An e-mail from bioware infromed me that Dragon Age 2 has been announced, along with a teaser trailer which can be seen HERE!

Pretty badass IMO and, being a huge fan of the first part, gives me goosebumbps! Can't wait to see more.

Dragon age origins was an amazing game. i was disapointed in the way they handled
down-loadable content on xbox version however. i remember constantly having some awesome quests pop up and getting into it only to click "accept" and then become infuriated with a "click here to purchase quest" dialouge. i have no problem with buying quality add ons for a game but keep the fucking sales pitches out of the fucking storyline.. and another thing that bugged me about it is they had a ton of purchasable quest's available on release day. its kinda a slap in the face when you buy that shit day 1 take it home and then realize that they excluded parts of the game that have been complete before release( theres no reason it shouldnt be part of the game ) just for a cash grab.
like i can understand releasing additional content that was developed after the game has released and making some money... but that shit was shady.
i will probably torrent DA2

Interesting.
I hope they do a better job with the characters this time. There were many things that were very impressive about the game, but for a game so focused on story it was sad that the two most important characters Alistair and Morrigan were such a crybaby / bitch. Also I hope the combat will be more fun.

I hope they fix the dwarves. The dwarves looked like a bunch of monkeys with their oversized arms compared to their height.

I dunno dude, I loved them both.

What I didn't like was how, in Awakening, that healer-dude guy is so much like Alistair. Sounded like they used the same voice actor, he was equally as much of a crybaby...
I felt like they just got lazy.


Nontheless I loved the first one and this trailer gave me goosebumps.

EDIT:
@ The guy above me...
are you seroius? That's what freaking dwarves are >_<

What? Their peasant story was the best origin story. The part where the PC takes off the helm to reveal the tatoo was SOO EPIC


You seriously think they are supposed to be oversized monkeys? -_- Such an ugly 3-d model does no justice for such an awesome origin story.



Either that, or bring back the gnomes. I want to see tiny gnomes defeat giant dragons.

Male Hawke's default first name is "Garrett" (possibly spelled differently). [Podcast, Episode 2] NEW (08/05)
Female Hawke's default first name is Marian. [David Gaider] NEW (08/05)
Hawke can be male or female [David Gaider], [Mary Kirby], [Chris Priestly]
Hawke is human [Chris Priestly]

Lol that is pretty lame, and it also seems like an obvious attempt at copy mass effect, i dont know why they do that.

So gay, no new races...

This is sounding more and more like a sequel with updated graphics than something that deserves a "2" symbol.

All companion (playable) races:

At least the dwarves won't look like oversized monkeys anymore...

I hope the game ships with an actual story this time. DA1 ranks amongst the most shallow RPG stories I have ever played.

*spoiler alert*

Evil threatens the world. You have to gather allies and then kill it

*spoiler ending

Thats the entire fucking story. No twists, no suprises and they didn't even bother naming the final boss. He was such a lame villain. You never got to talk to him, never interacted with him in any way untill the final fight where he just kinda sits there and you whack away at him.

Sigh. I didn't play the new expansion for DA1, because I got sidetracked way too much with the modding. Looks like I need to replay from the beginning:

Decisions made in DA:O will show up in future iterations of the DA universe. [Podcast - Episode 1]

Yeah the story in DA1 sucks balls, the ending was ridiculously anticlimactic. You fight this dragon piece of shit i couldn't care less all that gathering of armies and shit i was expecting something more epic, like a plotline twist to reveal a true enemy you really wanted to fuck up.

But man, what is this? RPGs are supposed to let you be immersed in the story! Being able to customize your character is one of the key aspects of being immersed! The many different possible origin stories was definitely a key part of the original DA1. Why are they limiting it in DA2 to just one possibility? So lame!



Sigh... Unless if they go through the Final fantasy 4/5/6/7 route and have a reaaaalllly epic story using their key characters... but given the track record of western RPGs and their focus on side missions, I don't have high hopes.

As soon as the conversation options popped up, I immediately recognized Mass Effect's wheel of discourse, but this version has the addition of helpful indicator icons.


Basically, a clone of Mass Effect 2. Sigh. Ah well, I'll just lower my expectations. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised, just like I was with Alpha Protocol.

That's actually pretty lame that you can't choose your race/origin story. I thought that was a really cool feature of the first one, and it made replaying the game way more exciting.

Not being a big RPG fan, I thought the story was pretty good - mostly becasue I don't have much to compare it to. I guess the ending was pretty anticlimatic now that I think of it, but I still love that game ;x

High hopes for #2!

I didn't mind the story in DA, it wasn't fantastic but the game was fun either way. The only thing that pissed me off was how they handled DLC...

Oh look some guy wants to talk to me.

NPC: "Hi I need help theres a super awesome tower with treasure and stuff we need to leave right away"
ME: "Okay lets go"
NPC: "Please input your credit card details"
ME: "wat"

I bought one of the DLC missions but it was so disconnected from the story it might as well have not existed. I would have much rather had it integrated into the story/game in the first place and just paid more for the game for it to be done properly.

I still havent picked up DA, because it still fetches a price of 50 euros on steam. Somehow I'm so accustomed to digital purchasing I dont want to buy a hard copy which i might find for less than that. Steam sale plox!
