yup. Ostagar priestess. She says "Do you want the Maker's blessing?".

You say, "No I believe in a different religion" (might be a tad nicer than the actual option.)

She calls you a heathen. Makes you feel loved

It's worse. She goes "begon heathen." like you're the scum underneath her shoe. 

I wanted to smack the s*** out of her. 

Do you ever, you know, wanna hug someone?

Talking of Anders' time in the Ferelden Circle, ever since going through Origins again post DA2 I have wished there was an opportunity to bump into Wynne with him. Those two would have a lot to talk about heh. It's funny that we've never seen them together considering that they would have probably known each other outside of the events of the games.

Anders can be there when you meet Wynne and pick up her quest in Awakening.. and he even makes a comment on something she says regarding mages separating from the Circle, but they don't acknowledge each other.  Weird.  Missed opportunity, for sure!  They must have known each other.

I want to hug Alistair. And Fenris. 
Just not preachy chantry sisters.

I did respect the qunari.  Agree?  Not always.  Respect?  Hells to the yeah.

And it's ALWAYS my mage characters who get along with the qunari.  My mage PCs who support mage freedom and have magic practically pouring from every pore.  WTF.

My mage got called a heathen.  Then turned, grinned at a very confuzzled Alistair, and skipped on her merry way.

I miss playing Soria Amell.  She was so fun and lighthearted and spunky.

Awesome. All my characters were all like ":mellow:" to that. Except my Cousland, Gabriel. He was like "whatever." because he was used to it.

This is why the Chantry shouldn't be allowed to exist. Believing in The Maker is one thing, forcing it upon everyone who just wants to believe in their own way is abhorrent. Leliana at least respected and admired my Dalish Elf Warden's religion. She didn't try to convert him. If everyone was like Leliana, the world would be a much happier place. And everyone would love shoes.

I hope Leliana hasn't turned into one of those chantry drones. :/ 

I really hope she hasn't. 

As for the Qunari. Well...none of my PC's get along well well. My mages do tend to get along better though. (Thogh my rogue walking up to the arishok and telling them that their delegates was dead BA. I love that rogue. He and the Arishok both knew he killed them and they knew they were going to kill the other. It was all in the facial expressions. God that is such a BA quest if you're aggressive.).

I am not sure what that has to do with anything? He's never saying he is less free or as restricted as mages. He's more warning Anders that even if the Circles all fall tomorrow, Anders still won't be free. Because the freedom Anders wants does not exist.

Yes, it does.  Anders himself says earlier in that banter that he only ever wanted "the freedom that every man, woman, and child in Thedas is born with" or somesuch.  Sure, there are always restrictions.  No one can do whatever the hell they want.  Anders doesn't want anarchy.  He just wants mages to be able to have families, fall in love, travel...all things that your average Thedas citizen can do without a templar breathing down their spine.

I think you think the people of Thedas have a lot more freedom than they actually do. Oh, you're free to fall in love, but that doesn't mean you can act on it necessarily. You're free to travel ... assuming you have the money, can fight off bandits, that sort of thing.

That's the point. "Freedom" never matters very much in the real world. You are never truly free. We now, in the real world are not truly free. We can't be. Because we don't all live in our own personal bubbles where no one is affected by us. I'm technically "free" to start a family, but I sure as hell don't feel free to do so, because it doesn't happen in a bubble with no consequences.

That is Sebastian's point. And frankly, I'm on his side on this one. Idealism is only going to carry so far, but Anders is setting himself up to be bitterly, bitterly disappointed once he can't blame templars for reasons he can't do stuff.

I love the qunari!

For three reasons:

1) I can respect them.
2) Sten was awesome!
3) Their reaction to this:

Hawke: But I'm a mage!
Qunari: AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! KILL IT!!! KILL IT!!!!!
Hawke: WTF did I do!? 
(I'm sure Fenris was facepalming)

Hawke is apparently terrifying. XD

That's true, but here's the flip side.  If you're not a mage in Thedas, and you do have the means to act on your desires, no one is going to tell you that you can just because of the way you were born.

Freedom is relative.  It's always relative, never absolute.  And I 100% agree with both you and Sebastian there.  What I'm saying is that Anders isn't asking for absolute freedom.  He's asking for relative freedom, for mages to live comparably to the other people in Thedas.  And asking for that is neither unrealistic nor unwarranted.

Hhfhgrhg when I read this post a cat meowed outside my window. DENSITY.

I think you should have this.

I.... I'm not sure that I want that, but thanks.

I know I'm late, I'm catching up with the thread (it's like a drug, I always have to read everything I missed)

This flash is looping in my head. Can't stop.
Meow.

Ohmigod, thanks for the repost. This amused me probably more than it should have done. Brb, dancing like a kitty cat . . .

I can't take the Maker seriously even as a fictional Diety, he's like a child who got bored with a project, got pissed when it didn't go his way, abandoned it to play COD, and only got interested in it again when a nice rack started singing his praises. Then he came...I leave you to finish that yourself.

I mean the Greek Pantheon was all kinds of FUBAR, but at least they cared about the world and people to an extent.

I find his hissy fits pretty Old Testament God, personally. "Oh, some mages broke into heaven, I will punish the ENTIRE WORLD WITH BLIGHTS," is totally an OT God overreaction if I ever saw one.

Which I suppose I haven't.

But go with me here.

The Maker is a bit of a petulant pugnacious ******.

And for all the parallels that get drawn between Jesus and Andraste...Jesus never marched at the head of an army and slaughtered people.  Just saying, I think he was probably a lot more chill of a dude.

Act 2 is easily the best Act. The effort put into the Act's story was amazing. I always go Rogue on my first playthroughs. When the Arishok got pissed off saying "Fixing your mess is not the demand of the Qun! And you should all be grateful!!" I immediately went "bad..... ass....."

The new Qunari look is amazing, those with horns anyway.

I wonder what Sten (and other hornless Qunari) would look like though.
