A few days ago I completed Dragon Age 2. Incidentally, someone mentioned I should watch Miracle of Sound [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/miracle-of-sound]. MoS also did a Dragon Age 2 song [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/miracle-of-sound/2965-Age-of-the-Dragon-Dragon-Age-2-Song]. I just finished watching that song. In that song are a few fragments showing cinematics from the game. The first is a lengthy part about the battle with the Arishok and then there is another short cinematic about Isabela. I have not seen either of those 2 cinematics in the game. Does anyone have any idea about this?

Bioware, especially for promotional uses, frequently contracts Blur Studios [http://www.blur.com/] to create cinematics for them, and sometimes they are not included in the game at all. I'm guessing because there is no way for them to import a custom character into that level of cgi. There were two other cinematic trailers like this for Dragon Age: Origins that were similarly not part of the games content.

Those cinematics are from a CGI trailer, not the actual game.

More specifically, the extended trailer.


(I always feel sorry for the Arishock when I watch that. Damn, that guy was awesome.)

I see. Thanks for the info guys. It's a shame those cinematics are not in the game, because they are pretty awesome.
