You know my only complaint about Origins is Alistair doesn't have enough commentary. I always thought he'd say something at points like this...
Paedan totally ignores the fact Alistair is even a Warden. No wonder the poor guy has a identity complex. The only time I can think of that an NPC directly addresses Alistair is certain dialogue options with Caladrius. Even then Caladrius address him as the bastard that is soon to be King.
Heh, yes, and when you talk to Oswyn in Howe's dungeon and tell him you're there for the rightful king, he says, "Oh, Maric's bastard?"Serissia wrote...

Yeah, even the confrontation with Loghain/Cauthrien/Howe is pretty much between them and the PC/Eamon, with Loghain mentioning stray bastards in passing and Eamon saying that Ferelden deserves a king of the Theirin bloodline. All things considered, Ali should take a much larger role at that point.

It all sort of works to Alistair's character, though, his tendency to defer and self-deprecate. He will tell your mabari that he's guarding one of the most important people in Ferelden, but doesn't consider himself that.

I suppose that's true enough. Though it would be nice if he did have a little more NPC interaction, especially after he's hardened (which I always do). I noticed while unlocking Reaver (a game I didn't follow up on) that he had a good bit to say aganist my PC's actions. That made unlocking the speciality worth it in its self.

I forgot about his reaction to defiling the ashes. Something about "remember what happened the last time you drank strange blood?" or something like that. Too funny.

This is one of the most emotional parts of the game for me as a human noble. You can see my pc trying to hold back killing Howe on the spot. Well written, it really enrages me.

Oh, it's really good. Although I was a little disappointed by the last two chapters. I had the feeling nothing interesting was happening after the big revelation. The pacing is just a mite too slow now for my taste - but hey, chapter 23 and it's the first time I feel like complaining a bit. :innocent: That's a miracle.Serissia wrote...
Oh and let me just say... I'm not much for fanfiction generally but A Midwinter's Thaw is amazing. I read up to chapter 8 in the wee hours of this morning.

I always let Cauthrien live. Maybe I'm a softie, but I can't bring myself to punish her for being everything I expect one of my subordinates to be. On my HNF anyway. Other character's fight her when rescuing Anora, but never before the Landsmeet. Even my thickest characters figure walking in coated with blood is not the *best* way to get things rolling.

I like her, but it depends on my character's mood. The way she speaks to you and to Alistair really begs an ass-kicking. OTOH, if you can talk her down, her "would that I had died at Ostagar" is wrenching.LadyDamodred wrote...

What I don't get about her is that she is despising Alistair and your PC for being the very thing that she and Loghain are- commoners (or disgraced noble, for a HN character) who are rising to power due to sheer force of will, skill, and luck.
