The Goha interview with Cameron Lee was certainly uncomfortable.

The 'gay toggle' question was an unpleasant question wasn't it !

 

Though before we do a character assassination of all Russian gamers, the actual question was pointing out that Russian gamers are

conservative (whatever that means) and some feel offended at LGBT content. 

 

You only need to look on youtube and game sites generally to find that unfortunately many people around the world hold those unpleasant views, the only difference here being that those views appear to have state sponsorship/approval in Russia at the moment, as they have had in other countries in the past.

 

I think Cameron did really well under the circumstances.

 Have to agree, Cameron did extremely well handling that interview. He never became offended or appeared shocked by their views, which in their culture is normal despite that it isn't in western culture, but he also gave a good explanation as to why the content is in the game and how everyone doesn't have to experience it.

 

Really think Cameron should get some sort of bonus/award/recognition from EA/BioWare just for the interview, keeping your cool in that interview an remaining professional was top notch!

There are three if you pre-order the deluxe edition alone...

So my guess is 10-12.

I think they said there was about 30?

I don't know why that went private and I haven't been able to find another version of it out there. but I'll leave it there for the time being, just in case it becomes public again...

 

About twelve hours late to this, but I believe the Russian site broke an embargo by releasing footage of things they weren't meant to show yet. Bioware had requested that these videos only contain character creation and the Hinterlands.

 

(Then again, another video showed Emprise du Lion and I forget who that was. Was it the same Russian website?)

Emprise du Lion is a footage EA send to some youtubers.

Anyway the no spoilers thing has been broken numerous time now , there's a lot of footage of the start of the game before the Hinterland and some other stuff...

There's also some preview with the whole prologue explained so erf...

Odd criticisms here. His main beef is that npcs don't engage you in the world except to shout as you pass by or that there are too many fetch quests. He then notes that he was playing Origins last week. Well so was I and my recollection is I couldn't engage every npc either and I also got offered a ton of little side quests most of which I ignored. This just seems to be kvetching to just kvetch. Besides he also argues that he wants an Origins 2. Not sure that's what I want. I don't want DA 2 but I also don't want a remake of Origins as I've played that game.

Nope.

 

I wonder if it's only the graphics that differ, or if there are less features also.

I was about to say that this reviewer's complaints were kind of weird, like he throught the whole game was in just this one area, the Hinterlands? He only palyed 4 hours, which is equivalent of like 1-3% of the game.

 

For declaring himself a huge fan, he seemed really ignorant on what DA:I was all about. Kind of painful to watch considering I wanted to shout "YOU DO THAT IN SKYHOLD."

 

I think he has this really romantic idea of what Origins and DA2 are. He needs to do more research or at least watch a few gameplay vids from twitch.

Really good video in my opinion and sadly a lot of my worries seem to be absolutly right. The developers said that they wanted the combat to be a mix between origins and two, but aside from the tactical view it's just the combat of Dragon Age two. And the way we looked at the combat wasn't the problem, it was the combat itself. Also lame side missions, without any actual story behind them besides a single sentence.

Yeah exactly. I was just finishing Origins and Awakening this weekend and so when he was comparing them it did not ring true. I mean I am sure there will be some tasks given in DA:I where I am sure I will groan and not want to do them but as much as I loved Origins I was skipping little side quests too out of lack of interest. 

 

I guess what will be more telling is when the real reviews come out next week. Reviewers, if they've done their jobs, will have had a chance to play it for more than a week. So somebody whose played for 20 hours is going to have a more valid opinion than someone whose had 4.

I think he is viewing DA O through rose tinted glasses.  Not that I didn't like Origins but it seems a lot of the complaints he is making about DA I also existed in DA O, maybe to not the same degree or scope, but they were still there.  And as many pointed out we do not know the full scope.

"fetchquests" are used to promote exploration and direct you towards possibilities of gear discovery / schematics for upgrades, etc instead of following the linear story line. They're all optional, not mandatory. Helps you leveling up and breaks from the monotony of story-time. I hated how everything was linear in DA:O - couldn't really explore and DA2, well, I was pretty tired of the same zones and it was all fetch quests in teh exact same areas.

 

I don't see the issue. You can walk away from the NPC's request without giving an answer if you want to do the quest or not, hence why the NPC conversations aren't in cut-scenes. There's been a few demonstrations by via twitch streams that you can just walk away and the NPC is like "wow ok, just walk off then" to your character's actions. They're aware.

 

They greet you while walking by, most of the NPCs trying to get your attention is because they do want to chat. No recognition of your race? How about that Orlesian woman screamin when the dwarf inquizzy walked by her? Or the DAlish Inquizzy asking a question to a NPC by a bridge and the NPC basically telling them to Eff Off because they were dalish? How about your advisors asking you questions on what it means to be x race and be the Herald of a religion you don't even follow? I think that's pretty indicative that the world reacts to your race / beliefs.

 

This review is pretty ignorant, imo. LAcks research in what's available to the players given freely by the devs over several months.

Not really.

 

Check out this gameplay footage from the Emerald Graves, it's based entirely around exploring an old chateau to discover what happened to its inhabitants.

Have you even been listening to the video? He mentioned dozens of times that he only saw the beginning of the game and that there is obviously more to it. Also i don't heard any complaint about something that's going to be integrated into skyhold. His main complains were:

 

- Only Quest givers talk to you. Yes you couldn't talk to everybody in Origins, but there were way more people to really talk to and these were also people that didn't give you sidequests. Just take Lothering as example: You have that madmen, that you can calm, which isn't a sidequest, you can talk to the chantry-people to learn more about the chant of light and they don't give you sidequests. All in all there were a lot of people that you were able to talk to just because you wanted.

 

- Weak Side Quests. The main complaint here was that they don't have real story of background. They ask you to do something in inquisition and the only thing you can do is accept. In Origins you could investigate to find more about the quest and the circumstances that lead to the person needing your assistance. You could accept the quest or you could blackmail people to give you more money. The Quests still seem to have proper context in Inquisition but no more big stories attached to them like in Origins.

 

- Actiony combat. He complains that the combat is very action-oriented and not as tactical as it was in Origins. He goes on to explain that the developers said they tried for a mix between origins and DA 2, but all they did was bring back the Tactical cam and they didn't actually improve the combat itself.

 

In no way did he complain about lacking content or anything that could be explained by him thinking the game would be just taking place in the hinterlands.

But i allready know that won't convince you, because i have the feeling you are just going to criticize everybody who dares to mention that Inquisition might not be the best perfect game that will ever touch your harddrive.

I have to agree and it might turn out that I do more fetch quests in this game than in DA:O simply because the world is bigger. I did them in Skyrim because it offered an opportunity to  see more of the world and find a surprise. I am hoping that's the case with this one. I didn't feel the same impules to do these in DA:O or DA 2 because I was certain I was just going to see the same cave or same trail somewhere. In those earlier games the meat was in the main story and that was fine for that.

I noticed that Solas used Resurgence at one point in the video, but I thought that Resurgence was the Knight-Enchanter's "ultimate ability" if you will, and Solas is supposed to be a Rift Mage.

 

Interesting.

They've said the only real difference besides graphics is there will be less background stuff going on - fewer NPCs standing around, etc.

The content is all the same.
