Orlesians! Orlesians! They will be everywhere you turn in DA3! 

Is anyone else "looking" forward to hearing their accents everywhere you go? And having Orlesian "studs" hitting on you with ever breath you magic away..

Please Bioware, please! Let someone invade Orlais before we play DA3! So we have some sane, normal people to talk and listen to during the game...

Picture Isolde as a companion. Her battle cry being "TEEEEGAAAAN!"

No. I want Orlais in all its glory.

Because that includes silly hats and if some stupid mage/templar war prevents me from getting my silly hats, I will go third party and eradicate them both.

Even Isabela wouldn't tap that, I should know, I asked her to :whistle:

Just about everyone so far i've met in the DA universe can't stand the Orlesians, no idea why...

Though to be fair not all Orlesian accents are bad.

I really like Leliana's, and the Seekers.

Leliana's is the only good one to date, and Cassandra isn't Orlesian :P but love her accent.

Riordan was pretty cool. He went down like a boss too.

Luther?

No wait, he's Orlesian, he must be a Huguenot.

@OP - Regarding the (new) thread title....just what exactly do you see as being indicative of the "purity" of Thedas?

maybe if they didn't sound so elitist maybe, I mean thats the way Lielana was, kind of the down to earth type.

I highly doubt everyone in Orlais sounds French.

I asked what it was you saw as being part of the "purity" of Thedas, but you've listed things associated with Orlais (or mostly one Orlesian character). So...is Orlais the blight, or is it the purity?

We haven't met a lot of Orlesians, nor interacted greatly with the ones we have, other than Leliana. It seems that you are assuming that all Orlesians are similar to that small handful. That's quite a broad generalization there.

As long as the males are voiced by Stephane Cornicard, I'll be a happy camper. Riordan and Stroud. 'Nuff said.

It's the view point of just about every character who mentions Orlesians, even other Orlesians.

 King Calian seemed to fancy them... quite a bit even.

If it is for game lore that Orlesians are to be not liked, then more than likely my character won't be happy to see them. But if my character is one in the game, I think it would be a bit of fresh air to play as one.

I mean, wasn't Aveline's father from there? She was awesome.

Of the four things you listed, I'm love stinky cheeses and am fond of silly hats and wall flowers. So those are selling points. One can only hope the graphics warriors will slay the demon of ugly haircuts in time for DAI.

As for silly accents, Marjolaine and Isolde were a bit much but Leliana was pleasant and Riordan sounded like pure sex.

I freaking love the Orlesians and their ridiculous hats, silly cheeses, fancy armors, pretentious attitudes, and nonsensical accents! Everyone should sound like Lady de Launcet
