Since the quest involves Antiva, it is believed to be his nickname for Josephine. 

 

Scribbles is so much better. 

 

Oh ok, that makes much more sense. Also yes Scribbles is a much better Nickname for her! (no offence bioware) 

 

Also when I read "ruffles* I Immediately thought of Potato chips.

I speak mucho gracias Italiano (note the italics). The man in the video said he went to a café and had a cappuccino which was excellento. There is no direct English equivalent of the word excellento, but the closest translation would be "somewhat disappointing." Then he read a poem in Japanese which unfortunately no one can translate since the Japanese language (known as Hieroglyphics) went extinct in 1476 when its last known speaker, Socrates, died in the Battle of Hastings, which was the last battle ever to take place on Canadian soil. But it was probably a poem about haggis, which is a delicacy in China, the capital of Japan.
 
You're welcome.

Yeah. Plus with her dress having ruffles on it, it is likely that it is for her. 

I'm hoping for at best a patch that changes the nickname or at least a mention in a DLC. Knowing my luck though, neither will happen.

[Ladyinsanity]

Didn't know the NDA got lifted

Expect to see a whole bunch of EU previews and even reviews coming up, ussually they don't abide by NDA rules that good. Atleast where i live they don't. streetdates get broken regularly as well by small/midsized retailers.

 

then again.. why would they worry, game looks good and everyone that previews it is amazed so far.

 

From what I know, it wasn't. Not even the one that's set for 6 hours from now.

[Brogan]

5 seconds. That's how far I got into this and thought,

Ugh, f**king spoilers.

It just looks so awesome. But no more footage. No more spoilings. I'm just finishing Act 1 of DA2, and I'm taking my time, so hopefully I will finish that in a week or 2, I'll get set up on the Keep and get everything locked in.

My GTX 980 is set to arrive this Thurs, so I will take the weekend to install that, run a bunch of benchmarks, and by the 18th, I will be set to pop.

I'm pretty sure the nickname is supposed to mean she "Ruffles peoples feathers." The nicknames Varric gives people in DA2 was always made about the characters personality.

 

Daisy - Merrill
Sunshine - Bethany
Rivaini - Isabella
Fenris - Broody
Anders - Blondie
Sebastian - Choir-boy
Carver - Junior

That's, like, the opposite of what Josie is about. She's a diplomat, diplomats excel at being sensitive and smoothing things over, not getting people agitated. "Ruffles" is almost definitely about her dress.

 

Also, Blondie had nothing to do with Anders' personality. 

[Reznore57]

From what I know, it wasn't. Not even the one that's set for 6 hours from now.

 

There's too many embargo going on , I've heard about the 6th and 11th of November , and there's also something today?

I'm probably going to burn out on DAI if I look at everything.

Well most people here thinks he's dumb, and he is blonde. See that as you will.

 

Also just because she's nice doesn't mean she can't make enemies especially in "The Game."

 

Edit: Even her writer says that  "Josephine prefers to gently steer people into agreement whenever possible, but she’ll take a stand when needed. There’s occasionally an iron fist beneath that velvet glove."

[Reznore57]

I thought "Ruffles" was the Inquisitor nickname?

Since you're the one who read the message and you have to pick if Josephine or Leliana will take care of it?

Maybe. But Varric never gave Hawke a nickname.

[ericky]

Anyone notice the weird things the shield was doing at about 4:40?

Yup, saw that too. The shield shifting glitch. That was...weird.

[Rahavan]

Oh god the qunari with that beard HAHAHA he looks so ridiculous! Good to know we can make comical looking characters in DA:I.

 

[Reznore57]

Maybe. But Varric never gave Hawke a nickname.

 

But the letter is obviously for the Inquisitor and not Josephine?

If it's for Josephine , Varric ask her for a favor , she then send you the message and you have to decide if you do it and who's going to take care of it.

Makes more sense if it's for the Inquisitor since he/she's in charge?

Yeah I get how the Inquisitor fits the nickname. Just the idea...

 

Giving the Inquisitor a nickname in less than a week, and Hawke not getting one for nine years?

[Eudaemonium]

Hawke technically gets one in Mark of the Assassin. I think it's Waffles, Chuckles, or Killer depending on your dominant tone.

[Snorka]

 

Okay, these are the main things he said:

 

1. The game is again far more tactical, very close to Origin.

 

2. Is an "Open World", divided in macro areas. The first area you can explore need at last 20 hours to be fully explored (to find every content), and you can freely go almost every were. Every area if full of side quests, secrets, objects and weapons and collectables. In every map, you can build camps (probably in defined spots), and these camps are needed to brew potions and cure companions.

