I think more video games should do the DA2 thing where they give their player character a watermark, bc I can see absolutely anyone’s OC art and pick out a Hawke from a mile away with the blood swipe

finally embracing shoving my ocs into aus and developing an entire Silent Hill plot line with my boys has been a fun exercise in existential dread and creature design, putting Josh in Silent Hill is essentially this tho

Concept Art Moments and Ideas: What I Wish Was Kept
Pretty sure we've all been there. Seen some of the concept art and thought how cool it was and how much you wish it had made it in the final game. These are some of mine, I won't go too much into why they're not in the game, the answer is usually either one of the following or a combination of: they needed to narrow the scope of the project, frostbite was a new engine they were struggling to make do what they needed, time, they didn't feel it had enough narrative weight or purpose, or it would make the world states branch out far too much.
I'm not really wanting to discuss whether or not I agree with cutting them either. I just really think these are neat concept, ones I've thought out how they would fold in, possible ways they could have played out, and some that personally I have worked into my fic just to fully explore the ideas.
Most of the images that don't have a source link came from either the art book or the BioWare Stories and Secrets From 25 Years of Game Development (B25) book.
Now lets start with the most common one:
Tumblr media
[Source]
I'm know others have said this, but I really wish that it had been feasible for you to become Divine. Though, honestly this only would have really worked as decision at the end of the series. While personally in my canon world state I don't have anyone I would want to put in that role. I do have an OC who I did design for that and would have been nice to see it play out. Especially come Trespasser.
Tumblr media
These are story boards from the art book of the prologue walk through Haven. The voice lines for this are still in the game files even though they're cut. Something I always wanted in the prologue was something to actually motivate me. There is no real sense of danger, and the walk through Haven hold no real weight. It's mostly telling and no showing, it feels hollow after your first play-through where you aren't curious and uncertain. It honestly would have been interesting to me if this was in there and if there were non-standard ending option outside of combat. Provoking the scared survivors to where they mob you, a timer on the mark instead of just the one check point. If it started draining your health the longer you took to get to the Breach. Things that could easily be removed if you decreased the difficulty level and wouldn't impact the game overly much.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Left Dragon Age Art Book, Right World of Thedas vol. 2 p. 245]
To continue on with my desire for the steaks in Inquisition to be more intense, for you to actually feel some type of risk or hostility from the world. These two are more of an expansion on the attack on Haven. I wish Corypheus was given a more dramatic entrance than being seen on the hill with his Commander. That when he arrived to scoop you up, that it was more ominous and threatening. Something to illustrate as him having this overwhelming presence and force.
Tumblr media
In Hushed Whispers had the concept art of King Alistair going with you and honestly, I feel like it is a missed opportunity. Not only would it make sense but there is a sort of thematic element with Alistair once again having to save Redcliffe from a mage. I think this also could have worked if he was king or warden. If he was a warden, it would have been a very nice way to tie in the Warden plot for Alistair and even Loghain. Would have really given the Inquisitor a reason to care about choosing between them or Hawke in the Fade.
Tumblr media

