Shame if it's the Evil Mages vs Red Templars. I had hoped the faction choices would look something like this:

Chantry Loyalist Templars - Moderate Mages
Rebel Templars - Radical Mages
Red Templars - Venatori

Where you can either get a L shape allies made up of moderate mages, chantry loyalists and rebels, or 3 in a row like moderates, radicals and Venatori.

Maybe it's that the Rebel Templars later become the Red Templars if we side with the mages, and the red lyrium is only being experimented with at this stage and can be stopped. Likewise, siding with the Templars pushes the Radicals into the arms of the Venatori, making them into a major threat.

This is sort of what I was hoping. I'd honestly be surprised if your choice early on is between two obviously mustache twirling factions, like extreme blood mages vs. red templars. I think we may all be jumping to conclusions based on one image that shows a red templar with samson as THE "templar faction." It could mean templars include red templars, or it could be a mistake or misleading in someway we haven't been told yet. 

 

FWIW, in the Hinterlands areas when we're fighting templars, they're all just called "templars" when you fight them, and no red lyrium necklaces. In contrast, when we saw red templars in the earlier pax demo around the town that starts with a C that I can't remember... those baddies were actually called "red templars." So there still could be a big difference between the two. I think until we play, we won't really know.

 

Don't lose faith that our choices won't matter! That's been their mantra so far in making this game.

Random and OT, but I finally just watched the Gameplay Features and Consequences trailer today and... it's been kinda nagging me for a while, but does anyone else think that the default/preset human ManQuisitor that they've been showing off looks a little like Sheploo? Not exactly, but enough so that they could be brothers. Or really close cousins.

Yeah. It's also been pointed out that he looks a bit like Greg Ellis. I think he may just be intended to look like "hottie white dude" for mass market trailer purposes.

Default human male looks like every generic scruffy white dude in every videogame ever, to be honest. So does broShep. They all look the same.

Seeing this boring-ass every Joe guy in the trailers is such a stark reminder of how lucky we are to get customizable gender/race/species for our heroes in this series. We can do so much better for ourselves than average sameface videogame guy #120957184261437. :P

 

But.. this guy looks like Guy Pierce!  :o

Alright, I admit, he does look like an average white male protagonist. 

 

But there is something about him! I don't know :P

 

I'll probably just use that preset and then alter some stuff.

Well, if we can't be neutral, I may have to give in to the burning urge to play an Assquisitor.  At least now I can say 'Bioware made me do it'! 

 

Finally got to see Frankenstein last night.  I know Danny Boyle is lauded as some kind of genius, but I think he needs to lay off the Pretentious Pills for a while.  Apart from that it was rather good.

So, has anyone else noticed that quite a few of the hair options for females seem to have sideburns?

So according to Mr. Weekes, Cullen is Angel from Buffy! Which means Cullen gets his own 5 game spin-off!

 

Cullen game series confirmed.  :lol:

 

God though, I hope he isn't nearly as broody as Angel was.  <_<

You just know something awful like this will end up being so. Everything is too good to be true right now. We're going to have some terrible surprise or choice to make, aren't we? LOL

Yes. Going off of that same vein, Cullen will lose his soul and try to destroy the world by summoning Acathla, and then we'll have this epic and kinda sexy sword fight, and then RIGHT as we're about to kill him to save the world, the far-fetched and esoteric ritual to get Cullen's soul back will actually work, and then our Inquisitor will say, "Close your eyes..." and then they kiss, and then our Inquisitor will stab him through the gut! Killing him and thereby saving the world! You know, just after he gets his soul back. Right after you kiss him. For the last time. Cause you killed him. 

 

And then there'll be a really sad montage of the Inquisitor going off and leaving forever with aptly chosen Sarah Mclachlan music playing in the background.

 

My two sisters cry every single time they see that episode. I may or may not laugh. I may or may not be a bad person.

I'm hoping for this.

I also think the Hinterlands deliberately is showing us the worst of both sides...

I cried at the series finale when Spike sacrificed himself, and Buffy told him that she loved him, and he said, "No you don't." Ghahhhh! Although Angel dying just as he got his soul back was really sad... (ignore the fact that I laughed!  :ph34r: ) and then the shock of him coming back a season later as well. But their relationship was always doomed. But their love theme (aptly named "Close your eyes" >.>) is really beautiful. It was also my go-to break up/fight song.

You mean you aren't digging the sideburns? :P Perfect match for the facial stubble lol, makes you wonder if we have access to wax strips? lol

I'm not sure I could play an Assquisitor, they've made it sound a lot of fun but I have a feeling it will be pretty hardline and brutal, I'm not good at roleplaying, I think I would struggle to get very far in that playthrough lol. I couldn't even manage a red Hawke without her switching back to purple lol.

 

Our nearest cinema is almost 25miles away, in fact I think it's still called a picture house lol seats about ....10 :D I haven't seen a movie at a cinema in about 15yrs lol Glad you finally got to see it though and that you enjoyed it :).

Lol! I think Cullen will be direct & short, maybe get a little crabbit sometimes if you do something he disapproves of but I don't think he will brood, thankfully.

I only saw the really early Buffy seasons, up until Willow went a tad overboard, that was probably a few seasons ago lol. I loved Angel but Spike was my guy! (You would never guess that I'm just not a tv/movie person lol)

Nope, not really, lol. I mean, they don't even look like loose bits of hair that sit in front of the ears, they look like facial hair, like a mans sideburns. *shrugs*
