That's odd, all four elf inky's, my Qunari and Human all got the option but I'm boring, I always make the same decisions in game, so I have no idea what caused it.

Edit: The only thing I can think of is maybe it depends on how much approval you have with Cass, all of my Inky's are good friends with her.

I'm glad you see the irony...

Actually, I think the irony's on your end.

 

 

I'm pleased that you at least took something from the experience, and you've always been civil, even when we disagreed, so I wish you the best for the next game.

There can only be one Merrill, but at least I doubt that they'll just redo all of DAI's character concepts in the next game, so I'm sure something will come along.

 

 

Mean?  Hardly.  Just grumbling about the (at the time seemingly) inevitable scrap that was coming for no actual reason except that she (is she? homegirl, assumption made) started one, rather than anything specifically directed at her.  I mean, seriously, it was like the assumption that "Sera thread = hates Dalish = let's argue".

 

Anyway, lets leave those coals to cool rather than stoke them up again.

It was specifically in relation to my previous anger with Sera's comments in Jaws of Hakkon, keep in mind.

 

 

Glad you were able to work through the Sera Experience for yourself and make your own decision on it anyway.  I think she was always going to rub you the wrong way - uh, so to speak - because, well, she hates the things you like.  And even if she matures a bit and acknowledges those problems and moves on from them, as she does in Trespasser, it still wasn't going to work in the end.  Which, y'know, is fine because that's kinda like real life, and she's not a real person anyway so it's hardly anything for any of us to cry about, is it?

 

We, the assembled ranks of the Seranade, are all sorry you can't quite appreciate her like we do, though, cos we all think she's awesome! <3  We can't all like the characters equally though, can we?

 

On that note, who was your totally best companion in the game, anyway?  Curious to know who you actually liked! ;) :P

Honestly, one of the lines in Trespasser that really put me off wasn't political; it was her apparently not being at all curious about the elven ruins we'd started exploring, and, well, any lack of curiosity is kind of alien to me.

 

As for the one my favorite character is... I might have said Solas, but that's all tangled up in issues of lies and deception and whatnot, so more solidly, it's probably Dorian. He had issues too--the biggest one is that, instead of providing a truly different Tevinter perspective, he just was someone from Tevinter who was identical to southerners--but was probably the best overall; certainly, he was the one who disapproved of my choices the least, only getting a couple of Slightly Disapproves and enabling me to do his personal quest immediately upon reaching Skyhold. I was even tempted to roll a male character to romance him, but in the end, I don't much like the end of his romance arc in Trespasser, so maybe it's for the best.

The best one in my inner circle, however, was by far Leliana, who was even better than she was in DAO, and her character arc here retroactively enhanced my DAO experience.

Really? Because I wasn't the one who bulldozed into a thread accusing someone I didn't know of holding an attitude they didn't hold, before then proceeding to complain about Sera's judgmental and intolerant attitude.

But you are the one who romanced someone who's remarkably like what you described. If you perceive Chiara's actions to be thus, then you now know even better her perspective on Sera.

In all honesty, I doubt that I could fall for someone like Sera in real life, although I have dealt with similar people and ended up largely on their good side through not talking down to them and trying to engage them on their level. That's the good thing about videogames, though. You can try something different and explore things outside of your comfort zone without affecting a real person in the process.

Understandable. I don't talk down to Sera, I just... well, I went outside my comfort zone and it didn't work out.

I guess there's more opportunities for dead ones.... until the end of the main game, at least, depending on how your choices go.

Shapeshifting Dragon-Morrigan greatly Disapproves.

A live dragon or a dead dragon?

For some reason, he didn't clarify. :)

 

I'm so glad you had a great time, and that you got to talk to Lukas. Do you know if the panel was recorded?

Er, I guess I just assumed it was so I didn't look around for a camera. :( Um, might've been a silly assumption to make....

 

More panel stuff for those interested (let's see if the spoiler tag works this time!)

Canadian content, y'all: Seems somebody once suggested they use the Quebecois accent to portray the peasants of Orlais. Quite rightly, the idea was shouted down. Laidlaw facepalmed.

 

But of course it was. People need to have a chance of understanding what's being said!* *runs away*

 

*Yes I appreciate the irony of saying that in the Sera thread. 'Twas only in jest.

So how much am I going to get spoiled if I hang out in here without playing the DLCs first? Anything interesting or mind blowing that we learn about Sera in them? Is she an ancient god too!

 

How is everyone btw! Its been awhile

Er... so far Trespasser spoilers have for the most part been tagged, but as time goes on that tends to get more lax. There's not much Sera stuff in The Descent but plenty in Trespasser.

The spoilers mostly come in tags. Mostly.

 

(Actually I think it's been fine, it's more small details being discussed in this thread anyway.)

Most do use spoilers but there are some missed spoilers, so I wouldn't go backwards in the thread. Hi, Dgyre :)

Thank you both!  I'll be careful, and just make it a priority to play the DLC!
