Devastating to have more evidence that done IS better than perfect
just when i thought my comics couldn't get dumber... i surprise myself š
I wonder if the cast wonāt name themselves like Bertrandās Bells, but will name themselves something with Bell in it as a homage to him. Iām sure someone else will come up with something more clever, but The Bell Tolls, Bell Ringers, Hells Bells, something like that
r/Murderbot mods really said "if you can't use it/its for a fictional character, get over yourself".
"depiction is not automatically glorification" can and should coexist with "some depiction is glorification and you need to be able to tell the difference"
pros and cons of the dragon age games provided by me, your local dragon age gay
pros:Ā
the introduction to the series!
DOG
you can select from multiple origins that provide not only an in-depth backstory but also a closer and more personal look at the different cultures that reside in thedas/ferelden
gives you a lot of lore and context that is vital to understanding the rest of the games
there are so many goddamn possible endings itās actually incredible even minor choices you donāt think will impact the game can heavily affect character personalities (iām looking at You, alistair and leliana)
the dialogue wheel Does Not Exist thank u lord
ZEVRAN!!!! Z E V R A N!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cons:Ā
itās the oldest in the series so it sure looks and feels like it
some people donāt like the combat mechanics; i donāt think theyāre too bad but i like playing games like pillars of eternity so :L
āthe grey wardens donāt involve themselves in politicsā say local grey wardens as they singlehandedly decide the future of fereldenās monarchies
the FUCKING deep roads oh my GOD
skip the fade is the best mod in existence
morrigan isnāt a lesbian??? exCUSE ME????
Morrigan Disapproves :ā(
pros:Ā
just like dragon age: origins this game introduces certain story beats that are CRUCIAL to the next game
DOG
imo it has the best combat/level up mechanic in both games
down to earth story that focuses less on world-shattering events and more on the ugly, complicated, diverse relationships between people
provides more information on the qunari culture than the first game did with the introduction of the arishok + fenris
really delves deep into the conflict between mages and templars, and all the conflicts therein
unafraid to tackle the concept of horrible loss, sacrifice, the right to freedom, and the consequences of vengeance
in this house we are ALL bi for hawke
VARRIC <33
cons:
Local Champion Despairs Of Friends, Threatens To Turn This City Around If They Canāt Get Along
the introduction of⦠the dialogue wheel :(
āmages arenāt people like you and meā says cullen rutherford directly to the apostate future champion of kirkwall with absolutely no shame
iām so goddamn tired of mages and templars and blood mages oh my GOD
me about halfway through the game: ācanāt we just uproot the chantry and start afresh this is so stupidā
me later:Ā āNO NOT LIKE THATā
WE CANāT KISS VARRIC :(
pros:
you can play as any of the races of thedas!!! (qunari PC⦠bless up)
FROSTBITE ENGINE EVERYONE IS SO BEAUTIFUL
a deeper look into chantry hierarchies and the politics of thedas
semi-open world full of mysteries and things to explore!!
the approval system is much more streamlined with your companions tossing in their two cents whether theyāre present or not
thereās so much elf lore in this game itās spilling out the sides
companions come from all corners of thedas, providing us a more comprehensive look at the different countries
HIGH DRAGONS BITCHES WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO [IRON BULL VOICE] ANAAN
varric is back!!!
cons:
you get theĀ āchosen oneā storyline thatās been done 400 times before
THE FUCKGIN SHARDSā¦ā¦.
no dog :(
since the game concerns nearly every single country in the known world + their leaders it feels a little impersonal compared to the other two
Where In The World Is Zevran Arainai
if you play an elf inquisitor iām so sorry
you canāt kiss cassandra as a woman even though sheās a romantic soft butch knight in shining armor iāll never forgive u bioware
epilogue dlc that literally sets up and provides the premise for the next game WHY is this a dlc and not in the base game i just???
WE STILL CANāT KISS VARRIC???
āHarry looked around; there was Ginny running towards him; she had a hard, blazing look in her face as she threw her arms around him. And without thinking, without planning it, without worrying about the fact that fifty people were watching, Harry kissed her.ā Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

That was part of commish for one DA fan. I was inspired by image of this mighty city from DA:2, towering on a great mountain, at the foot of which splaches Waking sea...
Thatās it, the Professor is truly the King of Sass
