Well after that new diary video definitely just as excited about actually playing this thing as ever. I like the new Merrill l appearance, but in the end will see how her character acts. FIne to have some variety in appearances.

If the story can live up to what they are saying it should be fun to see the consequences of choices. Plus after the vanishing brother act for the human noble in DA:O I'm happy to have the family hanging around a bit.

...Like half the rare items in DA:O have a jealous lover killing the owner of the item or something like that.

Unless you count that the owner of Gift Of The Grey was killed by a jealous darkspawn grieving over the death of an ogre.

New preview and YES more Lady Hawke screenies!!!! Now if we could only hear her va

The map looks really wicked, skill trees and the whole environment, just so much better than Origins.

Was that really the item description? I gotta check that out now.

Agreed. I thought they were constellations at first, then I saw the word "ABILITIES" and I had a derp moment.

Otherwise, it all looks fantastic. ...Even Flemeth.

As for my neverending contributions of little tidbits of previews, everyone who pre-orders the game from the EA store will get a belt called the Irons (Tokkan covered the sword and shield).

Bonuses:

* Adds to all Elemental Resistances
* Adds to Health
* Adds to Constitution
* Adds to % XP gain

And the other bonus content is called the Black Emporium.
Comes with:
* A Mabari
* A magic store that restocks with higher tiered/rare equipment as you progress through the story
* Mirror of Transformation. Use it to change your appearance at any given time
* Recipe crafting store... with unique recipes, I suppose
* A bunch of lore. And an NPC that's been described mysterious.

Comes in both new Signature and Regular Editions.

And relating to first game...
Something glitched in my copy. I don't get approval/disapproval from conversations/events anymore. On the bright side... yay, no more bitchy Morrigan.

The long wait is closing in on us! But sadly for me it will take a little longer, so just watching videos of people making lets plays will satisfy me until I'm eventually able to get it

Irkalla · 2011-01-13, 14:19

I wish I could fast forward time as well, March 11 can't come soon enough.

I'm loving the emporium bit, a mabari, extra stuff and the option to modify your appearance ingame!

There's a news that PS3 owner won't be able to get Pre-order Bonus , only for PC & Xbox360 .
The reason ? Nobody know yet -.-
Well , i'm on PC so it won't affect me

BetoJR · 2011-01-13, 19:11

Where did you read that? It makes absolutely no sense. All the news at the Bioware page mention all versions of the game, not only PC and X-Box. Pure terrorism, this.

-Sho- · 2011-01-13, 19:34

Well , i was surprised too , saw it on my country biggest videogame site . Dunno where they heard that... they said :

"Now we heard that PS3 vers won't get it" .. weird.. specially coming from this site.. they might have been drunk while doing the news

Yeah... If the company actually went and pulled something like that, then the PS3 players would go into an uproar about it.

BetoJR · 2011-01-13, 19:55

I'd be one of the first ones to cancel their pre-orders, actually.
Thankfuly, neither EA nor Bioware seem to be that dumb.

Thank goodness for that as well. We wouldn't want EA's popularity nor Biowares to go down the drain with an incident like this.

Completely editting post, since this is more important information than some silly hood:

Force Mage:
125% damage <-- not sure if it's +125% or +25% damage. Either way, it's going to be a... force to be reckoned with (pun totally intended)

Blood Mage:
+25 Health

Spirit Healer:
+25 Mana

A new mage spell: Black Hole. Draws enemies together into a group.
The Dalish clan in the first game (the Dalish origin story clan) have settled in the new area that was revealed, Sundermount. Merrill's specialization is 'Dalish Pariah'. Dalish Pariah probably being the equivalent of Blood or Force magic.

Additional Information:
-Knight Commander in Kirkwall is named Meredith.
-You get to go into the Deep Roads to help Varric's brother
-Grey Wardens make an appearance. You get to help them out with stuffs.

Oh, and Bodahn and Sandal make their way to Kirkwall. Enchantment? Enchantment!

Edit 2:
http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/to.../index/5744591

Pictures of the new inventory interface. Looks really nice.

Edit 3:
Not sure if the picture of the skill trees was already shown here (the one with the female player and the 6 schools of magic).
Anyways, there's a key for all the skills:

Squares are the root of each school or specialization, Diamonds are actives, Hexagons are modals and circles are passives.

I am NOT going to wear an armor of a psychotic engineer sprawled on an alien infested planet.

Someone report him to the SPCA! Those poor necromorphs!

That armor doesn't fit Dragon Age 2 at all

Otsdarva · 2011-01-21, 02:07

Isaac's armor? Hahahaha... Dude, what the hell?

Least it looks like it'd be a favorite for rogue classes.
