To be honest I beat Deus Ex: Human Revolution a few days ago and the ending was essentially the same thing XD

Even the original Deus Ex kinda was.

At least reaching the original Deus Ex's endings was more complicated than choosing what button to press. Not that much more complicated, but still. The endings were also more different from one another than Human Revolution and pre-EC ME3.

Recording of one of the DAI demos at Comicon. Again, no new info, but here it is if you want to watch:

Sorry for double post, but Elfquisitor Mage screenshot. Also featuring what appear to be Varric, Casandra, and Solas's party member portraits.

Closer look at that Inquisitor's face.

Weird, a non-Dalish tattoo.

I assume that it is Dalish, since the elf Inquisitor is.

I don't think we've ever seen that tattoo before.

I meant a non-traditional Dalish tatoo.

Watched the 30-Min Demo.

As much as I like Jessica M. when she's doing other things, I felt like her commentary got a bit 'Captain Obvious' and preaching to the choir at a few points. But, I suppose she's meant to be selling the game, not delivering a news Update.

Anyway, things I noticed...

  • In the early part of the demo with the Dragon, 'Dorian's Robes' were in the inventory. Just thought that was worth noting. It seems that there will be a specific 'Inquisitor's Armor' Set.

  • Dorian mentions that the amulet looks like '...the one we made in Minrathas'. Either 'we' refers to Dorian and Alexeus or Dorian and Inquisitor. I'm curious about Minrathas. Isn't that where Fenris was a slave? I'd laugh if he and Dorian were friends since Dorian is 'the Pariah' amongst Magisters.

  • Sera mentions 'How he won' when talking about the Elder One or whatever. Seems she might have a past history? Maybe her clan was destroyed by it?

  • At the same inventory screen where Bull is getting his armor, they pass over various ability trees. Knight Enchanter, Disrupt, and some others. Might be worth looking through but I need to get going for a family thing.

While I have the time I'll post an update on by Ps3 save editing.

  1. Varric can use Assassinate just fine after all.
  2. Varric can use Daggers and Dagger talents just fine. Bianca remains on Varric's back instead of being removed from his model.
  3. A Mage Hawke can use the sword skills from Both the Weapon and Shield and Two-Handed Weapon tree just fine. Mana is use instead of stamina to activate the talents.

I don't think Sera is Dalish.

[up][up][up]She's not, so far as I know. She certainly doesn't have the tattoos, and her "party girl" attitude also makes it kind of unlikely.

[up][up]How so?

Yes, if you can cheat and give mages things they're not supposed to have then there's not much point to warriors. Or you could edit the game to give a warrior all the mage abilities and say mages are useless.

@Lance: Minrathous is the capitol of Tevinter and one of the few cities remaining in the Imperium. It's not a terrible coincidence that both Danarius and Dorian are from there.

[up]Oops. I think I was confusing it with that Island that the Quinari and Tevinter are constantly in war over.

EDIT:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPuzDwGHIG8&feature=player_embedded SDCC 2014 Demo but with, what looks like, a Male Human Rogue Inquisitor. Voice samples in there too.

[up][up]There are plenty of cities in the Imperium, but they're only seen on the map. Only Minrathous gets namechecked.

[up]That place is Seheron.

Third fan-voiced character. Her name is Visas Marr Lady Corteau. Again, it's possible that she's only fan-voiced in the German dub.

Rogues look like fun. I loved the devs reaction when they accidentally killed the dragon.

New interview with Mike Laidlaw. Something interesting I found:

My goal with Inquisition is to have stuff that people don't find. I actually sent out a little demand: every single level must have at least one cave no one ever tells me to go in. No quests, no pointers, nothing. I don't care where you put it: I don't want to know where it is! Obviously, the team took that to heart and went even further.
