I think one of the devs implied that Descent is one of the longest actually, though whether that was longest as in a dungeon/main story type quest or as in a physical area like the Hinterlands wasn't clear to me.

[R2s Muse]

So, I tried what R2 did with the patch before JoH came out and looked at the updated credits just now (now that the pre-Descent patch has finished downloading)...

Spoiler

still no sign of GE in the DLC credits, but they have changed to include BW Austin staff and a few others. :\ Looking like a "no" at this point.

Ah rats. Thanks for checking! I figured we wouldn't get much, but a voiced line would've been delightful. More signs pointing to post-game story DLC as our best chance then, I guess. 

 

So I should patch today then??

[R2s Muse]

Yeah, a few of you guys like DA2 Cullen so I'm trying! 

yesyesyesyes. thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou.

Yeah, a few of you guys like DA2 Cullen so I'm trying! I personally prefer scruffy Cullen so I'm working on a version with more hair. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh wow. ......

I know. I would speculate that that means either 1. four DLC rather than three as we'd been expecting; 2. two JoH/Descent-sized DLC and a third significantly larger DLC; or 3. the final DLC out sooner than might be expected from extrapolating from the previous two (4 months and change for JOH, 4 months and change for The Descent, maybe a bit less for Final Qunari Fade Solas Thing). Or none of the above! #2 would be my hope. But I don't think there's any a priori reason to have thought that the Austin office's involvement would have affected whether the advisors were in it.

I'm kinda hoping for the four dlc personally, but we'll see, and on the DA2 look...


Gulp... I wish I had a computer that could run this!

Yeah I thought similar about us maybe getting 4 DLC but that does seem unlikely. If the Edmonton team have been working mainly on the qunari/Solas DLC we could get it later this year, hopefully in time for the 1 year anniversary to DAI’s release like they did with ME3 and the Citadel DLC. Though that would put the DLC in competition with Fallout 4 so maybe not…

Quick question. I was looking at pics of Cullen's DA 2 model, and I am correct in that he didn't have the scar then?

No, he didn't. He most likely aquired it between events of DA2 or DAI.

Tho the lack of scar on Cass makes me think that maybe they just couldn't make nice scars back then.

Okay, because I'm getting to a point where it comes up in fic, and just could not remember.

I always though Cass's scars were from what happened at the Temple.

Anyway, thank you!

[Vanalia]

Yeah, I don't want to get my blood pressure up, so no soap box from me. 

 

Anyhoo, 

 

 

I thought that, according to what she said in the scene of "Wicked Grace", Cassandra was not interested in seeing Cullen without clothes? but here she seems to blush and she looks confused   did she change her mind? or was she just acting during that Wicked Grace scene

In the WG game she says she wants to leave before the commander's walk of shame to the barricks . Doesn't want to witness it.

Yes it's what I meant, my sentence was a bit confusing. In that WG scene she doesn't look interested or confused to see him like this, while in the Award video she looks confused and she blushes, etc.

Well, he's not starkers in this scene, so she can look and enjoy the view, lol. She'd seen him from the chest up at the WG game anyway.

[Vanalia]

He was sitting so she couldn't see everything either at the WG. Still, she didn't look confused or anything. I thought she was just very picky or wanted to look distant. She seemed very good at hiding her interest then

No one had scars in DA2; the engine didn't do them. And, there's no canon story on his scar, in case that was the next question.

I think during WG, she's just being snarky, independent of whether she might find him attractive.

 

In the video... cough, I think she's honestly just the female gaze they added to the scene.

As with Cass, I tend to figure he got knocked off his butt in the explosion, depending how closs he was, either that or a parting gift from Kirkwall pre 9:40 post 9:37.

I really wish they'd use Unreal instead, but sigh....

She seems a bit OOC in that Award video, but maybe it's because I don't know that character well enough, as I didn't do her romance. Maybe she has a "squealing fangirl" hidden side (as we could see with her obsession with Varric's book)   so I still wonder if that shirtless Cullen in the video is supposed to be a gift for fangirls, or a way to (kindly) make fun of them, or both. I guess we'll never know...

Probably both. BW doesn't mean it maliciously or even deliberately, and they've addressed it sorta with some other slip ups, like the dev who did a squealing Cullen fangirl impression on one of their sneak peek videos leading up to release. But you know how the saying goes, "laugh and the world laughs with you." It also holds when you're laughing *at* something.

Descent is downloading right now... And I have this severe urge to wonder what the off screen reaction of Cullen is going to be to Caitlin.

You're going into the Deep Roads? Are you mad? (and then probably a great deal of muttering about Cat's sanity)

It's not up yet for me. As much as I want the new dwarven content, I'll probably try to make myself wait a day or so to make sure there are no major technical problems

As of now, been playing for about an hour, no glitches on xbox 1.

It's a very different setup than joh when it comes to things like missions.

Just to keep this Cullen related:

By thursday I should have the first chapter of Come the Inquisitor done, and Sunday Chapter Four of Old Friends.

Chapter 3 First Sacrifice went up last week.

Here's the direct link should anyone want

Being distracted is understandable 

 

Hmnmn... Then maybe I'll really go with nightmare. It's not even my canon lady, so I can make mistakes. 

Lvl27 Knight Enchanter with chance for Walking Fortress... Yeah... I think I can manage.

 

And...

Damn. I'm not prepared for thinking.
