So, we know we are getting to control our own castle and have our own "suite of rooms" to live in. I am so in love with this idea because I truly enjoyed in DA2 that we had our own estate. It was really beautifully done as well, I would go up to the second floor and just look out those windows and stare at the night sky...I can only imagine how awesome it is going to be to have our own castle. Customizing it and making it our own fortress is going to be incredibly fun and fulfilling.
I can't wait to see pictures of this cool new place they have dreamed up for us!  Also know that this thread will probably contain spoilers!

I find that interesting, since we effectively had our own estate or castle for all of Mass Effect, except it was a spaceship rather than any of those things.

 

It's not as novel as you might think.

I really hope the customisation is really advanced. For my first playthrough it would be made to be really practical, with hardly any finery. In my pro-Templar playthrough I'd like to have it a shining beacon, filled with statues and golden fixtures. And for my "dark lord" necromancer playthrough I'd like to make it a dread-fort with black-gothic architecture, a looming throne, and a skull shaped entrance. 

 

I doubt we'll be able to have that level of customisation but hey, a guy can dream.

It is for a Dragon Age fan in a Dragon Age forum in a Dragon Age thread.

 That would be incredibly cool - and we may even get to do a partial on that.

I think these might be early concept-art pictures of it.

Spoiler

There's apsolutely no confirmation, I just think it would be unlikely that they would show so many pictures of a single inquisition stronghold unless it was our HQ. Also it looks like it might be in the frostback mountains which seems like a likely place for our HQ to be placed as it would be near Fereldan and Orlais and it would make it easy to defend.

 

Anyway I don't know about you but I think it looks ****ing awesome.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on extensive customization. Bioware might do it, but it'd be a new feature for them vis-a-vis their other games.

Also I think a dev said skyhold keep is "highly cutomisable", make of that what you will.

I was thinking it would be that one as well which would be amazing!! I can't wait for official pics to come out so I can start dreaming and planning...

I do recall them saying it would be highly customizable but that may only mean in terms of trade and shops etc...not sure yet but can't wait to find out. I assume this is where your "war table" is as well so you will be spending a lot of time there.

It is for a Dragon Age fan in a Dragon Age forum in a Dragon Age thread.

 

Also the level of customization is going to be higher than adding a few model ships in Mass Effect. Also the Castle will probably be bigger space wise than the Normady was. I'm excited I haven't been able to customize a place in an RPG since Suikoden and I loved the castle parts of the games.

Dumb idiot standing over here who doesnt know what "vis-a-vis" means.

 

Also I think a dev said skyhold keep is "highly cutomisable", make of that what you will.

 

Vis-a-vis literally means face-to-face, but is generally used to mean "in relation to" or "compared with". 

And not having encountered a word before has nothing to do with intelligence. :) 

 

I believe Bioware when they say it will be highly customizable... by their standards, I just tend to be pessimistic when it comes to their end product re: customizing.

I love how they are making us feel awesome about ourselves and being in power. That was the cool part (one of) in DA:A where you were controlling Vigil's keep and making decisions and had people to consult....this is going to be SO awesome!

That was cool in Skyrim....but maybe we have people to do that type of thing for us? I don't know, they say that if we harvest too much of a resource it would affect the world a bit so clearly every little choice you make has consequences.....

As long as it has a waterfall and a hot tub, I'll be happy.
