Ah, man I just multiquoted so many people while I was catching up that it became a tad too much. Therefore the quick version now:
Yeah. And they said a tool kit would not be released. And considering how long it took for that ME3 mod to be made.
All we can do is hope for ta oolkit will be released.
From the Q & A:
"Q: Will there be a toolset for DAI released? It was sorely missed for DA 2! Also heard that Frostbite isn't moddable, can you confirm or deny?
A: There will not be a toolset at release. We will continue to explore options, but there are -significant- challenges. - Laidlaw"
Maybe not all hope is lost. I really try to learn more about modding at the moment but the DAO is a bit outdated. I would really love a new toolset. I hope they can make it work.
Here's some random Cullen stuff... Am I the only one who thought he looked like Spike from Buffy in 2? Also, I'm trying to think of who he reminds me of now. I know I have seen this face somewhere, other than my dreams, before. I just can't put my finger on it.
No, I can't see the resemblance with Spike. However, before Cullen was officially announced I thought he looked a bit like the guy who plays David on Once Upon A time., Josh Dallas.
Would have worked for a younger Cullen.
I went totally spoiler free in DAO, got dumped with a fem Cousland (yeah yeah I know I suck). I called my sister having an absolute cow and she told me I could be queen with a Cousland. So I restarted, made her queen, then told Morrigan to jump off a cliff with the DR.
Then he died. After that one I almost quit playing, luckily my sister was there to encourage me to try again (and do the DR).
I'm so silly now like I spoil the crap out of myself with every game ever since. I will be behind most with DAI since I'll be in week 3 of fall term, and I'm taking 16 credits so not much time for gaming. I will be spoiling myself on Cullens romance.
LOL. My experience was a bit different but at the same time also somehow similar. I went in spoiler free and romanced Alistair. I turnd Morrigan's offer of the Dark Ritual down because my warden didn't entirely trust her (and neither did I). When it came to the final battle against the archdemon, it was just my warden and Alistair, of course, fighting shoulder to shoulder. AND GUESS WHAT HAPPENED? Right! I totally cheated, loaded a much older save game and decided to go through with the DR.
Eric is teasing about his spectacular return tomorrow:

You all are invited!
YEAH! Party is just what this thread needs. And I love shortbread.
It seems that yesterday all hell went lose and the dams collapsed, flooding us with news. And here I was, thinking that I could skip the event, since I assumed they would mostly keep to standard answers, we all know by know. Boy, was I wrong? Still recuperating, especially that I spent last few hours trying to catch up.
Anyway, still gutted about Cullen being straight. One of the reasons why I love this thread is that it's always buzzing with variety of fans, bringing different perspectives, creativity and fun. I can understand reasons behind withdrawing from the thread when being massively disappointed, still I will miss those guys and I hope they will pop in every now and again.
Bitter-sweet feeling at this moment, with the excitement of finally finding out about
ScribblesJosephine. She's absolutely gorgeous and we finally know her name. And we have 8 LIs. And we know the voice actors for our Inquisitors. I must admit I am very curious about Jon Curry and whether I will hear a bit of Zev in his voice.
Oh, and Vamp having a little sprogglet! All the feels.
I feel exactly the same. It's so sad that people are leaving because of this reveal. I can understand it though. But I cross my fingers that some of them will return because I just love this thread so much with everyone in it. People here are nice, polite and so creative and I don't want to lose folks. At the same time I'm excited about some of the stuff that the developers talked about during the Q & A.
Ooo are you a Josephine fan too? She is absolutely gorgeous! And I loved the Q&A for her. I didn't think she would be my cup of tea but I have been thoroughly swayed
Count me in as well. I think my Inquisitor will probably be listening more to her than to Cullen. I always prefere the diplomatic approach. And the interview was great.
Hold the phone! I missed this one. Gah. Ser Michel romance? Yes please!
Oooh, Ser Michel! 
But I think it might be a girl. Just have a feeling it is.

