Dragon Age: Inquisition Pre-Release Thread

[Borelli]

Graphics seem less colorful than in the last trailer so at least that's a good thing. But then last trailer had a desert and crystal caverns which cannot not shine brightly.

 

[meanwhileInPoland]

Fuck off Bioware.

Looks like complete shit. Bloom shit.

look fucking great. especially that fade shot at 00.41-45 sec and i see no bloom whatsoever

 

[Lhynn]

Kingdoms of Amalur is totally without merit, but it is fun for just running around in I guess. Felt the same way about Two Worlds, but at least Two Worlds tried hard.

The thing you mean to say is that TWII didnt feel like a hollow and shallow piece of shit, and yes, i agree.

 

[Jedi Exile]

This is the best trailer they released so far - no terrible animations, no annoying companions, no retarded dialogue, just scenery.

 

[Infinitron]

I want to be a Skyrim

 

[Akratus]

This is the best trailer they released so far - no terrible animations, no annoying companions, no retarded dialogue, just scenery.

The only way for modern devs to not embarrass themselves in promotional material is to put nothing in it.

 

[Zombra]

Ooh, pretty graphics. That's good, because the reason I hated DAII was because it didn't have pretty enough graphics.

 

[Delterius]

Ooh, pretty graphics. That's good, because the reason I hated DAII was because it didn't have pretty enough graphics.

To be fair

 

[Caim]

To be fair

They based DAIII on Skyrim, and I see they based DAII on Morrowind, both with facial models and rocks being part of the scenery EVERYWHERE.

They are trying really hard to attract the Skyrim Fags who think the best part of an "RPG" is hiking and climbing mountains.

 

[MasPingon]

They could take a lessons from CDPR how to make a "World of..." trailers properly, for sure.

 

[Tribal Sarah]

Hey, a new Skyrim mod. Cool.

 

[DemonKing]

Well, they seem to have done good things with the Frostbite 3 engine. Let's hope the gameplay is a match.

 

[Azrael the cat]

So this Dragon Age game will finally be about an age of dragons, right guys?

I can see potential in that. In an actual 'age' of dragons, being a dragon would be the equivalent of just being a random dude. I'd play a game full of dragon janitors, dragon drug-dealers, dragon bureaucrats and dragon used-cart-salesmen, where the main quest is 'oh shit - there's a HUMAN with his lair somewhere down there!'

Unfortunately, I can't see Bioware's take on it going past including numerous varieties of hawt dragon sex.

All the better they didnt.

If anything, this schlock will bomb all the harder because Witcher 3 will have even that better. Lest hope for final and ultimate ... restructuring in EA follows.

- good to see ya back, mang.

 

[Angthoron]

I want to be a Dear Esther

More like so.

 

[Lagole Gon]

Looks good.

Can't wait to see awkward underwear sex animations with these graphics.

 

[sea]

Shrug, I think the game looks gorgeous, visually. Nothing against it to say, that's a lot of effort they put in and the art style is a lot more interesting and refined than the first two games'. This might be the first BioWare game with really solid character animation too, if those short clips are anything to go by.

Yeah, it's channeling Skyrim pretty hard, but... well, Skyrim sold 20 million copies or whatever, I can't blame them for targeting the same players. And I definitely would like to see BioWare at least go in some new directions.

 

[Akratus]

Targeting the same players does not mean copying videos and artstyles though. Skyrim was popular because it was a new entry, in a franchise, that arrived at the right time, with a great big budget and being known for open world free-movement gameplay which no other game had in a market that focusses on restricting players. This all facilitating exponential word-of-mouth hype. The whole viking fad and promotional videos are just a by product. Still, it's always been the obvious safe route as explained in "Marketing your product, for dummies."

Anyhow, whilst watching the video I had to repress my "maybe it'll be a fun timesink!" feeling pretty hard. So maybe it won't be bad. I'm surpressing that idea though, yeah. Since I never finished or liked either Dragon Age 1 or 2.

 

[Onholyservicebound]

Looks good.

All it ever got them was ridicule, and the same rating as the witcher which has full nudity. I'm sure they won't do that again, fade to black would be the best option.

Those are some nice visuals though, not that that means much. I haven't really heard anything I didn't like yet in regards to this game. Seems like it'll be an improvement over the previous titles, but yeah the Skyrim shit is getting old. I vaguely remember a video where a dude had a torch walkng in a cavern and it was hilariously similar to the skyrim trailers, they should play to their own strengths..whatever those are.

 

[Jedi Exile]

I am not sure about the art style. The buildings, trees etc. look good, but the undead or whatever they are called in DA universe are the same like in previous games and I think they look terrible. And what's up with that 'blight' shit, why they are trying to put it everywhere?

This might be the first BioWare game with really solid character animation too, if those short clips are anything to go by.

Hopefully.

Dragon Age Inquisition Character Kit #3 – Vivienne


To Vivienne, there are no impractical clothes, only impractical people. Her magnificent attire is a sign of her station, the jewel of the high court of Orlais where wealth, power, and beauty are inextricably linked.
A thousand arrows would pierce her breast before Vivienne would don beaten steel for so base an urge as protection. If one must wear armor, then have it flatter the form. Hide it beneath fine fabrics more becoming of one’s status, for steel alone will not protect you from the barbed tongues of Orlais.
To dress for comfort or purpose is a scandal—fashion and splendor are all that matter to Vivienne. Shower yourself in gold, let only the finest silks grace your skin, and wear a king’s ransom in pearls and silver upon your feet. Leave the stained tunics and rough cloaks to the commoners and their mud farms–a proper Orlesian climbs mountains in her evening gown, standing taller at the summit in her formidable high-heeled shoes.

Well,at least they finally admitted their characters are dumb.

 

[Bubbles]

They're simultaneously contorting themselves to justify their designs while shrugging their shoulders and going "eh, whatever". Now women are wearing protective armor carefully hidden under uncomfortable-by-design evening gowns while showing plenty of cleavage and climbing mountains in high heels.

 

[dryan]

I like any excuse that gives me cleavage.
