SNAKES N CAKES posted:Note that it says "alpha build" in the top left corner, so any speculation about the tactics screen or the UI based on this footage is just straight up useless. I remember when they showed the very first footage of Dragon Age 2 and the UI and font choice looked so loving bad I refused to even consider the idea that it wasn't placeholder. What a fool I was

So what we have learned here is "horrible, horrible beard" is an option in character creation.

This gets acrimonious enough without bringing in politics. And I am looking forward to playing as the most terribly bearded Qunari in history.

UberJumper posted:I want to try finishing Dragon Age Origins, the last time i played was probably when the game came out, so i don't have my old save. I installed the recommended mods. I'm also about to replay because I'm bored. What list of recommended mods are you using? Nexus mods is a clusterfuck (as always). You know what DAO was missing all this time? 3 minute sex scenes of blowjobs from Morrigan and doing Leliana doggystyle.  I mean, that's what I'd be doing to them IRL so not having that always ruined mah imurshun...MY IMURSHN BIOWARE, DO YOU EVEN CARE?!Drifter posted:That Qunari reminds me of Archer, but as a Qunari.

Is that for the 360 and xbone? Follow up question. I have a laptop that struggles running Borderlands 2 at max settings and a 360, which would be less of a clusterfuck for DA:I?

IIRC it's balanced between the two until you get cunning to at least 20, then pump the rest into dexterity

I'd be fine with fetch quests if they gave me a reason to give a poo poo, but one preview already talked about awkward shallow quest endings so yeah, I'm calling that shits gonna be as shallow as skyrim all around.

UberJumper posted:For DAO, and starting out as a dual wielding rogue, am i supposed to be going for cunning or dexterity? Enough dexterity to unlock the weapon skills you want, then take the assassin specialization and dump all your points into cunning. If you don't take assassin, they're equally valuable IIRC. A. Beaverhausen posted:I'd be fine with fetch quests if they gave me a reason to give a poo poo, but one preview already talked about awkward shallow quest endings so yeah, I'm calling that shits gonna be as shallow as skyrim all around. "As shallow as Skyrim" is still miles ahead of DA2's/ME3's bullshit non-quests.

Watch some of the vids, they seem to have some of the fetch quests in them. Personally they look better than some other options and look to try and eventually link into the story/ open up new areas, but that'd be your best bet for looking at stuff.

French hour long play session: Part 1 and Part 2. Some very light spoilers but he skips some of the talking. At one point he forgets to tell his inquisitor to do anything during a fight with a demon that is kicking his rear end, and the poor guy just stands there watching the team getting trashed. Lead them or fall indeed.

UberJumper posted:I am getting really mixed messages here Assassin and Bard are both great specs that depend heavily on cunning. 30 Dex, 20 Str, rest Cun (you can stop about 4 points before hitting the target on dex and str since you get stat boots in the Circle tower) should be your spread during the Origins campaign, unless you want to become a Duelist/Ranger for some godforsaken reason. People who recommend a dex build probably played the game before it was fully theory crafted. The only advantage of dex is that you can use your high defense + Evasion to make a rogue tank (keeping in mind that Evasion drastically reduces your dps by interrupting your attack animations when you dodge, which is why you should only take it on a tank). quote:Also i am getting a message every 5 minutes of "Cannot connect to Dragon Age Servers" which is really getting annoying.
