Sometimes we hurt those that we love.

We complain, take for granted, push and scream... Never realizing the precious gift we are endangering with our selfish actions. We want more, we want it now, we bemoan our fates loudly and wring our hands and push.

We love you, David. We love your characters. We love the options and choices and angst and tears.

We complain because we are human and want more, not because we don't appreciate what you did.

Forgive us our failings, and surely we shall forgive you yours.

I really like this game and the characters and I think it's pretty cool that David takes the time to come on these forums and respond to people.

Awesome work, good sir.



(If only you would have made Alistair the bi one instead of Zevran. One can only dream.)

Naaa, my heart belongs to Alistair, David has no worries.



I just wanted to say something nice, there's too much hate and complaining sometimes.

I'm not sure where the impression arose that I was hurt, but... thanks?
Love letters are nice, I suppose...

That's what I'm here for, long awkward silences and nervous glances towards the door.

That would just make Mary's army larger, and we don't need that.

He's always been one of my favorite game writers.

Anyway, i do have an observation. I have begun hearing Mr. Gaider's posts in my head being voiced by Steve Valentine as Alistair. It's that same sort of witty sarcasm mixed with underlying sensibility. Which wouldn't surprise me, I put a lot of myself into my PC's personality, why wouldn't he put a lot of himself into what amounts to the "main character besides you" in his game?

EDIT:  SEE!  case in point in the post above!

LOL. Well, I'm not going to toss roses and glitter, but I love this game also. The characters are very memorable and endearing.

I heard in a thread how Bioware spoke of missing thier characters like Minsc, Yet you have made much better characters such as the amazing Sten, without the HURR DURR.



Keep up the good work.

This is the ONLY game I have ever played through six times in a row (and counting). I was so deeply involved in the game on my first playthrough that my heart hurt (it's dimmed somewhat over the subsequent playthroughs, but still achy in places). And I bought the books (which are quite good so far, and I love Maric's characterization...he reminds me of...someone... :D ). The characters, the writing, the world, and the story sucked me in thoroughly. There's so much I love about this game, and so little I would change.

So, yes...awesome job. Thank you.

I picture the real life Gaider more like Sandal.



Enchantment?

I can hear it now that you said that ... " 'Tis most awkward the way fans swoop down upon me in the forum..."

While no man-crush is certainly involved, i just wanted to pop in to add in my chops.

we invariably end up creating more complaining threads than threads that complement the hard work of these fine nerdy men. salute to you ser, and madame and all the dogs, Antivians and Quanaris in your scribe's guild.
