A ripple in the pond, an echo across the internet, all the good people of the world whispering and shouting, "Do not rush this. Do not mess this up."
First off, this is coming from EA. I have nothing against EA. I have nothing against Origin. I will buy any game if the story is good, the gameplay is tight, it is relatively bug free, the game actually interests me, and the price is fair. I simply have not bought anything besides TOR and Mass Effect and Dragon Age because nothing else has interested me, or I could get it for cheaper on Steam.
Second off, this is coming from Bioware. We've all expereinced Mass Effect 3s ending, the rush job that is DA 2, and the copy and paste that is TOR. This is a developer that has to prove (at least to us) that it can still make creative, interesting games with awesome story and gameplay.
Am I put off by a long developement period? No. To me, it a sign of care and respect for the game being made. Hell, I am still patiently waiting for Half-Life 3, if Valve ever decides to make it. So take all the time you need Bioware, and make it count.

Well at least they're not rushing this one, or I hope they aren't. Dragon Age 2 was rumored to have an 8 month development cycle and look where that got them.
Even so I don't think I can trust Bioware at this point. I enjoyed ME3 (yes even the ending) but it was so incredibly linear that if I wasn't so invested in the characters and story I probably wouldn't have finished it. I don't want another linear game that gets labelled as an RPG just because your characters level up. I want a big world to explore and secrets to uncover, not have my hand held as the game walks me down one narrow corridor after another.

YAY! VARRIC IS BACK!
Dragon Age 2 was utter crap but if they keep nothing else canon except Varric it will be a happy day indeed! Dude was an awesome bro.
Really this is basically Bioware's last chance. I have no hopes for this game because Bioware completely forgot how to make both games and good story as evidenced by the horribly outdated assets, horrible balancing and barely functional mechanics. The story... well the less said about how stupid that got the better ey Mass Effect fans?
If this does not suck a giant donkey dick I will be pleasantly surprised, but I hold no false hope. What we basically saw here is a CG trailer about different factions going to war. I will guarantee you that this will be a linear path through a dull story culminating in a horrible reset to status quo ending. That the factions will barely factor into the story at all not to mention that it will once again look like a piece of ass with lackluster combat.
You have now reached your recommended dose of daily pessimism.

Were you referring toAmaror said:
or
as your reference point for Morrigan's great beauty? She was pretty badly presented prior to appearance mods. DA3 looks better.
As for the thing everyone is spoiler tagging about for, just keep in mind that DA2 proved that David Gaider doesn't give a fuck about your choices.
and Morrigan's child was my first thought too.
I hate to break it to you but the original two dragon ages were generic fantasy too, maybe a tad more brown and racist (which isn't something you can really show in a teaser trailer).endtherapture said:
OT: Excited, Dragon Age is made by the good part of bioware so I have hope.
My f*cking Warden better appear with Morrigan, otherwise the ending of Witch Hunt means absolutely nothing. Varric looks good, albeit I didn't really recognize him, and I'm looking forward to being the Inquisitor...Kind of want to have my background be as a Seeker or Templar, those are perspectives we've never gotten to see...
If they try and make this open world like TES they will fail, utterly and completely. Bioware (before the fall) and current Bioware have never been open world developers. The best thing they can hope for is a return to form and nailing down what it was they have always been good at. Companions, and the clever implementation of choice in the game world.
I've always believed Flemeth was a sort demigod-esque deity and a close servant of the maker. To see what looks like her dragon form leading demons from the fade (the makers first children).... alright Bioware, I'm interested, but you have a high mountain to climb. Don't fuck up.

A promising trailer as far as trailers tell you shit, and it looks like they haven't fucked with Morrigan's character too much, but by far the best news for the game is the long development time.
The Qunari look so fucking badass. Who the hell would not run in fear from one of those guys?
The trailer looks sexy and awesome like I expected. Now to wait for actual gameplay videos to see how the game will really be.

Wait, so was that the grey warden from the first game at the end of the trailer?
I mean, there were so many different ways his or her story could have ended, but still I personally hope it was. I mean, if Morrigan IS a main part, or possible main part, than the Grey Warden can be as well. Or, when in doubt, it could be a save transfer thing like Mass Effect.
And I definitely disagree with her being brought back as nothing more than fanservice, she wasn't incredibly connected to the plot.
All of that being said, I have yet to fully play DA2 and from what I've heard about it and the first few hours I'll wait for reviews before I get excited for DA3.

It's only a pity non of that was in game footage, many the bit at the end with the lady walking towards the screen but that is about it
But we shall all wait and see // I did also see some kick ass character I'd like to cosplay as
Plus, when did there start to be guns in Dragon age?
