@Jordaker My bad then. I saw the questions/the list about other things than character creation, and the fact that I didn't think it was presented as a very good omen regarding other aspects, and my read was probably lacking. Hence why I voiced perplexity, thank you for elaborating. Regarding the topic of philosophy and theology in DAI, I do not necessarily disagree. It's more, to me, an immersion difficulty (hard to really nicely go with a faithful Inquisitor). Just as, personally, it was difficult for me in terms of immersion in Fallout 4 to play as a female character looking for her baby. Yet, it doesn't take anything from the rest, or seeing the way other characters talked or lived their faith. It also gave interesting role play opportunities sometimes as a Dalish Elf (their history and faith in relation to Andrastian religion, or even within the relationship with Sera and Solas).

In general though, I tried to keep posted with news about DA4, more so since the release of the trailer and of the gameplay bit. They've talked about varied subjects, even if not at great length, like combat and classes, why the change of name. The character creator seems to be talked about much because it was something fans were really looking forward, and something the team behind the game seems to be proud of (they mentioned the fact that they were now mastering the Frost engine, for the technical part for example). Honestly, until recently, the matter of nudity was mentioned in passing (I even reported it here, because someone seemed to question the mature aspects of the game, what with the "it's for kids" sentiment when the trailer got out). Now there have been other articles/focuses in Game Informer, nudity being one lately. My impression is that there's a big difference in between what reporting and discussions tend to focus on, and what is actually communicated and how.

Edit : Sorry, error on the keyboard, and my message was posted half finished. Just to also add the article that just got out in relation to companions, since we were in part talking about that yesterday.

And, along with other things that should be elaborated on before release, there could be a bit more at the end of this month, since they will be present at the San Diego Comic-Con (25-28). With focus on the voice over (featuring Neve, Harding, Lucanis & Emmrich).
