I'm actually not-so-glad about this cameo. I have my theories on this, and it changes my head-canon once again! But... we will see!

I'm so torn. I did cancel my preorder over the DRM thing (which has been since changed to a more acceptable one). I'm not that excited over the game itself, but I know that what happens will be all over the place, and do I really want to find out before I play it? OTOH, $60 is a lot of money I think (maybe I'm old fashioned) and while it's a reasonable price for a game, I normally don't buy games while they're full price.

There aren't many games that are release day must haves for me, I tend to wait til they drop a bit :) But I am really looking forward to DA II at least we know Gaider loves Zev, right? So he shouldn't have Ashley/Kaidan syndrome (cos Liara is Hudson's fave... <_<) I am optimistic that Gaider wouldn't allow the de-Zevranising of Zev and if he has allowed it, well they can't take DA:O away from us................... can they? :blink: 


David Gaider does not like happy endings.  Just remember that!  Zevran 10 years later has the potential to be interesting, but I have REALLY bad feelings about this.

I hope I'm completely wrong.

I'm not sure why I care so much.  This is BW playground and I can choose whether to play in it or not.  But I just liked Zevran so much, I really do have an emotional investment here. 

Edit: Pirate Zevran reporting for duty.  Prepare to be boarded!

Just read it!! It's good. Developing a BIG crush on Cadryn. Remind me also never to get him mad. I posted a comment, which naturally didn't show up. Maybe it will later.

*Sigh* yeah, I know.................... :unsure: I mean I can't tell you how fast I hit the skip scene button when Morrigan is defiling my lovely Alistair to *save our lives* and how upsetting it is that I have to go to ruddy camp every I time I want to hear Zev  - ''Again? work work work'' (or similar) There are a lot of inequities not least of which is that ME2 AND DA:O DLC is a whole bunch of heterosexual male fanservice <_< Leliana, Morrigan, Liara......... Funny that! 
Still I am hopeful, it is my nature to be so.
Also is there some weird thing on here, cos whenever I comment on a thread it appears on my profile page APART from on this thread (and oddly enough the 'Mad at Zev', thread which is where I first encountered your wonderful signature ;)) Why doesn't it register? Is it some glitch I have or are we invisible? :blink:
It really grinds my gears when they create something that we all love and then either cr*p all over it or pretend it doesn't exist? (like the Virmire survivor..)

Both this and the old Zevran thread seem to suffer from this ninja-status -- at least to me.  At first I thought it was because I was subscribed to the thread, but posts I make on other subscribed threads still show up in my profile...
:?

I thought it was because it was in the spoiler section. None of my posts from this section appear in my profile (or else I'd be outted about all the time I spend at the Morri thread), but all the non-spoiler section posts do.

Interesting!

@ejo, huh, that would actually be logical! (honest surprise there. XD) Although, post text doesn't show up in feed updates anyway, so it's not exactly a necessary precaution... XD

What happened to the feed updates? Those were the ones in the upper right of the screen, correct? I don't have those anymore...but I did used to see the thread pop up every now and then.

No, not that.  I actually want to ask a few questions (but I can't ask as they would be MAJOR spoilers).  It determines whether or not I ever buy DA2 :D  But I need to know *grin*


I should be getting it tonight, and I plan to import a CE who romanced Zev and enthroned Alistair/Anora rather than canon!Cousland (most of you know that story), so I'll be open to questions when I reach the place. :)

Edit: SecuROM borked my release time. I won't be getting it for another couple of days.

Ah it isn't me being daft then! I have been visiting the Kaidan thread since I rejoined (had an old account but forgot my password and had changed email.............. DOH!) and that is in the spoiler section and always shows up (same goes for when I try to stealth into the Jacob thread.... I like him OK? There I said it...) So it I noticed that my comments on here just weren't showing as activity, odd indeed.
I kind of want to know, but don't since we aren't due for the game til Friday here in the UK. I might even have to disappear til it arrives tbh, for fear of it being sullied somehow on the SN :o Not sure I am actually capable of doing it though........... lol

 I have a question........Have any of you done an ultimate sacrifice whilst romancing Zev, how is it done? Is he heartbroken? What happens? Are there youtube videos? So many questions because of this pic...by PayRoo (and was done by someone here?)

I have.  While you don't get a scene like this (payroo, gah, *cry*) here is his epilogue card:

Zevran lingered in Denerim for a time, mourning the loss of his love and working for the Fereldan throne as a distraction. Eventually the Crows came after him once again and he elected to take the fight to their doorstep, returning to Antiva. After four master assassins disappeared, the Crows readmitted Zevran--as their leader. He maintained a distance from his former comrades even then, and despite frequent offers of new bedmates, never loved again.

He's pretty destroyed.

 And here's his face at the funeral:

The camera focuses in when Anora/Alistair says "some of us were friends and companions," and the Zevran looks up when they go on to say, "some of us even loved her."  I cried for real during the funeral.

Oh....................................so sad.................................. Thanks. I think.
I take it you had a save before that and reloaded for a happier ending? :'( Cos that would depress me for days. He does look..empty..

No, that's my US ending.  Sereda Aeducan.  My ONLY US character, though.  I cried, especially when I got to his epilogue card.  It was a huge emotional punch.

Now I'm actually tempted to play DAO again!  It's been a very long time since I have (over a half a year, actually, and I haven't tried Hidle's and cmessaz's mod yet).

Yep, that's my primary canon (Lorelai Brosca, the avatar yonder).  It's the only thing I really regret about that run.  She didn't mean to destroy him like that.

*sobs* I don't know if I could do that knowing what the epilogue would say. My US would have to be on a warden who didn't romance anyone. *snif* So sad.....
