So Sera dies.
Ok.
I don't think it's a simple up or down thing. I imagine personal choices affect who, if anyone, dies.

I'm guessing other people have mentioned but at the end of the demo it seemed the Inquisitor was stuck between going to help Leliana after she got shot, and doing the 'spell' that Dorian wanted her to do? Do I smell a moral choice?
I'm confused about the mages, tough.
Earlier in the demo, they claimed the mages and Templars fighting over Redcliff had broken from the Chantry. However, when we reach Redcliff castle, it's a Tevinter Magister we have to kill.
So, what gives? Are the Tevinters supporting the mage rebellion? Did things change from the beginning of the demo to the end? Or what that a mistake?
It's later in the game, I think. You could see Redcliff castle still intact in the distance at the beginning of the video.
Eh, wouldn't call it a corpse. She is probably just knocked out. That would be kinda cheap having half od your squad die like that. A bit intriguing in a way, but doubt that is the case.
So yeah, same footage but a more thorough view on it. Hopefully tomorrow adds something more new.
naw dude. She's dead.
You don't get "knocked out" in dragon age unless you're zevran.
i so like it when people jump to conclusions..sera might just be uncounscious..there might be a way to prevent all this...wait for the game release people....
I'm loving this demo. The more tactical combat, the environments, the companions, and qunari feminq are all just what I've wanted. I can not wait until this game comes out.
Probably akin to the suicide mission in ME, maybe you actually have to think about who you bring with you to critical missions this time around, or they die.
hope not
I hate reloading, and I always forget to save often...
I'm curious about that, what does it mean "shared"?
I suppose it means that, for instance, if both Haste (which is a Mage ability) and Final Blow (which is a Warrior ability) both spend Focus and you have your Warrior use Final Blow, your mage won't be able to use Haste unless you have enough Focus to support both abilities.

I wonder if maybe it also might be building off the cross-class-combo thing they tried in DA2 and really did in ME3.
Something to that effect.

I'm sure there'd be more to that scene if you were sending dudes to go die. There was a cut like every 10 seconds in that demo so I'm sure there is a lot we didn't see.
Or drakes!
You make me happy because it could very well be Drakes!
Damn! Missed the stream. I thought it was at 6:30.

I'm not sure I care for this. I think it depends on how limited it is and how many abilities are tied to it. I mean, are they separate from other abilities? Do we only get basic abilities, and the really cool ones can only be used once in a while?
One thing I always loved about Dragon Age was that we could cast Firestorm or Blizzard or whatever and were only limited by cooldowns and mana reserves (and whatever else for the other classes). I don't want to be too limited. It reminds me of 4e D&D, where one of the coolest spells (imo)--Sleep--was usable ONLY once per day, and it would miss half the time.
I remember talking to them at the Edmonton Expo and they brought up how they looked at "tactical" combat from XCOM. If thats how they model the "super tactical" style of play that'd be really cool
XCOM, eh? That most certainly is not a bad thing.
Well asides from the permadeath. That part not so much. Other than that, the combat should be pretty tight.
That trailer's events escalated quickly.
The Female Qunari looks like Arl Howe.
Dammit I step away from the stream for 10 minutes because the doorbell rings and I miss all the good parts, especially the parts about Dorian.
He did. He actually said right as her corpse hit the floor..."You can see she(Leliana) isnt the only one giving you more time at ANY cost..."
So is DA now like Fire Emblem or something where your party members die a perma-death and you have to reload your saves if you don't want to lose them?
crap, i was playing poker and i missed it, was it recorded?
EDIT: also, if someone must die in that instance Cole and Blackwall are totally getting drafted
Can someone post the video link of iGN. Or was it the exact same footage?

No, they said in the first livestream that it was possibly get as few as having only one companion with you by the end of the game if they others left you due to being really pissed.
If people could die permanently in standard combat would would be able to reach zero companions almost immediately. And as the companions has always been one of Bioware games's strongest sides it would be extremely counter-intuitive to do something like that. And lastly this happened in a cutscene, not gameplay.
Besides, we don't know the circumstances of what was going and casually killing off a full companion is not BW's style at all. More likely Sera was wounded and knocked unconscious.

It was the same footage, but they talked about different things. Don't have a link, sorry.
There's no way any companion is actually killed off screen like that, with their corpse just thrown out almost like an afterthought with no focus on them whatsoever. Seriously, do you think any one of the companions would be killed in a scene where you can literally blink and miss it? Even Mhairi's death was more dramatic.
So when exactly is the full trailer coming out? Someone said it'd come at the end of E3, but is that the end of E3 today, or like on Thursday?
