Which reminds me... did you finish your Evil!Lavellan game? I'm taking notes...

 

No, I haven't! I should fire her up. I'm at the point where she's dumped Blackwall and Cullen and is dating Solas, so now I just have to make the worst disaster of the ball (wish you could make it worse but I'll try as best as I can to be a disaster), accidentally kill all the elves at the Well of Sorrows, probably drink from it, and then get dumped by Solas. Unfortunately I hear you can't punch him again there, but you can be mean as heck, so good. Wish there were better ways to be evil, tbh, but so far the only chances I've gotten to show her trainwreck self are in romances and judgments and by making rapidly hypocritical decisions and loud declarations of her own awesomeness.

What about dumping Bull and Sera?  I have a Hawke who killed Carver, sold Fenris to slavery and gave Isabela to qunari. He also slept with everybody but stayed with Anders in the end. And he was walking in the footsteps of Evil!Surana who made all despicable things in DAO. So what Inquisitor could continue their legacy? I thought about getting all disapproval scenes but I have no idea if you can manage to anger everybody in one playthrough. It's so hard to be evil...

On the subject of Blackwall and being pinned against wooden things and balustrades by him, this is something that I entirely approve of! *nod nod*

Sorry for the OT but... 

 

I followed the link to the bi-blackwall mod because I was curious to see how many downloads there were, then I searched for the Cassandra bi-mod on nexus and found nothing. So I searched on tumblr and read that the author of the mod received DEATH THREATS and had to delete her account, not just the mod 

 

But... I mean... menacing real people because of a mod that changes the sexuality of a fictional character? Are fictional characters more important than real people? This is insane 

 

I find the bisex Dorian mod, artistically speaking, rubbish, because his personal quest becomes total nonsense, and Blackwall calling a malequisitor my lady is LOL, but if there are people who are happy to play a nonsense run to live their romantic dream why not? I will never download such mods but their existence doesn't affect my life in any way. Is it so difficult to understand that one's freedom stops where another one's begins?

[veeia]

Yeah I don't think it's possible to get everyone's disapproval scene. Like it's easy to get everyone's approval scene, because you can make back any losses, but there very few ways you can "farm" for disapproval, and anytime you get someone to Greatly Disapprove, you've gotten someone else to Greatly Approve, and it's a difficult balance to strike.

 

What you could probably easily do is get Blackwall, Cole, and Dorian to leave? I think they're the only ones who will leave. And kick out Sera.  I'm not sure. TBH, this character was mostly conceived around "punch then romance solas" not "be the most evil" so I mostly investigated 1) how to ****** off Solas 2) how to get approval back from Solas 3) if I needed to keep his approval up to keep the relationship going. Then I realized I could dump other people as I went. Then I realized a character with a string of bad relationships and tendency towards violence when frustrated would probably not be the best leader, so how could I make her have terrible decisions? Which all came after Skyhold, and honestly I think in order to game everyone's disapproval, you'd have to micromanage from the beginning, and I only did it with Solas. 

 

Honestly the decisions in the game that squick me out the most are either not available to my character (like making people tranquil, because she's a rogue) or aren't really framed as bad decisions (like reuniting celene and briala) so it's not really capable of supporting an "evil" run like DA:O or DA2 does imo, just more of a "selfish and socially inept hypocrite ruthless trainwreck".

It's incredibly gross and cruel that people did that and people's reactions to that mod (particularly the way they talk about LGBT folk when they do it) was one of the last straws for me in terms of this forum, lmao, I have cut down waaaay on my time here. It's so telling to me that the bisexual Cassandra mod is the one that someone got harassed off the Internet for, not bi Dorian or whitewashed Isabela or whatever. I won't say more, lmfao, but yeah. Nods I feel ya.

Anway, re Blackwall bi mod. Won't be too long until we can change talktables and someone can edit in "My Lord" or whatever there. Or you could name your male character Milady or something, lmfao.

and it's also applicable to some Zaeed/Shepard saucy fanfic I found the other day *cackle*

For all the shipping I do, this one I never even thought of. I must now go and contemplate this.

@MrsHairyMcLummox -- There's a thread on the spoiler forum about this. Check out post #15 on the first page. There's a link to the original modder sharing why she ended up taking it down. http://forum.bioware...le-romance-mod/

 

All I can say is that considering the drama that's been swirling around (Cullen's VA twitter fiasco, the romance-gate removals, etc), the Blackwall thread is a wonderful calm in the eye of the storm.

 

Found a nice black and white contemplation piece of Blackwall's lie here: http://dunwall.tumblr.com/post/112244854221/i-didnt-take-blackwalls-life-i-traded-his-death

If anyone wants to download the bi Cassandra mod, they can download it here: http://daitools.free...-mods-t533.html

 

And if someone here is interested in trying out the mod, I even made a closed group to discuss our experiences with it just to avoid the drama.  Send a PM to me for an invite: http://forum.bioware...xual-cassandra/

[sandman2190]

So I saw the post from the original modder concerning the bi-Cass mod. Honestly, I'm at a loss of words....so if someone makes something you don't like, the mature thing to do is send death threats and compare said mod creator to a rapist....such impeccable class.

 

Dear lord. Though now I am curious....what fiasco was there with cullen's VA on twitter?

[Gilsa]

I'll send ya a PM. People want and have asked for the discussion to stay off the forums.

[sandman2190]

Again, thank you Gilsa. Though allow me to change the subject, here's a webcomic:

Oh HEY. The thread talked about this a while ago, that if you had the Lone Warden quest active in your log, you could ask a farmer about him and get more info, but once you got him, the conversation would disappear. I always meant to load up an older save and check it out, but never got around to it. Finally found a video that covered exactly this so linking for others just as lazy as I am. =p

I recorded the conversation myself and meant to upload it, but I should have guessed that either FluffyNinjaLlama or DanaDuchy did it first

Hmm favorite moment is definitely the balchony scene but closely followed by the first flirts and the snuggle on the balcony at the end of WEWH. And anytime he laughs. I love the repeat kiss too. Basically the romance is lovely, but I agree it is so lopsided. I have my fingers crossed some DLC interactions might help.

So I'm running the banter cheat and it must stimulate random comments too because on the Storm Coast Blackwall made like 6 comments about the ocean in 15 minutes.

[WobbleLikeAJelly]

My favorite Blackwall moment... I don't think I have one. Everything at Halamshiral was nice. The "I am not," when you comment on his brooding during the tavern scene. Those were already mentioned.

This playthrough, I had JUST recruited him and put him in my party immediately, and a couple minutes later Sera asks him if all wardens have beards.
"I stole all the beards."
Hah! For whatever reason, I loved that. Most of his banter with Sera are favorite moments for me.

[MrsHairyMcLummox]

@Gilsa: may I have a pm about the Cullen VO fiasco on twitter too? I'm not good at following everything, my mind is almost totally absorbed by Blackwall

I don't know if anyone saw this from Ranah-evae on tumbler (I think Rannah here on BSN)

 

But, Maker preserve my heart, look at his eyes.  LOOOOOOOK

Ooh, he looks younger, like when he was still a captain. I like it. Not that he doesn't look very handsome now, too.

Oh you should. You won't regret it

 

And this is the saucy fanfic I mentioned, if any Zaeed fans haven't seen it already. NSFW, naturally.
