holy shit I'm literally so fucking excited right now. I know I've made 3 dragon age posts in 3 days but I can't help it. I'VE BEEN WAITING 10 YEARS. I was in high school when inquisition came out. High school!
I'm a little bit concerned about only having 3 abilities for Rook (protagonist) and 3 for each companion. However, if its balanced well enough I actually use all the abilities I'll be pretty ok with it. Companion control was disabled for the preview.
I was a little disappointed in the Varric/Solas dialogue at the end. It wasn't bad but it felt like a missed opportunity. Varric should know by now that Solas has accepted the consequences of tearing down the veil. Talking about why this world is worth saving seems like a better line. The other dialogue seemed good. I liked rook's voice actor, I hope the voice actress is as good. Its confirmed that there will be 4 voice actors, male and female, with british and american accents.
But the visuals, holy shit. I understand now why all the tevinters look down their noses at southerners. That city was incredible! And Arlathan Forest looks fantastic too! The demon redesign is so fucking cool! I love how differently the rage and pride demons, as well as the wraiths, are animated.
