And KoP, you're great. You're one of the like dozen or slightly more posters that keep me around. There's always a well though out post somewhere by a group of posters and it really helps keep the place interesting.

@KoP: You're totally drunk. Don't deny it.
Drunk with your unimaginable grace and beauty my dear

I am sooo tired and yet soo not sleepy. What a weird phenomenon.

I wanted to back hand slap that Chantry banshee that claimed her followers weren't misinformed sheep when she just admitted to trying to start a conflict with the qunari under false pretenses.

It's also odd how mages are really powerful spell casters....demons are capable spell casters...they combine....and now they're extremely weak melee units.
....that's....that's intelligent.

Oh yes Peatrice needed a good backhand.

I know where I would have slapped her....several times.
Really could've died happy without that mental image.

Yeah. Maybe it's some sort of destructive interference: one top wave meets a bottom wave and then they nullify each other. Only this time they end up looking like cancer tumours who fight by flapping their arms around a little. I mean, seriously.

Yeah...they don't even use any spells do that? What's up with that?

Crazy because the plot demands it is not interesting in the slightest.

First, to me it's obvious that the
writers were trying to create a very gray, ambiguous situation where
it's really difficult to say who's right and who's wrong.

Yeah, I agree it wasn't done well. But the bolded part probably wasn't what they'd intended. I believe their intentions were what you said in the first part of your post. They failed, yes. For some more than for others. I appreciate the intention, but I understand that it's not sufficient for everyone.Foolsfolly wrote...
Ideally, there'd be good people on both sides and bad people on both sides. But the argument would always be at its core, is it better to protect the majority at the expense of the minority or better to treat the minority as an equal despite the potential risks.
Done correctly, this argument would be so big, so interesting, and gray that we'd all be talking about it now. This thread wouldn't have slid into 3 pages of Loghain discussion. This forum would be constantly busy with new threads fighting their sides.
It was poorly handled. Both sides are idiots, both sides are led by insanity and chaos. And the game pretty much laughs at any attempt to have a rational opinion on the discussion.
In fact, the discussion is thrown away the moment Anders blows up the Chantry. It's no longer about freedoms or security it's about "do I agree with slaughtering a group that didn't blow up the Chantry" or not.
The game, and by extension the writers, never seemed that interested in telling a tale where both sides were correct. They wanted you to pick between one stupid choice or another...and then laugh and say both endings are the same.

I actually wish it was their intention to make people laugh. It would have been an awesome political social satire.

Well Mana Clash requires 33 magic. What are the odds of finding one of those in the mage tower?
