Dragon Age - Screens @ Worthplaying

Some things look amazing, others ... don't. But that isn't what matters to me with this one anyway.

Is that... Morenn?

Haha, my first thoughts exactly.

I wonder how big influence The Witcher had on later development of this game.

They can ramble about how mature, dark and gritty this game is ad infinitum but until I´ll see some juicy sex cards, I´m remaining sceptical :biggrin:.

As for the screenshots, exteriors seem rather bland, though some LOTRy structures seem detailed quite nicely.
So far, what I´ve seen from interiors, they seem barren, uninteractive and generally uninspired.

Didn't look amazing or looked bad? I was scanning through them trying to see the bad....not seeing it.....it all looks very good.

I saw one video showing a decapitation and I thought "great this game looks real gritty!" but I havent seen anything like that one clip since? I thought this game was supposed to be influenced by the George Martin world? Its starting to looks a bit too much like a NWN2 clone to me. Not that that is a terrible thing, but why bother?

The screens of teh folks standing on the cobblestone reminded me of Quake III engine games, where people walking looked like skating. In action it might be different, and like I said that is pretty far down my priority chain for a RPG.

The ironic thing about it is that it's arguably even more provocative that way. It reminds me of Burlesque where the "tease" was the critical element of the "striptease.

For a game I've been waiting for forever, and a new IP for Bioware, these screenshots just seem a bit stale. As someone above said-looks more like NWN2 than anything else, and that game's several years old. Like Mike, my interest in this title isn't based on having smashing graphics, but these screenies aren't breaking any ground atmospherically or plotwise, either. Hopefully the game itself will make these criticisms irrelevant.

looks good from where I'm sitting

How far from your monitor is it? :)

Anyway, I don´t care about graphical intensity, what bothers me is the art direction, which so far seems severely lacking in the creative department.

Haha... yeah, they just need to give her a couple of big feathered fans then I guess.

Regarding Dragon Age, I see that they updated their official site with the Origin Stories Section. It's flash-based and looks cool enough. Apparently there will be some videos for each origin. Coming soon.

Lol, that City Elf looks like a bride carrying a big knife. Kinda looks like she just cut-up her husband. :p
EDIT: Silly me. After reading the origin description, I find out she is a bride. :p