Matt Rhodes labeled this as Anders in the tags, and I am really intrigued by this prospect. We know by the end of DA2 if he's alive he doesn't have many friends with the displaced mages of Kirkwall after awhile. It would have been nice for him to come back in that Warden role they were considering for the cancelled Exalted March DLC. But what really makes me curious, is why he's out in what we might think is the Western Approach/Hissing Wastes and what happened to his missing right arm.
Tumblr media
Alternatively, another scenario I would have liked to see with Anders comes from the B25 book. We see they explored the idea of Anders, as a Grey Warden in the cancelled Exalted March DLC. Honestly, I feel as if he would return regardless of if you killed him or not because we know that Justice can and has prevented fatal injuries from killing Anders before. This could have been an interesting thread to not only pull his story to an end in dai, but also introduce the Warden contact instead of the ones we had. Because he was on the run and the Wardens would offer a degree of protection so he would be unwillingly forced to return, couple that with him knowing of Corypheus - which would likely be the thing that forced the Wardens to keep him alive once they found his prison empty.
Tumblr media
[Source]
This is Western Approach concept art, specifically this was suppose to be Adamant. Matt Rhodes describes that it was suppose to be a monastery, self-sustaining, and a place where they could cultivate their own food, weave their own fabrics. It would have been interesting to be able to see it like this, to see the game use this to not only explore how the Wardens survived out here but also how they recovered the fortress after it was wrecked in Asunder. It would have tied in nicely with exploring the fact that the reversal of Tranquility was found here, a fact known to everyone in game at this point (they just didn't know the Seekers hid it from the Chantry and mages). It would have been an excellent way to fold in Rhys, Evangeline, flesh out Cole's backstory and personal quest, and even show another side of the mages - the ones who didn't want to be involved in the war and fled to the Wardens.
Tumblr media
Two Words: Giant. Scorpion.
Look how massive that is. I love mega fauna so much. I want something massive to be living in the Hissing Wastes and I want this to be fighting dragons. It would have been amazing. Look at the boards they put out.
Tumblr media
[Source]
I want to believe this is for the Western Approach given the ground type and the smoke in the background. If this thing was guarding the sulfur fields by Griffon Keep? It would have been epic. Or even if we saw it fighting the Abyssal dragon. Honestly, I think more areas should have had a competing predator for the dragons to be fighting. It would have been cooler if they kept great bears (previously known as Dragon Bears) at their massive size to fight a dragon in the Emerald Graves too.
Tumblr media
[Source]
That said, this scorpion concept gets even better when you see the concept art for smaller versions being Venatori mounts.
Tumblr media
How do you not get stabbed bud? How do you domesticate/train this? What is the intelligence of this little critter? I can just picture a play on the scorpion and the frog happening here. This would have been really cool as mini-bosses or something of that nature. Particularly around the ruins, Venatori operations, or raids against the keeps.
Tumblr media
Another piece from B25, we see new concept art of the Inquisitor leaving Skyhold with the Inquisition as Skyhold is destroyed in the background. We learned from David Gaider that at one point Skyhold was actually suppose to be attacked by Corypheus, but it ended up being cut due to time/scope. This is something I wish they kept, having your second base attack, you home at the point where you felt the strongest and potentially after a recent victory.
It would have reminded the player that Corypheus and his commander, Calpernia or Samson, were a real and active threat. Something missing from Inquisition honestly. It would have been interesting to see if we had to find a new base of operations or if we had to rebuild. When first settling in Skyhold everyone mentions being able to see the enemy coming, about not retreating from Skyhold. They really built up an expectation that at the very least a scare of an attack would happen.
There would have been a sort of poetic sense to Skyhold being leveled. Considering it is of Fereldan make, built on top of a leveled elven site. To have the site once again leveled, the history brought back to its foundations. It would have been a thematic foreshadowing to what Solas plans to do as well.
These are clearly just things I found interesting, things I feel would have really added to the game, and some others might not agree with. There are other things I wish they hadn't cut, but I didn't want to include anything that has been post-humorously mentioned by the devs because I wanted to focus more on the concept art aspect. A lot of decisions were shaped by circumstances we'll never really know the full scope of, and sometimes I wonder if they had gotten more than the 3-4 years they had for Inquisition and maybe on an engine that wasn't so fickle and worked better for the style of game how different it would have been.

Two very dangerous misadventures in this Astarion honor run: in the room just across from Withers's crypt, I detect and disarm all traps except the main one on the sarcophagus. I'm 99% sure it's fine, since I think that one just fires off grease, but not the fireball. All good; I'll just trigger the grease, we'll all fall prone, ha ha ha.
I am very mistaken.
Tumblr media
Secondly, I know on Honor Mode the owlbear summons a mate, and I'm scared to death of fighting both of them as we're only level three. I persuade what's-his-name's siblings to come help us out, and even still it's the closest call of the run so far. The sister dies (fine with me), Karlach dies, Wyll goes down but stabilizes--and for the first time in any of my games, Gale dies before I find out about his orb, triggering the mirror image death-failsafe conversation and his body's necrotic aura.
There's a moment at the end of the fight where Astarion is the only one standing toe to toe with the owlbear father. He has twelve hitpoints. The owlbear father has three. (The brother is up a hill engaged with the owlbear cub and only has two hitpoints himself from the repeated Tiny Claws attacks.)
It's honor mode, so I have one shot at this. I can't get advantage (no allies in melee, deep water prevents moving away enough to hide, won't survive an opportunity attack). It's just a straight hit. Three hitpoints. We can do this.
Astarion misses. I used both bonus actions at the top of the round trying to get more advantageous position and can't even take a healing potion. He's still standing in Gale's necrotic aura at the end of his turn because I'm trapped by opportunity attacks and takes two damage. Down to 10 hp.
I'm hovering my mouse over "end task" on the Task Manager. It's honor mode; I have one save. If all four party members go down, that save is toast and the run is over. But...what if...?
One more round. Just in case. I'm feeling insane and lucky.
The owlbear father attacks--and misses. It rolled a three on the die.
Astarion lands the next blow. Owlbear father finally down, I'm pumping my fists, the owlbear cub de-aggros and starts eating mom, the brother cries over his sister getting mauled to death and Astarion tells him to find somewhere else to be. That cutscene ends--and I discover the whole time, Astarion's been taking a d4 of necrotic damage from Gale's STUPID AURA EVERY SIX SECONDS. He has two hit points left and my heart tries to jump out of my throat on a spring.
I manage to get out of the aura, down a bunch of potions, and get everyone up in time to do Gale's pouch puzzle (my first time! and wasn't THAT a new stressful experience on its own!). Not even the Anders fight was that difficult this go-round. Whew!