That reminds me of when I was in EB, buying a couple of games. The girl at the counter asked my mum, who was waiting for me, if the money was actually mine or hers, and I was just all "...You do realise there's a huge probability I'm older than you y/y?"
@ladyinsanity: If I get one more "the Inquisitor is the old god baby" comment on my vids I SWEAR I WILL TURN THIS INQUISITION AROUND
There's a good thread on the forums now asking you list the companions you're most excited for and I'd love to hear all your opinions!
Long post so it's in spoiler tags.
Spoiler
My favorites so far:
Cullen - I`ve wanted to see this character growth and development for years! And every piece of information that comes out just makes me more excited about him!
Solas - I`m intrigued by the Fade expert thing.
Sera - She sounds like a fun character to have around.
Josephine - I just love that she`s not a warrior but a "normal" and inteligent person who uses diplomacy as a weapon.
Iron Bull - I like that he`s not the usual qunari.
Varric - He was my Hawke best friend lol, he was one of my favorite companions in DA2 so i´m just glad to see him again.

Ooh Josh Dallas is a good one. I love him. Thinking of him as Falandrel, I can see what you are talking about.

My partner took me to a leaving party for one of his work colleagues, and partway through the evening, the colleague's daughter stormed over and said "I can't believe you're letting her drink and not me!"
I was stunned... she was fourteen and I was 21 and she wouldn't believe it either *sigh*

One thing I just realised, none of the revealed LIs have a French accent, (apart from maybe Cassandra, but her VA said she purposefully gave her an ambiguously mixed accent, iirc), despite Orlais being a massive part of this game. That seems weird to me.
I'm glad they don't. I don't know if accents in previous games were fake or real, but I do know that they were making my ears bleed most of the time Except Leliana's. But Marjolaine... 
Edit, wait, let me record that part where Greg Ellis is faking Orlesian accent, let's laugh! 
I've got a request. Since there will be more news today, could someone collect them and pm me, please? I will be away for my traditional Tuesday movie night with friends. Because of the football game yesterday, we moved the movie night to Wednesday. And this thread will probably explode (again 
). No way I can catch up with 40 pages tomorrow. LOL.

Leliana's was the only real French accent, I believe. Oh! And Riordan's.

Riordan's... (sigh).
I really hope that one day, they let him voice a follower. I would swoon from here to Antiva.
I'm not sure if anyone else has thought about this, but what if one of the two race gated LIs is actually Cullen? And that he couldn't be romanced by human Inquisitor because they are related by blood in some way?
The thought occurred to me since David Gaider once said very teasingly something along the lines "So that's Cullen's full/last name". To me it sounds like there was something surprising in his last name - and that it was important enough to be tweeted about. At first I thought that he might be King Maric and Fiona's son but yesterday it was confirmed that Alistair is their son so that trashed it.
Another reason why I considered this was because yesterday in the Q/A one of the developers said that two of the romances would be race restricted because of "story reasons" - not personal race preference reasons. The devs might just have said story reasons just because no better wording occurred to them atm but yeah.
I know this doesn't sound very solid speculation but wanted to say it anyway.

I can not like this enough.

I was actually wondering if hers was real!
I think I'm the only one that has no problem with her voice.

We've talked about this a little bit, and it seems everyone except me thinks this would be the worst idea ever. Me? I'm cackling about how awesome a story that could be. But the main problem is, well, how related would Cullen be to the Trevelyan family, and how would they deal with that in the game. It almost feels like that would have to be a large part of the Inquisitor and Cullen's interactions.
I'm still pulling for Cullen being Goldanna's long-lost brother, and another illegitimate Therin.

Most players use humans and never anything else, though. In Origins the proportion was something like 80% human.
If fans made a new game and couldn't romance Cullen with a female human, they'd react with the fury of a thousand suns. I just can't see a situation where the developers would do this - it's shooting themselves in the foot.
It's possible, but so, so, so unlikely, I think.
