    I stand corrected! Still, doesn't look much better than DAO or DA2. Bioware 3D artists re-confirmed to be shit.

    Is any of this footage from the PC version? or can we expect over saturation city and the contrast of a thousand exploding suns?

    The combat seems utterly boring. Im guessing the UI on the pc will also stink of consoleportitis.

    In comparison to what Dragon Age actually looked like, the trailer didn't look much better.

    The Power Ranger music made me realise that Dragon Age could be awesome if they had gone even more OTT than they already have. Make it the cheesiest and dumbest game you possibly can so that you can make fun of other fantasy games. I would enjoy that.

    Yeah, I'd most likely enjoy it if David Gaider and company was exchanged for the Saint's Row writers. I mean the writing is almost best of the worst tier already so why not just embrace the schlock and abandon of all pretence of making a serious game?

    Damn, thats just missed opportunity! They should hire someone like Johnny Yong Bosch and Daniel Southworth for voice acting and motion capture (well, if they are doing any motion capture for cutscenes).

    Oh wow.
    Bioware does have the right writers, but wrong genre:lol:. I honestly think that their games would get better, if they weren't serious about their writings.

    Agreed, BW games should go the deliberate campy route of ME3's citadel DLC.

    Since Bioware wants to make Dragon Age combat more "action", we should at least get something like that.

    It's always a bit weird watching live 2 dudes masturbating over a goat barbie simulator while talking about "scar reflective lighting" and "eyebrow curves" :)


    This is where I stopped though:
    - "<false male sexy voice>and yea, while we're at it....eyelash style....."
    - "yep!"

    It is easy for Bioware because they make a piss easy, basic combat system without substence. Obsidian on the other hand tries to make something more complex (and fail :D ).
