I've never understood this, but like, how do you decide if something is considered spoilery or not?

 

Like, maybe it's just because to me, spoilers hardly mattered. Like, if someone accidentally spoils something for me, no big.

 

Like... do you consider Cole being a spirit to be spoilery? Do you consider giant glowy green figure spoilery? What about the dragon fight? Is that spoilery?

 

The Cole being a spirit thing is not a spoiler to me, I read the books. I couldn't figure out why the dragons are fighting each other so I don't consider it a problem. Since there are like 20 dragons, I figured at least two of them would be fighting over territories, maybe that's what's happening?

 

I consider anything story related to be spoilers. I don't mind light spoilers and side quest ones, but not the downright main antagonist speeches, companion's true motives etc. The game may have a lot more content so people who do watch these things don't have to worry about it, but it just won't have the same effect when you play the game and see these things. When they create a trailer, I'd like a bit of discretion used. But in these trailers, It's like they don't have anything else to use and just reveal more and more about the main story which makes me frown.

I personally am pretty impressed with the lack of spoilers we've received thus far story wise.  I could have done without a few things that I know now, but overall I don't think it's been bad. 

 

The only way to really avoid any spoilers is to go dark.  It's a fine line between showing no spoilers and giving people enough information to get interested in the story.

I really hope not, would be dumb IMO to put ME models in inquisition as some kind of easter egg, especially Jack AKA the most unlikeable squadmate in the ME series

 

*In your opinion.

 

In mine it's kissass Liara.

Mhm. Basically how it goes.

Is this for real? Where was that at in the trailer? If we can make an Inquisitor that looks identical to Jack in the CC... wow. :o

 

EDIT: Nevermind! xD

 

I apologise for the cheeky botched photoshop of Jack.

The hairstyle of the actual Inquisitor reminded me of Jack so I thought I'd make it happen.

 

That said, the CC looks really good and if we wanted to make Jackquisitor I think we probably could.

Honestly that's how I feel about it too.

 

As far as I feel, there was nothing overly big given away.

 

Revealing the antagonist now feels alright since it's been ages since the announcement of the game while still having enough time to leave us guessing about things.

 

They could've held back on the green glowy figure or Hawke/the Warden until later, but overall, not too bad.

I don't feel spoiled at all. I'll forget these things before launch naturally as a defense mechanism.

Well, that'll depend on the person. Some take much less time to beat a game, some take far longer.

 

Who knows how long it'll take?

We have a lot of discussion regarding what level of spoilers are okay to provide when it comes to trailers. We have to provide some... the only way to not give away any spoilers would be to reveal nothing at all about the story, and that's not something we want to do. It's too much of a big blank, especially when it comes to BioWare games which revolve around their story and are known for such.

 

That said, the spoilers we reveal may not be the ones people think they are. I've seen a number of interpretations of what we've shown which are, quite frankly, completely wrong. Some intentionally so, as the trailer is put together in such a way as to be ever so slightly misleading. "You realize that, when they see that shot, they're going to think [this certain thing]?" "Yup, absolutely." So people will absolutely speculate away, but I'd suggest being careful of taking every interpretation as if it's gospel truth.

 

And if someone's preference is that they get NO spoilers? Then they should avoid marketing stuff completely... but that's true for almost every game ever. Govern thyselves.

I've got friends doing that right now, avoiding every bloody thing. Works wonders for them;I have a friend who knows VERY little about Inquisition, and I won't ruin that for him.

 

By the way, hope you're diggin the response to the presentation. Seems overwhelmingly positive!

Woah, the new trailer got me really hyped. Goosebumps and all. The gameplay was nice, but the focus on combat doesn't really add much at this point. Wish they showed more of the character creator and crafting system. The little we saw seemed nice.

 

That being said, that gamepad ui is getting reaaaaaally old, reaaaaaally fast.

I imagine we will get something on each down the road that digs a little deeper.

Crafting isn't a big deal to the masses, so I see that being reserved for insiders or small groups like us.

Awfully rude of them to slam the door in that Dragon's face.  No wonder it looks angry.
