Every bit of news we know about BioWare's Anthem so far including: how the single-player mode works with co-operative features, story and setting teases, game mechanics, developer interviews, and more!
What're you wanting to see in the game? What're you NOT wanting to see in the game? Thoughts on Praxley?

Hey! Glad to see a new video! Can't wait to see all of your Anthem content! I miss Andromenerds, though. 😞

I know you go through all the trouble of making a video, but is there a write-up of this? I'm one of those weird people that likes to read.
Thank you!

We'll see, I'm intrigued by what i've seen but I really want them to outline how the story will be presented, dialogue choice (just please assuage my fears about whether there will be any, I don't see any indication that there won't be but I worry), and character customization.
I actually think the entire interior part of that demo was a mock up cutscene rather than an actual player controlling the character, given the lack of UI and animations of the player's hands touching he environment in passing. So I don't think it's necessarily representative of much except that we'll probably be in first person in the hub.

Yeah I really need answers to these things, especially the dialogue options. For now I'm operating in a sort of "skeptical wait-and-see" mode.

As I've said a few times already. I have no interest in the game at this time. Once more information and gameplay is released, I might change my mind. For now, its a wait and see

When they say you can play the entire game solo, they mean you can play the game solo if you don't want any of the cool loot.

Color me skeptical at how "solo-friendly" this game will be. As a hybrid game, I suspect the 'best' experience will be with other players.

One possibility is that the solo/SP game story + dialogue options are all centred in the HUB and the story is moved forward by accepting missions. The studio has hired a number of writers but I can't see the game giving us any written/voiced dialogue between the co-op team while on a mission... or character development since you cannot take NPCs with you.
A related possibility is that our protag will develop a relationship with NPC Freelancers which you will only be able to talk to in the HUB. This scenario will bring me to boredom pretty quickly. Me, walking around in the HUB, talking to NPCs about who knows? Perhaps we can talk to other online players in the HUB but this leads to problems such as language barriers thus the necessity of enforcing region locks.
It's all speculation at this point.

It's all speculation at this point.
My speculation is that we could have two hub areas in Fort Tarsis. One will basically be Skyhold, a nexus for the story and a place for talking with characters. I suspect that we'll have a "squad" of characters similar in role to the advisors in a Inquisition (But hopefully with more dialogue), characters who we can talk with and get to know despite not accompanying us on missions. For example, a mechanic that aids in the upkeep of our mechs or some kind of handler. These sorts of characters could still have a "radio" presence on missions. There could also be NPC freelancers with a role in the story that we could meet both in the fort and outside it, though not characters we could actually take with us on missions. The second hub would be shared with other players, filled with vendors, bounty boards, and other activities that give players reason to congregate, since that seems to be something there is a demand for.
