I would love the camp back, truth be told. Or something similiar.

 

One way or the other; what lacked the most in DAI and DA2 most obviously, was a sense of progress through travel in itself. This is one of the things I used to love in classic RPGs; the "entering of a whole new hub town and finding the inn".

 

DAO did it sufficiently well to my liking, despite having the utmost horrible technology at its disposal - I wonder what Frostbite could do with that in mind. After all the, uh, innovation I'd be up for a classic "roving band of companions chatting by the campfire" again.

The setting has already been decided since the development on the IP is well underway, but for speculation purposes I wouldn't mind seeing them bring their storytelling skills to the biblical Armageddon-style rise of the anti-Christ or something along the lines of The Da Vinci Code character Robert Langdon (played by Tom Hanks in the film). Contemporary high adventure with both political, espionage and/or supernatural hints.

 

Edit: Oh great, brain fart time. Reading one thread, but responding to the one that I had just exited. Oy vey!

Just so long as everybody doesn't have to have sex in Morrigan's tent again. Awkwaaard.

What's wrong with everyone having sex in Morrigan's tent? :P

I was happy to lose the campsite. I like having the home base to work out of, rather than being travelling murder hobos.

We've had a cool castle.
 

 

 

We've actually had two cool castles. To this day I love Vigil's Keep.

 

I'm open to anything, but the things I want out of a stronghold are:

 

-personalisation, like Skyhold's decor etc options

-storage for my items

-upgrades that are more than just cosmetic changes (looking at you Skyhold tower and courtyard)

-the ability to fix any holes in the walls and roof.

 

Here's hoping it's a mage tower.

Something that doesn't require me to decorate it. Blech. :sick:

Well, we will be near enough to Rivain, which has boasted its share of infamous pirates, so why not some kind of "appropriated" Raider Stronghold replete with all the pirate necessities of life?

We had sex in a tent? I thought the Warden and their LI just moved off to the side and everyone else agreed not to look that way for a while. :P

A pirate ship!

That would actually be pretty awesome! When we go to a different 'zone' we actually get on the ship and sail there. It would be pretty amazing.

They could at least ask her if she'd like to join!

Nope, we are definitely banging in Morrigan's jerryrigged.. tent... thing. I'm pretty sure everyone still agrees to look the other way, though.

I liked the castle wouldn't mind something like that again doesn't have to be as big though and hopefully we can personalize it more though.

We've had a camp.
We've had a city house which pretended to elegance.
We've had a cool castle.

In DA4, I'd like to have a city house with true elegance for a change. For instance, an Imperial-style atrium house with a formal garden and some fountains and statues, something far from Skyhold's weighty austerity and as far from a camp's simplicity, something sophisticated and luxurious.

What kind of base would you like to have in DA4?

Cool castle? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL³³³³³³³³
You mean that huge amunt of brittle (after all upgrades) with a lot of zombies and robots?
DA series is way too heroic to have an interesting "base", camp was fine, gamlem's too
But if they go heroic then a base in another dimension (fade pocket dimension), castles/keep/etc are the worst thing ever
I guess little boys want to play commando and bases and stuff... boooooooooooooring
mass effect already do boring army stuff

Get over it people.

Dragon Age is done. Mass Effect can have one last game that should be NWN-esque (with so many origins, classes, skills and conversaions).

Other than that revive some old franchises, or Bioware is truly finished.

Tyranny in these forums tho.

Castles are overrated. I want a hideout. I want V's Shadow Gallery, with a collection of various artifacts and curiosities "liberated" from snooty a-holes that I can mess with and/or kill.

Of course, this relies on having the story take place primarily within a city, but if this is taking place in Tevinter, this shouldn't be difficult to pull off, and frankly I'm kind of done with the woods. I want some Dragon Age urban goodness.

Yeah, I'm in favor of returning to more urban environments.

 

More varied urban environments than we saw in DA2, of course.

^ This.

In my dreams, DA4 is set around Antiva/Rivain and involves lots of intrigue with Crows, the Felicisima Armarda, and the Qunari with a ship as your base of operations and nautical combat mechanics, sort of like in Assassin's Creed Black Flag.

 

Totally beat me to it. Damn!

 

But yeah, a pirate ship could totally work! You have your ports (and maybe even Ports, haha, okay, I slap myself now) in Tevinter, Seheron, Antiva and Rivain, you have intrigue, you have swashbuckling high-seas adventure... what is not to love? Absolutely behind the AC4 as an inspiration in terms of naval mechanics. And, one more important thing - make the ship customizable. I want a captain's cabin covered in swag amassed during my misadventures.

 

One of the opening quests could be us getting the behemoth of a ship we will use - it would have to be large, if it is to house out entire coterie - by stealing it, for example (most likely from Isabella). Imagine, sneaking around a Tevinter dock under the cover of the night - I can almost smell the seaweed and guano. 

 

Also, going the pirate route would provide unique visuals and atmosphere to the installment, which would definitely set the game apart. It would show us yet another side of Thedas we have yet to see. And there are not that many fantasy pirate/maritime RPGs around. Sure, there are plenty of your standard high-fantasy faux medieval concepts - I have lost count how many times I walked through an elfy forest or a brown rainy countryside across the genre. But ships?The market is there, and it is up for grabs. Dragon Age: Black Flag could work. Within the market, within the genre, and within BioWare's production history.

 

This damned thing needs to happen.

I would love this so much! I really want something an underworld feel, but also classy. So something like this, and defintely not hanging out in the sewers with the Thieves Guild.  :lol:

 

I'd especially love it if we acquire a collection over the game of things we've 'collected' from missions. Especially if some missions take place in Magisters' big fancy houses.

"Protagonist, what is that oddly shaped lump on your stomach?"

"Uh, I'm pregnant."

"You weren't a minute ago... and you're male. Lift up that shirt!"

*a vase falls out*

"Run!"

And Oghren. Come to think of it, we'd probably be better off going at it in the woods, imminent darkspawn threat or no... :whistle:

Massive treehouse, like if we had months to build the Jaws of Hakkon camps instead of days.

A safe-house that you choose the location of in the city, with the location influencing what kind of quests you receive, with the risk of being forced to change locations if you are discovered.
