In regards to Templars using Lyrium, didn't Alistair say that Templars don't need Lyrium to use their abilties, only make them more effective? Given that it's the Chantry that supplies it, he suspected they were using the addiction as a control method?


That was his theory, yes. DG later suggested that it was just him speculating lol. 



But that wasn't even his theory. He said he never taken lyrium himself, but he was told that lyrium makes templar abilities more effective. His theory was actually that the lyrium doesn't even make the templar abilites more effective. The Chantry is just using it to control the templars.

The writers have definitely been sketchy on the lyrium/no lyrium needed topic. :/
I think DG has decided to stick with the "needed" theory, but in my humble fan opinion that was the wrong choice.

also, thanks to deuce for noticing me. :D

That's what we're talking about, that Alistair didn't think that lyrium made the Templar abilities more effective. Alistair also said that he never took lyrium himself, but then David Gaider said the following:

"Even if Templar magic was recognized as spellcasting, it's not innate to the Templars, if they just stopped taking lyrium eventually they would lose the ability. Although as Alistair proves, they can use the ability for a long time afterwards."

Which means that Alistair must have taken it at least once in order to gain those abilities in the first place. Basically, DG either forgot that Alistair said he'd never taken lyrium or he decided to change it for whatever reason lol.

Agreed. The controversy would've been wild upon discovering that little secret in-game!

So *coughcough* Isn't my new Warden cute :P Yeah I couldn't last more than a few hours playing a HN. YES I will return to him because I want to make him king; never done that. But I couldn't resist making yet another elf... even if he likes exactly like all the other elves I've ever made....

I'm actually trying to write a DA:O Dalish Warden fanfic, so this playthrough is going to go slowly, so I can get everything right.

Gosh, when he turns up later it's so sad! I don't think he declares his love to a male Dalish Elf, but to the female he says "always... loved you... l'ethaline" (or however you spell it LOL). Sooooo heart breaking.

DAMN IT TAMLEN!!!!!! :crying:

I hope DA3 doesn't pull this crap on us lol Haven't we been talking about a childhood LI as a possible companion? And having to choose between him/her and someone like Cullen? Okay I can choose Cullen, but DON'T murder the childhood LI, BW. Most especially, don't make ME murder him!!

Yeah, we were lol.

Man, it would suck so bad if the protagonist and his/her childhood friend took different sides (depending on what choice you picked he/she would pick the other) and you'd end up actually having to kill your friend for whatever reason.

Me too. Even the protagonist's Surname or default first name would make the fanfic process easier!

You'd think I'd be used to waiting for DA3 news now, but I swear the waiting gets worse with each passing week.

I guessed that we probably wouldn't hear anything until April at the earliest, but initially not being told when in Spring we'd hear anything kinda made the wait easier since we didn't know if we'd get a reveal in March, June or any month in between. Now I know we won't hear anything in March I feel even more impatient lol.

The problem is, I haven't read Asunder, so I don't know ANYTHING about what might happen. :?

All I am doing for it is drawing a picture, haha. See how long its taken me? Well, I procrastinate all the time, an issue I really need to work on. But its turning out pretty good, I think.

You should make another youtube video, and the song can be something about rain or storms, hehe. I love your videos (along with the fanfiction that you never write! lol)

I remember seeing a pretty good run down on the Dragon Age wiki a while back, but I've never been able to find it again.

I thought about doing another video but there's very limited Cullen footage for me to work on. I pretty much used it all up doing the last Cullen video lol.

Lola, you're so funny. Yes, the wiki has a pretty comprehensive plot description. On the DA: Asunder  page! LOL

If you don't want to wade through the whole thing, we could probably summarize the most important points.

Yesyes yes, write something!! :wizard:

Seriously, how do you manage to track that stuff down? I'll stumble across something but then never find the bloody thing again when running a later search lol.
