Hey, when you find a good story, run with it, eh?

It's a common enough theme, though, that I'm not particularly bothered by it. As long as the story is well-told and well-written, it's all good, imo.

Damn, I loves me some Angry Alistair:

Such a shame he does not look like Alistair :unsure:

Oh, he is fine.  Posted Image  He seems like a genuinely nice guy, too.  I just hope he doesn't take success to heart and Bioware decides they can't pay him anymore.

My primary concern.

Martin also steals all your glory at the end, by sacrificing himself to kill the big bad, ending a long line of rulers. Deja Vu much?


When my boyfriend found out that Alistair could become king and break up with the PC, we had this conversation (this is before he started playing and got emotionally eviscerated by Morrigan):

Him: So they put in a cute prince character and you get to sleep with him, right?
Me: He gives you a rose and you take his virginity. It's all very romantic.
Him: And then you make him king and he dumps you.
Me: Yep.
Him: So do the developers hate you guys? I mean, what's the point?
Me: Otherwise he'd just be Martin Septim.
Him: Ew.
Me: I know, right?

If they bring Steve Valentine back as Alistair, I would be psyched.  However, as I said in the VA thread, they absolutely should not bring back any of the VAs if they're not reprising their roles.  We come to associate the voice/characters too closely and it would ruin it.

Funny! I wish my hubby played RPGs. But noooo more the Madden type.

Heh, Lady Damodred, you just beat me to the punch. I just finally managed to get Photobucket to accept my DA shots (had to save them as TIFs then convert them back into JPGs - tedious...)

Alistair's not happy that I'm going to spare Loghain.

He's even less happy when I tell him I'm going to marry Anora. Got to love that eyebrow.

Hey, did anyone noticed the new staff design in Awakening? I'm trying to create a version for Origins, what was the name of the staff? Anyone remember?

He plays RPG's, FPS's (which make me physically ill) and racing games. I play RPG's, platformers and the Sims. We both love Rock Band. It's a nice balance.

I agree that the VA's in Dragon Age are irreplaceable. I'd rather have written correspondances or zero Alistair/Zev/Morrigan or Leliana than the actual chracters with the wrong voices.

Which design? Lamppost in Winter is the one with the weird curved bits on the side and Spellfury was pretty much straight with the halloewd bit at the end.

I was thinking of spellfury, thanks. What is this lampost in winter one? Is that a joke?

It gets dropped by a Disciple in Amaranthine (he's with the armored ogre). It's a real staff, fairly decent for a drop, and it's description is something like "This staff is unnaturally cold. It would be unwise to lick it."

I was surprised that more people didn't note the return of Bann Sexy's VA in Awakening, in a different and less swoony role (Captain what's-his-name in the Keep).

ok Addai asked me to dig this picture up

im not linking directly to it since I have a nude mod installed and Ser Gilmore looks rather...happy despite the fact hes a blood soaked corpse

Yet another disturbing image given us by the natural bodies mod.
OMG! It IS them!





As many times as I've played this game and done the break out scene I have never noticed that.  Makes me even more glad I killed Howe and makes me more determined to see Loghain dead even if it is by Alistair's hand.  Loghain may not of killed my family, may not of known anything about it even. He still supported this by allowing Howe to continue and heaping him with even more titles.  Rewarding him for destroying and butching families.  Makes me sick!

Yeah, I actually didn't catch that until my second playthrough. Too bad Garavel is such an ass.

Bratt you and I think alike. It is almost (emphasis on almost) as sad when Martin dies as when Alistair does.


Who is Martin?

Oh I assumed you had played Oblivion. Martin is the prince (bastard prince, sound familiar) that Sean Bean voiced.


Now I have played Elderscrolls/Oblivion - have not played it in several years so I don't remember much.

Serously though, is there actually a lamp post in winter staff in Awakening?

Oh yes, I did notice that. Teagan's voice is very hard to miss. xD Though speaking of voice actors, I really liked the one who did Varel. I get the feeling he voiced The Withered as well.

Yes, there's an actual Lamppost in Winter staff. I lol'ed at that almost as much as at the Cailan and Anora snowglobe.

It's also really badass looking, stupidly you get it right at the end of the game (if at all).

Heh, it got missed in the posting flurry, but there is. It gets dropped at the end and is fierce looking.

I, of course, give it to Anders. If anyone could appreciate a nice double-entendre, it would be him.

don't get me started on Sean Bean *swoons*

He's going to be the lead for the new HBO series based on the Song of Ice and Fire novels.  Very excited.


I will need to keep an eye out for that - I just adore him.
