As much as I wanted to I just couldn't get hyped for this, it just doesn't appeal to me in the videos the way Witcher 3 does, but with Assassins Creed being a broken mess, I've cancelled my pre-order for that (will probably pick up Unity when it's patched and cheap) and gone for Dragon Age. The reviews have tipped me over. Hopefully you are all right about it!

I got the items, but they don't show up in my Game Details on Origin.
btw they are healing weapons.

BSN doesn't even have an inquisition entry to track those items. I wonder if it will get one or it will all be origin exclusively.

Is "The Quest for the Red Lyrium Reapers" just down temporarily, or...?
David Hulegaard ‏@HulegaardBooks
Yes. Not quite ready. Very soon.
Judging from gear and party members he is good amount into the game so if you don't want get spoiled don't pop this one open.
It looks fine on PS4 if wondering that.

Weird.
Well. If I need to beat it again, I already know where everything is.
Well, Origin is the EA service from now on. BioWare is Origin exclusive.

ME3 is tied to Origin but is also in the BSN item tracker. We'll see.

I'm with you on this, myself and two friends put hundreds of hours each into ME3 co-op, and we're all getting this launch day.
I'm really looking forward to the campaign too, but it's the co-op that's got me all psyched up!

Cool, I want that loot. I remember Dragon Age Origins had similar loot bonuses for playing flash games and such.

I'm really looking forward to it, I may jump into it first since I want to join in with noobs like me so people won't get pissed and I can get better and comfortable playing it. I'll be on PC so I'm not sure how friendly they will be.
Nothing wrong with that, I put hundreds of hours into ME3's so I hope Bioware supports the multi in this as well as they did before.

We can all hide in a spoiler-free bunker together. All you can eat MRE's and no Internet access.
When it comes to these games I wanna know who's in my party and who I can fuck - everything else I go black on.
You should expect it to run like shit on a decade old hardware
My solution to ease the intense urge to watch preview streams is only listening to them instead. Unfortunately, I then start to feel like I am hearing too much and turn them off every time. It is the lesser of two evils.
They were showing off Hinterlands and all jazz in there. I go afk for moment and come back to get Orlais quest spoilers
Kinda dick move because, afaik, they didn't say they are going to jump all over the game during this stream.Also right on, dem priorities set straight!
The main page is just coming up broken for me. Odd it doesn't for everyone?
HEAVY INQUISITING

It's off-line for now, some fixes need to happen.

Dragon Age on PS4 stream

So I can still play the game? I don't really care about high settings, that's cool.

Hey guys, I'm not too well versed in how to predict performance from games and my GPU, will I be fine with a GTX 670?
You'll be fine to run at at mid-level settings.
Check this: http://www.game-debate.com/hardware/index.php?gid=592&graphics=GeForce GTX 670 and scroll down the page until you see "Can I Run It?".
Edit: actually, made that high.

Awesome, thanks for the help!
What that poor qunari has done to deserve that make up?

Wow, and with that I'm not on blackout. The game is pretty much out for me now. Tomorrow is Friday yay-yay-yay (tm), then the awesomeness of weekend, and Monday for the unlock at midnight (right?).

Pre-load tomorrow and then unlock at 9pm PST (at least for me).

I'm wondering if I should go PS4 digital on this...
I can possibly save about $15 + ~$8 on the usual physical here in canada ($69.99 - $8 in tax)
...Meaning I can net the game for $55
Plus I have $20 already on my PSN account, $15 of which was to go towards Geometry Wars, leaving another $5 meaning I can get the game for $50...
But in case I decide against Geometry Wars (fans have been posting mix reactions), I could just put the money towards Dragon Age which means I'd only need to spend $50 - 15 =
$35
At that point, I'd figure it's better to digital, even if I did wish to sell the game down the line... It's just a question of if I'm actually going to invest/play the game through.

So I've made a decision. For my stream, I'm going to cover up the quest info so people can't see it. Cause I know my eyes tend to wander to any words on a screen.
Ebay has a deal now for $10 off of $50 of games purchases. This includes Xbox Live Gift Cards. So, you can knock another $10 off of the price. Seems like a no brainer to buy it at that price!
I think you can turn that off.

So I played through the majority of my EA access time. I'm pretty sure that I have less than an hour left.
Girls and guys, holy shit, believe all the hype. There is so much to do in just the first area alone. Four dedicated hours in the Hinterlands and I've barely scratched the surface. And praise the combat designers because sword & shield feels soooo good now! Combat, overall, all on normal feels very balanced. My only complaint so far is that I miss the specific AI tactics like "scrapper", "defender" and "controller".
I've decided to pick up an XBO copy just so I can keep playing with my Inquisitor. Bring on Monday night!

I was already including that haha
Unfortunately, it seems I could do $69.99- $15 including the ebay code at best, minus another $10 if I skip Geometry Wars.
I may have to hold out for a cheaper physical copy, especially with Christmas deals around the corner. I feel like DA would be a nice physical game to own, and I really like the PS4 boxes lol
Are most of you going physical?
Edit: Damn, the ebay thing is U.S only. May need to see if someone on the B/S/T thread can hook me up
Tell me about it. My time's up and there still feels like so much to do.
Still a lot of blank spaces on that map too. This game is perfect/hell for us "have to clear every mission off the map" types.
I'm going digital (PC), but only because you can't get the physical digital deluxe edition for PC in the UK. I would prefer a boxed copy really, but at least this way I got to enjoy the benefits of Mexican Origin.

Skyhold? This isn't really criticial but I'd feel really pressed to rush the game until I got to Skyhold.
They were showing off Hinterlands and all jazz in there. I go afk for moment and come back to get Orlais quest spoilers
Also right on, dem priorities set straight!
Thanks for being in the chat!

Exactly. I'm right there with you on clearing every mission and filling in every corner of the map.
So...
you're saying that you want to rush to unlock Skyhold

Oh man, I'm getting crazy hyped (having a little too much to drink might have something to do with it). I didn't know too much about the game until today, when I saw a VideoGamerTV video, and my hype skyrocketed. I'm holding my purchase because I really want to be able to get this on the 18th (I'm in Europe) and not on the 21st because I have so much crap to do that weekend. Anyone knows if Greenmangaming will give us the keys before the 21st (for preload and stuff) even if we're in Europe (the game could be access through a VPN)? I couldn't buy it through the Mexican origin store and really, spending 59,99 or 69,99 on origin for it is a bit too much.

Have they said anything about their plans for expanding mp? It has a similar loot system as ME3 did but I'm wondering if we're still gonna get free maps + characters for Inquisition like we did on ME3.

Hey to each their own! After completing a few quests I had earned enough power to open other areas, but those are locked out of the trial. So you can definitely rush ahead and come back later on.

I had heard others talking about Skyhold, but coming to think of it, they were press.
