I ordered DA:I on PC, but I do have access to an XBox One with EA Access... Huge dilemma now on how to best spend those 6 hours!

[shinyfirefly]

Six hours. I'd been hoping that we'd be able to play up to a particular checkpoint in the story, but with the recent previews it looks like we're thrown into the open world quite early on. If that's the case, a time limit probably makes more sense. Otherwise people could spend 20+ hours in the first open area and that seems a bit greedy.

 

I'll probably end up spending most of the six hours in CC. I'm going to be looking at that face a lot, so I want to get it right.

Being on a ticking clock seems like rubbish conditions to try an RPG out.

[Zehealingman]

Alright, nov 13? Alright, then I'll begin my blackout there and play warlords till DA:I. Sweet.

True, but it's a way for people to try it out like a demo (especially if they're new to the series).  They did something similar for Kingdom of Amalur and that worked on me.

[BloodyTalon]

Six hours is fair for that deal.

[KBomb]

Does anyone know if it's six hours total or a six hour at a time? For instance, once you've gone through the six hours, does it end with you not being able to access it again? If you can play at six hour intervals-- even with the same content-- it might be worth it for the CC alone, but if you get only six hours and it's completely over, I most likely won't get it.

It would be like giving a starving man a ****** while he looks at a chicken dinner.

Edit: lol why is crack.er censored?

[CROAT_56]

6 hours total

[polemists02]

Six hours is it. You get up to six hours. Then it locks. Now once it officially releases you can continue from where you left off. It is the full game so you can do anything but yea all you get is six hours. It is not a demo. It is timed access.

[Mightylink]

All I see with this is paying more money for something your going to pay for anyway, what a scam.

[Timate]

Its fair this way it would not be fair to give someone a whole area hopefully nobody does spoilers during this time

[shinyfirefly]

All I see with this is paying more money for something your going to pay for anyway, what a scam.

It includes a 10% discount on all new digital EA games (plus free access to old games), so if you buy DAI digitally you'll come out ahead. That's what I plan to do.

Dragon Age: Inquisition trial details for EA Access members

NOV 03, 2014
 

Be one of the first players to experience Dragon Age: Inquisition before its release date – just because you’re an EA Access member.

 

Your membership will get you into Dragon Age: Inquisition on November 13, before the game’s November 18 release date. The six-hour trial lets you create your hero, form your Inquisition, and take your first steps into Thedas, exploring the world and battling evil in both real-time and tactical combat. Discover the Hinterlands, where the war between Templars and mages has hit a fever pitch, or gather materials and schematics for crafting your arsenal. You can even jump into Inquisition’s cooperative multiplayer missions. The choice is yours.

 

EA Access lets you play before the game is out, and your progress will carry over once the full game launches November 18. Even better, your EA Access membership gets you an exclusive 10% discount if you buy Dragon Age: Inquisition from the Xbox One Game Store. Save some money before you head off to save the world.

 

So get ready to lead the battle to save Thedas. The Inquisition starts for EA Access members on November 13.

[Kuse]

Man I'm gonna have to space out those precious hours over a couple of days...lol...

 

Oh wait....Halo Master Chief Collection....nevermind.

[bluebullets]

This is absolutely stupid- lets leak 6 hours of a game to only one console, let a**holes datamine it, and go post the ending on the internet and ruin it for all the people that get it on the 18th and 21st!

[zerox505]

Because they used to crack whips. 

 

i can see why viv would ban this.

12 Things to Do in 6 Hours of Dragon Age: Inquisition

http://www.dragonage...age-inquisition

 

 

Are you ready to lead the Inquisition? Beginning November 13, EA Access members will be able to download a trial of Dragon Age: Inquisition on Xbox One and experience six hours of gameplay before the full game releases on November 18. Best of all, your progress will carry over!

 

In an effort to help you get the most out of your six hour trial period, we've put together a list of twelve things possible to do during that time. Are you up for the challenge?

 

1.     Create your Inquisitor. The game begins with the creation of your Inquisitor. Personalize your hero's race, class, and appearance. There's trillions of character possibilities!

 

 

2.     Witness the blast that tears a giant hole in the sky. Dragon Age: Inquisition's story kicks off with a bang. You'll get no spoilers from us!

 

 

3.     Form the Inquisition with Cassandra and Leliana. Every journey begins with the first step. See the Inquisition at the point of its humble beginning.

 

 

4.     Discover the Hinterlands. The Hinterlands is a massive area in the world of Thedas, ripe for exploration. With the war between templars and mages at a fever pitch, watch your step. You might get caught in the crossfire.

 

 

5.     Explore a cave. Treasures are rarely hidden in plain sight. What secrets will you uncover by venturing underground?

 

 

6.     Experience real-time and tactical combat. How you choose to engage in combat is entirely up to you. Jump into battle and start crushing your enemies with real-time combat, or pause the game to survey your enemies and surrounding environment and issue commands to your party before resuming play.

 

 

7.     Fight a dragon. Dragons are the apex predators of Thedas and will surely rank among the toughest battles you'll face. Make sure you're well stocked on supplies before engaging this massive creature.

 

 

8.     Meet a trio of followers. As the Inquisition's reputation grows, you'll discover characters throughout your travels who want to join the Inquisition and fight by your side. During the early stages of your adventure, you'll have the opportunity to get acquainted with Cassandra, Varric, and Solas.

 

 

9.     Use the war table. The Inquisition's war table is a powerful asset. Issue commands to your agents all over Thedas and complete missions that will aid in the advancement of the Inquisition.

 

 

10.  Close a Fade rift. The Inquisitor has a mysterious power, one that grants the ability to close tears in the Fade and stop the demon assault.

 

 

11.  Experiment with crafting. As you gather schematics, recipes, and materials, you can put them to good use by crafting upgrades for your gear—or entirely new gear. Upgrade your armor, create a sword with elemental properties, or just stockpile healing potions.

 

 

12.  Try out multiplayer mode. Band together with other players over Xbox Live and test your luck completing a dungeon. Can you work as a team? You'll need to in order to survive these punishing missions.

 

 

Dragon Age: Inquisition releases on November 18 for PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 3.

Personally, I'd rather wait and be able to play as much as I want at release, rather than get to experience the beginning of the game then having to wait 3-4 days before I could continue playing. Seems like that would just make the wait for release all the more annoying.

[Hanako Ikezawa]

Since we only get 6 hours, I'm debating whether to get EA Access this early or not. Seems a waste of money to get it early just for 6 hours when I can wait a month and get it free with a gift card instead.

 

Oh well, more time to play Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

Agreed. I'd be OK if it were six hours per game. So if I could go back to the start menu and begin a new playthrough and do that one for six hours, rinse, repeat, I think I'd go for it. But 6 hours total? sorry, I need at least one hour in the character creator alone to get a PC I'm OK with.

[Petedj06]

Great! I'm going to use the 6 hours to start playing the game 6 hours before release no waiting until midnight for me!

I agree. At that point I'd rather just keep playing and not have to worry about waiting for more time after getting a taste of it. However, six hours is quite a bit of time to me honestly. I thought they would cap it at two hours at the most. 

[Knight_47K]

Wait! Just one hour. With the new CC, it would easily take me 4- 5 hours. I will try all the classes / races CC first, just to see which one looks the coolest.
