Looked like a puzzle minigame, and I think the reward was an Inquisition perk (or Inquisition influence).

I was referring more to the laser that shoots off into the sky.

It looked like it was revealing a location or something.  Maybe after you get all of them in an area, something opens up?

Does any of these videos show the Inquisitor and company leveling up? 

[wcholcombe]

Yeah one of them does....I believe the rogue video does.

Maybe I'm dense, but even after Clara's explanation I'm not sure why she wants to out Fairbanks as a noble. Wouldn't that cause problems for him?

I think she wants him as a lord , because he's a good guy so the refugees would end up his peasents if he gets a title and some lands.

I'm not sure why he was hiding his noble origins.

Oh no, Solas is doing that, "I'm just gonna stand here while y'all fight" bug again.

I usually don't say stuff like this but... it's painful to watch that guy play. Even I would be better at this

But I can't help it, I have to watch all those videos... I mean, look how pretty the spells look! And-and did you see the colors?

[Ashelsu]

DW Rogue is my favourite class. Watching these guys is just... painful.

Need to find positives.

Hey, Cassandra has a cute accent! "Sol'yas nid hel'p!".

I see in one of the videos where in the upper right hand corner it tells you how many landmarks in the graves there are.  Does that always stay there or can it be turned off?  The Emerald Graves: mini boss video is the one I'm currently watching.  

 

That can be some what annoying for me because I like an uncluttered screen, but I can get used to it.  I can understand it being a current mission or optional one in the area.  Just curious.

Not just that, but many people probably wouldn't see those videos in the first place had they been on other channels geared towards experienced RPG fans. All that would do is expose the game to the same people who already know and care about it. Most other people would likely never know those videos even exist, simply being on youtube doesn't mean you have universal exposure, there are still tons and tons of sub-communities that never interact or overlap with one another. So by getting people they do already watch and subscribe to to play the game and post videos and impressions exposes a new demographic to the game who otherwise would probably not know about it or give it a chance. 
 
That said it probably would have been a good idea to spent 30 minutes or an hour demoing the game to them before hand showing them the nuances of combat, but I guess they want them to capture a raw and authentic look at the game.

 
Then give it to someone like FRANKIEonPCin1080p who at least knows how to play RPG's. They've given it to complete amateurs who don't even learn quick (shown by how not a single person even thinks of hitting the god-damn A button to perform a regular attack). I've seen comments in those videos where people are saying the game looks awful so it makes me wonder if those videos have attracted more people than they've alienated.

 

At the very least, those people should have been given instructions on how to play. Everyone wants to see good gameplay, even those non-RPG fans, I could only watch so much and I'm an actual fan of the franchise. I don't think it was necessary to capture a raw look for the gameplay especially for a new demograph.

 

After using the chain pull so many times, surely these players should have used common sense and figured out that it brings the rogue closer to the enemy and that's it and it's not an actual ability one should use to damage opponents. Apparently none of them are even paying attention to the numbers that float above an enemy's head when damage is dealt to see that the move does little damage and that it's really a method of getting the rogue closer to enemies quicker (with the warrior's version pulling enemies towards them).

 

Oh well. Hopefully within the next few weeks we get gameplay videos from people who know what they're doing.

If he is a noble it will put him in a position of power to be able to try to improve things for the peasants, since he  is sympathetic to their problems.

I will agree that I'm not sure what the purpose was to show these videos. Terrible players have a very bad habit of making a game look worse than it is. I think that's partly why some marketing doesn't allow footage like this lol. Even as someone who's super excited watching these guys play hurt my eyes and I turned it off twice before I completed it. The bugs didn't help. Not one to really try to tell a company how to market their games but I don't think this was a very smart marketing tactic.

 

I will not be sharing these videos with anyone who's on the fence. Not because the game looks bad but the players make it worse than it actually is. I think those videos give a very false impression on how the combat is supposed to work. One guys didn't even use auto-attack and mostly stood around in the battles and almost all didn't use tactical camera at all. No offense guys...sorry. It's nice Bioware has confidence in their product and doesn't mind showing it off to anyone but I think this is why we have different marketing videos or specific guidelines that some companies force a player to use when they record footage.

 

I'd imagine this is the type of footage that would be shown when I first try to learn the mechanics to a game or my little cousin is figuring it all out his first time through lol. If I was Bioware I would make these guys take several practice runs to get a good grasp of the mechanics then allow the footage to be recorded.

The fighting was pretty atrocious across the board, but I was watching just to see the general look of the locations (all beautiful!) - and that said, I fast forwarded through 80% and didn't have the sound on.  I don't want to watch or hear whats essentially a Lets Play before I get my hands on it, ya know?

 

Though I did happen to notice the weird glitches on occasion, like Cassandra running in place...

This video by WikiGameGuides is Destiny gameplay but he spends most of it talking about his trip to EA. He expresses annoyance at some of the other invitees futzing around instead of taking it seriously.

 

(I hope this wasn't posted already, but it's worth a  listen.)

I agree, I was just saying why they chose non-RPG fans over experienced ones. I don't think the execution was at all done well. It doesn't seem like any of these people knew what was going on at all with franchise or how to play the game. It seems like EA just dropped them in a room with the game and that's it. No introduction to the series, no instruction, no explanation of the gameplay, no direction, nothing. 

 

And I'm also guessing this cost them next to nothing, where as people like Pewdiepie and Frankie would probably cost a lot more than just the plane and hotel fair they put up for a few of these relatively unknowns who likely were paid next to nothing, if nothing at all. The access to these video alone will help their channels a lot. They don't command much of any subscribers to even think of demanding any real payment like the big guys.

 Edit: Didn't scroll down far enough sorry :/

 

I did enjoy this video.  I'm glad he is able to talk about the atmosphere and how it was there.

Is it me, or does it seem like DA:I suffer from the ME3 universal button condition. In most videos I watched it seems each time the PC tries to attack he begins to start jumping or if a chest or something is near he loots it. I hope they fix this because it looks very bad.

Well, A is the jump button (or X on PS) as well as the interact button.

 

Attacking is the right trigger (or R2, I'm guessing). Which is unusual, but I suspect that's why it's up there.

I hope this is correct and the player I was watching just didn't know how to play. He was jumping right in front of the enemy, like he was trying to attack him.
