Wait wait, I don't get that pic, it's the same event? Because a bird won't make Cullen bleed that much until he couldn't walk anymore... It can make him bleed but not wounded severely like in the second pic, right?

 

Because in second pic Josie & Leliana's helping him walk, he must be badly injured there & not only by bird pecks.

 

The two are probably unrelated - I think the bird in the first picture (throwing hearts at Cullen) is supposed to be the raven Leliana gifts to him when she learns Cullen keeps "borrowing" it behind her back. It's in one of those rare ambient conversations you only hear if you can trigger the banter from the runners standing near each advisor.

I've seen folks ask him to keep it up for posterity. Even if he deletes it, anything you reblogged will still live on. 

 

DUH!! *facepalm* Thank you for this! I need to see which ones I need to reblog, now!

Forgive me for being dense... what's a "Carry On" film...? 

 

The words "Carry on my waaaayward sooon!" may or may not have started wailing majestically in my head.

On the grand scale though, I like where the series is headed right now. I love the characters that I have made, flaws and all.

 

On a grand scale I like it, too. In truth I feel it needed 1-2 more years of development. It needed some soul and some solid storytelling.

I wonder though, if the writers in Bioware enjoy their work as much as novel/independent book writers.

 

Game writers must consider many more things & limitations than independent writers who get more freedom on their choice of story & character IMO.

 

From what I understand, a lot of RPG game writers have their origins in stuff like DnD, not traditional storytelling.

I'm on my fourth playthrough and still loving it!  Warts and all. One of the best game franchises ever IMO.

....Cause I'm afraid of him? 

Really? Huh, I've had several conversations with him over Tumblr. He's a really nice guy!

Dammit, now it happened to me too...

Ohh I don't watch this show; what's the connection?

Lol, that's basically their theme song.

He has said some preeetty nasty things to fans on Tumblr... I've put him in that category of authors "Great writer, not so great personality" At least he's in good company.

Oh I see; is that the infamous Wincest? lol

It's not the same event, but if you imagined that Shale from Origins was there and was trying to attack the bird perched on his shoulder, his unexplained bruises and wounds in the second picture suddenly make a lot more sense. Someone needs to ask the artist to draw that?

I hate to open a can of worms, but he didn't basically call people who wanted to romance dwarves and qunari fetishists?  Granted, this is all I'm hearing second-hand as I live in the stone age and don't bother with tumblr or twitter.

Am I the only one who doesn't despise the shards?  i feel like they are there to get you to explore other places.  Many times, hunting for a shard, I have found campsites with interesting or funny codexes, for example. Or little mini quests.  Not, that I will do all the shard in EVERY game, but i just assume that if a shard is there, there is probably some interesting tidbit there to explore.  And there usually is...

That was debunked on his Tumblr.

Ok, good to know then.

Nah, he seems nice, just easily frustrated by the occasional toxic elements that permeate all fandoms. I don't really blame him, it's got to be tough writing your arse off for this game and the fandom and then having some trolls tell you that you suck for ____ reason?

Nope you are not alone. Had fun exploring and finding them all and got some great stat boosts and equipment. And it was a way to explore but sadly many people don't seem to care how pretty this game is

Wanted to post a little sneak peek of what i am working on.  Oh, the angst....

Spoiler

Her eyes are cold. “You made a man tranquil for that.”

 

The air the room is charged, like standing in the middle of field under a heavy sky, knees locked, eyes watching helplessly as grey clouds blot out the blue. The accusation in her voice is lightening, cutting through him. Cullen cannot hide from it. “I did nothing. It was Knight Commander Meredith’s decision. She wielded the brand for far lesser offenses.”

 

She crosses her arms. The charge in the air intensifies. He feels the hairs on his arms stand up.

 

Her voice echoes his. “You did nothing.”

 

The first clap of thunder. Birds rising in unison, daring escape. “I regret what happened to Maddox, but at the time…the...official charge was corrupting the moral integrity of a templar.”

 

Her eyes darken. The storm is cresting, the grass bowing beneath the weight of the wind.

 

“Corrupting the moral integrity of a templar? Is that what you said?”

 

He swallows, trying to keep his voice level. “Yes.”

 

She stares at him. The wind is strong. It threatens to lift him from his feet. He cannot outrun it.

I don't despise them.  I just don't don't bother with them.  I'm tempted to use the feature in Cheat Engine that will spawn all the shards, though, just so I can skip straight to the reward in that Oasis place.  Yay, instant gratification

Granted, I called him "sir", and was really, really polite.

Sorry, I just remember reading people ranting about it on BSN last year so I thought that was what Artemis was referring to *shrugs*
