Way back in an old PAX video (Of Crestwood), they showed a part where you, Cassandra, Varic, and Vivi overtake a keep at night and claim it for the Inquisiton. Later on in the video, the devs said that once you capture keeps, you can choose whether they have an Espionage theme, Commerce theme, or a Military theme. Since then, this feature was never talked about again leading me to believe that this was scrapped.
So without any plot spoilers, is this feature still in the game?
I've captured a Keep in Crestwood.
Never got the option to customize it though, it seems to have gone to espionage by default.

So I guess they scrapped out the part where you can customize the theme of each keep, which explains why they never talked about this feature after that old PAX video.
The one in Crestwood was a bit more closely tied to a certain plotline though, so perhaps you can customize other ones that aren't. Don't know yet.

Ok, thanks. Hopefully people who have ventured further into the game may lend more input to this.
So you can't customize them? I wanted all of mine to be military :S
Don't think you can customise. I captured the one in Western Approach and it seemed to go forces, which I was confused by as forces was by far my least used...branch? Sure, we'll call it a branch. Meanwhile, I'm not sure the one in Emprise du Lion went anything. It was kind of just...inquisitiony.
I also remember in that video the OP mentioned, they talked about having done pre-storming work like poisoning the water supply and whatever else to make the fight easier, but I didn't see any opportunities to do that

Wow, this is a bummer. Again, this only confirms why they no longer talked about this feature outside of the "leaked" PAX video. Perhaps they just did not have enough time to put it in the final game and thus it was scrapped.
Again, nothing game breaking, but it does suck because I was really looking forward to this feature and how it would add more layers to replay value.
