Jaal Ama Darav (Official Thread)

A spin on Yennefer's classic lilac and gooseberries 👌🏻

10th Page Update!
(now with actual news!   )

Wow guys, this is my second one today!
So first off, a general news update:

Nakmor Drack's bio has been released.
And, they'll be releasing a video tomorrow on weapons and skills!!! It'll be the first in a series of videos focusing on gameplay:

Topics of discussion in the last 10 pages include:

1. PC specs, and what they might be... a more recent tweet suggests we should get that info in the next couple weeks!
2. Why comparing new characters to old ones is silly (basically people are upset that Jaal is supposed to be the 'new Garrus'. Despite the writers expressly telling us this isn't the case.)
3. Some discussion about Drack, because his bio dropped.
4. If Drack is a soldier, what will Jaal's combat class be? We know he's a sniper, but will he also have tech abilities, or biotic ones? Or some sort of space magic unique to the Angara/Andromeda?
5. Our feelings about the video tomorrow, and the kind of info we'd like before launch.
6. And feainn  just embarassed herself by accidentally asking Mike Gamble of we're going to see Jaal handling his penis soon. (Apparently a 'wink wonk' is a penis? I didn't know either):
Solas would be proud.

Edit: typos and spacing errors

So the 15 minute uncut gameplay video Shinobi said was coming isn't a thing now?

That was in response and I still think y'all are reading too much into it. Since he said "you said wonk" instead of "you said wink wonk"

Not this week at least. Tomorrow they'll be showing a combat video though. You know, because why show things not shown yet that people want when you can just show more of what you've mostly shown?

Haha see? He knew LOL

You're assuming though that most people want to see other stuff compared to combat, expecially based on the fact they didn't fully shown it yet. You prefer the first, and I'm fine with either,  but I don't know if most would prefer the first.

... Or he didn't and just thought it was funny... Sigh, OK that's enough forum for me today.

Still salty he didn't show in TW3 even though they originally had him in it. I understand him being in it wouldn't have made sense but Iorveth was my tru bro and boyf not Roche (though I love him too :'))

Wow 3 pages happened while I was typing up a post. D:

I'm so slow. I thought "wink wonk" was just a Homestuck meme. TIL

I hope we can recruit Jaal quite soon in the game. Probably it'll take some time, we will likely have to go to his home planet and do some quest before that. But I just hate how you have to wait until you can recruit some companions. DAO playthroughs are always misery without Zevran and it takes way too long to recruit him. Origin, Ostagar, Lothering and one of main quests after that. Tons of content without him. Same with Legion in ME2 it takes forever. I don't want Jaal to be like that.
