Another moment is whoever's lips when they kill the Archdemon. "Mouths don't do that. They don't. I'm sure. What the hell..." sort of detracting from the...climax and all.


Ungh yes that one is annoying and you can't avoid seeing it too it's not like you're not gonna kill the archdemon eventually. The rest of the face is a rather good angry snarl but the sides of the mouth just go...down, like they've got hooks pulling their mouth down...it's unatural and kinda breaks the "heroic slaying sequence"

*at the Anvil starting area*



Me: Okay...everyone look around for the implements to make some sort of rudimentary lathe...*starts to giggle* Fine, not a lathe, a catapult.

Oghren: Uh oh. I know she gave me some alcohol, but she must have kept some.

Me: Couple of boards, there's a cage, okay. Rocks...someone keep some of the Darkspawn alive and we'll truss them up.

Wynne: I'm not sure I wish to use my healing talents for that goal.

Me: Fine, I'll use mine.

Wynne: *frown*

Me: If you're not helping me, you're in my way. Go sit down. This will only take a little while.

Shale: I'll help. I prefer not to be bored.

Me: Wonderful. Move that there...and good. YES. Okay. Load up the cage with a darkspawn.

Oghren: What the hell?

Me: Shale, jump on that side. WHEEEEE! *adjusts aim and starts launching dazed darkspawn over the barricade*

Branka: What the hell!

Me: You got it. Infinite darkspawn, which you arranged.

Branka: You're crazy! *ducking darkspawn bombs*

Me: Tie the next one up not so tight.

Branka: Hey!

Me: Crazy ****!

Branka: Takes one to *thud*

Me: Hah. Got her.

Oghren: But what if she's hurt? BRANKA, can you hear me?

Me: She's fine.

Oghren: I hear screaming.

Me: Nice, isn't it?

Oghren: Hehe...well...yeah, kinda...

Me: Don't worry, we'll be through here and crazy lady will come visit.

Oghren: She sure sounds mad.

Me: That happened before we got here.

Oghren: True enough, warden.

And the banter helps.  I'm supporting Bhelen this time because...*sigh* He's the best for Orzammar's future as far as my character knows.

And as I pass by Harrowmont's herald I hear "Rumors of Gray Warden devil worship...."

Yaaaay!  Man, I hate this city.


Orzammar is a city that should've been caved in a long time ago and left forgotten. Hell, the dwarves are too busy to fight amongst themselves to look at the bigger picture.  Especially since, y'know, they have darkspawns as neighbours what with the Deep Roads and all.

Harrowmont is a coward and Bhelen is a power hungry idiot. Both are useless in equal regards.

The thing that I miss the most is that you can't plot and scheme and play out both parties against each other with you ending up as the winner. How I would LOVE to see both houses kill each other. Hell, I'd even help them off each other. Then  I'd simply take command of the troops and be done with it.

Its true.  I hate Orzammar.  I hate that place with a passion.  I hate Harrowmont.  I hate Bhelen.  I hate Branka.

I hate broken nug quests.  I hate crazy Renfield people.  I hate the Carta.  I hate religious zealots who always die no matter what I do.

Okay, I kinda like the dwarf that wants to travel to the circle and I always help her and I always help the woman who wants to reunite with her despicable family.  But that means I want to help them get out.

Something else that always bothered me a bit. I mean Howe must have scraped but bottom of the sewer when he recruited his soldiers, but still...

Scene: Fort Drakon. A Grey Warden is jailed awaiting sentence. What will happen next?

Guard Willis: Umm... Sergeant.
Guard Sergeant: Yes, what is it now.
Guard willis: Bego your pardon Sarge, but ain't those two kind of suspicious looking? *points at Oghren and Morrigan*
Guard Sergeant: Nah. They got past the Gate, so obviously they are here on some sort of errand.
Guard Willis: Yeah...um.. Sarge, but now dwarf is fiddling with a Ballista.
Guard Sergeant: Oh be quiet. Maybe he's a ballista repair man, ever think of that?
Guard Willis: Right Sarge... and I suppose, the witchy looking dame is a ballista repair man too?
Guard Sergeant: Of course, now be quiet and concentrate. Someone might try to free the Grey Warden here.
Guard Willis: Sarge... sorry to bother you again, but I think the dwarf is loading a ballista now.
Guard Sergeant: So what! Sodding fool. He must be testing that it works. Now will you shut up!
Guard Willis: Right Sarge. Sorry.

