Shantara, isn't patience a virtue?
Fafnir Patience, I've never heard of it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> MysterD knows how to be patient. He says he can play many games until it comes out. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I have trouble trying to keep up w/ the barrage of games as is, nevermind w/ worrying about games at least 3 years from now! I still ahve NOT installed my copy of SW:KOTOR. I still don't have a copy of System Shock 2. I still ain't got DD or BD. I still don't have a PC w/ a shader-based vid card so I can run PoP:SOT, DX:IW & SH3 -- to name a few shader based games. I still don't have Doom 3. Don't have HL2 yet (or a PC that could run it, too). Don't have Vampire: The Masquerade -- Bloodlines. That's just a few of the games I want that I've missed! I do like the idea that Dragon Age will have separate single player and multiplayer campaigns. If is as good as everybody hopes then both campaigns could well be worth playing.
Wait......Wait.....Wait.....Wait.....Wait........Still no Dragon Age!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
Shantara <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> It's too far down the road to think of -- especially since it'll be on a NEW Engine!

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. Prince of Persia: Warrior Within comes out soon -- though, it don't look to be MUCH more combat-orientated, unfortunately <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> (And HL2 is OUT <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />?!)
Übereil Came out today. Avaialble on Steam (online) and at Retail stores now.

That's just a few of the games I want that I've missed! See I told you that 3 years was ages to have to wait for Dragaon Age (at least 3 years makes it sound like ages too). Just a few that you have missed, huh? Looks like more than a few to me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> No wonder you said you could wait on Dragon Age. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'm not sure you'll be finished when it does come out. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Shantara <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Yeah, I need to get moving w/ these games I own that are installed! Oh no, the list goes on and on. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Think Dragon Age, Dragon Age, Dragon Age. Got it? Dragon Age is the word. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I know about the new engine. Does anybody know anything about the new classes and creature that they are creating for it? Come on MysterD, Fafnir, Ubereil, feed me some info. I want to know something about these. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Shantara <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Fafnir, you wandered in talking about needing to finish PS:T. You got into the wrong lair big Dragon, but do you know anything about the new classes and creatures.
Since I have to wait at least 3 years I want to know whether it is going to be worth the wait or not. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Wait.....Wait....Wait....Wait....Still waiting on Dragon Age. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> I don't think it is going to make it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

To Shantara:
I do not know a single thing. They are very tight lipped right now. Not even Mr. Miller can pry any info out of those guys at Bioware.
You'd have more luck getting a Quaker to buy a Television and watch it. Then get any info about DA from Bioware right now.

Rats, should have known Bioware would be that way. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />
Thanks for the info, Fafnir. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Guess I'll just do what Ubereil said forget about Dragon Age until it comes out. Then I'll wait another year or so for the price to drop and at that point if it is any good I'll buy it and play it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
With info like that, you can wander into the wrong lair anytime as far as I am concerned. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Übereil Sounds cool to me. I would love to see more races made available. There is one that I would love to see added, but I can't think of what it is called now. I think it would be cool to be able to play a Drow, but I would play her as a good Drow, maybe a rebel like Nathyrra was. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I also hope they come up with some really cool portraits that you can use for your character. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Have you looked at the few screenshots Bioware has posted?

Are the screen shots cool and unique looking or do they look like more NWN stuff?

from what I've seen of it, it looks like NWN, only that it looks a LOT better.

Do you have a party in Dragon Age? (Back to Top)
Dragon Age is a party-based game with a wide variety of interesting NPCs to choose from. Players will be able to interact with their party members as never before, forming friendships, romances and rivalries. Players will have full control over party members during combat (similar to Baldur’s Gate). Sounds good to me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> You can create one or more starting characters and you may choose whether you want to join up with other characters you meet in your travels. Sound REALLY Good. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'd like to create more than one character from the get-go. Mad cool.
[quote] 1.03: What is the storyline of Dragon Age? (Back to Top)
For the first time, you choose how your character’s story begins and that choice changes how your story unfolds. From a grim barbarian wanderer who is the last of his kind, to an exiled dwarven prince betrayed by his brother; each of the many 'origin' stories spins its own heroic tale of intrigue and romance.
Each origin story completely changes the setting and events of the game's first chapter and unlocks different storylines, villains, romances and items throughout the course of the game.
As you play, your actions shape the destiny of the world. Unite a powerful kingdom under your wise and just rule, enslave nations beneath the tyranny of your powerful necromancy or forge a legend of your own making.
Hero or villain, the choice is yours. Dragon Age features an awesome storyline and epic exploration in the BioWare RPG tradition. *begins to drool*

Übereil I agree Ubereil. It looked alot like NWN to me too especially one of them. They did seem to have more depth to them and not be as superficial as NWN. Shantara <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Sound REALLY Good. I'd like to create more than one character from the get-go. Mad cool. But Sharwyn won't be there to see you through. Guess it is good bye to Sharwyn and hello to new girl in Dragon Age. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> The whole thing seems to have alot of replay possibilities to it. Does that sound like there will be no solo playing to you? I like the idea of full control over character during combat. If I have to have a party that is the only way to go.

Guess it is good bye to Sharwyn and hello to new girl in Dragon Age. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Pretty much. Fine w/ me. I could always create a girl like Sharwyn, if I can create more than one character from scratch :-X The whole thing seems to have alot of replay possibilities to it.
Does that sound like there will be no solo playing to you? I'm sure if you wanted, like most Bioware games, you probably could go all alone -- but, it's probably not recommended, of course. I like the idea of full control over character during combat. If I have to have a party that is the only way to go.
Shantara <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> If the AI is as good as NWN:HOTU's, then I see no problem w/ NWN:HOTU's Hencehman system where having full control over myself and SOME control over the party by barking some orders and having control over their inventory. Personally, I'd rather have a toggle where I can have: 1.Full party support like BG -- where I do a lot of the work for the party 2.Henceman party support like NWN:HOTU -- where the AI does a lot of a work for the party
