And I believe Bioware Austin on SWTOR.

A shame since it's being designed for the PS3 and 360, it's undoubtedly massively held back. What a pity.

I feel like the armors they've been showing so far are very similar to Fable 1 armors. In fact the cartoonish look of the gameplay video looked like a next-gen Fable title. Only arguably better.
Gorgeous shot.
Too friendly looking!
That's possibly player character faces. Remember that Qunari is now a selectable race.

Gorgeous, where did you get this one Ridesh? It's not on the blog.

This gets me more excited about the next Mass Effect than Dragon Age, they'll get more distinctive enivorments with different planets than just countries.
Beautiful.

Does this have a 2014 release date? This and Witcher 3 in the same year is going to be awesome.

Looking spectacular. I truly believe that BioWare is out for redemption with this game. It just shows.
That is such an appropriate GIF. I can't wait for this. The original Dragon Age is one of my all time favorites.

Hopefully this thinking carries over into Bioware Montreal though...it's a different team after all.
I'm guessing their Facebook given the link and compression.

I'm pulling that the fan panel info was spot on about the focus on exploration and discovery for Mass Effect. No sense in running around 15 "uncharted worlds" that all look the same, I imagine they'd want to make each place look pretty distinct to make exploring it worthwhile.
Though I did run around those "same" planets in ME1 much more than I should have... So maybe it's not worth the resources.

Yea I figured that much but I can't find an official Dragon Age Facebook account, just fan accounts.
Edit: Found it

WRPG's this gen are going to be wicked.
It's partially their fault but they also had a very short amount of time to work on DA2, so I can't blame them completely, but yeah, they are listening to feedback so maybe they can make a good game again.
Maybe.
Looks like TW3 will murder DA3 in therms of graphics. I just hope they have now proper writting for it and actual good story. If it will be barf like DA2...
Its not a problem with DA2 team but with bioware itself. You could see that in their output after BG2.
They have gone completely shit in therms of story design.

I can't get hyped about this.
Something about that engine looks off. I think its the colors. Or the fact that I've seen The Witcher 3 and hated everything about the previous Dragon Age game.

Supposed to be Fall 2014. EA put out a statement that seemed to hint at a possible delay, but subsequent tweets from the team indicate that they're locked onto this year.

Looks great, although I already miss how stylized DA:O and DA2 looked.

Man, I really like this part of the console cycle. The first few years when you can actually expect an end product to look better than the first material you see. Unlike the end of a console cycle where just about anything gets downgraded until release.
Probably. The "import" feature appears to be a web site where you set choices in the previous games. You can also just look up a plot synopsis.

So hyped for this and the progress they've made is awesome. In fact, I'm so hyped that I'm going to replay DA2.

You can if you want, sure. Read a synopsis.

Honestly if you play Dragon Age 2 as an action adventure game with RPG elements it isn't that bad guys....
Yes. Yes, it is.
The abysmal third act plot and repeating environments are its gravest sins, neither of which really change if you consider it a different genre.
That being said, I own all the DLC for it, and have played through most of it almost twice. It's a 5 to me, if we're using a true 1-10 scale.

Perhaps the current Bioware has me a bit jaded, but from everything I read I can't shake the fact that it's Bioware's Skyrim, three years removed. I know it'll have the quintessential Bioware additions, but I can't shake the feeling that might not be enough.

These screenshots make me excited for the next Mass Effect and how that is going. I just want this game already.

New screenies! Dat hat
Don't know why, this looks like it has a fairly good chance of being the first decent dragon age game. I doubt we're going to get another ridiculous rush job troll game like DA2, and hopefully it's nowhere near as boring as Origins was.
How can I get hyped when the game is still so far away.
