Dragon Age *possible spoilers*

Why would it suck?? Every game has an opening movie. You don't expect them to make two separate ones for the cc and the main game??

Because we already seen it and did not get to play it, it would be a bonus if the game itself had a other one. But of course it won't since this character creator is part of the game they just gave it to us because we asked. . I am just saying it would have been cool. Understand?

Just watched the "sacred_ashes" video again for like the 4the time and OMW the AWESOMENESS IS crzwaco melts...

Spoiler tags don't seem to work on the forum so sorry about this. All the character specializations discovered from some of the cc files.

Alright. I managed to gather as many descriptions for spells or talents as I could find. They're not very good descriptions mind you, and some of them don't even HAVE descriptions, but it's all there is.

Mages:
Blood Mage:
Health used as mana
Blood Control - Controlled by Blood
Blood Wound - Duration AoE
Pool of Blood - O
Blood Sacrifice - Drain Health, Heal with Blood

Spirit Healer:
Revival - AoE Ressurection
Cleansing Aura - Duration AoE, Aura of Healing, Healing Pulse
Lifeward - Conjure - AoE, Green Glyph, Heal
Support the weak - Conjure AoE, Heal

Arcane Warrior:
Combat Magic - Mana increases Strength
Fade Shroud - Phased out of reality
Shimmering Shield - Ultimate Magic Barrier
Aura of Might - Attack Bonus

Shapeshifter:
Bear Shape - Transformation
Spider Shape - Transformation
Flying Swarm - Transformation

Warriors:
Reaver:
Devour - Healing from Corpse
Frightening - Horror / Fear
Pain - Psychic Damage, Duration AoE
Blood Frenzy - ><

Beserker:
Beserk - Beserking
Final Blow - Target Death Impact

Templar:
Righteous Strike - ><
Cleanse Aura - Placed Impact AoE - Dispel
Holy Smite - ><
????

Champion:
Rally - Defense Bonus, Duration AoE
War Cry - Attack Penalty AoE

Rogues:
Bard:
Captivate - Duration AoE
Demoralize - Critical Chance, Attack and Damage, Defense Penalty, Placed Impact AoE
Cry of Valor - Mana and Stamina Regen

Duelist:
Pinpoint Strike - ><
Upset Balance - Target Slowed
Dueling - Attack Bonus

Assassin:
Mark of Death - Target Marked
Feast of the Fallen ><

Ranger:
Summon Spider - Summoning, Placed Impact
Summon Wolf - Summoning, Placed Impact
Summon Bear - Summoning, Placed Impact
Natural Regeneration - Regeneration


Hopefully this list will give people a tiny bit better of an idea of what all the specializations are all about. It certainly was enlightening to me. Shame about the complete lack of information for shapeshifters. T.T

Also, there seems to be some information about the attacks that Dog has too, I shall try digging that up while I'm on a roll.


EDIT:
Not a lot to be found about Dog it seems, all I could find was this:
Wardog Intimidation:
Mabari Howl - Defense Penalty AoE
Growl - Defense Penalty

Wardog Strength:
Shred - Bleeding

Not much there, but what it does seem to indicate is that dog will have at least two unique talent trees of his own, possibly more. Only time will tell.

Ordered the Collector's edition just now (after seeing the review on it) - BT Games seemed to be the only one carrying ... here's hoping that they will get it.

I posted it earlier but apparently BT made a deal with ea to carry the ce exclusively along with the memory band and guild masters belt.

For guys who wanted to read the codex before they should. You need to copy java.exe into the folder as well. Most of these files contain spoilers so you are warned:

I posted this last night, but it was locked and I was asked to use the exisiting CC snooping-around-in-the-data-files thread.

It appears that the Character Creator comes with a core_en-us.tlk file that contains a whole bunch of text from the full game. One of the things that I found while poking around there were +- 290 entries of what I can only assume is Dragon Age's version of the Codex.

I've made a quick tool to extract all these codex entries as .html files so you can read them and browse through them. I could just put the text itself online, but that probably wouldn't be legal. You can however download the tool HERE so you can extract them yourself.

Unzip this to it's own folder, copy core_en-us.tlk from the Character Creator to that folder (search for it under packages / core / data / talktables) and run start.bat. If it doesn't work you probably don't have Java installed, you can get that for free at java.com.

A word of warning: the mods have already said that reading the Codex could severely spoil your game. I haven't read most of them myself, but it's very possible that some later entries make references to things you'll experience at the start or the middle of the game. They also warned that old entries aren't usually removed, so some of these entries might contain incomplete or outdated information. You extract and read these at your own peril!

Who wants to go and read the story before the game is out? I mean do you want to spoil it for yourself or are you just an @ss for go and reading the story before you play the game. (excluding movie to games games)
 
I agree... I want it to be as "new" an experience as possible, without being able to anticipate the storyline or what will happen next. I've been trying to keep as minimalist an approach to the Dragon Age information out there as possible :p
 
Some people don't get influenced by knowing the story. Everyone is different. Thankfully there is an index so you can know which files will have major spoilers and which won't. Like for instance I don't see reading the spell combo files as being spoilers while reading the character or story files would be spoiling the game.