(A tremendous crash is heard)
Guard Willis: Sarge! The dwarf... he fired the ballista now.
Guard Sergeant: That's it men. Everybody stare intently at the wall where the arrow hit, and see if you can discover anything suspicious!
Guard Willis: What about the dwarf and the witch who fired the ballista?
Guard Sergeant: Shut up and check the wall I said.

I've never had the patience to try the "Captured!" quests.



I hate being in jail. Flashback to having to be in prison in "Fable" - it's therapy to kill Cauthrien every time. I might have to watch some of the breakouts on youtube, I can't bring myself to do it.

It's quiet funny.
You either break out yourself or wait for the others to free you.

I like pairing Oghren and Sten together myself.

Dog + whoever is also entertaining. Just let the dog do the talking.^_^

I usually kill her too, for the sword mostly. But Ser Cauthrien is a quite sad story if you do the breakout from jail and then talk her out of the fight before Landsmeet, so I always feel a little bad for killing her. Anyway. if you eever do the jailbreak you'll recognize the scene I mean.

I hate Cauthrien's guts.  And I did do the breakout twice...once by sneaking with my rogue and once by just killing everything with my warrior.  And I'd talked her down every time at Landsmeet, barely knowing who she was. 

I did try to do it with someone else once, but I didn't have the patience and ended up doing the "Star Wars" - *shoots the console*  "Stupid conversation anyway - Luke, we're gonna have company!"

I think I tried it with Zev and got wiped.  Then just decided to kill Cauthrien every time.  I know I should go and do these scenes for a completionist sense.  But I really hate the premise and have trouble roleplaying silly when I'm in fact betrayed and angry and wanting to kill people myself.

Nothing beats Zev+Oghren. OMG. It's something like:

Zev: "We are from the Antivan circus, the -somename- brothers!"
Guard: "You don't look much like brothers."
Zev: "How dare you! We're twins, in fact, though not identical"
Oghren: "I'm the pretty one"

I think I had Zev and Leliana and they both died rather horribly.  I guess I'm not good at stealth.  Or humor.

This time as an Arcane Warrior/Spirit Healer, that's really working for me.  I'm getting 300+ hits with a ONE HANDED sword.  But oddly enough not getting the achievement, weird.

Didn't work so well as a rogue...

Heehee.  Thank you.

I think I just get very crabby at having been captured at all and I'm not in a good mood.  It really makes zero sense in game to believe that Cauthrien's actually going to have any mercy or sense.  And I despise the mission to begin with as a huge honking trap picked out in neon.

Obviously not my favorite part of the game.

Come to think of it, the last time I tried to play KOTOR I stopped right when you had to break out of jail with one of your team members also.  I don't like being caught, clearly.  Harshes my game buzz.

*at Camp*

Me: *gives Alistair the Shield* Chooses as a response: "For you, anything."
Alistair: *immediately gives me a rose*
Me: NO! NO! NO! NO! Maker Damn You! I swear to you, me being NICE to you does not mean I want to sleep with you! STOP IT. I'm about to marry you to Anora!
Alistair: DAMN. You keep resetting. That's not fair. It was working.
Me: You do this to every female PC, don't you. Just assume anyone even vaguely being kind to you in any regard wants to get in your armor.
Alistair: I'm just doing what's best for them. What's best for you! What's best for Ferelden!
Me: NO! No rose. Anora. That's what is best for Ferelden, and for you.
Alistair: Bloody hell. Am I ever going to get a chance to be a hero again?
Me: No. You abused your chances.
Alistair: But I LIKE being a hero.
Me: ME TOO! I like being a hero!
Alistair: You're not a real hero. You rely upon resetting in order to get your way.
Me: Good point.
Alistair: No - don't!

*resets*

Me: *gives Alistair a shield*
Alistair: Thank you very much.
Me: Finally. Manipulative bastard.
Alistair: What?
Me: Nothing. Shield's shiny, isn't it?
Alistair: It's beautiful.
Me: Do NOT say beautiful.
Alistair: All right...it's manly in a warlike way.
Me: Right.
Alistair: Do you have something else for me?
Me: NO!

Sten + dog... let Sten do some talking... hilarious...



Sten: "I'm a giant with a war dog. Either I'm making a delivery, or I'm besieging your fort. Hope for the former."

