RETURN OF THE QUEEN
Don't worry about inconsistent uploads. Your youtube channel for a pretty niche video game series isn't your first priority, which all things considered, is probably for the best. The viewers understand, and this way it's like a happy surprise when we see a new video pop up!
Didnt knew Dragon Age had became niche, it is pretty much the definitive western fantasy RPG series for a good decade. I guess one perspective is if dont get a new game every two-four years, your franchise becomes niche... But I dont agree with this pers say, its just DA is not getting public attention as it did due to no new game out currently, and because Bioware kinda slammed their reputation down with how they handled the Mass Effect series, and worse, their employees.
@@Bionickpunk that's nice
@@BionickpunkDragon age is literally my favorite but even I know it's not the "definitive Western rpg series"
The blood dragon armor was always interesting to me because it a bioware thing but you get it non bioware games such as dead space 2 and 3
They're all under ea
Great to see you back, this is exactly the kind of content I'm all for!
Just one quick thing, I am 99% certain Wicked Oath is also available in the console version of Origins. After 2 was out but before Inquisition (I haven't checked since) you could access all the Downloadable items in the Extra Content Tab in Origins which would bring you to the PSN store page for each item when you downloaded it it would restart Origins so it took fucking ages to add them all!
As an Xbox player I can confirm most promotional items aren’t available to us anymore (when it comes to origins). Some dlc is free like feast day gifts or the stone prisoner but there isn’t any item packs available to us, such as the blood dragon armor. (Unless you bought these packs or got them when they were available several years ago.)
The far cliffs of Kirkwall, lotherings lement and I think the third book but my memory is shaky, are all on Xbox by default nowadays. It’s just sort of on my digital copy of da2. I didn’t have a bsn account back in the day either.
Wait, is the DAO blood armour implied to have belonged to Cassandra's brother then? He was a famous dragon hunter killed by men? 🤔🤔🤔
When you mentioned the next video isn't going to be like the others, I didn't know what to expect. I definitely didn't expect one of my favorite topics that I spent so much time researching. Not sure why promo items fascinate me so much, but they do. Nice surprise, thank you!
Those Master Studies items are indeed a mystery. I've been able to find an expired giveaway on Facebook and contact the organizer, who was kind enough to provide that brief bit of info that I later added to the wiki. Otherwise, I haven't been able to find *anything*.
@@veryblackraven on a google, I could only find people asking ‘wtf is this?’ With no answer. No I’m wondering if that was you, haha! But yeah, I’m curious about it too. If I find anything else, I’ll let you know!
Rewatching this video, and just wanted to add:
26:43 "A bird that is not a bird" is probably a reference to Twitter. Whatever promotion this item was intended to connect with would no doubt have required a Twitter account in some way, shape, or form.
3:08 The thought of circle mages using that as a cudgel :D
19:20 Hilarious imagining a Crow whipping off their belt and using it to strangle someone (what a garotte is supposed to be), then trying to pawn the belt, used, for spare change.
I'll add to the people welcoming you back. One uncharitable thought struck me though as you went through the items. If any EA execs happen to watch this, I think they'll be banging their heads against the wall, irate that loot-boxes hadn't been invented yet.
Yes, how do you described Raptr was exactly how it was as a system. I hade an AMD GPU when I was on my journey in PC gaming.
Sweet! What a nice video to watch on graveyard shift
You can unlock at least some of the old exclusive items via Dragon Age Keep (including getting the Serrault Glass in DAI). Sadly, still no means to get the special DAI mounts outside of the mod but at least there are some things we can grab. Wonderful video as always!
I love this video ❤️ I hope in next Dragon Age we will see much more promotional items with fun lore.
Can't wait for your review of the latest Dreadwolf video. I've noticed Beetle and Moonhead symbols there among several others
The reason they put the blood armour in the game is kinda crazy to me. The reason people buy used games is because they don’t have 60-80€ to put into a game. I got my Origins’ copy at Micromania (the French equivalent of GameStop) and the whole reason I bought it was because I didn’t have to pay 60€ for a game. In a twist of irony, the original owner of the used game never used his promo codes so I was still able to get the promo items. Joke’s on you, BioWare.
OMG Ghil. It’s not French, it’s ORLESIAN! 😂
Also welcome back, you were missed
Brave the demons of hot topic to get the cool shirt. 😂 I'm laughing, but my mom didn't want me to go into hot topic for the same reason. She had to learn to just accept it though. Lol.
