DA:I - Some Inquisitor development

Sifting through the design fog until you start seeing light in the distance. These were just some of my drawings, there are even more from other members of the concept team.

I was surprised to see these out there! Some context: These were stitched together and put up on the wall for two reasons. First, to remind everyone that a LOT had been designed and built (during a time when most of it wasn’t in the game yet). Second, it acted as a visual guide for factions moving forward. There was still a lot to design, and seeing where you’ve come from does a lot to inform where you’re going.

DA:I - The War Table

Of all the props I got to design for Inquisition, my favorite is the War Table. We knew that we’d be coming back to the table time and time again, so I tried to treat it like a character design and give it some history. I thought that perhaps the War Table was made from a tree that once served as a symbol for peace. It was then cut down and slabbed, polished from centuries of use. The lofty branches that once shaded diplomatic talks were desecrated, inverted to illuminate machinations of conflict.

DA:I - Greater Wilderness Creatures

A couple of my favorites, which to me will always be the Dragon Bear and the Hyena Vulture. The idea was that an ecosystem that included flying tyrannosauruses would be different from the one we know today. In this case, a breed of bear that targets wyverns and dragonlings, but in the spring may even go after a high dragon. Alternately, a scavenger that has grown large and confident living off the scraps of the high dragon.

Game Journal 1

literally every mundane thing has been made a game at some point seriously. For every thing that I list i could name a game associated with it watch:

1. Cat care- Every single Catz game ever. 

2. House Cleaning- Octodad.

3. Being an anime nerd too broke to afford anything- No More Heroes

4. Paying rent-the original Thief game

5. Trying not to die via the horrifying death caricatures people like to call animatronics- Five Nights at Freddy’s
