I think the kind of authors who would do something like that would be more likely to pen My Immortal than Dragon Age.

Do you ever wonder if some of the BW people have fake accounts on here? That way they can totally geek out about their awesome creations without getting in trouble. Like maybe HighCastle is REALLY Gaider and Yami is ACTUALLY Hepler!

*Edit*  Maybe Howden is SurelyForth!

I get to be Gaider?!?!

Don't worry, if I were Gaider, every LI in the game would be bi. Wait...

Man, I'd love to write for a beloved game . . . too bad most of my writing experience is technical articles. I've been published, though! Sadly, good writers are needed in the field of engineering (my god, my former boss wouldn't have been able to string two words together if it wasn't for me), so my choice is between where I'm needed and my ideal . . . so fanfiction it is, when I've got the time! (read: not to damn often)

Also, it's awesome Ms. Hepler is visiting us in our little nuthouse

Have a kitten!

nuthouse, you say ? Loving Anders is just too natural and easy to feel weird XD But I probably SHOULD try and pursue another hobby other than thinking about Anders haha. Might try my hand at drawing

And about working for Bioware... well, seeing how I am once again unemployed... *sigh*
Not that I would move to the other side of the world. Not even for the best job in the world  

Writing without a degree hardly gets you anywhere here though. Of course, I could go and write the next Twilight, but I do have half a brain and don't go weak at the knees all that easily (uh... forget about some exceptions )

If I'm really Hepler, then judging by my posts recently, Varranders is canon.

You want a DLC I will run, not walk, to buy? (Metaphorically speaking, of course.)

A buddy adventure with Anders and Varric. Maybe it starts with a bar fight, then a quest, then they end up dungeon crawling together while discussing Bianca, staves, drinking, travel, Hawke, and sex. Oh, and there's phat lewtz at the end.

It should be -just them- too. And maybe Dog.

Edited to add: And there totally should be a conversation chain where Varric asks Anders about his origins, and should involve Anders, at first, refusing to admit if he knows any Ander at all. Then, randomly, he drops a phrase here and there, something silly, like, "I put the cheese in your sock." And then, there should be a random song.

Because Adam Howden needs a paycheck, and whoever Varric's VO is.

Morning all. *coffee*

@Yami: Oh dear. What have we done??


Maybe once I learn to weld I can make a statue of Anders out of old car parts.

[AstraDrakkar]

Well, I just went and bought some BW points in hopes of new Anders conversation in the DLC coming out. Oh please let there be some fresh conversation!

To my knowledge, Bioware Austin is still currently hiring and require no previous game writing experience, just an understanding of Bioware-style storytelling and a kick-ass sample.

If you guys ever end up with a studio or sub-studio in northeast Florida, I would think I'd died and gone to heaven. I'd apply with a writing portfolio in a heartbeat, but with a family and house we plan to live out our lives in, moving to Edmonton or Austin just isn't an option.

But writing for a game development company would be a dream, for sure. Don't suppose there's ever any options for folks to contribute remotely or a work-from-home (due to living out-of-state) basis? Or freelance?

Hah! This thread is a monument to narcissism, then!

And I'm pretending like I didn't see that post from Jennifer about BW Austin hiring. I'm at a crossroads right now, I covet Austin and one of my good e-friends is moving there later this month. It feels like a sign even though I believe that's more the KotOR branch, and I certainly cannot write sci-fi.

Hell yes! I don't care how many people are like "BOO BIOWARE U CANT MAKE IT UP 2 US!!! IM NOT PAYING $10 FOR THIS CRAP" ..... I really want it. I love that image of him bent over covering his head with his hands in struggle and then he explodes in Justice mode like BOOM! TIME TO PUT SOME HURT ON SOMEBODY. Hehehehe.

Really. Go out to a movie theater for $10 bucks for 2 hours. Or DLC that you can play multiple times... *shrug* o_o

Can't is a dirty word, and Sci-Fi is just fantasy with a different set of boots on. Star Wars, especially. If you've at least seen all the movies and played KotOR (and if you haven't done either of those things, how are you on the internet?), it's pretty easy to adapt stories into the world. You've already got swords and "magic" in the form of jedi powers. All you have to do is replace ships with spaceships and give some people some guns. *dusts hands*

And now that I'm all caught up with the thread, I noticed you guys had a nice JAnders conversation while I was incapacitated... one that I definitely have things to say about. So maybe I'll do some of that this morning. Heh.

Erm. I haven't played KotOR. 9-9 Sniff. But I only got the 360 in March, and Dragon Age has devoured my soul.

But yes, really. And BioWare has a strong bent towards the characters themselves. An adventure is an adventure, and if you're just writing, well, it's not like you necessarily have to come up with the environments and technological details. Although I guess I don't know too much about it myself, maybe you would.

Which JAnders conversation would that be? The one that started with the question of whether Anders is possessed or not? Cuz you know we'll wanna hear that stuff from you.

I woke up with the Cat Dance Song in my head. This flash of Anders dancing to it makes me so happy! Cheers!

This is exactly what I mean!  I am sure many, many people at BioWare want to express their perverse love for Anders, Nanders, Mermanders, Varranders, and so on, but they cant for fear of screwing up the DA canon.  So they have to create fake personas so they can squee and write about Anders doing crazy, crazy things without making the DA universe implode!

Honestly? I leave the forums for like 24 hours and I miss Hepler? (Note to self - Never leave.)

If you're still reading this, I hope baby Hepler is happy and healthy, congratulations.

And yes! Any Anders dialogue makes me warm and fuzzy, and terribly excited. Roll on the 26th!!!
