I did, but not to "spare him" per se.  My DE REALLY couldn't stand Alistair, for a wide variety of reasons (I don't like him much in general, but try to play each character slightly differently, so most don't HATE him), so I specifically went for the "Alistair winds up as a drunk" ending, which of course requires sparing Loghain.

So I did it once, I did explore dialogue with him in camp, travelled with him past a few banter points with different party combos just to experience some of that, etc.

I might  do it again, just to save RtO for the end and run through it with him, but that's far from a given.

Were you nice to him in the camp dialogue? You must really, really dislike him. Maybe you should RP a character who thinks he's awesome! :P


Nice to him?  Me???Image IPB

No, I can't say I was "nice", but neither was I necessarily "mean".  My DE didn't care much about the whole Cailan thing, was more interested in assasins coming after me, people being imprisoned, the whole "grab power and start a reign of terror" thing.  I asked him about several things, and I think I chose fair dialogue options during our talks.  I saw that he had some remorse for how things turned out, but what I didn't see was regret or accepting responsiblity for his part in getting to the point where things turned out that way.

Of course, that last may simply be my anti-Loghain prejudice.  Image IPB

A suggestion: Next time you have him in camp, pick the "What do you want?" option. His response is one of my all time favorites.

Hey, you're welcome to try --anything that will help. :) Your version is sharper but now I think the contrast is too high. I had made some changes and added some filters already, which may make your alterations behave differently; if our PMs allow attachments I can send you the original so you can work with a clean slate, if you're interested.

Yeah, I am not happy with the contrast there either. I'll try again. :happy:

Agreed. That's an awesome bit of dialogue, and shows much more faith in your Warden than you have the opportunity to see otherwise.

It's just a really blurry picture. I literally caught Loghain in mid-shrug --and I have no idea what my PC was doing. The best I could do with it was to try to make it look like a watercolor or something, instead of a really blurry picture. I wouldn't have made the effort except that it has such potential for greatness if we can get it right. =]

Aww, it doesn't matter if it's a little blurry. It's a sweet pic. Image IPB

Well, if Addai can go from Alistair fan girl to writing one of the most awesome Loghain fics out there, then I'm sure we can nudge TJ in the right direction. Right? Right...? *prod prod*

People in the Alistair thread can use that against me, so no :ph34r:

It looks more to me --assuming that it's not a "swoop" move-- like they're sharing a secret. I think if he were simply checking out her cleavage, he'd be a bit more subtle than that. That's more like something that Oghren would do --if he were standing on a chair. :lol:
