I was just wondering why there is no origin story for human commoners? I mean the humans can not all be nobles in the DA: O world, so why is the human race the only one with just one origin?

Any info would be appreciated.

There isn't one because we didn't put one in the game. And humans have two origins, not one. As for why, the answer is "because." Pretty simple, really.

Wow, resurrecting a 5 month old thread? Crazy.



but I will answer a 5 month old question:

Now in absolute fairness Stanley when the game was announced and I started following it way back on the old site. and the older forums. Human commaner was listed as one of the origins. Now it has never been maid clear why that is the case but I don't really care. It's not so much that it was in the trailer but that it was announced in the begining as part of the game.


Many things can happen between trailer and final product. You'll even see movie trailers featuring scenes that don't make the final cut of the film, and aren't included in the special features on the DVD. For one reason or another--pacing, can't make it awesome enough, redundancy, time, too many issues, actor won't come out of his trailer for re-takes, tech designer got carpal tunnel, executive decision, mime invasion, puppies, Oilers didn't make the playoffs... again!--a thing gets changed or cut during development. it happens way more often than you know. Devs generally don't talk about what might have been because that's not what they're selling. They're selling the finished product, and if that finished product doesn't have a Human Commoner origin, or Ash sleeping for thousands of years, or Neville apologizing to the alpha male infected and returning the uncured alpha female, that's unfortunate but that's just not what's in the final product, for good or no.