Dog: (Happy bark)

Guard: "I wasn't told we were getting a Mabari."

Sten: "Must I point out the obvious? I'm a large impatient man with a war dog. Either let us in or get someone who will."

Dog: (Angry barking)

Guard: "Fine, fine, I'll get the captain. Wait over there and shut that dog up, would you?"



Waiting room

Sten: "This is pointless. We should simply go in fighting."

Dog: (Whines)

Sten: "And now I'm talking to an animal. I've been in this country too long."

Dog: (Happy bark!!)

Had issues with that, too. Though as soon as I  played with my ranger and used the Arrow of  Slaying, the instant 800+ critical shot immediately unlocked the achievement.

Also. UIn regards to the templars wearing skirts.. I always thought it was to hide their footwork and make it harder to trip them/strike at thier legs. Maybe its just so they look neat?

You really must try the scenes in fort drakon. Just make sure to hard-save right before you talk to cauthrien so you can do all the combinations with quicksaves (including having different people talking at different points). I STILL haven't figured out the ballistas though, the guard always attack me when I fire any of them =( I just assumed they were a red herring in the background, as you can get through by talking to the guard who is in the foreground of that shot.

Ohgren - "I'm...uh...just looking for the little dwarves room?"
Sister Augustine - "Help!! We're being attacked by bandits! Guards!"

300 in one hit as AW? with enchants and whatnot I never topped 100 (first playthrough, bad stat allocation, but I didn't think it was THAT miserable).

Edit:  also, purple hides blood stains pretty well I'd imagnie.

300 in one hit? I think that may be something else..a glitch or something O.o maybe a 30 someone else's 10 behind it? Only time I've seen 300 has been from spells going of. Walking bomb for example does physical damage when it explodes. O.o That or you've got some uber weapon o.o

I thought of another reason for teh purple skirt. People just assume there is armor under it.. so its saves on materials.. and people dont bother attacking the legs so the protection isn't missed.. and if they do.. well, its ONE way to enforce the chantry's vows..
Posted Image
though from the looks of it the skirt doesn't do  as much for dwarves.

Alistair: So uh. I noticed Leli convinced you to wear the matching outfit... *cough*:whistle:
Me: Say another word and they'll pick up PIECES of you all the way  to Denerim!
Alistair: What ? :crying:I was  just saying tis a very beutiful dress.. with plates. You could cook on it ...or in it..:wub:
Me: *throttle* >.<
Oghren: *pulling PC off Alistair* Hey now, at least waitn till we get back to camp for that... or lemme get some more ale.
Alistair: *coughing* But its such a pretty dress
Me: My boots are plate,   Your codpiece didn't help last time,  that skirt won't help.
Alistair: And here I was about to  say how good youlooked without the skir--
Me: *kicks full force at Alistair's codpiece... only to hit something far... squishier.*
Alistair: @.@ *  We'll just say his eyes bug out.. and makes a sound several octaves higher than what a grown man his age should be able to produce*:crying:
Me: Serves you right for goign commando. :devil:

Those skirts are too tight.  It's hard enough to walk in those, much less maneuver.

He'd need a bell skirt and possibly a crinoline, but they have their own sets of problems.

*after Landsmeet, at Camp*



Me: Loghain, you have an IRON SWORD? Are you kidding me?

Loghain: I packed in a hurry.

Me: You're useless. Well, one use.

Loghain: I know, I'm too valuable. You need a strategist to -

Me: You can't strategize your way out of a rat maze. I'm feeding you to the archdemon.

Loghain: Oh. Well, I imagine you'll be eaten first.

Me: Imagine again. Do me a favor and move, that's Alistair's spot.

Loghain: And where am I to go?

Me: Somewhere that the fire doesn't keep you warm. Somewhere I can't see you.

Loghain: So there's assigned seating? Is it boy-girl-boy-girl?

Me: No, it's really homicidal maniac, angry person, homicidal maniac, angry person.

Loghain: Good to know. Perhaps I'll get something to eat.

Me: I wouldn't suggest it. Several people in this camp have a penchant for creative apothecary, traps or just pissing in things. And you recall that homicidal/angry part? We wouldn't want you facing the archdemon spitting up blood. Well, maybe I wouldn't mind. You'd best stay hungry. Savor it.

Loghain: I'll...just...be in my tent.
