I hear crickets and such while apparently am talking to the walls.. I get no answers am i on ignore mode tonight or something?

Oh sorry, I went to go find some pork scratchings.

Basically, Penny Arcade, the guys who started and run PAX, did a comic strip parodying the MMO quest thing where you have to kill ten things that are attacking a farm or something, but obviously the problem persists due to the limitations of an MMO. However, these arseholes decided to parody it using 'dickwolves' who raped people. Yeah. Some people complained so they issued a so-called 'apology' which was very callously intended to also be humorous where they were incredibly offensive to victims of rape. Later, they began selling Team Dickwolves t-shirts, and when those got taken down due to the complaints, they then said it was a mistake. Which drew cheers from what I assume must have been the predominately male crowd. So yeah, they're horrible people.

And to add to that, some tweets showed just how transphobic at least one of them is.

Which leak?

Excuse me, I meant 4chan. Nonetheless, it's dated as being from back in early 2013, before the Fires Above ever premiered.

**POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR DAI** I'm dead serious, read at your own risk. Something things do match up, but others not so much.

It predicted like a good 75% of what we know....

Ahh. Dickwolves is a... "thing" that Penny Arcade started a few years ago. http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Dickwolves

Oh yeah, we've seen this one before in here, lol.

 

It's good to look over it again though, especially in light of all the new info we've recently had. Looks to me like it's incredibly accurate. I've actually been saying for some time that if Cullen isn't a companion then he'd probably be the leader of the Red Fists.

[Hellion Rex]

Yeah, but some little details don't add up. And it's been about a year since then, who knows what could have been added or changed between now and then.

I love how these guys are totally in the game now:

 

(just slightly different appearance)

One thing to note about the Red Fists is that it mentions "Celene's brother". I read a crap ton of that Masked Empire preview, and Celene is most definitely an only child.

And I think being an (ex-)Templar, he's waaay to controversial for a pro-mage player to accept him in this neutral position, and he probably wouldn't stand for blood magic or too many anti-Templar decisions either. Which is why I think Mr Mustachio is more likely for that postion.

[LolaLei]

The bit that seems weird, but intriguingly ironic is the Red Templar's wanting to break into the Black City, the very thing that got mages stuck in their towers in the first place, LOL!

 

Also makes me wonder if Corypheus is the big bad!

I'm pro mage, and I would accept him.

There could always be an illegitimate bastard with little interest in the Game.

Yeah, isn't

Ser Micheal

leader of the military, as well as her bodyguard?

Yeah, some things obviously aren't accurate, doesn't mean that the rest of it doesn't hold some truth, though.

Wasn't it said that we'll know who tore open the fade during the opening? 

[Potato Cat]

I'm pro mage, and I would accept him.

Would others? The more extreme pro-magers? To lead the Inquisitor's army?

I think if anything Cory is an agent, perhaps unwittingly, of the big bad. From what we can tell, this big bad has been manipulating stuff from the get go, and Corypheus has been sleeping for centuries now. I think our antagonist is an unknown entity, and a pretty damn powerful one too.

[R2s Muse]

Fabulouuuuus!!

I love you forever for this! bwahahahaha!  

 

Ah, *wiping tears* that makes my very stressful and workfilled Sunday! 

[LolaLei]

Me too. Just because he's ex-Templar doesn't mean he's gonna take an anti-mage stance on everything. At the end of the day the Inquisitor is the boss, and he has to go along with whatever she/he decides.

[Hellion Rex]

Yeah, isn't

Technically I thought Duke Gaspard is in charge of the military as Grand Duke.

[LolaLei]

Yeah, isn't

There we go then. Perhaps the brother idea was scrapped and swapped for Ser Michael/whoever. Either way, in the "leak" it was given as an example, doesn't mean that actual quest is even in the game.

[Hellion Rex]

No, the whole point is trying to figure out who did during the course of the game.
