Has anyone experienced video lag occuring right after cutscenes and combat since installing WH? It's killing me. I've updated video drivers, turned off SLI, disabled my hybrid so the integrated video card wasn't holding memory, defragged, cleaned up my hard drive, updated BIOS, cleaned out the game cache, everything I can think of or find on google and I can't get it to stop. It's really hard to enjoy the game and gush over Alistair when I can hardly move after each combat sequence or cutscene. And it only happens, seemingly in DA:O I can play Bioshock 1 and 2 at max settings, no problem, other games as well. I don't even have my graphic settings in DA maxed, and i should be able to easily.

edited: started after installing Witch Hunt and not playing at all for the couple months before that,.

Hmm.... I don't know. It sounds like you've done all the right things. I've never had that problem, even after I (recently) turned off one of my cores to stop the frequent crashing that has been plaguing me lately. Did you install any mods recently that might not be playing nicely with the new patch or Witch Hunt?

I think CalJones posted that in good fun. I don't see how suggesting that Alistair loses a staring contest with him is belittling his character. It's fun to have a mix of people in the thread. Addai constantly visits the Loghain thread and that makes it a lot of fun.

Seriously, can you imagine if KoP wasn't a regular in this thread? It would be significantly less fun.

I myself I'm not an Alistair fan but I don't hate him either. I love coming into this thread because it's a fun thread. You guys make it fun. I think that's all that matters.

Agreed, but then I'm known to delurk explosively in the Loghain thread so I sort of have to agree.  LOL  A bit of spice is not untoward.  We're fans, not sycophants, and I'd prefer the thread be welcoming even to those who don't worship Alistair.

My 2c.

Agreed as well, different viewpoints make for better discussion. I also find the occasional troll amusing. Especially the ones who like to post mutations. Nobody's crueler to Alistair than the ones who love him most.

guys apparently I just completed the darkspawn chronicles dlc and found out in an alter timeline Alistair didn't die a virgin.

I don't think you'll find many timelines in which Alistair remains a virgin in this thread.

I mean my males were pretty getting laid around every corner and Alistair was like "I can't I was raised in the Chantry."  I was like, I was raised int the catholic church and had sex with every chick in the choir, except that one chick that was a lesbian.  But still Alistair used his chantry days as an excuse to remain a virgin.

Or maybe it was the fact that he was raised very religiously that's still with him? Sex talk wasn't really priority in the Chantry I'd imagine, and he is quite shy as well when it comes to things like that. Perhaps he just wanted to wait for the right woman, who wouldn't laugh or make fun at him for it.

Yes, I think that's why so many people appreciate KoP.  He adds spice to the mixture, sometimes maybe more than a little bit.  Well, sometimes a lot!  KoP is a very spicy guy, I guess.

It's also that while he's as interested in sex as the next person, he takes it seriously and as something more than a roll in the hay. He wants it to mean something, and to be in love with the person he's having sex with. Not a bad thing at all.

Nope, I had it the minute I went back to playing for the first time since July, and at that point hadn't installed any new mods. I installed WH, and it started there. Unfortunately even with WH disabled it's still doing it. There's just no reason it should be doing it on this system.

That's kind of what happened to me, only with different symptoms. Suddenly the game started crashing all the time, sometimes during fights a la Awakening, but sometimes just on little things. It was before the last patch/Witch Hunt. too, like some bug just came out of the woodwork. I actually wonder if this isn't why they've abandoned DA:O, at least in part--some ghost in the machine that they can't track down. Ever since Awakening, things have been unstable. Do you have more than one core? I'd be interested to know if it still happens if you disable all but one.

Ugh. lovely. I have way more respect (and much less worry about disease I might add) for a man that waits than for one that thinks sex is just there for their own amusement and turn it into something meaningless. gag.

My game keeps crashing during batles too. It started a couple of weeks ago - I got a new lap top, and installed it there, then the crashes started. I assumed it was the new computer, but its not a piece of junk cheapo computer. It has dual cores too.

Edit:  I just want to say, I find Alistair innocence sexy

I had the pre-1.04 crash problem but the patch fixed that. Now I have this. And like you, no cheapie computer, Alienware M17x actually, got her in February.

It's not a power issue, if it's a continuation of the Awakening bug. It seems to be some lind of a conflict between cores, or at least that makes it worse. Now, this may not be the same thing, but if it is, switching to one core makes things better.

That is very likely to improve your situation rak72.

If it makes the game too slow, try minimizing to desktop and changing the affinity right before battles.

And some Alistair:

Don't worry, whether you make him king or he stays a Warden, Alistair is going to have women throwing themselves at him.  Really don't think he'll need anyone's help.  Just because he doesn't take up every offer- like the women in Denerim he mentions propositioning him- is hardly a defect.  When he mentions the Chantry, it's to say he hadn't had much opportunity, being mostly surrounded by men and priestesses.  And, hate to be the one to point this out, but not all men are walking penises.

No, no more than the usual.

What I'm getting is this weird distortion in script.

I had little semi-circles missing from the bottom of my u's, but it went away after I quit and reloaded.

Edit: I realize that's sort of ridiculously unhelpful, but just letting you know you're not alone.

Liking Alistair's innocence has nothing to do with liking or not liking Zevran.  I happen to like them both very much, though I know a lot of Alistair fangirls don't like romancing Zevran even if they consider him their BFF.
