Oh and Hamlet was my favorite Shakespeare play out of the ones I read. Though I really should read the rest of them sometime.

@Dhiro lol, French food is not really my area of expertise, but I don't think that particular dish is very difficult.

King Lear is my favorite, but "Cordelia" would have been a little hard to fit into a battle cry. And Taming of the Shrew is a framed narrative.

I don't think I ever said what food Sten would be.  I think he'd have to be a really dark Mexican chocolate. It's the only flavor I can think of as "profoundly sarcastic."

Mexican chocolate? That sound amazing. Does it go with margaritas?

Is there anything that doesn't go with margaritas?

Our tears of joy?

Yes because more salt in a margarita would certainly be out of place.

Your sad tears sustain us.

Tears of any kind will do in a pinch.

So...many...Bioware tags...
Why wont they just tell us? It's just plain CRUEL!

We're not allowed! I got yelled at by Evil Chris for confirming Varric's voice actor! Okay, so it was via IM, and there was no volume, so it was more like a scolding than a yelling, but still! I was told not to confirm anything ever again for the rest of eternity.

Well don't die. We like our renewable resources here in the eco-friendly north, you know.

You're allowed to confirm stuff like that when we figure something out like that with little to no information from you guys

Not when I sit right across the room from her, she's not.

So...what did you end up throwing at her after the "holy frack, they figured it out!?!?!" post? 

The deadly Look of Extreme Withering.

 Perhaps David just enjoys writing romances, or the characters he wanted to write (because of their attributes) all happened to be LIs?

I think Dave is just a die-hard romantic. A die-hard romantic who enjoys writing romances that will rip your heart out and make you cry.

Haha.  I'd like to see a conversation between Varric and the Turian councilor.  Based off of the description of Varric and the brief scene of him talking in the Rise to Power trailer, a war of words between them would be epic. 

Turian Councilor versus the Dragon Age Universe

Varric: Hawke cut the ogre clean in half, using only a single sheet of paper that she'd salvaged from Lothering before it burned. The darkspawn horde closed in around her, and it looked pretty grim... until a dragon dropped out of the sky and started clearing away the darkspawn with her firey breath--

Councilor: Dragons? You don't seriously expect us to believe that nonsense?

Flemeth: You are expected to do nothing, least of all believe.

Councilor: Ah, yes. "Flemeth." We have dismissed that claim.

Varric: You're getting awfully tense there, Chuckles. Have a seat! I'll order you a drink. Nobody should listen to a story like this sober.

Councilor: Do you think this is a joke, Mister Tethras? The council does not find your attitude amusing. 

Isabela: You see? This is what lack of sex does to a person. Tragic, really. 

Varric: I like the part where Chuckles keeps referring to himself as a "council."

Isabela: Well, maybe he's conferring with what's inside his trousers.

Councilor: I think we've heard more than enough.

Flemeth: "Be always aware." ...or is it "oblivious"? I can never remember.

Varric: Are you sure? I haven't even gotten to the part where Hawke taught the Archdemon the True Meaning of Friendship yet. No? Oh well.

[Mary Kirby]

Sheryl is writing Isabela.



Incidentally, happy holidays, merry x-mas, reasonably non-sober new year, etc. to the Varric thread!

Is that Biowares Mary Kirby? Our Mary? ...Huh. Well if that's the case, then I no longer doubt her ability to write romances.

*sigh* No, that's not me. Maria was making a joke. That book was written in 1983.  I was six. Although I'm sure I could have written a fascinating guide to meeting men when I was six, it would have involved robots from space and possibly unicorns.

It would involve that if you were to write it today too.

Actually, if I wrote it today, it would probably contain more ninjas.

But there have been giant skeletons of doom with glowy eyes before and there will inevitably be giant skeletons of doom with glowy eyes after.

Oh, that's definitely true.

[snip smiley joe]

now if this was also BioWare game, i'd start getting worried.

Bioware invented skeletons. Also things that are large. And fighting.

Sheryl has repeatedly said you don't have to romance Isabela, have her as a companions, or even meet her. I'm guessing that the 'hexagons' are filled in as we play at that image comes from the very end.

The image we see is from a specific game and doesn't necessarily mean that everyone will get those companions or that image.

Those are a list of Cassandra's suspects. Not necessarily Hawke's best buddies. Isabela has an important role to play in the story, even if you never meet her. You just won't find out the answer to a particular question at a certain time if you don't.

Also ilomilo. I am a serious puzzle game addict.

Ever tried "The Longest Journey" by Funcom? My favorite puzzle game. Or rather puzzle-Adventure game:P

Yes! Easily one of my favorite games ever. I miss Adventure games. I'm glad to see the Monkey Island series on Xbox live -- it gives me hope of seeing the genre make a comeback.

Is... is the chest hair holding the goblet in that last panel? I think my mind has broken. Well played, Fishmas1, well played.

I have always been a fan of Aimo's work. Yay!

Stop it right now Bioware, I have a life to live. You can't keep putting out compelling footage like this. I can't help but draw DA stuff. ;_;

Also yay they hang out at the same bar Besties! I WILL NEVER LEAVE THAT TAVERN.

Also a VERY pressing question for any lurking devs: who would actually win a drinking contest, either between Isabela and Varric or among the whole group?

That drawing is awesome.

Also, a drinking contest between Isabela and Varric would take forever. Mostly because they would both cheat, and spend all their time trying to catch the other one cheating.

...they probably do this all the time, come to think of it. It's a great con to get the rest of the bar to buy drinks for them...

[David Gaider]

Enough.

Mary is on vacation.

I suggest chilling out a little.

Its not like anyone was threatening to send PMs or stalking her on facebook and twitter.

It was all in good natured fun and silliness. I don't see what the problem is.

It's not a problem. I'm suggesting you chill for your own sakes, as opposed to whipping yourselves up into a frenzy.