I had a few of these items and I remember playing dragon age journeys lmao I also have the hawk staff on console but I don’t remember signing up for a newsletter too get it
You're back! I'm always excited to see a new Ghil video!
Internally screamed for joy seeing this new content. 🙌
You’re back!!!!! Altman be praised! Wait, wrong game.
Glad to see a video by you. Hope the kid is well. Love the content! Would you consider doing or have you done videos on Journey and Legends storyline and lore?
I have already done them! Legends was definitely a labor of love, haha.
Welcome back, Catie!
Yay glad you're back.🙂
Thank you for this video I will be putting some of these items in the Dragon Age RPG storyline i am currently running
FINALLY! your back
Wow. An extra long video!
Hi I Just started seen your videos and i thank to them I understand better dragon age in general! Thank you por coming back,
.I thought I come to late to the party xdd
I don’t have Twitter or use Reddit but I would like to see a video on all known members of Dwarven Paragons. Who they are, what the did you achieve paragonhood and any notable members of that house.
Thanks.
And the Noble and Commoner Dwarf Grey Warden Paragons.
*guy who uses red hart and primal-trained longma interchangeably* ouch.
3:50 AAAA! A CORE MEMORY!
Very Interesting. Thanks for everything and take care!
Pog she's alive!
thank you for this. i’m going to have to look up how to get some of these now
I wonder if we'll get all these items with a remaster? I get the feeling an Origins remaster is on Bioware's To Do List.
The blood dragon armor is frustrating for me because I can’t get it for my Xbox one backwards compatible DAO but have it for my 360 game and Xbox One DA2 backwards compatible version. I can’t find a fix for it anywhere and the EA help forums have a “solution” that just sends you to the trailer of the armor on the Xbox marketplace.
I wish that games would just make all promotional content either free to download a year after release or as an optional buy after the release of the game. Especially for the console gamers that can’t just mod it into the game.
I'm not sure if it would work, but if you unlocked it in the keep with an xbox account connected, would you be able to redeem it in the in-game items menu?
I wonder what promotional items Veilguard will give out to anyone who preorders the game. I wonder what Promotional Items I will get once I install Veilguard on my PS5. Maybe a magic Elven Sword and Shield as well as armor that the Elven Sentinels once wore, a Dwarves Axe as well as the armor that once belonged to the previous ruler of the Dwarven Empire, Staff of the First Archon or Sword of the Arishok.
I'm a little late but I believe you can claim them all on the keep and download them when you load up Dao and da2
Raptr was like Steam combined with Discord.
Nice a new video
Dragon Age is by far the biggest offender when it comes to exclusive BS. I hope Dragon Age 4 isn't going to be like that.
Man, I loved Raptr.
Oh, Heroes is shut down too. Gosh dang
As of writing this comment, I am willing to play a two or three missions in multiplayer with anyone who wants the Dragon decor. I already have it myself. I'm reasonably sure I still have a few dragon summoning items lying around on my account but I haven't booted up the multiplayer in years so I can't be 100%.
I think I have many of the things for da2, but I'm not sure about dao, and I know that I don't really have anything for dai. (Got into the games to late.) I'm going to need a heads up for dad (snort), because I hate missing out.
RIght now with the servers shut down on pc if you dont have DAO on steam all the achievment items vanish. I needed a mod to bring them back. One downside - all the achievments are unlocked.
27:35 I felt the same.
I have one of those blood dragon armor codes, although while it worked I never actually got the armor in DAO instead it gave me a trailer a fucking trailer. I did get the armor I’m Mass Effect tho
Man i loved Dragon Age: Legends 🥺
Holy shit!!!!
Oh fun
It is time.
For DAO on Xbox the items are listed to download in the marketplace but when I tried they wouldn't actually download for some reason.
i miss the bsn man
It’s been a while🎶
Did the Blood Dragon Armor belong to Cassandra's brother Antony?
Hasn't she done this video before
Not quite- but when I review obscure DA media, some of it has included promo items, and I talk about it in that video too.
Eew, gaming on a Mac, barbarian.
Hey how've you been?
Hope you got some good rest. Love to see your content again, but your personal welfare comes first.
What was the 'thing'? WHAT WAS THE THING???!?!