 

3. Since there are no more healing spells, there are also no more permanent wounds. This is to balance the situation.

 

4. The enemies are tougher, more various (regard the type) and more intelligent. Skills are well implemented and diverse.

 

5. The main hero and his companions seems to be fully customizable regard the inventory and the look of clothes and gears.

 

6. The tactical view is smaller compared to the one in Origin (camera view over the area)

 

7. On hard level, tactical view and/or pause is vital to survive (his personal opinion) because enemys are very very strong and you realy need to use every skill you have at the best if you want to win.

 

8. In the verstion he tested, he found some minor graphic bugs

 

9. Graphics is wanderfull.

 

10.It is very excited and he needs to play the full game.

 

"6. The tactical view is smaller compared to the one in Origin (camera view over the area)"

The Twitch PC gameplay video showed off some perks, one of which was called "Eagle Eye" which i believed increases the range of the tactical camera.

[Spider Pig]

No, that's to increase the range for that pulsing scan thing our characters use to find items around their proximity.

While it may look smaller, it´s dynamic, not locked to character which means that you are pretty much able to explore and command over your party for quite long distance

from what little time I do spend in tac cam on the PC during Origins, it isnt locked to the character then either... once you pull all the way back up and out.

We've recently gone to England on behalf of EA to take a look at DA:I 

 

As a long time fan, I must admit I was quite nervous because said company was once one of the most beloved, a mother of western RPGs, while today seeing the gamers so doubtful every time there's a new release is like a bullet in my heart.

 

Inquisition looks like a true back to origins (in every way) also concerning the quality level, it's not a hasty production like DA2 but a proper, deign conclusion to the series, which turns out to be huge and able to satisfy almost all tastes.

 

This duality which should allow this game to satisfy both RPG and Action fans could scare a bit, but Inquisition looks like a much more tactic and complex product compared to the typical Bioware sci-fi RPG.

 

The game is huge, developed in an open world with Frostbite. We spoke with producer Cameron Lee who admitted the difficulties related to the development with Frostbite, but he stated that it would have been impossible to develop such a huge work with the previous engine.

 

You can instantly tell the difference, after a brief and rather linear intro in which you are told why your character is in charge of the Inquisition and which explains about the foundation of said organization, you find yourself moving in huge maps from the beginning. The first slot has more than 10 hours gameplay, the authors say 20 if you do all subquests. The maps are fully explorable and full of things to do, collectible items and secrets, you can jump almost everywhere, climb walls, reach almost every corner. There are still graphic issues and small bugs here and there but if you consider the dimensions of the maps it's understandable,

 

There's no more the chance of magic healing during battles so you have to build base camps all around in which you can resupply and recover. The combat system is as fast as in DA2 but much more tactical and re-balanced. Enemies are no more cheap but tough ones, they are very varied and well done so as are you party's abilities.

You can choose among 3 different classes with different development branches, in the inventory you can choose among a great variety of objects to personalize your character and companions, in other words it's a true RPG despite the action tinge.

 

The tactical view from above like the one in Origins, so vigorously called for, is back, and it's very useful when fighting gets hard.

 

The enemies beat hard and you have to rely a lot on magic shields and barriers to survive, it's no picnic but it gives great satisfactions. Very interesting also the management of Inquisition, once you're done with a quest you unlock the war table in which you choose the missions to do and send your companions to fulfill them. Quests are sometimes secret and you must unlock them as you go on with the storyline, it's a totally new handling of the storytelling, much less linear than before. Everything you do has consequences and brings the Inquisition to act in a certain way, there are choices which totally change the campaign, quests which nullify other quests so you have to choose between a thing or another and to use your brain starting from the relationships with your companions.

 

It was a short test, though short is not the right term since it was 4 hours long, but during said hours we just scratched the surface.

Sure is that Bioware put a great deal of passion in this game, over 4 years of development, an uphill struggle to import the whole game in the new graphic engine, a lot of changes and a care for detail that you can appreciate from the very beginning in the character creation, which allows you to choose even the smallest details.

 

If you lost you gamesaves in DAO and DA2 you can use the keep because your runs vary a great deal depending on your former choices.

 

DA:I has all the numbers to be as good as Origins and even better so let's keep our fingers crossed until november 18.

[Roirr]

Well, my first (and only so far) complain and a first let down... the beards look bad.

Realistic looking faces + glued paper facial hair.

Shaved bald Inquisitor it is then.

Oh well.
