surely i'm not alone in having gotten sick of demons and posessions?
i understand that the veil is weak in kirkwall, but practically every evil deed was done by someone posessed by something or on suggestion by a demon! The only meaningful baddie i can think of that wasn't posessed or in cahoots with demons was the Arishok. I really hoped meredith was just crazy, but no she had some superpowering sword that made her crazy and paranoid. I fondly remember the time when Loghain was crazy and paranoid without help of red kryptoni...lyrium, although he did have Howe.
heck even Anders was posessed!

what did we have then?
the Arishok
Ser Alrik (which i wish had a bigger presence, apart from mages turning up tranquil all the time)
who else? (definitely missing some, right?)

so, anyone else disappointed there weren't more baddies who weren't driven to it by magic?

That was the point of the game. It's easy to side with an oppressed people, but they wanted to show you WHY they were oppressed. So basically, you're asking us if we wished it had another story.

I kind of agree though... I mean, if I sided with the mages, I still got attacked repeatedly by generic blood mages. Why? Hawke was a blood mage... so why can't he have some backup? The whole story just seemed a little weak in that regard. Hawke had no control over the events in Kirkwall, and the player had no control over Hawke. Aside from his or her personality, of course.

And yeah, bargaining with demons is almost always a bad thing, but damn. Not even one good mage in the entire game? Every blood mage besides Hawke was actually an abomination? I just don't buy it.

no, what i mean is more in line with what is said here http://social.biowar...4/index/6543390

most antagonists weren't that much developed apart from saying that demons made them do it (for example) and so many of them were like that. and what i was asking was if anyone else missed having more well developed antagonists who aren't somehow made crazy be demons or whatnot

edit: yeesh, i must be tired, this post reads like crap. time to draw the "english is my third language, so  don't complain" card

I think that's why Ander felt he had to take matters into his own hands. I think Kirkwall was probably the most oppressed place in Thedas? Ferelden was just some tension, but the Circle in Kirkwall was called the Gallows.

Excuse me? What well-developed antagonist are you talking about? The Archdemon? :whistle: Loghain was also classified "insane."

"English is my third language, so don't complain" card officially drawn. i don't think at the moment i'm capable to explain what i mean in an understandable way
