It's a harmless 'funny' video..

I believe David Gaider saw this via his twitter account and was very amused...

I saw this video and i thought.. 'meh'....

So OP, what is your intention by making a thread about this?

Pious_August is baiting people into debates, in other words, trolling.

Take it somewhere else. There is enough BS on this site.

Yes that’s why you should go and flame people and accuse someone of being a homophobe when the original message said this topic was not about that until people clearly made it into that


Once again: No. Specifically the part about paralepsis:

The device is typically used to distance the speaker from unfair
claims, while still bringing them up. For instance, a politician might
say, "I don't even want to talk about the allegations that my opponent
is a drunk."


You knew exactly what you were doing by the way you phrased your OP. Stop lying.

OP's fault for clicking the heart option.


You get it from being diplomatic NO hearts involved. How many times do I have to say this. ugh
Don't believe me? Try it yourself.

Just be snarky next time and you avoid it all.


Actually you can also pick the the Sarcastic route and he'll still hit on you.


Modded your game? Otherwise no he doesn't.

He makes an advance on you, you do not need to say yes to his advances.


Yes, if you choose a heart or diplomatic otherwise no he doesn't. It doesn't bother me either way. But some people get extreme about such things.

If it was intended to be homophobic then it was trolling. If it wasn't intended to be homophobic then it wouldn't be posted at all. That's the problem. People think that being called an homophobe is an insult, but homophobia is a state of mind. It's the irrational fear for non-heteros. It is still insulting, though. But for another reason. Acting like a homophobe is insulting to those non-heteros. Confusing, isn't it? It's true unfortunately.


Oh so the video itself is a troll video? So basically again if we post a part of a controversial part of the game we should not mention this is not about those controversies? But then I don’t put that warning and then you guys just flame away again you all are itching for a fight

Again...a suggestion. It's not the video, it's how you presented it. Your disclaimers complicated things, whether or not that was your intention, that is what has happened. Adding all sorts of warning, disclaimers and the like left the intent of your thread questionable. And how you have proceeded to argue or state your case has furthered that.

You clearly consider something within the video to be controversial, since you have brought up "controversial topic" many times now.

Also, generalizing people as a "lynch mob" (as you did on the last page) is a bit inflammatory. Not to mention rude.

You could assume why like everyone else or you can read what I said that this was not about such and such but just about the video and enjoy

Me generalizing its amazing you're mentioning that word since you all are doing such a good job

Pure and simple if I had disclaimers or not you all would react the same way. Right now your argument is disclaimers don't matter if I didn't mention them you would have been arguing I put up a warning. And yes now I am assuming seeing you all have been doing such a good job at that since this topic began I might as well start right?

That's what you were using paralepsis to do, yes. To instigate, a.k.a. "troll." Something you continue to http://dictionary.re....com/browse/lie about.

Video is funny

Whats even more funny is how some ppl dislike anders yet dislike turning him down even more

sexual orientation of characters is beside the point
isnt not entering a relationship you dont want worth those 10 rivalry points?

you tell him 'no' and hes unhappy
those things happen between boys and girls too

How is that funny? I dislike Anders a great deal, but I still know it sucks to tell someone you like them and for them to reject you.

I love my Lady Hawke and Merrill and I love my male Hawke and Fenris. I haven't played a male Hawke and Anders but the OP has persuaded me that I should do this immediately! If only to visualise him crying.

Did you even go to that link before you started insulting someone? If you did you would notice that is Kotaku's main title for the topic for the video. http://kotaku.com/58...creation-option

Great job

Looks like generalizing to me.

Show me where I personally called you a homophobe, or anything negative. Please. Because perhaps in my old age, I may have already forgotten that I said any such thing.

If you can't find any such quote, but continue to use "you all" then that is generalizing.

The video itself is not a troll video and it's obvious taht you don't even care about the video. But you used it to troll people so you could use your homophobic argument. You clearly made this post to create yet another one in a long line of homophobic diatribes because you have an inability to avoid that which doesn't appeal to you in DA2.  Get over yourself already.

Turning Anders down is fine, but Hawke does it a pretty jerky fashion. At least Lady Hawke does, haven't seen that scene with Man Hawke.
