What game is this?
Dragon Age: Origins is a single-player third-person role-playing fantasy game developed by BioWare.

So... what kind of LP will this be? Video? Screenshots? Text?

[BladeofOblivion]

I've seen some amusing things with an Elven Mage. Especially if you get arcane warrior...

Shimmering Shield can get outright broken with the right Equipment.

This will be a VLP, live on livestream, as well as videos. I will be streaming on Wednesdays or Thursdays, Wednesdays for the first two weeks of a month, Thursdays after. Around 8, 8:30 PM. I may stream tonight.

[Dubious Pie]

After some testing, I have realized that live streaming is not feasible with my terrible internet connection. Also, I will be choosing the race, class and origin of the character.

[Domochevsky]

Ha, alright then. Should be interesting to watch. :smallsmile:

(Never played Dragon Age myself. Watching someone else play should be sufficient.)

[Lord Loss]

I just beat it and am on my second playthrough. I so want to see an LP of this... Do we get to vote for the race/class combo?

[Dubious Pie]

I just finished the first video, editing it now.

EDIT: Any paticularly awesome video hosts for these? I love blip.tv, but they say it is against the rules.

[Dubious Pie]

I have been spending the last two days doing this:


10 EDIT VIDEO
20 TRANSCODE INTO FORMAT THAT I CAN WATCH
30 WATCH
40 REALIZE ERROR
50 TRANSCODE INTO EDITOR FORMAT
60 GOTO 10

[Domochevsky]

What exactly does blip.tv forbid? LPs are allowed as far as i know.

[Dubious Pie]

I misread the rules. And here is Episode 1: http://blip.tv/file/4909648

[Domochevsky]

Hm, quite some desync near the end there. Also, yes, you need to be a lot louder to be audible. :smallwink:

[Dubious Pie]

That was mostly spent battling with FRAPS to record correctly. I am going to be recording the audio from me separately from now on, but Episode 1 is unfixable.

Also, if anyone wants to guest comment, that would be awesome.

I am severely disappointed in the lack of Dwarf Mage characters in these Let's Plays. It's discrimination!

That took a moment to sink in...

Dwarfs need to know their place. Also, dwarven love for ale does not mix well with fireballs.

Easy fix for that. Enable Cheat console.

type in "runscript wizard" (in the console without the quotes) at the beginning of a dwarf warrior/rogue game, and enjoy your dwarf wizard.

Game on!

I plan on recording Episode 2 tonight, so send me a PM if you would be interested in talking over video games with me, or even better, add me on Skype. My Skype name is Nonpython.
