    Ok, so you know how in the box art, main concept image thing for DA2, there's that dragon? And the bottom part of it's wings is the outlines of a bunch of people?  I assume everyone's noticed this by now, but here's the image if you don't know what I mean.
     

    For some reason those ghostly outlines make me think Nicolas Cage should be in the image somewhere. I don't know why.

    This has been bugging me for a while now. Are those your party members or something? Maybe random Kirkwall civilians, since Hawke is all 'Yo I'm the Champion' and they're all "Yo you're our champion"?
     
    WHO ARE THEY AND WHY ARE THEY THERE. THIS IS VITAL INFORMATION THAT IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL TO APPRECIATING THE GAME.

    At least some of them could be your party members? They could be whited out to prevent spoilers?

    Probably just to represent the Kirkwall citizens and how your decisions decide their fate as the story progresses.

    I just noticed that Hawke has claw-like hands. I wonder if he gets Flemeth to teach him how to turn into a dragon.

    I totally never noticed that...my guess is the latter, since if it IS your party, you're looking at a dozen people there. And that's... Baldur's Gate 2/Final Fantasy VI numbers (though you could still only have 4 in an active party in those games...or was it 5 in Baldur's Gate including the protagonist?).

    I mean, it's not like I said the dragon is shaped like a penis or anything. You're supposed to see it.

    Actually he stole that glove from the 2008 Prince of Persia. They haven't released info about the platforming segments yet, though, so don't tell anyone I told you.

    I think they're the ones who help you out when you want to hit on a romantic interest.  They talk you up to the person and generally make you seem better than you are.  They got your back and try and keep the person focused on you when you have to go to the bar or something.

    The Winglies were the opposing force to the Dragoons in the 10,000 year war, which resulted in the creation of the black monster.

    They're generic humans.  They're not party members, because there are no dwarves.

    It's pretty obvious they're Hawke's entourage. That cat's straight up baller. Plus word got out Fity's got beef with him so he needs the extra body guards.

    Is that the story of Blaze Blue?
