Yes I didn't comment on anything, bit out of sorts and busy, but the fics and vids were lovely! I actually was laughing earlier because I went to the Blackwall/Inquisitor tag on AO3 and the first page was all people I knew from here or on tumblr through Blackwall chatting there. We are lucky to have such a small fandom of great writers and other talented folk. :D

Same here, yesterday I just had the time to put some quick 'likes' without reading or watching, but this morning I'm alone at home and I'm making a full-immersion  :lol:

I've been feeling a bit artsy fartsy lately and have a hankering to remake my lady inquisitor trailer but with my quizzy.  What do people use for video capture here?  Been toying with the idea of FRAPS for a while but just haven't got around to doing anything about it.

 

Been drawing and doing photo manips too (not all game related mostly family stuff)  But can I say, beards are hard to draw.

Beards are the only thing I can draw, but I doodle them...a lot...anyway! I use Loilo Game Recorder because it's free and easy and takes reasonably high quality videos.

In these days i'm exploring the vastity of possible outcomes at the Halamshiral Ball.

I did WEWH saturday: I entered the Ball Room at the end of the quest with a 96 approval, I had Cullen, Josie and Leliana speaking about all the many possibilities, which included support Briala. I had Florianne arrested by the guards. 

I decided to reload from the last save because I hadn't explored some rooms, this time I found all the halla statuettes and more loot but I lost time and entered the ball room with a 84 approval. This time I had just Cullen talking to me and my only possibilities were: attack Florianne and chase her out in the garden or let her kill Celène...

Today I decided to re-do the whole WEWH quest, I want to understand how it works and explore all possibilities.

 

Actually it's just an excuse to dance with Blackwall over and over again, I'll never get tired of it

@Bugsie - I use FRAPs (paid version). Zero complaints. Have been using it since the DAO/Mass Effect days so I'm sure more recording devices have come out since then. I couldn't tell you which product is superior now. FRAPs gets the job done for screenshots and recording videos.

@MrsRobinRainier - I think the approval needs to be at 85 in order to capture Florianne alive. If you find the naked soldier in Celene's room with Blackwall in the party, let me know what Blackwall says. I've only heard Iron Bull and Vivienne comments.

I use MSI Afterburner to record my videos and take screenshots.  I used to use Shadowplay but I had an issue with stuttering in the video output.  I like free stuff lol

 

I had Blackwall with me when I saw the naked guy in Celene's room and he doesn't say anything, unfortunately :(

 

Speaking of Wicked Eyes Wicked Hearts, I had a goal to get evicted as quickly as possible and made a video of it :P

Blackwall says nothing, I could almost swear that he's smiling but I could be wrong:

Here he is standing next to Bull when Bull says his "classic honeypot" line.

Awesome, thanks!! I had Cole, IB, and Vivienne. Got IB as above. Cole said nothing. Vivienne said, "Clever, Celene. Even I'm impressed."

Naked soldier in Celene's room? :lol:  How where when? Why didn't I find him???  :blink:

You need to be conservative on using your Halla statues (save at least 5), and you can open the locked door in the final area you explore.  There, you'll find this guy :lol: :

Know where you hear someone scream and you rush into a room to find a frightened elf after the assassin jumps out the window? That's the Royal Wing/Royal quarters area. He's in one of the adjoining rooms near the elf. You will know which room he's in when you hear, "Hello? Is anyone there? Somebody? Anybody?"

 

Save all your hallas. Unlock any door, make a note of the loot if you care what's in it, nod and say: "Cool." Reload. Move on to the next door. =p  Interestingly enough, I skipped the two doors in the starting area outside -- can't go back out there once you head inside, right? After I fought Florianne back out there, I had a couple halla statues leftover and I noticed I could go right ahead and open those doors. SCORE.

Ah actually the last time I was pissed off because I had found all the ****** hallas and I couldn't open the last locked door, the game told me I didn't have enough halla statuettes... I thought it was a bug  :rolleyes:

 

In this run I never sold the glass hallas I found around Thedas hoping they could be used to unlock doors at Halamshiral, well, strange but true they were totally useless  :P

 

I hope I'm still in time to open that door, I have to check how many statuettes I've already used...

I liked having Dorian, IB, and Blackwall in Halamshiral.  One, Dorian comments on how Blackwall dressed (he compliments him, and then suggested he need a scarf for color, and Blackwall was like 'I'll leave the color to you').  Two, Dorian and Iron Bull's comments to the guy tied to the bed. ("Classic honeypot" and "*LOL* Orlesians.")

I haven't brought Iron Bull to the Winter Palace yet.  I haven't taken him around that much, actually- I should change that!

 

I did bring Sera along for the first time on my last PT and she has her own side quest to find Red Jenny caches scattered in the Winter Palace (gaining her approval each time you find one).  She also (of course) comments on the naked guy :P

Oh he is definitely smirking. At least, he's stopped frowning which I'm gonna assume indicates moderate amusement. :D

Well, this conversation definitely inspired me to get off my butt and find out the answer to what happens if you don't ask Blackwall for a dance beforehand. He still comes out and asks for one. Good to know. (I had wondered if Josephine would come out instead.) Since I was redoing this, I scrounged up enough halla statues to revisit the naked soldier. Dorian laughed just like Rinji said. Varric didn't say anything in the cutscene, but after it ended, he said, "Well, that was ... Orlesian."

 

The "let's just go" option continues to be bugged. Blackwall exits with his arm around a Cadash that isn't in her proper place. Not that I expected it to be fixed. Was just curious if patches greased a wheel here and there.

Iron Bull is hilarious in the Winter Palace - and if Dorian is in your party at some point afterwards, they have a really funny exchange:

I honestly just hate that side of Dorian so much. I'm glad IB pushes back as he does. :D

So this elusive banter bug is catched by modders. I knew I hated Western Approach for a reason.

I did not want to use Cheat Engine, but I guess there is no choice. I feel piraty (it's a word now).  Arrr!

I opened the door with the naked soldier, he had his helmet on ...now I can't help imagine Celene singing 'you can leeeeeave your helmet oooooon' :lol:

 

D'oh, this time I entered the ball room with a 98 approval and 28/30 dirty secrets found but I didn't have Florianne arrested by the guards, she killed a lot of guards and ran out.... again! Perhaps I should return to Leliana to give her the secrets before discovering that Florianne is Coryfish's pet?  :blink:

---

Lately I've been searching for an old gif-set I saw on tumblr some time ago but couldn't find it anymore, today one of my followers was so kind to reblog it for me. I want to share it with you, although I guess you've already seen it, I love it.

I think you have to pick the 'expose Florianne's crimes to the court' option to avoid fighting her. IIRC the 'detain the duchess' option leads to the fight outside.

There is vault with two rooms (5 halla each) near the entrance. :D But I don't think it's worth it. You can get best masks if you reconcile Celine and Briala (which I did this time).

Thank you but it didn't show up, and again I only had Cullen to deal with in the end. I don't remember what I did the first time to have also Leliana and Josie giving me a lot of options right before Florianne got arrested. I did a lot of things differently actually, I remember I was less careful in accusing all the three parts when I had the chance to.

Ok tomorrow WEWH again  :rolleyes:

 

In my naivetè I though there were enough hallas to open all doors :P I've discovered it's not like that only this evening (it's evening here).
