It will have some spoilers in it, most likely. Like something you'd read in a preview. We won't be telling you that the butler did it. Oh wait. Darn it!

The pronunciation of Mhairi has caused much discussion amongst the team. Sometimes loud discussion. True fact, there. :)

I'll say this right now. There's no way David Sims and I are going to drink darkspawn blood on air. I'm on to you, standardpack. Image IPB

 I don't think they got rid of it, it sounded to me like they made it where actual cutscenes were activated, rather than random.  But the banter is still there.

That is correct. There is still banter as there was in Origins, in addition to the conversations triggered by in-game objects.

It was really fun answering questions and showing off the game. Hope you guys liked it. To clarify one point, companion banter is definitely still in. The companion interaction spots are more a replacement for launching into full conversations in the middle of a level. Companions will still do this on occasion, but a lot of their color doesn't take away gameplay control. Myself, I happily hit the companion interaction spots any time I see them. I like learning more about my buds travelling with me. :)

I was the guy in the red shirt that chatted for most of it. David Sims was busy driving and fighting, making chatting trickier. :)

Yeah, it was pretty hilarious when Peon's Plight was resisted. That was the first time I've ever seen that. But that's live for you. If David had died, I would've cracked up. He would never have heard the end of that. It was his level we were playing after all.

I really like banter, as well. Some of the best companion moments come out of it. We definitely have more banter in Awakening - so I'm glad that the question got asked to clarify that.
