He hasn't realized how utterly immune to trolling we are in here yet.  Soon he will join the dark side and be covered in mayonnaise and kisses.


I think this topic has come up with more cruel jokes about Anders than the haters ever can.

I'll admit, that bit with the Qunari was the one thing to really bring the troll out of my diplomatic Hawke. I knew it would end badly, but I really couldn't resist her bringing up that Anders was a mage and he was a swell guy.


I felt like an ass being a mage and only pointing out that Anders was a mage. :P


Haha, I didn't know you could do that. I haven't played a mage yet. That's pretty hilarious though.

RE: Story Disconnect

Someone on another forum decided to handwave the enemies materializing from nowhere as Varric being the worst DM in the world. So basically, he's telling Cassandra these stories of EPIC BATTLES and he just doesn't know when to stop.

Varric: That's when ten more bandits fell out of the sky!
Varric: And four of them exploded into abominations. The flamey kind that disappear as soon as you get to them and then attack your mages!
Hawke: Goddammit, Varric.
Cassandra: :mellow:


This.  I don't think it was intentional on the developers' part, since this kind of gameplay/story disconnect is pretty much the norm for almost every videogame ever made.  DA2 is just lucky in that it has a particularly awesome way of handwaving it that is PURE GENIUS.

I can forgive all of it because I just imagine it is Varric getting a bit overzealous with his retelling.  Abominations probably were horrifically dangerous creatures and one could bring down an entire squad of templars.  Varric just decided it would make for a better story if Hawke fought seven of them at one time instead of one. :P

Also, I love the idea of Varric as a DM.  You know he would insist on being the DM, too.  I desperately want a comic or something now in the style of DM of the Rings, or a comic with Varric reading out his descriptive backstory and getting SO INTO IT, while the rest of the crew gets bored.

Yeah, he just pipes up saying "AS AM I~~" like he didn't want to be left out of the "Hey I am a mage let me tell you how much of a mage I am at every opportunity" club.

Is this during the ketojan quest? I didn't even know you could say that you were a mage. My mage Hawke couldn't and was disappointed by it. I had Anders and Merrill with me and they got into a conversation about how they were "really nice people" lol

I'm not aware of one, but until someone writes one, and THEY SHOULD, here's a DAO one bye evie vie to tide you over.

Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies

edit:
If Anders were playing Hideouts & Mobsters with them, my guess is his class would be Protester and his battle cry would be "Suck on a Molotov!"

I took Mage!Hawke, Anders, Merril and Fenris on that quest just to see what would happen.

Hawke: It's cool guys - I'm a mage, and everybody loves me!
Anders: Me too!
Merril: Me too!
Fenris: ...

I hope mage pride parades also involve phallic floats and assless chaps.

Annnd this is why my magey Hawkes tell everyone who will listen that they're mages. The Anders commentary that follows is worth it.

It only makes sense once you're the "Champion". Up until act 3 though there's little reason as to why you're not arrested. Social status is a moot point because the series has shown regardless of status you're sent to the Circle if you are a mage.


Actually, you only really need to account for the story up until...you meet Cullen. Once you help him with embarassing templar business, they're probably not in a huge hurry to turn you in (as long as you keep helping to their satisfaction).

Then there's the business with Saemus, which earns you some amount of respect from the Viscount.

Beyond that you have the City Guard which...Aveline. So, while it doesn't really make sense for people to talk to you like you're not a mage, I can see why Hawke and co. get away with what they do.

Suddenly it all makes sense! THAT'S why I'd tell the Templars I'm a mage. "I'm sorry, Cullen, but Anders makes the cutest little comments whenever I tell someone that--wait, I'm 'under arrest'--? Oh well, it was worth it."

But you meet Cullen early on("Mages aren't like you and I") and he doesn't give much thought into your magery. He doesn't do anything about the Chantry bomb either.

Also it's funny taking Carta thugs out in front of the Templar at the docks to only have him question you about the mage underground afterwards.

Hahaha. So, my main Hawke is a warrior, but I get a sick pleasure from dragging Anders along when I go to the Gallows and especially when I talk to Templars. I love having him get all up in their faces, especially when he yells at Meredith. Part of me knows it's obnoxious and ridiculous. The rest of me just loooves it.

Hmm, maybe my diplomatic Hawke really is troll!Hawke. ^_^

Well duh, it wouldn't be much of a mage pride parade without that!
