Cool beans.
Probably won't get it on release, Dragon Age 2 wasn't all that good and I haven't really played Mass Effect 3 since I finished it, but I'm guessing it'll at least be decent.

Dragon Age III: Inquisition is currently expected to be out in late 2013.
Alright, 2014. Gotcha. See you then. Insert standard about me liking ME3 except for last 10 minutes and that DA2 would have been fine if it had picked one of the 3 stories it tried to tell and stuck with it rather than giving the audience 3 half-assed stories to plod through, etc. Rally though, a longer dev time will probably help a lot here and until I see something truly unnecessary and tacked on (see also: ME3 multiplayer) I am going to assume that EA isn't dead set on ruining this franchise.

Loved DA:O, didn't fin DA2 *that* bad, though it got old really quick and the story and most characters were disappointing. I'm iffy, though hopeful Bioware has learned from the experience.
Multiplayer won't work at all UNLESS its along the lines of a Baldur's Gate style co-op, in which case that might actually work out great.

Overall, it will either be utter crap, or absolutely fantastic. There is no in-between here.

DA2 was as average and lazy a sequel as you can get. So I will approach DA3 with much caution.

Maybe they will lock Casey Hudson in a supply cupboard when it comes to finalising the ending. I think it would probably be for the best.

Really? Inquisition seems like a weird name to put with it. I would have expected revelation, or resurrection, or some cliche name as that, but never have I heard Inquisition used as the second name of something like a game or movie. I certainly was not expecting some sort of Inquisition.


PS I know I was ninja'd, I still had to get it out of my system.

You need three things to make a pattern.

This will either repair or damn Bioware.
Should be fun to watch.



WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE JADE EMPIRE!!!!!

Meh, as far as I'm concerned between now and Project Eternity there aren't any RPGs going to be released.

Bioware has been absorbed into the EA borg. Look for tacked on multiplayer, consolized interface, and Origin exclusivity in this one. Wait let me add more....day 1 DLC, online pass codes, "optional" multiplayer that is actually gamechanging, more money spent on marketing than development, more money spent on executives and shareholders than development, pretty pictures but shallow forgettable gameplay, or linear railroad gameplay into scripted sequences that make for good looking trailers, lack of support for mods or player made content and player run servers, in game marketing....etc etc etc.

Bioware is dead.
Disagree, Mass Effect 1-3 was amazing, Dragon Age 1-2 are my favourite RPGs of all time. I suspect one again Bioware will make an astounding game only to be crucified by the community for a pick or two in the crust of an otherwise brilliant game.
Fanboyism in its purest form:the games have widespread loathing and negative criticism, but they're really super special awesome and people are just knit-picking so they're opinions are wrong. No blind-faith praising of SWTOR while you're at it?

I just wonder what color explosions we'll get as endings this time.

I really loved Origins and the amazing world they came up with. I had so many questions to ask! What happened when the mages damaged the Fade and caused the blight? What was the history of Andraste's military campaign? What are the old gods of Tevinter like when not-a-demon? If they're real, is the maker real, and did he become a demon when the blight started in the Fade? Where did Flemeth come from and what is she trying to do (for that matter, what is she)? Where did Morrigan go? Is the Darkspawn Architect still out there?

And then the sequel was thirty hours of templars and mages making rude gestures at each other, plus political insight into the war on terror. It sounds like Inquisition is going to be a solid followup to 2, not 1. They have this actually imaginative and original setting and they just won't capitalize on it!

Between the firestorm over ME3's ending, the anger over DA2 (map reuse, dumbed-down potions, no gear changing on allies, every combat is waves of enemies, a plot that only makes structural sense after you finish the game, mostly,) and the falling swotr subscriptions, it really seems like Bioware's star is falling. I hope this game turns around while fearing it will finish off their damaged rep.

EA wont release games without multiplayer anymore, so have fun adventuring with friends.

I wish Bioware would cancel this game, or please let someone at EA pull the plug.

Eh, this thread has enough bile to choke even the most heartless dictator ;d Too bad I have to add to it, because, really, do we expect anything grand and note-worthy from Bioware anymore? EA control them, even if they deny it with all their might we still see it.

It CAN be great, it CAN be a deconstruction of religious philosophies and oppression, it CAN have cavernous depth, but it won't be and we all know it ;d

Sorry BioWare. My wallet broke up with you after what you did to DA2 and ME3. You just can't be trusted any more. You go behind boardroom doors and flirt with those execs too much.

Will Jim Sterling make a cameo?
That would be awesome.

I hope they fix the problem bugs with DA2 before they get this one out. That or they let us use a corrupted save. The only thing I didn't get to do was kill Meredith so hopefully that will be enough.

I hope they learned some lessons from DA2 and ME3, not going pre-order this ... but hope springs eternal.

PS. not that I regret my ME3 pre-order ... but only because of the multiplayer ... buggy as hell, but fun enough for long enough to be worth the money.
