Getting this thread up nice and early so it's here when people need it. This thread is for: - A place to hide from spoilers.
- A place to 'go dark' without actually leaving BSN.
- Chilled out conversation only.
- No dramas.
- No spoilers of any major significance.
Just laid back conversation about Dragon Age or your excitement. If the conversation leads to exploring something that 'might' be spoliery, please spoiler tag it. And the first rule of 'the Lighthouse', is you do not talk about the Lighthouse.

Most likely, I won't get it until after christmas, in case someone decides to give it as a present. However, that means that either:
It comes out closer to December: I’m less likely to be spoiled and I have to wait less before playing it myself. On the other hand, this also means less time to iron out any bugs that may appear at launch.
It comes out closer to summer: I’m more likely to be spoiled and/or get impatient. However, it also means a longer time for them to iron out any bugs that may appear.
Not sure which I’d prefer… At anyrate, nice to know I won’t have to go completely without this place.

Ha ha, thank you for setting this up. It is much nicer to have a place here on BSN where you can hang out when the spoilers start to hit the internet. Just started a new Inquisitor today, first one with a bow. I think that this one with go along with the chantry a bit, just so I get to see some new things in the game. It will be fun.

Yes, the time for hiding is quickly approaching. Which seems rather ironic after so long with no news whatsoever.

I skipped the OP and literally just about started talking about The Lighthouse. (Only in low-spoiler ways, I promise!)

We use to have months and months to fish little tidbits of info from then twitter and stuff like that. Haven't quite adapted to this quick turnaround. I want to be out in the open world a little bit longer. Guess I'll just run into something that I rather wish I did not know and then take that as a que to hide in here.

The only other thing I'm really keen on knowing ahead of time (to avoid surprises and/or frustration) is how the save system works. I hope they don't follow MEA and do away with quicksaving and have only checkpoint/auto-saves during main missions.

Well, I have read one thing that I wish I did not know... I don't want to hide yet. It is too early. Will apply a thread carefully approach and see if I can walk in the wild a little bit longer.

Yup going to stick mostly to this thread I think. Still would like to know more about combat, CC, dialogue options, skill trees, etc. But I already know more about the story/characters than I did going into DAI.

Some gameplay stuff from the GI magazine: Every classes has every functions mapped to the same button. So block/parry, heavy attack, weapon swap, etc use all the same thing. Easy muscle memory if you play something else. You can "bookmark" combos, not sure exactly what that means. Going by the description sounded more like quick dash/evade do not interrupt combos. Warrior can throw their shield has their ranged attack option. Rogue has bow. Mage has staff.
Mage 2nd weapon type is magical daggers.
Range attacks are effective against enemies Barrier (aka blue bar) Heavy attacks are effective against armor (aka yellow bar)
Warrior block with their shield. Rogue parry. Mage create a shield that auto-block attacks as long as they have mana to sustain it.

Can't believe we went from not knowing anything to already having to hide here in less than a week, that's so fast! On one hand I really want to read the whole Game Informer article, but on the other, I don't want any story spoilers! And there's still a lot about basic gameplay, late game and even about the companions (without spoilers) that I want to know about... hopefully they will tell us the release date soon, the non-spoiler wait is going to kill me

I bailed on the Jackdaw stream once people were saying there were spoilers but before I left I thought they mentioned voice pitch sliders. Can anyone confirm?

Like DAI, you have four voices to choose from. 2 Masculine and 2 Feminine, one being North American and one UK accent for each of the two categories.

This CC sounds incredible! I remember people requesting the pitch sliders for DAI,so I guess it was in a the backlog for Veilguard.
