Not sure how the 'playing the game everyday' part should be evaluated, but it seems that they're at least playtesting parts of the game. Sounds like that to me too. I'm not sure how much we should read into that though. Remind me, what is Corinne's role in the team? She could be playing it for any number of reasons depending on what she is responsible for. For example, does a particular animation sequence run smoothly? However, if they are much later on in the the process, she could be playing through an actual section of the game to gauge her reaction and point out any flaws in, say, the dialogue. I'm hoping they will be thorough about this aspect so we do not get a repeat of: Solas: I told you not to drink from the Well. Inquisitor: ? (Player thinks: No you didn't, but you didn't want Morrigan to, you didn't want to and no one else wanted to but you said someone had to drink) Solas: Now everything you do, whether you know it or not will be for Mythal. Inquisitor/Player: (And you couldn't say that before I drank?) PW: Yes, I forgot to write that into his dialogue at the ToM. (And apparently no one spotted this in any of the play testing) She's the Game Director.

I feel like we are overdue for at least a piece of concept art. Last year we were getting those tweeted out every once in a while. Which, wasn't much, but it was always a nice surprise when it happened. Of course, the 2 people who ever posted them are both gone.The concept art dried up long before that though. I thought at the time it was so they didn't take focus off the comic series but, of course, even after that had finished the concept art didn't resume and this was long before MG departed the company. It does seem to me now that it probably dried up around the time that the decision was made to focus on making a single player game, which makes me wonder if much of the concept art related to what would have been multi-player modules in order to create some enthusiasm for characters/settings of multi-player and then once established, break the news to us that they would only be playable there. With the change of direction, perhaps it was thought wisest not to reveal anything more until they were ready to begin marketing in earnest.
Historical activities (in general) for game developement at Bio, normally follows a pattern such as: 0. Silence
1. Early twit and concept art posts by Bio
2. 1st teaser video 3. More twits 4. 2nd teaser video 5. Manager actively marketing the game (internal selective showings -- think DA:I). 6. Developer panels
7. Pre-orders info 8. Pre-launch game testing offer 9. Game launch
Anyone care to add/update/correct the list? (◔‿◔) _______________

two things come to mind here...
first the old "are we there yet?"
And second... "Lovely, we can freeze to death whilst digging for the bones of a madwoman" (from the Sacred Ashes trailer for DAO...and seeing as it's the same mountain)

Though I do always wonder if the Warden is one of the cut origins, since he doesn't really seem like an Amell or Cousland to me

Crowley is great, but he doesn’t really sound like son of the 2nd (equal) highest ranking noble in the land.

He could possibly have been intended to come from the Human Commoner origin, since that's the one that was cut late for being awful. Remnants of it still remain in the game code. (As opposed to the Avvar origin, which was cut early because it required a lot of assets that were never going to be used again and was deemed too expensive.)

I think he was just there to represent a ‘badass warden’ in general and not any particular origin.

Mark Darrah @biomarkdarrah So, if I live stream the Summer Game Fest, how does that work? It says costreaming is welcome but what about all the copyrighted music?
And no, I’m not currently expecting anything from Dragon Age. BUT I have specifically not asked anyone so maybe we will all be surprised…
