Believe us when we say Dragon Age 2 is something that is real. Shrouded in specious half-truths and the sufferer of premature announcements, we at least now know that, officially and categorically, there be more dragons and more ages a-comin’.
But for those who don’t believe something is real unless it’s standing front and centre, incessantly kicking them in the nutbag/female equivalent, here’s photographic proof that the game exists. Like you ever doubted the fact.
Dragon Age 2 is scheduled for a March 2011 release.

The detail looks about the same but the second shot is more revealing. Appears that they’ve taken the sheen off of everything and the matte/earthy look really suits the skin tones a lot more.

For those of you without a brain, this is pre-alpha…

It’s not as good because it’s pre-alpha! they’ve got nearly a year of dev time yet.

pre alpha code, not graphics. graphics will change a tad of course, but not that much

I didn’t think I had to mention that considering it’s not out until March 2011!
:)
But, good point. Yes, this is not the finished article.

Damn right it’s not the finished article. “there’s more dragons and more ages a-comin’” should be “there are more dragons and more ages a-comin’. I jest of course Kovacs :smileyhappy:

It’d be good to mention it everytime as I guess some games have graphics close to looking completed whilst they concentrate on other aspects of the title, whereas stuff like DAO2 have graphics looking a bit weird/different and we might make the accidental assumption that this is how they’ll look in the finished article (or at least near-as-dammit).

The sentence is written using colloquialisms, hence the “is/are” point is moot. I’ve updated it (just for you!) to make it sound even more ye olde Englishy.

Brilliant! You should continue with the Ye-Olde English theme. It’s great fun talking like ponces, don’t you think?

Trust you to find something untoward with that sentence.

I like the new look a lot more. I prefer my graphics to be more stylised, and the original Dragon Age characters were a little generic in their art style.

if they can tone down the, just walked through a blood waterfall, look then that would be an improvement, i’m all up for a bit of blood and gore but in the first game it got ridiculous how much you got covered in it.
i will definitely be getting this sequel, even if they’re dropping the different origins, i will miss leliana though.

mind you, if it’s a waterfall with blood instead of water, it should really be called a bloodfall shouldn’t it?
