If Anthem is anything to go by, the next Dragon Age game is going to be extra gorgeous. Very nice what they're getting out of Frostbite in that gameplay trailer.

Congrats to all my colleagues working on @anthemgame ladyiolanthe ladyiolanthe
It sure looks pretty! Question: lots of really nice generic plants and geological textures in this game, so I'm curious... Since these assets now exist, might they be used in any BW game rather than reinventing the wheel every time? Mike Laidlaw @mike_Laidlaw
Such a thing is certainly possible, yes, so long as the overall aesthetic matches.

I look at ANTHAM and how gorgeous and full of life it is and it just makes the wait for DA4 that much harder. Talk about a one track mind.

Watched the Gameplay to see what kinda DA4 we could speculate about. 1. That guy has too many face wrinkles. 2. Underwater!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know how that could come into play in Tevinter, but maybe some epic water battles that require abandoning ship?

That's what happens to faces exposed to elements.

That's what happens to faces exposed to elements. My point was that there are irl people who look like that and it's cool to see someone who reflects that in a video game, when often video games seem to default to whatever's conventionally attractive.

Mike... Buddy. Level with me. They are doing great work over at @anthemgame and all, but what have YOU been working on? #GiveMeDragonAge Mike Laidlaw @mike_Laidlaw
Really tuning up my overlays for twitch. And I finally found a venue for my interpretive dance cycle. Hanna Fenimore @mesmerizedish
can't decide if I'm more excited for your interpretive dance or @eplerjc's spoken-word folk album Mike Laidlaw @mike_Laidlaw
Just wait until we combine the two.

Man when I first saw footage of MEA I was like. "WOW! I can't wait to see how pretty DA4 will be!"
And now that I've seen Anthem (even if that was 4k) I can't wait to see how absolutely-freaking-gorgeous DA4 will be!!! It is hard to believe that DAI was made on the same engine. I know they've done a lot of work to it.... But still, amazing how much things have changed once they no longer had to worry about xbox 360 and ps3.
Anthem looks really impressive. A total showstopper and attention grabber. My husband was completely uninterested about their new IP. I tried talking to him about it this morning and he didn't want to listen. Then I brought up the gameplay video on our tv and he was awestruck. He is crazy hyped for Anthem now.
I'm soooo excited to see they are planning to launch it in 2018 too. All the sooner for me to get DA4 ;D

One and a half minutes of hand picked gameplay footage does not mean the entire game will look tremendous. In my opinion, enthusiasm should be tempered, as Bioware has disappointed in many respects in their last several games over the past 7+ years.

(Also, filthy casual here with 513 hours logged as my Inquisitor. You cannot shame me for I have none. )

Hmm... Well...
Let's hope and pray that the new Dragon Age will not take too much "not so good" stuff from Anthem.
What I mean by that is.. Let's hope the new DA will not turn out to be a multi-player/MMO with some SP slapped on it, like the (admittedly sparse) information Anthem seems to point to.
If that's the case it will be the first game in the Dragon Age series I positively will not buy.
Other than that, we can only speculate how the new DA will look like, so I cannot say too much about that.

I don't know how that could come into play in Tevinter, but maybe some epic water battles that require abandoning ship? If playing as a mage have a skill tree devoted to water. Creating a waterspout. A whirlpool. Have a waterball. A spell called the flood. Another spell called the tidal wave. I like it already. I can see my mage creating havoc for the enemy.

Those sort of spells remind me of the Tsunami's and Giant Water serpents you could call in the Final Fantasy Series. Exploring the water in Thedas could give us more animals unique to Thedas. Water Hunting.

We know from one of Maryden's song (I think? It's been a while) that parts of Arlathan are supposedly underwater. Can you imagine underwater exploration of ruins? How awesome that would be? Heck, I'd settle for just being able to swim in-game.

I guess I'm just a fan of exploring nooks and cranny as long as there's a reason to do so (even if that reason is just about finding more information to advance the story). As for breathing underwater, it's a world with magic, so I don't see this as being an impossibility, either through a spell or potion.
