He had me from the release date trailer. :) I really, really, really (did I mention 'really'?) hope we have access to the character creator before the game goes live. It is my mission to create a Rook so hot, so jaw-droppingly handsome, so primally sexy that it will be Lucanis who says, "My Body is Ready!*" *I'll also accept "My b***s just exploded," but that visual would probably go right off the 'cringe' scale. 😈

I’m gonna love Lucanis. That spite demon is hilarious. Oh my God, I love his reactions. ‘Oh, he’s fun! You’re never fun.’ ‘I wanna talk. I want to talk to Rook.’ I’m really hoping that if you’re a mage, you can actually see the spite demon. Then I would send the other two away, and once they’re out of the room, I’d just say, ‘We can talk now, spite demon. No need to cause him harm. I can see and hear you.’ Something like that. I can just imagine the demon going, ‘Really? Oh, this will be fun. I don’t have to just deal with this boring man anymore.’ It would create a deeper connection between us Lucanis too, especially if you romance him. ❤❤

@@cande9023 I was personally planning on doing Shadow Dragons if that helps. The idea is that my Rook fights for a better Tevinter where everybody can be equal, even if he is an outsider for being Qunari. Couple that with our resident Antivan Crow whose people are at war with Qunari and is infamous for killing mages, and I think it’ll be a very fulfilling romance ark.

[@cande9023]

@@SilverShadow1617 that's a genius idea so thanks! I was thinking of doing a fellow crow since apparently you get a lot of reactivity in the story from that, but the revolutionary character paired with someone who feels doomed by the narrative (what with the whole "you might have to kill me" thing) is such a good convo.

[@SilverShadow1617]

@@cande9023 Happy to help. I think you’re right about Lucanis feeling doomed so having a rook that’ll teach him that anything is possible as long as he never gives up the fight would mesh well.

[@tismselfstorage]

I have no self-discipline about spoilers, but I don't regret watching this

[@ЛеснойБолван-я4щ]

Am I the only one who finds the dialogues kinda lame? Also, doesn't this thing, that the players can see this Spite but the main character can't, ruins the immersion and only creates confusion about your perception of the game and narrative? In all the previous games you got acquainted with the world around you through the protagonist's eyes, you never knew more than your hero and you could associate yourself with your character, making decisions based on the information gathered. And in this scene we, the players, see much more and thus understand much more than the protagonist - and other characters. What does it mean for the story? If I know some important piece of information that my Rook doesn't due to the plot, and that piece of information may change my view on the situation when I need to make my choice, I should WONDER how on the meta-level I should make the choice: depending on the information available to me or depending on the information available to Rook in order to roleplay as I want? Man, I could get into more detail about this issue (though I am sure my comment will just get lost in the thread lol) but at any rate it's obvious already that this is a big one, and I am just so confused....

[@Shinrea1]

No you're completely right. I think it's a symptom of bad story telling. It's breaking the fourth wall and makes the narrative weaker as a result. Nevermind that we already had this plot with Anders.

[@tracer.s]

Yeah, compared to prior games, the dialogue feels more scripted and akin to the shit I expect of Marvel/Joss Whedon. Still, it could be a deliberate choice to focus on scenes that incorporate such quippy dialgue - it avoids spoilers and is a 'safe' choice that execs likely think will pull a new audience. I was also thinking the same, with the inclusion of Spite. Why can we see them?? It would've been a cool perk and incentive for a replay to allow only a mage or whatnot to see him. Or put it behind some sort of decision; ala, you undergo some magical process or drink a potion and can see/hear him. Regardless, I'm still liking Lucanis. I don't think it's as simple as them repeating the whole Anders thing. Justice wasn't a demon and the whole crux of his storyline was him becoming more human. I'm excited to see a straight-up demon, tbh.

[@ЛеснойБолван-я4щ]

[@g_Cloud326]

Davrin. If you have any footage of him.

[@Gggly2513]

I dunno how I feel about being able to see Spite when Rook can’t. Part of the danger (and allure) of possession is the fact that, unless confronted in the fade, no one besides the possessed person can hear/see the struggle between the two of them. With Anders for example, he was clearly pained and sometimes Justice would pop out and speak to Hawke directly, but that struggle was mostly internal and something that couldn’t be understood by anyone else, even the most understanding Hawke. It’s the way that we can see that Anders/Justice are clearly clashing, but we can’t see how, and can’t see where it’s leading to until it’s too late. While I love seeing how the demon manipulates, I don’t think I like seeing something my Rook wouldn’t. I’d prefer if a demon’s manipulation tactics was only visible in the fade or to the one being tempted. I think this would have worked great for the scrapped da2 plot of Hawke risking possession, but I don’t think it works great here to see something that isn’t available to our POV character. Maybe I’m missing something though, idk

[@GarethOfByzantium]

That IS weird.

[@Kleineganz]

Zevran and Anders vibes? I'm so here for it. And this time we get to see what the demon/spirit is saying (even if the other characters can't). But does this mean Lucanis is a mage, while also being a mage killer? Okay, I can't wait to play this and find out more. Thanks for sharing!

[@LadyAstarionAncunin]

Ugh, same. I've started a new BG3 run to tide me over before this comes out, but I'm just ready for this already. I think I could potentially like him more than Astarion (which would be interesting, since I had to ween myself off of my obsession) because he's not mean-spirited or hyperse/xual (out of the gate like Astarion is). Plus, he seems more so bi-, which is less awkward for me as someone who plays female characters exclusively. Love Astarion to pieces, but there are too many clues that imply he prefers men. 😅 Not bad or anything, but it breaks the immersion at times.

@@HumanBeingHiuman but he dances around the subject instead of calling it what it is. He says it "changed him [Justice]", not "corrupted into a demon", and that "they are one now", while every time Vengeance comes out we can see he is very much a separate being that takes control over Anders's body (as he admits himself after the fade).

@@cande9023 its true taste is subjective. But common sense and working brain isn't. To say goty material is wild considering the games that got published this year. Wukong, Space marine 2 etc.

@@captainlongdik8724 game isn't even out so any comparisons are invalid until release. That being said, people have always disagreed on GOTY contenders. Remember the BG3 outrage from Spiderman 2 fans? And in my opinion Spiderman 2 was average at best, but I get why the fans of the game thought it was fun and don't feel the need to shit on them.

Is he possessed like Anders ?

The hell are these facial animations?

[@malkavian4120]

wdym? they are great. the only thing is off is lipsync

[@kkkk-uh1cu]

I wonder if there will be the betrayal arc per title, and if it will be him.

[@BasKon-w8w]

I don’t understand one thing. They say that they should kill the demon in the Fade ala Connor, but they are already in the Fade during that cutscene, aren’t they? The lighthouse is in the Fade. So how come nobody can see the demon?

[@livrk8005]

The Lighthouse is in the Crossroads, not in the fade. The Crossroads is a place kind of between Fade and Thedas. Therefore no one can see the demon nor can they do anything to the demon there.

Is the sound out of sync or is it the animations thats out of sync with the game sound? Lips sync is horrible in this video anyway.

[@Dawnwhisper]

I did notice the lip-sync wasn't perfect in the demo. Of course, this is an early access version we played - they might still be working on it, who knows

ooohhhhh yeah this one's right up my alley

Sooo just bad Anders romance retelling. Got it

How are the animations on par with games from 15 years ago?

[@nytesla_punk3327]

I mean, you're comparing games pre- Fallout 3 to this?
