*Beren sees neat cutscene video from a game. Looks interesting. Looks for game on Origin: Nothing. Looks for game on Steam: Nothing. Looks for game on GOG: Nothing. Checks Wikipedia: Playstation exclusive.*
This round goes to you, dirty console peasants. 
ETA: Oooh, ToP! Wardens. They get the job done.
Save the f*cking world, indeed, Warden Rainier.
And so can Inquisitors...... 
Lady Lustre! *hug* Hola!
Elven Glooooryyy!
I mean, LOOK. Look at that glorious Elven booty!
*disappears in his room*
OOL
*Silently leaves the tavern and returns several minutes later carrying a nug*
*Kicks the nug out the window*
You've embraced your inner Iron Roy, I see...
My Warden saves Ferelden.. My Hawke saves a city, or tries to.. My inquisitor saves the bloody world alright.. next PC most likely will save the world too, I don't see the next game if they make one being set more then 5 years after DAI (3 after trespasser). Not if in Tevinter and Qunari war started already. We're gearing up for the finish line I reckon.
I reckon that too.
I heard something about a "five game plan" a long time ago.
It sure is going to be sad when DA ends - but better to end on a great note than become a cash cow to milk.
The good thing is, the tale of Thedas still has a heavy plot to build on, they're not quite just pulling it out of their ass as they go, there's something there, been there from DAO. Going up to 5 games, plus how many books and how many comics? many people would say it's just a cash cow now but the big difference is what I said, the plot is still there. The base foundation of the Thedas tale.. but it does feel like we're starting to get to the homestretch, 2 more games maybe and a few books/comics.
I say the tale of Thedas because that's what the series is, a story about everything happening in Thedas in the Dragon Age. Not about this character, or that character. It's a whole, and all about the world.
Londo Molari: "Great Maker"
Random bad guy: "Do you know why a drunken fool like Molari has the power he has? Because his family has been collecting dirt on other years, like all the noble houses of the great Centauri Republic. That's how they play the game, isn't it? Whispers in the dark, a knife in the back."
I am not sure what this means, but the links between Orlais and Centauri are indisputable.

I think they can continue Dragon Age even when the current plots are all tied up.
They have a massive universe. I wouldn't go for an outright sequel, but... spinoff isn't the right word.
Maybe something a millenia away from the age of the Dragon. The stories of the Warden, Champion and Inquisitor nothing but thousand-year old legends.
Yet you still have a massive story with entire books worth of lore.
going past their current series, and creating a whole new on based in their fantasy world would definitely be milking a cash cow. I was just talking about their current story and current plot.
Random video for Serza. Cheers, mate.
*Drinks*
Aria went from Solas to Bull and now to Sera.
Sera is an aggressive girl when she starts kissing.
And taking charge again.
Hey guys, got some pics of Kenzi 2.0 for ya:
I think I did a pretty good job recreating her.
Oh and I took a Cass pic for Beren 
I do, yes.
So what is this about then?
I can't say because it would be spoilers.
What?
*snip*
Rivaini?... Al?..
..uh, I never would have thought that such vile treachery was spreading within DrinkQuisition!
It's not! I lost all friends just now!! *looks angrily above*
Except for you, of course, Sparkles.
Here.
*stands up and goes to a farther from someone corner*
I guess I'm chopped liver again? Don't worry, I'm used to it by now.
Ugh... now they are tea drinking ladies!
I bet a qunari can't even hold such a delicate cup without breaking it.
TEA!? DUMP IT IN THE HARBOR!
Ugh... I just wanted to add what a ****** special important person you are.
I destroyed nothing, I redecorated!
Paragon! Take care, all those tea ladies are loony tonight!
Should have dumped the tea in the harbor.
Well... if you don't want a Rogue or a Mage... there is not much of a choice left
ToP:
Was in stache mood and no Iron Roy around, so...*snip*
I'm flattered. Mmmmm Dorian.
How is chopped liver doing today?
Lovely pics Invernesse! great recreation job right there, she looks amazing, just as her original does! .. I actually thought it's the same one, so amazing job hehe

Sheridan would certainly show you know who what's what.
Started the long boring task of transferring all my videos and stuff off bf's computer and onto mine.. with only a 16gb usb drive to do this with. This is going to take a long time..
Finishing Trespasser while I wait for files to transfer.. at least I still enjoy it hehe
On the subject of what the game is like, IDK after Tresspassers it seems more like a medeval BSG. Then anything.
On the subject of the 'five game plan' I would appreciate it in its own way. ME was a trilogy, DA is a 'play' in five acts. It is the two main ways to tell an epic story. That or seven installments. BUT I think in more recent interviews they have made clear that they do not have a specific plan to number of games. There is enough material at least for two games though. Either way I just hope EA (or BioWare themselves) have enough foresight to say no, this is it, this is the last game and last story we are going to tell so lets wrap up as much of the plot as we possibly can. I mean, for instance, could you imagine if DA I was the last game?
If there's going to be a final game, it may very well be the next one I think. After DAI, which is first time that team's used this particular engine, they know they need to end on a high note.. not an experimental one. I say that because they seem to be using DAi and its DLC to test all sorts of new things, ideas etc. like animations in combat, spells, abilities etc. Ways to get the trees working in this more linear, shorter less abilities fashion for one example. Open exploration world, jumping, character creator being so customisable, tag-along npc's for specific quests/areas for a couple of others. To me DAI felt like a big experiment once all the DLC's were released (and played), I really enjoy the game, anyone here knows that by now, a top 10 video game for me beating Origins out of the ball park but yes, I still think it was a big experiment to see what they could do.
For other thoughts: DLC spoilers (all 3 DLC's bundled)
edit: oops, completely forgot: MULTIPLAYER! that was a big experiment on DA team's part too.
The 5 game plan was something Laidlaw threw out there. He said there may be more or less than that many, it just depends on how many games it takes to finish telling the story they want.
Or how many games EA lets them make.
You know I just realized in regards to Sandal's prophecy about magic coming back the inciting event of magic combing back in this world was the Dragon's coming back.....now where have I heard that one before.

This, please. I don't care if it is four or seven or whatever, as long as they continue to tell the story with the same great quality. Oh, and, you know, finish it before I die
5 games is a good number for this kind of series, with different protagonists each game. So long as the DA Keep continues to work for all future games so people don't need to play the first 3 to play the 4th with a custom world state! haha
edit: I have a feeling they will let us know when the final game of the series will be the one getting released. whether its the next game, or in 3 game's time. Because of the fact as soon as one is released, people start talking about the next one.. lol..

they do it with DLC.
yup, which is why I have a feeling they'll let us know about the final game prior to release, or on release etc. It's a bit harder, since they can't release early info of if they're even making a DA4 or not. But, I think they'd make the final game to be a final game, of course EA will likely stick their nose in so.. hopeful / wishful rather then sure.
