Gideon Emery.  With a banana.

Just thought I'd put that out there.

:o

He so looks the part!  Minus the big ears and tattoos.


The resemblance is strong! I wonder if the designers were inspired by the voice actors, like how Miranda in ME2 was modeled after her voice actress. In Mr. Emery's FB page, he was a picture of him with what I think are the tools used to capture/map out faces for CG. (Sorry, I forget what they're called.)

I can see it!  The little smile looks very similar.

I loved that dialogue because for me it came after he left her, so it was like an affirmation that he still cared. So bittersweet.

Me too! We're in act 2 limbo and it sucks. I'm ready to skip all side quests to get to act 3.

I got that on my current PT where my mage had her little tryst with Fenris and then ended it after he left her.  She then went to Anders.  So to me, it was just cruel and bad timing of the dialogue :)

I don't see any resemblance, but hot damn, I didn't realize Gideon Emery was so hot.  :wub:

Don't know if anyone has brought this up yet, but in the end game battle with Meredith, right as she was about to die, she IMPALED Fenris on that big ass sword and said something along the lines of "How does it feel to know I hold the life of the one you love in my hands, Champion?" I was not pleased, to put it mildly. She died pretty quick after that. I'm fairly sure that this happens with all the LI's, but I think it's a small example of Fridge Brilliance with Fenris, since, hey, he could probably take an impalement and live to tell about it, what with his phasing abilities. Having a quasi-intangible boyfriend would definitely put one's mind at ease on the battle field.

WOAH. I didn't get this! That is awesomely dramatic.

She did grab me though the second time I did the fight though, which didn't happen the first. Wow. Drama!

"Take an impalement", hurr hurr.

Sorry. :innocent:

I never got that! It seems like it's so easy to do things out of order or mess things up. It's a very delicate balance if you want to keep things on track. For example, I got the Merrill-Fenris banter about being in love AFTER Hawke and Fen had reconciled. And then you have these random impalements (lol) that come up for some but not for others. And it can be impossible to tell the triggers.

Whoa! I'm so glad to know that it wasn't just me that got a little clip like that! I didn't get it with Fenris even though I romanced the everloving crap out of him, but I did get it with Aveline (though she wasn't in my main party) and I don't think any of my friends have gotten anything similar.

I'm glad it wasn't Fenris for me. I flipped out badly enough for Aveline! :crying:

Dude, I totally didn't get a scene like that at all with anyone ._.  was it a little cutscene or was it just sorta in battle?  If it was just sorta in battle that might be why I missed it

My best friend got this one, actually! With the same quote! I was going to ask if anyone else had seen it, but I didn't get around to it. What difficulty were you playing on, Ineffable?

I got a speech with Meredith most people didn't, either, where she has a moment of clarity and doubts herself and realizes she's gone off the track ... and then the idol regains control. Very tragic. But I'd rather her have gone for Fenris, so dramatic.

I heard that one too. This kind of makes me want to draw out the fight next time to get all of her different little dialogues!

She impaled me instead. So rude. Naturally, I took a zillion screencaps.

I got that one as well.  No impalement of loved ones, though.

...hang on a minute.  Actually, I have a vague memory of her impaling Hawke my first time around.  I remember seeing Hawke flailing and shishkebob'd.  She might have said something as well, but I was too busy watching my health gauge going "OH MY GOD GONNA DIIIIEEEE".  Maybe I'm misremembering it?  :huh:

Aaahhh, so I didn't remember it wrong.  Does she still say the line about a loved one though?  Because that is full of lulz if she does.

No she did that to me too the last time. I got that and the monologue about her doubting herself, so I don't think they're mutually exclusive.

Heh, casual.:blush:  The trend that began in Origins of "Must switch difficulty in Deep Roads for there to be any hope of survival" carried through into DA2.  I have this nasty habit of ignoring tactics and neglecting armor upgrades.  

I got the Meredith speech where she doubts herself too.  It made me sad and more sympathetic (it was the sword after all, driving her insane), but that kind of evaporated the second she stuck a sword through Fenris's torso and started waving him around mocking me about it.  My Mage!Hawke made it rain fire, epic RAGE. 

I think who she sticks with the sword depends on who's closest.  I had Fenris, Isabela, and Merrill with me and Izzy was KO'd, so since I was a mage too Fenris was the only one close enough.  Looked awful too, she was just holding him aloft and he was thrashing around and sliding down the blade.  Ugh.  At least that's what I remember, my inner-Varric is probably embelishing for future fanfic purposes.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to be THAT PERSON who romances him on every stupid playthrough :( I keep thinking that I really SHOULD see the Anders romance, considering the role he ends up playing in the main story, but the thought of NOT romancing Fenris makes me feel sad and empty.

I absolutely loved that I could play a mage and still get to wear pants.  I kept my armor really low throughout the entire game just because of aesthetic reasons.  Silly, I know, but I hate those stupid robes.  Were there any more armor sets for mages besides the two with pants, or did I just miss them somehow?


And also, I mean, why not just wear a big "HELLO I AM AN APOSTATE" sign stapled to your forehead? Not that anyone seems to notice, but still....

I am sure one of those days, a long, long time from now I'll manage to ignore the Bait and Switch and try other ones, but currently it doesn't seem likely. *laugh*

::snerk::  Another awesome scene ruined by my complete immaturity:

Meredith: How does it feel to know I hold the life of the one you love in my hands, Champion?
Hawke: Glurgh... it's me up here
Meredith: Oh, so it is.  I meant to stab that guy ::waves Hawke-kebob at Fenris::
Hawke: Ow.
Fenris: 0_0  Phew, dodged a bullet there... um... I mean, are you okay?!
Hawke: ::wheeze:: Ow ow ow, why didn't I wait until after the battle to run off my best healer?!
