Weren't any noticeable amount of blacks either in DA1-2, doubt it has anything to do with Gaider, just a common thing for pre-wokeness era games - you're making a medieval Europe-inspired fantasy rpg & your target audience are 90% white males, no quotas, no need to put any asians in unless you have some specific ideas for such characters.

so i guess niggers and ching-chongs are just result of elven inbreeding in their ghetto in da universe.

Lets hear Codexers predictions if this shovelware will succeed or fail.

they'll show some flashy gameplay, some dwarf on elf sexscenes and theres still enough biodrones around so it wont be a complete fail

DA4 will merely continue the DA2 and DAI tradition of being cringe & shit.

And DAO. Do not forget all the cringe and shit in DAO.

The series still hasn't got an established art direction or lore. It's actually kinda amazing. Remember that Origins was supposed to be the ORIGIN STORY of the Grey Warden you'd play in all the sequels.

Dragon Age was conceived as an evergreen fantasy series, their own Forgotten Realms. The Warden was not Shepherd.

Sneak Peak. (Voiced protagonist confirmed)

Detective? WTF is that in a medieval fantasy setting. Do they have police too? These writers are such hacks its actually impressive.

I am not sure this time. The hate for the reveal was universal, which was quite surprising!

Why is the game called Dragon Age: Origins?

The game offers a unique new feature called Origin Stories that shapes the way the world sees you and the way you will see the world. Each origin determines the player’s motivations, shapes his or her experience, and renders a unique prelude, path, and ending to the game. We also chose “Origins” because it symbolises BioWare’s return to its roots.

Great feature btw, not only did it give unique & fun prologues, but also moderately influenced the overall walkthrough & possible endings.
Compare to how shitty the same feature is done in Cyberpunk.
Bioware did have its moments of glory in the past.

Thedas has never been medieval, only Ferelden seems to be that. The entire rest of the world appears to be in the Renaissance, especially Orlais.

Will sell a few million copies, but won't come anywhere close to covering its production costs. 80% of the team will be laid off.

C'mon, it is an RPG trope as storied as WFRPs 1st edition at the least.

Origins was supposed to be a standalone, which is why they commited to the epilogue and ending slides despite those causing only inconsistencies in the sequels. I believe it's true, though, that's part of the reason why this IP has much messier art direction and themes than ME. I think it could even be made the argument that the sequels were more of a byproduct of ME's success than DA:O's on its own seeing how Mass Effect adjacent they ended up being, leaving behind a lot of their cRPG roots and such.

Considering how long the production took, I'm surprised if it turns out otherwise.

Not enough, but I'll gladly accept 80% anyways.

The Renaissance happened in the high medieval period. On that note though, pretty hateable that they laid the splendor on french Orlais, meanwhile italian Antiva is a cesspool of assassins. Renaissance is pretty much the only historical period we italians can be proud of, and you give it to the french.

"Are you sure those character designs will help us sell our game?"
"Sell?"

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

It took Gaider the Racist leaving for Bio to do a dwarven romance."

Too bad they'll fuck it up because it's tainted by 2024 bullshitz.

Bullshitz R00fles!

Imagine waiting years for a big booty Qunari gf from one of the early concepts but in reality you get some manfaced Horizon Zero Dawn ripoff named Trash instead. The absolute worst timeline.

 

[Reinhardt]

Imagine waiting years for

bioware game.

trash is exactly what you deserve.
