So comparing Anders to Zoolander's Hansel made me think of this possible Anders/Warden reunion

Anders:
So I'm climbing to the top of the Chantry to plant a bomb when suddenly
I slip, and I start to fall. Just falling, ahh ahh, I'll never forget
the terror. When suddenly I realize "Holy ****, Anders, haven't you been
drinking lyrium for six straight days, and couldn't some of this maybe
be in your head?"
Warden: And?
Anders: And it was. I was totally fine.  I've never even been to Kirkwall.


*snicker*

Oh yes. 



Those have me LAUGHING FOREVER!!1 :D

To be fair, it's pretty horrible what he does. You don't necessarily avoid condemning a murderer just because by day he helped orphans.


It's reprehensible, but at the same time the level of seething hatred some of the forumers have towards Anders just boggles my mind. It's the "I want him to come back so I can murder-knife him again, lawl" levels of vitriol that makes me sigh.


True... a lot of the threads I see that are not even  started about Anders deviate to it in a "let the murder knife reign supreme way"  A lot of why I love this thread


I made the mistake of wandering into the other forums today. I'm surprised at how many people seem to really hate this game. My husband and I are on are 3rd and 4th playthroughs and have played it more than DA:O. I had no idea it was so despised. Think I'll stay in here with the kitten pics and Twix jokes. Much nicer.

Because a lot of it feels half-assed.

Musical gearshift! I was just listening to my favourites playlist on youtube and this song popped up, which I'd forgotten all about, but it's awesome and I got Anderflashes.

Sia - I'm In Here


Sia has a lot of great songs; Breathe Me and Soon We'll Be Found are another couple  of really good ones.  :)

I know what you mean.  I don't even go into the general discussion thread anymore because it's all, "BIOWARE NEEDS TO APOLOGIZE FOR THIS ATROCITY OF A GAME" "DA2 IS WORSE THAN CHILD LABOR" "SOMEONE NEEDS TO FIRE X EMPLOYEE" "EVERYTHING IS EA's FAULT"

I second this alternative. That's what's so unattractive about Sebastian. He's vastly moralistic with only one narrow view of the world. When he told Anders that the Chantry will kill him, he goes on to pompously declare that Anders shouldn't compare himself to Andraste. Anders is doing something worthwhile for an ENTIRE group of people, while Sebastian sits idly, following Chantry principles and not doing a damn thing to change its injustices.

The joke will be on him when Anders ends up exactly like Andraste, with his own creepy cult to boot :innocent:


Eh, only if it involves noodly appendages. Assisted suicides and consumption of sex organs in the name of Anders....I'll have to pass. :sick:


He better have his own car emblem too - like an Anders Fish.

@Shiba:

I'm surprised at the hate as well. However, I think a lot of those people hate it because they hated it since it was announced, and they don't want to like it.

So far I'm liking it more than Origins.

Agreed. Although, the massive amounts of Anders hate isn't really phasing me. Then again, I am also an unrepentant Loghain fangirl, so... my skin got thick here pretty quick. LOL

Oh, and I know it was over 30 pages back, but just had to say you guys keep me in stitches. Seriously. Whenever work got bad today, I'd think back to "my prettiest hobo" or "creepy Anders and his disturbing Hawke love shrine and stealing undergarments to smell them later" comments and LOL my butt off. Pure gold, this thread. Also, all the creeper comments made me think about a potential tongue-in-cheek banner in the same vein as "Merril, she's a keeper".... "Anders, he's a creeper."

Personally I liked Origins more. It felt like a more complete experience. I had stayed away from the news in regards to Dragon Age 2 and managed to feel like I'd gotten only part of a project once I had finished it.

Well yes, there is a big difference between people with thought out opinions and gits.

I've heard DA2 described as "75% of a better game than Origins", and I think that sums up how I feel about it pretty well. I love what's there, but it probably would have been better if they'd had more time to work on it. Anders makes up for most of the recycled dungeons and ghoul hands, though.

All the hate really does baffle me. I haven't seen such a concentrated effort to **** all over anything since, what, furries in 2005? There are so many games that are so much worse.

You know you have DA on the brain when you have a fit model right in front of you to draw and end up with an Anders doodle.

>_>


Pics or it didn't happen etc

Also @general topic, DA2 made me hurt worse than kidney stones.

Childbirth has no comparison but it was a good kind of hurt after a while.

But really, it's the same old story. 
If it was called "Kitten Age" it would have been a totally nice RPG. 

Whatever you put a "2" in the tile, this is going to happen. I personally like both games, for different reasons. But I like the fact that they dared to change. Sure, a bit more time could have granted us less boring levels and less bugs (some are game-breaking, really, they need to test more...). But the game is perfectly fine, no need to start those flame wars...

I think most are in agreement that more time could have been spent on it to give us a more polished product. Love interests for me won't compisate for ****** poor execution because they are a mere fragment of a larger piece. Recycled dungeons, ninja enemies, and seven in-game years that pass like weeks just to name a few.

I don't consider Fable to be a pinacle of gaming perfection but Molyneux knows how to convey the passage of time. Their production time passed like Kirkwalls days. In a blink of an eye.

God, I know.

I did a double-take the first time she brought her hand up to her face. I had to reload the game and replay that scene just to make sure I wasn't imagining her 95-year-old-lady hands. Was she burnt in a magic experiment gone horribly wrong or what?

If they had put DA:O style pda in the game, it would beat Origins hands down for me. ;)
Anders: Haven't we seen this dungeon before?
Hawke: Who cares?! Snog me again big boy!

Unrelated to Anders (unless you take it as a reaction face to something he did), but still, screenshot timing is (not?) my forte.
