Really? Do you know how rare this is? I think I've had one my entire life. Milan92's point stands.
You need to overexcite your nervous systems, if you do it properly you get a lucid dream when you go to sleep. You can achieve that via excessive sports or or playing fast twitch computer games for several hours right before sleep.
Also fever.

I guess I'm just naturally laid back then.

Kajsa: But now we get to the romances! I know you've said they'll be more realistic, how will be able to notice that?Mike: We've moved away from the staleness in the earlier romances. If you say something your companions will still react to it. If you say something mean to an elf the character Solas won't like it, but it won't say ''-10'' any more. There are numbers that get taken off like earlier. It made the experience feel a bit cheap. Something that was huge for me was that many of the characters have their own motivations, they have different goals och things they want to get to. Cassandra, as an example, searches for information on the ''the seekers''. Should you choose to help her she'll like you more. It helps you understand the characters, not just by talking with them, but instead by seeing everything that interests them. It feels, to me, like a very natural way to get to know someone.----I wonder what that means exactly. Is she looking for information about Seeker history or is she looking for information on current Seeker activities? She's going to be a rebel Seeker in DA:I, she might also be looking for others like herself?I kind of hope it's about their history.
Inquisitior: "Drop everything you're doing! We are gonna focus on the seekers!"
Cassandra: ![]()
Seeking the Seekers
Sounds like romances will be advanced through questing rather than approval, though I may be jumping ahead of myself there.

I think that's the idea they had in mind, yeah.

Cassandra have always been seeking the truth and justice. Looking for historical stuff makes more sense to me, even if that include some of the current Seekers. She's probably trying to understand how the Order failed and it might tie in with the original Inquisition. Also, we know this place is in the game has well.
On top of that, there might also be more about the term "seeker" in the setting. Ashkaari in qunla means "one who seeks".
Maybe Cassandra will have a moment of vulnerability when she stands in those halls. Wondering if she failed the divine because she couldn't save her and such.

"maker noooooo"
I suspect seeing Cassandra vulnerable and crying would make me start to cry. Stupid feeling that I pretend I don't have.

She doesn't need to cry ![]()
But just some vulnerable moments would be nice.
Crap, there's no longer going to be anymore of those Morrigan Disapproves pop-ups anymore? Man, that's going to make reloading very tricky!
*say something in the conversation wheel*
Cassandra disapproves
*reload save from 2 minutes ago*
>_>
It's mean that there won't be any more meta-gaming companion's approval so everyone likes you even if you do things they are totally against 75% of the time.
Not seeing approval means removing from sight a lot of characterisation and feedback, unless they've vastly increased dialogue and/or body language reactions to compensate.
I will definitely be seeking the seekers then ![]()

Yeah, there would need to be some feedback.
In the Crestwood demo, it was obvious Varric was unhappy with your decision to leave the village to it's fate. I believe Cassandra and Vivienne said something about it being necessary. I would expect my relationship to take a hit with Varric but not Cassandra/Vivienne. I'm not sure if I can say you get positive approval with Cassandra/Vivienne in that case...just might be no change.

Even then (dis)approval is dictated by action. I could say "eff those pleabs" they aren't worth my time, but if I turn around and save them anyway Varric will approve. I prefer this to Mage Hawke telling Cullen he supports the Templars then turning around and releasing a cabal of blood mages to get on both Merrill's and Fenris' good side.
Maybe they are still tweaking the approval stuff.
in that gamescom demo, I saw that when you freed the soldiers it stood that cole approves 5+ or something, did they suddenly remove that or does this approval only counts for positive things you do now.
Oh dear, those laser eyes are charging! Run, Inquisitor, run!
I think I have too much expectation for Cassandra laser-eyeing people ( stabbing them or slamming her shield in their face) for annoying her now. I'm going to be sad that it actually does not happen in the game.

Maybe she slaps her subordinates from time to time.
Casssandra: "Varric! *slaps his head* can you find me the file about the inquisitor?"
Varric: "Does one ring rule them all?"
Inquisitor: "One ring?"
Cassandra: "Don't engage him on that. During our travel to the temple he came up with some fantasy world."
Inquisitor: "I'm really not sure if my background is a great idea to show to everyone...."
Cassandra: "Don't worry, it will be clean and cle- *gasp*"
Inquisitor: "Yeah...about that."
*file not clean and clear*
Cassandra: "You! *slaps Varric again* How long till this will become public knowledge!?"
Varric: "Ow! And that depends."
Cassandra: "On what! *slaps him again*"
Varric: "How much louder you're gonna yell! And will you stop hitting me like that!'
