This needs to be a thing! It would be the best fanfic ever!


Bwahaha! At least we entertain ourselves! :wipes tears: This may need to be written. It would be pretty hilarious.


It would make a fantastic story! "Dragon Age 3: The Blunder Years" :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Oh man... stop, you are keeling me! The Blunder Years!

Intro montage:

Sassy rogue stands perplexed among a sea of nugs teeming all over the floor of a tavern. The rogues expression says, "I didn't do it!"

PC and our party are in the foreground, quietly consulting a map. Suddenly, behind them sprints the Tevintan mage, hell bent for leather. The party pauses, looks after him, then glances back from where he came. Suddenly, they run off after him, followed by a large group of templars running after them all.

PC and party stand in an old tomb, covered in layers of horrible gore and goop, pulling it out of their hair, wiping it distastefully off their weapons. Behind them are the remains of several enormous demons. Cullen stands to the side, arms crossed, looking bright, shiny and clean. He takes a step toward PC, slips on some gore, and falls into a puddle of it. Hilarity ensues...


LMAO!

The monsterous demon looms over the party. Taking a deep breath our brave protagonist hurtles himself/herself at the beast, hacking and slashing away at it's gigantic foot. In the mayhem the heroes cloak comes loose and becomes tangled around the demons leg, the top corner of it snagging on a nearby rock...

As the furious abomination prepares to strike it's killing blow, it loses it's footing. The monster stumbles, tripping over the shabby cloak still wrapped around it's leg, causing an avalanche of rocks to fall from the ceiling, killing the monstrosity instantly.

Slowly the party pull themselves onto their feet.

Protagonist: "Behold! The holy cloak of excellence! It's mighty powers doing the bidding of it's master!"

*Que epic kazoo music of win!*

Aw, that sucks about the lack of Internet and sickness!

I've got Skyrim on my PS3, I've completed the main quest and stuff but I found it pretty boring. I did manage to make an attractive Nord female though lol. I can only imagine how pretty DA3 could end up looking, although I'm hoping the previous DA characters like Cullen etc won't look too unrecognisable.


Cullen has only gotten better looking from DAO to DA2 so I have high hopes he will either look pretty much as he did in DA2 or even better!! Just because of the graphics upgrade; his hair will look more realistically curly, etc. He'll still be our sexy templar beast lol

I can see how it would be massively boring for some folks, and it could get that way for me, but right now since I have absolutely nothing else to do at home, other than read (which I do occasionally), I'm enjoying just exploring and getting occasional glimpses of my pretty elf. Okay, calling him pretty might be an exaggeration lol he's a handsome devil, let's say, I mean in comparison to the freaks who pass as elves in this game lol

I think it'd be easier to make a pretty human male, and even easier to make a pretty human female, although I have to give kudos to the creators... they have made males and females pretty much equally alien/freakish looking lol

Yeah, I'm hoping specificially that he'll look pretty much the same even if it is slightly more realistic looking. Although I wouldn't be surprised if they hit him with the ugly stick to teach us a lesson for squeeing about him for years LOL.

He didn't, he just realised (at the last minute) that she was stark raving bonkers.

Actually, that was a little harsh of me. It wasn't really at the last minute. He starts questioning things from Act 2, but he doesn't actively put a stop to her until the end of Act 3 lol. If you play as pro-Templar you see him arguing with her and tries to save a bunch of mages (the final decision of whether they get to live or not is up to Hawke though).

Most military organizations have protocols in place for removing superior officers who have become unfit for command. We've never seen any codex entries regarding the templar operating procedures, but they must exist.

That reminds me of the Horatio Hornblower episodes about the mutiny. HH's captain went off the deep end, so the officers and crew staged a mutiny. The episodes were flashbacks that took place during HH's court marshal, where a large portion of the tension came from proving (posthumously) that the captain was far enough off his rocker to be incapacitated.

And that's why I think Cullen will be in Orlais. It would be highly logical for Cullen to have to stand trial for his actions in the final confrontation of DA2. I would imagine that he, too, would have to prove that his superior officer was crazy... among other charges.

This about covers it, along with Lola's evidence of Meredith unfitness. :police:

Ah, Horatio Hornblower... been meaning to watch that. Ioan Gruffudd at his hottest. LOL

Aw man, trust me to notice a bunch of typos in my posts once I've got off the computer. It's impossible for me to edit big posts on my iPhone. Balls.

^ I think BSN should become an app, so they can remedy that.

OK... don't kill me, but I saw this suggestion a few pages back, and I think we need some new banners. LMVAO

You'll have to add that to your list along with North and South!

I would imagine that Horatio Hornblower would appeal especially to someone who appreciates Cullen's devotion to duty. It's a big part of HH's character.

LOL I did... it just didn't quite register I think. And, honestly, I just adore making banners. Dunno why, so needed an idea.

Lola, if it's easier to cut and paste on your phone, here's the code for the banner, minus spaces.

I've bought a few games from EA directly via download, and they worked out fine. Trying to remember what they were... I thought it was nice not having to worry about where the CD/DVD was, etc. Haven't bought online from gamespot, though, just in their store.
