I'm surprised they never forcibly had our mabari get killed in the previous games!

well you *could* kill it if you  were a mage,  at ostagar that way  you wouldn't have him appear later in the game

What are those tweets about Cullen all about? Any idea?

Aidan Scalan: "Just has a difference of opinion about an aspect of #DAI design with @Mike_Laidlaw. It was settled by Cullen."

I'm not sure if they mean literally Cullen, or that dev they nicknamed Cullen for some in-joke reason. Then there's this:

Sebastian Hanlon: "@aidanscanlan @Mike_Laidlaw Cullen’s never going to be pretty enough to go to the prom.

Wait, was that not the issue?"

... Now I'm paranoid that they've seen some of us ragging on Cullen's new physical appearance, lol!

Probably hard to avoid the last thing.  :? I'd surprised if they didn't know.

Well, if they make improvements to his top lip and make his hair a little darker blonde then that's a bonus, I guess!

To be fair, I'm gonna romance him regardless so it doesn't really matter. It would just be nice to see him looking a little more like his DA2 counterpart like Cassandra and Varric do.

I dunno. TBH, I think he looks as much like his DA2 counterpart as Varric and Cassandra do. I think the latter have just grown on us, as will this iteration of Cullen. I was shocked by how different Cass and Varric looked from DA2. So I've been expecting this with Cullen. :shrug: Different, but still awesome.  ^_^

This is how I feel about it too. And I have faith that when we see more and better shots of him, people will be more like, "Oh, there he is." :)

Yup I think it's hard to say yet how Cullen will look in the actual game since he's so small and unsharp in the picture and that's just one scene. He looks very different in the concept art than there too. I think we just have to wait for more clear pictures of him to be sure how he's going to look :)

You're right. Plus I think once he starts talking and GE's voice comes out it will be just fine. We'll all be talking about how much we love new!Cullen.

To be honest from the small glimpse we had I like his new model, he looks rather imposing.Besides he's pretty much how I expected him to look on frostbite in the first place.

Although,I'll have to emphasize that the image itself is not ideal when it comes to lighting,shadows and angle.These three factors play a major role  in a picture,for the reason that they highlight some parts of the face while contouring others.

To what I excepted his hair is little too light and not wavy enough... idk about face since the picture is too small. I was just suprised about certain features that lacked in the war room shot that he has had in previous games. Since it's so small and just one pic I don't think it's sure that he will look exactly like that in DAI. However if that's his new looks it's okay to me, he looks little different but still really handsome. As long as his face isn't bloated like Zevs and Alistair's in DA2 I'm happy XD

I was thinking, doesn't it seem weird that Cullen's singing in DAI? Like, we've been going on about that idea in the thread(s) for years, but I never thought for a second that they'd include something like that, let alone be aware that GE could even sing... although I suppose it's in his resume.

I dunno, I can't help but think that they're trolling us on this one, lol.

 

A little late on this but... One of GE's last tweets on his singing (@Greg Ellis ‏@ellisgreg Apr 28
@AbilityDrain In the game. Soft, moving, heartfelt, stirring singing I tell you... #ivesaidWAYtoomuch
) made me feel like there was a hint of sarcasm in the way he said, "heartfelt, stirring singing I tell you..."

 

Would BioWare even want him to be so upfront as to what to expect from Cullen? I'm 50% sure BioWare/GE are trolling with us in the tone that Cullen sings in. At the very least, this makes me think it'll be some drunken song with Iron Bill or someone and not a funeral-type of situation- I just can't see GE trolling us to THAT degree.

Still, I have hope it'll be a soft, sweet song for our Inquisitor's ears only. :)
Take heart, my fellow Cullenite sister!

I dunno. I honestly don't think GE knows enough about the game or our expectations to troll us. If anything I imagine he'd exaggerate from his enthusiasm, like with the raunchy comments. Or his "companionship" comment. Or his quickly deleted booth pic from 2012. The way he set up the singing reveal, it really seemed to me that that was the one thing he was allowed to tell us.

If that's the case, I definitely hope you're right. Trust me, I would much rather not be trolled than to be right, hahaha.

Who knows, after we play Inquisition for the first time, BioWare's forum might break because we'll all have fallen in love with Cullen/GE, and are nonstop thanking BioWare and Gaider for what they've done with the Cullen+Inquisitor romance. :D
Here's hoping!

Yeah, hard to say. I guess my gut feeling is that, for whatever BW thinks about the Cullenites, our enthusiasm is a ready-made marketing opportunity for them. I mean, that's really what the whole cullenparty thingie turned into, complete with community manager oversight. I can't see them using it to spread misinformation. I mean... sure, they could be frakking with us... and they do, but it would surprise me if this was one of those times, you know? 

 

And, as always, time will tell!  ^_^

Alright, playing catch up here.

 

 

Tell me about it.   :unsure:

 

The upside, at least kittens and puppies have a higher chance of adoption (except poor black colored ones...) because "b'awww". Everyone always wants a puppy or kitten. See a lot of people then bring them back because, ohmygosh, they grow up and aren't small and fuzzy forever. 

Or a lot of breeders bringing them in because people who were so sure they'd take one, well, changed their minds. Now they don't have the room/time to keep taking care of them.   :?

 

I suppose I should mention that while I never volunteered at the local animal shelters (I'll say one of the highest kill rates and leave it at that), I do volunteer at a no-kill shelter. Also grew up seeing the result of what happens when people get a male and female cat and decide they don't want to pay the money to get them spayed/neutered.

 

Sorry if I seem a bit bitter, it is something that I am very passionate about.   :unsure:

I actually walked into a shelter wanting a gray female kitten and walked out with a black 8y/o male cat. 

His name is Scout. He's about 11 now

This is brilliant. Can I use it for my signature?

Personally,I don't really care what he sings in the game as long as he sings!GE has a beautiful voice and the opportunity to hear him sing, in one of my favourite games as one of my favourite characters is always welcomed.

I interpreted it as Cullen being used as an example to solve some unrelated thing. Like, "We can't have Alistair show up in an outfit made entirely of feathers! Only crazy mages wear feathers!" "Actually, Cullen wears a ****-ton of feathers now! It's very in for ex-templars in 9.40 Dragon." "Oh, cool then! Let's go have a beer."

 

EDIT: Also, what was the "dev nicknamed Cullen" story?

 

DOUBLE EDIT: Dergh, now I understand, you're talking about the prom comment, not the whole conversation. I thought the problem (for those of us who have one) was that he's too pretty to go to the prom...

They changed Anders' face at least once before the release of DAII. He had a different model in the demo. So maybe they are still tweaking some characters? Which I totally approve of, because Cullen in the trailer looked like a prince charming instead of himself. Not saying it's bad, but I'd prefer him to be recognizable. And older. He looks much younger than me (although he kind of must be older), and I feel like pouncing on him must be illegal.

Hmm,I'm not sure about the feather part,still looks like fur to me.  :?

Although It could be feathers seem to be quite popular trend in Ferelden(Morrigan,Anders,Flemeth)...

I agree that varric, cassandra and cullen look off. Varric's appearance doesn't bother me, but Cass and Cullen are kind of cringe worthy IMO. Cass looks excessively masculine and angry, while Cullen appears kinda milktoasty (timid and mealy).
Morrigan too has seen some tough times apparently.
Poor Cullen. Three major plastic surgeries. DA2 was his best.

Lelianna on the other hand seems to look great.
