I am more interested in Nevarra or Rivian though I wouldn't mind Tevinter. Nevarra has the Mortalitasi and the looming civil war. Where as Rivian is split between numerous different factions(the chantry kingdom, the native traditions or the Qun) which would make it interesting to support one of those three factions in trying to gain an influence over Rivian

 

Also, isn't the more northern part of Thedas more tropical then the south?

 

I am curious that if we are in tevinter at how slavery might be portrayed. 

[frylock23]

Think about it: If we did a Tevinter Slave Rebellion, our PCs could be ... Spartacus!

Yup thedas is in the southern emisphere .

So I guess this means the world doesn't end in DA3. You spoiler you, OP.

 

Thanks for the interview link. I do find it hopeful even at this premature stage. So few games in this genre have a long lifespan other than the fertile, pop-out-a-game-every-year Assassin's Creed.

[Jackums]

Tevinter.

 

Yes.

 

All I care about.

 

Take my money.

[Vilegrim]

Yes.

Better than being a butthurt haters because the game do not feel like a XIV,XV centruty fencing  combat simulator.

 

 

So because they have deliberately gone for the worst possible combat style we should not say a thing....right. 

 

EDIT: second part was to harsh.

 

Seriously is it to much to ask that people actually use weapons somewhere near the correct way?  I don't mean having a 'real' damage model, DA doesn't and never has done that, but people moving how you should with weapons, it looks far better, and more powerful, than 'rainbow backflip 5' which is what we seem to have.

Maybe we should say it on a thread about that topic instead of random unrelated threads? 

[Uccio]

I hope that BioWare doesn't discard romances for the next games. I would not blame them if they did, but I hope they don't. But man........there was some heavy backlash this time around.

 

I think it was more about the options than romance in general.

[Tevinter Soldier]

I'd think we'd need massive upheaval in tevinter before a game was set there. mainly slavery being abolished.

 

perhaps that will be the point of the game a reformist archon get's elected (such as dorian) and civil war erupts then Qunari swoop on the instability?  

[Umbar]

Tevinter vs Qunari would be great, whether set in Tevinter, Seheron or Par Vollen. I personally want to see Antiva, Rivain and the Anderfels. More Orlais would be fine, but I'm tired of Ferelden. Let Alistair and Anora rule that place in peace and bring in the golden age the DA:O epilogue promised. I would love more Orzammar though. And Kal Sharok.

Lol, a Bioware game without romances. That will be a day to remember.

it's not unrelated, in the interview, Mike Laidlaw talks about the combat, and how he feels it is an improvement, and how 'trained warriors could do better' well yes they could...but what the combat has shown so far has zero to do with trained warriors.

[Hanako Ikezawa]

If we go to Tevinter, I hope we can remove it's current system of government and replace it with something that isn't despicable.

[Cypher0020]

Just please for the love of the Maker, no more Fa de!

It's completely unrelated. Here is the quote:

 

" Some people would get annoyed because they thought I was dismissing Origins, but when your character took a long time to shuffle into position it was like, 'you're a trained warrior, you can do better.'"" 

 

The absolutely only reference to "trained warrior" was that the shuffle in DA:O was bizarre and had to change, in the context of an interview that has nothing to do with combat animations. 

 

I get that you're obsessed with combat animations, but there's nothing in this passage that warrants a rant from you. 

[Heimdall]

I have had a vision of the future! DA4 will take place in Antia and Rivain (Or Tevinter and Seheron), the main character will be an agent of the Inquisition (Or Not) sent to expand their influence. Instead of the Skyhold, your base will be a massive dreadnought built by the Orlesians to counter the Qunari (Or stolen from the Qunari) which you may customize at your leisure.

*Totally baseless speculation

I think we'll see Nevarra is Inquisition story DLC.

moe on topic than any of the romance posts so far.

[Tevinter Soldier]

I am curious as to why you say that.

 

because bioware is about choice, they aren't going to break the point of choice where you're some linear Spartacus that topples an empire the game becomes a straight line, I mean what are the other issue you can give player agency to? they can't up heave the mageocrisy without destroying what makes Tevinter truly unique. there's no known issues with the imperial chantry and any citizen's being repressed as a result. the issue that's divisive is slavery. but being Spartacus limits your choices.

 

Unless you can choose to side with the slaves or against them. a AAA video game which is already attacked by every media person with an agenda already attacks allowing you to side with slavery as an idea not some pissy little slavers for monies but the idea that slavery can be sided with?

 

I can't see any company wanting that reputation in one of their best selling IP's.

 

so if you remove slavery before the player arrives destabilise the country as a result. Have the overall plot stopping the qunari, You now have agency on what faction end's up in charge of Tevinter and other side plots such as houses warring and have the ones that want to bring back slavery as the domestic bad guys that you have to defeat to unite the country against the invasion.

 

you get your flow and feel of a bioware game (specifically a DA game) with your choices and decisions whilst avoiding the biggest controversial issue with setting a game there.

 

just makes sense to me, i don't see how the game can address the slave problem without the player being able to side with it, And that to me is a bridge too far even for bioware. remove it before the game takes place and you not only avoid the issue it sets up the instability you need to fix. But no matter what they aren't going to remove the one thing that makes tevinter truly unique mages being the ones in charge. it would make tevinter just as bland as any other nation.

 

I mean honestly if fereldon wasn't the setting of the first game would anyone care?

did anyone really care about kirkwall? it was bland.

but orlais? it has the chantry's base and beautiful shifting landscapes. it has the intrigue of the game and the problem with the elven rebel's

 

its unique, Tevinters Uniqueness far more then slavery is attached firmly to the Magisters decadence. without that it's just old.
