Jess and Holly as Morrigan and Inquisitor... They had Sera with them... Presumably with much better costume detail than we've seen in the War Table image. So I was thinking maybe Sera's character sheet thingie might be next?

Well Cullen would definitely be "something better"! :D

The other thing I keep looking in that battle pic at is the glowy spot at the top of the concept art, where the green transporter beam from heaven comes down. The dark curvy things remind a little of the Dragon Bone wastes at the end of Awakenings.

It does look like a rib cage but it's a bit jagged. And the other patch of jaggedy goodness down front of that makes me wonder if we're seeing patches of red lyrium popping up through the ground... Maybe around veil tears.

"Therinfal Redoubt." I keep reading that as "Theirin Fall" as in Alistair Theirin, and it's kinda disturbing. I don't know if it's intentional obfuscation, if they ran out of names, or what, but I can't read it without wincing.

 

The other thing I think when I see those shots is, "Hot damn, I hope they release a toolset eventually. Look at all that vegetation!" That was one of the biggest drawbacks of the Electron Engine (Neverwinter Nights 2), and one of the reasons I didn't really embrace modding it the way I'm digging into DA. The engine limitations were so severe! If you put too many kinds of trees in an area, you got massive performance hits, and that much swaying grass would drop the FPS to 5 or so. DAO is a little more forgiving, so it's more fun to make levels, but it doesn't have that degree of realism.

 

TL;DR: Oooh, pretty!

Yeah, I wouldn't want to know too much. Ideally I'd like a couple of close up pics of his face and a quick blurb about his personality and the experiences he'd had in the previous two games. Something like:

 

"Cullen *insert Surname and/or title if he has one* has both seen and experienced more hardship over the past decade than most men his age. Once stationed in Ferelden he was one of the few surviving Templar's of the blood mage attack on Kinloch Hold where he was tortured for weeks/months until the Hero of Ferelden rescued him and put an end to the madness. Despite rumours and fabrications to the contrary, Cullen went on to spend the next 7+ years in Kirkwall serving under Knight Commander Meredith, eventually aiding the Champion of Kirkwall to slay her in combat... to this day the story surrounding Meredith's death is unclear, some say she went mad, other suggest Cullen and the Champion had sought to usurp her. Whatever the truth, Cullen refuses to talk about it. *Insert something small about his general personality, like his strength or will or whatever and a quick sentence about being the leader of his militant faction*"

I'd love that. I really want a good look of her face. And her voice actress, (my money is still on Lacey Chabert, AKA Gretchen Wieners).

Cameron once said that there was a voice actor in DAI that sounded like me, I've been hoping that it's Sera since it sounds like she's gonna be a bit mouthy, LOL!

Anything that can keep us speculating for the next 3 months ^.^ I'm still holding out for a trailer with a Greg Ellis voice over (or anything with Greg Ellis in it) at some point before the release.  It'd be so cool just to see him talk about the fact he didn't realise Cullen had so many fans until April this year haha  :D also just to explain a bit about Cullen.  If they did do this I could just imagine Jessica or someone just telling him to stop behind the camera before he gives away too much detail XD

This would be the perfect, succinct way to introduce him.

As much as I say I want to know everything, I do want to go in with a few questions, and I think Lola's method would be brilliant for that :)
I'd like a simple character entry for each companion and advisor. A brief overview of who we are to expect them to be as people.
Preferably accompanied by awesome screenshots.

And perhaps that would be something he'd eventually talk to our Inquisitor about, once we've got to know him well enough.
