hogso Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 ELF BUMMING SIMULATOR 3 aka Expected release date - 7th October 2014 I know there's another Dragon Age thread but it is old and yeah I wanted to make a new one for obvious reasons Hopefuilly a return to form after the enjoyable first and not so second game in the series. It will feature large open world environs unlike the previous two games (there's lots of 'skyrim-esque' references been around for years, since it was known simply as Dragon Age III) - fans of the series will be excited to know it will include Ferelden, Orlais, and the land inbetween. The latest news on the game, and the prompt for this thread, is that there will be an openly gay character who will be part of the main cast. He will be available to players as a potential lover, which given Bioware's track record, frankly, I can not wait for. Gameplay will feature both the action based 3rd person/over the shoulder combat of Dragon Age 2, aswell as a 'tactical mode' more akin to traditional dungeon crawlers, and the combat that was available in Dragon Age Origins. There's been a couple of novels, which are canon, filling in the story from the time Dragon Age 2 finished, and there will be the option to import files for story continuity of some description in to DA:I. Personally, I am most excited by the return of Morrigan! She won't be in your party, but will form a major part of the story, but as friend or foe remains to be seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Absolutely loved DA:O, But DA2 was probably the biggest dissapointment I've had in a game. This is definitely one to wait for some decent reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunRickyRun Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 DA2 & the roleplaying aspects of ME3 were terrible. I hope it's a return to form for Bioware as Dragon Age Origins and ME2 were two of the best games of the last gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Meh Bioware Never been the same since EA got their grubby hands on them I hope its epic like some of their older games were such as Kotor but i seriously doubt it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Ordered my PS4 and pre-ordered this specifically for some elf bumming. It's been far too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilGibson Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) Reviews on this one are looking pretty favourable on the whole. Most reviewers saying you get 85 - 90 hours play out of it. Think this might be where I lay my cash down for a game this month. Edited November 12, 2014 by PhilGibson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 85-90 hours? I was hoping for something more like 92 hours. Might cancel my pre-order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frobisher Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) I very want this game. Unfortunately, I've already preordered GTA V and that's all the game I can afford at the moment. This'll have to wait until Christmas. There's no way I'm getting a wink of sleep on Christmas Eve! Edited November 12, 2014 by stwefano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Ive asked for this, pro evo and GTA for Xmas. Do I need to have played the others or will a YouTube recap video suffice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) Ive asked for this, pro evo and GTA for Xmas. Do I need to have played the others or will a YouTube recap video suffice? I have purposefully restricted myself from watching many videos at all about Inquisition. But I think it is safe to say that you'll be fine. I wouldn't bother trying to search youtube for story recaps or anything. If you have a PC capable or PS3 still though, you should definitely play Dragon Age: Origins as it is sa-weeeeeeeeet Edited November 12, 2014 by hogso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) I had DA:O on ps3 but it got lost in the never ending pile of shame. No way of playing it now though as only got my ps4. Edited November 12, 2014 by Ingram85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the same boat. I plan to read the plot synopsis of the other games on Wikipedia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frobisher Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 DA:O was great. I vaguely remember the storyline, something about forces of darkness and dragons and insane mages locked in a tower. DA2 was lame. You play a guy who runs around a city doing errands in the same three dungeons for about thirty years and then you are the city's hero and saviour.
