Halman posted:Yeah its great. Chantry is totes on the ball RE: Mages. #notallmages Seriously tho we always have such a biased viewpoint because the protagonist of every game if they're a mage never has any trouble with demons. If you play a mage it should force you to have dream sequences where depending on your choices you get tempted by various types of demons and can get a game over if you fail to realize that you're dreaming or whatever. As it stands you're like "what's so hard about being a mage dudes? how come every single other mage is a psychopath and i'm totally fine and cool??"

HIJK posted:there is some good in this world Mr Frodo! But Dragon Age 2 had gorgeous graphics. The characters were all interesting (not always pleasant or smart, mind you, but interesting), and I loved that they were definitely NOT all friends with each other. I loved the Home Base aspect where you could meet each character personally and hash it out with them. I also loved the specializations - being a Force Mage was loving bad rear end and had a move where you literally picked up dudes and smashed them against the pavement like an enormous monster baby. Or you could scatter them like ninepins. Or drag them kicking and screaming to the centre of a vortex. I loved the Story Telling framework of it, gave it a kind of swashbuckling Princess Bride feel to it. I thought the Mage/Templar dilemma was legitimately difficult - the presence of blood mages and abominations makes the Circle seem necessary, but Meredith proved that the Circle is only effective if the Templars give a poo poo about their mages, and religious fanatics who think magic is the devil are the worst people for the job. And as sucky as people think Dragon Age 2 was, from what it sounds like, people who go into Inquisition after playing DA2 go in with poo poo-ton more context and background than those who didn't.

Anyone know how the combat is looking to be? The initial videos I saw it looked pretty action-y but I've heard some mixed reports that it just gives the illusion of action and you just hold down an auto-attack button. I don't really care about RPG plots, but if it's fun I'm game.

It is the god given right of every mage to look down and treat as inhuman filth any non mage. Sometimes you have to summon a few demons and have them slaughter millions to make an omelette. You would think no more crushing ants under your foot than you would of killing non mages so you can cast a spell.

Modern processors have specific instructions sets for encryption, it really costs nothing. Not sure about the DRM they are using, but the LotF is just coming from one video with no data to back it up on much computational power it is taking.

I don't really care about RPG plots, but if it's fun I'm game. Gameplay is really about what difficulty you're playing it. If you play on easy, you can basically just play the game with your toes while reading the thread nonstop and win. If you play on Normal, you might get hurt now and again, but you probably won't need to use the tactical camera or pause for the vast majority of encounters. Hard and Nightmare are designed around making you stop and think about each fight. The Bioware Twitch streams have, in my opinion, shown a pretty good sample of gameplay. Watch the ones where Laidlaw is playing to get a sense of what Hard mode is like for someone who pretty much knows what they're doing.

I just wonder if it's going to fall into that weird zone DA2 did where it wanted to be more action-y but was still stuck in the DA:O tab targeted autoattack world. Edit: I was looking through a couple of videos. Are there any that showcase melee? It seems both gameplay videos involved ranged fighters.

As it stands you're like "what's so hard about being a mage dudes? how come every single other mage is a psychopath and i'm totally fine and cool??" But it's... not that hard a thing to deal with? Abominations, generally, are rare. As are blood mages. The fluff calls out the fact that Chasind, Dalish, and all kinds of places all over the world get along fine and don't get abominations trying to kill everyone. A mage who is trained to resist demonic invasion is a veritable fortress against being taken over, even if that training isn't the chantry's (in some info, it's actually said that the Circle's teachings are so conservative that they actively get worse educations than non-circle mages, because the Chantry is afraid that if the Circle taught better the mages could rise up. This is why the Arcane Warrior, Rift Mage, etc specializations were all forgotten.)) There are even mages in some nations who are capable of contacting positive spirits, bartering deals with them, then purging their bodies of the spirit after using their power. Literally the only time mages fall to abominations is when either A: Forced to by an outside influence (Uldred's mind control), B: They willingly accept the deal (Uldred going 'hey, yeah, I want your power'). Blood magic is also something that mages have to willingly go learn - but it's strong, and when the Templars are literally going into your room at night and raping you, then saying that if you don't be quiet about it they'll make sure you're stripped of all emotion then yeah, you'll go to it. Being a mage isn't half as dangerous as the game makes it out to be. Mages, themselves, are incredibly dangerous, but just a bit of training and they're capable of handling most 'demonic' threats. Every Mage who has succeeded at their Harrowing has proven they can resist demons in the demon's home turf, and are not a danger unless they choose to be.

I think Cameron (thinner and shaven compared to Laidlaw, if you don't recognize him) has a video where he uses a dwarf warrior. He stands as a bit of contrast to Laidlaw as he's a player who bites off more than he can chew more regularly.

swimming anime posted:#notallmages As for the existing games not having Magic Protagonists fight demons, I file it under Necessary Game Mechanics. Same as how if you're a mage in Dragon Age 2, you can swoop in and save Templars and Guardsmen with REALLY OBVIOUS MAGIC SPELLS or summon lightning right in front of a watching Templar and nobody figures out you're an apostate until the second half of the game. Where the gently caress did they think my LadyHawke's lightning bolts were coming from? Her wizard's sleeve?

There are even mages in some nations who are capable of contacting positive spirits, bartering deals with them, then purging their bodies of the spirit after using their power. Nations like Tevinter - corrupt cesspools where mages make everyone suffer - make a good argument for the Circle, an institution which (in THEORY) is there to train mages to resist demons and develop magic to serve the nation as well as protect them from the superstitious public. But in practice it's putting the mages under the power of an institution that misunderstands, fears and hates them. It'd be like sending your kid to Hogwarts where Mr. Dursley is the Headmaster. A Circle works only as well as its Templars do. If you have Templars who understand magic, are personally invested in the safety of the mages, and listen to their concerns, then yeah, sure, the Circle is an awesome alternative to letting your kid accidentally summon a sex demon. But when 90% of your new Templar hires are Andrastian fundies, the Circle becomes a prison.
