Ridiculous rulesets; new gameplay footage added

[Thrasher]

@Inziladun Looks structurally the same to me, just different graphics.

The idea is that dialog trees a la Mass Effect do not contain full sentences, but a short description of what your char will say. But sadly, what comes out of the mouth of your char can be pretty different than what you expect. That's why I'm glad to see the old fashioned, full sentenced dialog trees return in Dragon Age.

That's idiotic. What would they make dialogs like that? That's very non-RPGish.

Time to hunker down and watch.

I've watched a bit of it, and I am very interested now. Sure it's not "teh work of art lawl" but it seems rather engaging.

Watch this video I couldn't help focusing on those so well proportioned shoulder pads. It reminds me of what codpieceslooked like during Renaissance.

On topic:
The combat gameplay definitely looks more kotor-like than anything else.

Yes.

"The combat gameplay definitely looks more kotor-like than anything else"

That's because you can play in two views - the KOTOR or the IE/FO/NWN view...

OMGZ Choice... and, they show both views in their videos so you are only remembering what you want.

Calm down Volourn. Remember that it might not be just the perspective he was talking about. The combat itself might look to work like Kotor did.

I thought noone actually bothered answering to Volourn's rant.

That is true. Because his response to mine will just be that I'm retarded and he'll go on about his random points.

Hey, hey, slow mana regeneration can be acceptable.

But usually not.

Damn whippersnappers. I remember the days in which my characters had to sit around a fucking campfire for a week to memorize a few piss ant low level spells that hardly worked better than rogaine in most documented instances.

Bah! You whiny bastards!

What pisses me off really hard, is that the enviros still look soso in comparison to IE and that the camera jumps when changin chracter!!! WTF is up with that.. i fucking known where they stand...

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Blegh. It looks just like KotOR combat. I call bullshit on "catering to BG2 fans" they try to spoonfeed.

Well, at least it looks more promising then with the trailer. Hopefully the dialogue won't feature Bioware-quality writing...
