Yeah, we get to play at 9PM on the 17th, take that E. Rex!!
(though Hrungr I can't actually play til the 23rd since I won't have my machine till then...I'll have to live vicariously through you my fellow West Coastian).
Sorry to hear you have to wait, but what are you getting...? 
Regarding KB&M: Different strokes for different folks I guess. I thought what we saw of PC looked good and easy. We'll find out soon enough.

Sorry, that's the first one-hour gameplay video that surfaced yesterday...

It did look good and easy but does it play out the same way? Hope some other people who got to play KB/M can comment on this.

A brand new shiny desktop. Inquisition would make my laptop explode. X)

Oooo... Shiny. 
Oooo... Shiny.
So perfect in every way.

The inquisition troops have different colour schemes than in other videos?
Sorry if that wasn't clear - can we change the colour schemes of our troops?

We got a whole host of reviews coming next week and I'm sure plenty will be KB&M layouts. We should get some good info from that.

I think it happens naturally as a result of Requisition orders... so if you manage to give them steel armour it's going to look different than another type of metal.
(The devs have previously said that an outfit's colour depends on the materials, especially the metal.)

Ausgamers interview mentions KB + M feeling like an after thought, like it was meant to be played on controller, but could be played KB+M

That's not what he saying. His exact word:
Almost immediately I get the feeling like Dragon Age: Inquisition is made to be played with a controller in hand. Attacking demons doesn't take any real precision -- as long as you're pointing in the general direction of your enemy when you click attack or fire off a spell you'll auto-lock on and kill them. When you switch to tactical view, time pauses and you move the view about as if you're placing a marker on the map, not pointing and clicking on enemies. So while you move with WASD and you can jump with the spacebar, the mouse feels semi-superfluous -- more viewing device than aiming system.
He's basically saying that because he didn't have to point and click to attack the mouse support is a useless feature. He's basically saying "I can't do headshot, why did they bother implementing mouse support?".
Then you haven't watched/read/listened to a lot of previews. There was this one guy that was almost comically uninformed. The example you used about the qunari mage 'somehow being free' is niche info, most people will not be aware that the qunari we're playing is Vasoth, but at least he knows enough about Thedas that he knows Qunari mages will USUALLY be chained. So yeah no, they weren't perfectly versed in DAI's lore nor do they need to be in order to critique it in all honesty. You don't need to know the history of the Elder Scrolls front to back in order to have reviewed Skyrim for example.
Although I've thought of another problem with the review. Though this is more a problem with reviews in general than it is with this one specifically, and it's that games aren't judged for themselves often enough. They always have to carry the weight of all the games that came before. But at least this review is upfront about that.

I want troops dressed in magenta and cerulean.
AusGamers has another small interview about blood magic (or the lack thereof) in Inquisition:

That's interesting, one of the other written reviews from yesterday states the KBM controls are well done and very natural???
It probably depends on whether the reviewer usually plays with a controller or KBM, if they're more comfortable with one or the other. If I had to review using a controller, I'd probably find it a bit odd. It sounds like both sides are happy with the controls, overall.

Yes it did, but that video has now gone private...

no clue, but that reviewer specifically said he was worried about how the KBM controls would work because he was afraid it was designed for a controller but said he was very pleasantly surprised...
Yes it did, but that video has now gone private...
Again....hmmm it went public again on tuesday afternoon...

Okay, I'll put themageguy's link in the OP then.
