No I just kept running from a pack of demons who seemed bound and determined to take out the poor innocent archer! :lol:

I hate how we have to share healing options, there were never any left! I did a lot of running away >.>

Lol, I know that feeling all too well! The archer is almost always the last one standing and...it usually doesn't end well.

 

Yep, it is all about timing, teamwork, and cunning.

What makes it more fun is being the last one standing during a dragon fight, All you can do at this point is say, "Well, sh!t!"

My most vivid memory from this night was you two standing cluelessly over my lifeless body while Asperath wondered aloud, "There's no rez in this game...?" On the other hand, cruising through the whole level and spying on you guys from the Fade was preeeetty awesome xD

 

LOL It was the first time I tried MP & really didn't think you wouldn't be able to rez or come back after the fight

 

The mic use was erratic. I wasn't always sure they were hearing me. It was pretty funny, considering the malfunctions and the wipes (thank goodness none of us were taking it seriously, though.)

 

The lack of rezzing was a bit of a surprise. I wonder if the dungeons keep leveling up with us (if they do, we'll never survive one, lol.)

 

Was that you as well? I thought it was only Arty on the mic. What I heard was a lot of broken up laughter & some talking I couldn't hear clearly.

I gather I was heard okay considering Arty could hear my ponderings about rezzing lol

 

lol You actually can revive teammates; I revived Asp twice. You guys just didn't know how so you stood around my body and WATCHED ME DIE.

:lol:

 

I got that at the end of the run when I first noticed you revive me. I tried to revive you but as keeper I didn't last long :lol:

 

Hopefully next time we can get someone else to join us :)

Hold up. I missed something here.

 

What is this for? And what dialogue options?

 

Melissa is right, I tried to show the difference of the texture mod because yesterday evening you said you see no difference. But I failed to upload/display the pictures yesterday and tried it today again.

 

The dialogue is from the first war table talk after Josephine tells you that the church has denounced the inquisition and when you select the "So I am the problem" topic.

I like how it's a subtle difference. But up close you can really see it. I will post up some screenshots after I finish Wicked Hearts. I was hoping to finish tonight but I got sidetracked working on my 5000 page piece.

So I just went to the Dragon Age wiki and it seems that there is an Alistair tarot card and codex entry that is either bugged or cut. However, there only seems to be versions for Alistair ruling alone, being married to Anora, or being a Grey Warden. I may be reading too much into this, but I am really starting to feel like Bioware is trying to slowly cut away the relationship between Alistair and The Warden, if he is king. I am extremely concerned by the fact that there is not a small snippet for those who were Alistair's mistress or his queen. Again, I may be reading too much into this...but...I'm not liking what I'm feeling.

I'm sure I read something about people feeling that Alistair wasn't the same since his Queen had disappeared (either distracted or concerned)... but maybe my memory is really bad and I imagined it

Ok, so I am doing another Cullen romance( on my brand spanking new super duper high settings capable pc, YAY!), this time with an Amell HOF ws. We just had some desk fun and afterwards I asked him about Amell.....I kinda wish I hadn't now lol because either it's bad writing/wording or my Inquisitor just rekindled his feelings for Amell. His words...'I may have had some youthful infatuation with her..(blah blah)...Feelings I had forsaken UNTIL recently.  Kinda fizzled the flames of our recent passion, sigh*  :angry:

 

ok I listened again and heard it a different way...boy he is sooo lucky lol

That's actually one of my favorite Cullen scenes and I like it for two reasons:

 

a) The feelings he once had for a female mage Warden matter to him. He doesn't dismiss them. They are not a skeleton in the closet that he wants to hide or feels ashamed of. That was very nice to see for me as a player. But more importantly, I believe that our past forms us so I thought that it was nice for the character as well. Which brings me to my second point.

b ) The scene also shows how much he has changed. Because  if you ask a bit further he says something like: 

Spoiler
 

He has changed his world view and looks at things differently now. The relationship with the Inquisitor certainly helped him there. 

 

But I remember that we discussed the possibility of Cullen mentioning the Warden before DAI was released here in the thread. I was under the impression that people were divided into two camps. One half wanted that he speaks of her, the other half did not. I thought about this the other day and wondered how people are feeling about it now.

 

See I love that....I headcanon she would give him a soft kiss on the cheek, so as not to wake him but he wakes anyway and pulls her into an even longer kiss then she leaves an hour or two later ;) But then he has his nightmare and plans out the window lol.

 

Speaking of his nightmares, does anyone think he may stop having them or have them less now he has something good to focus on. I like to imagine him waking up one morning after a peaceful no nightmare sleep to look down and see the Inq snuggled into his chest and give a little smile. 

No, I don't think they will ever go away but I believe that there will be less nightmares over the time.

 

Well for anyone wondering... MP is a frakking disaster lol As I sit here staring at a black loading screen for the third time in a row. We did get one good round in :P

 

LOL. How is team Suckquisition coming?

After reading your reply, I headed on over to take a look for myself. I was wondering why Alistair did not have a card in game-I assume it is bugged?

 

IF I recall, my Rogue Warden married Alistair and it was mentioned in her card. However with my Mage Warden there is no mention of her being with Alistair.

 

This is weird. I doubt the developers would move in the direction as these two never were together. I think the fans would be, well, rather peeved. But you never know, they have done odd moves before-such as with Lilly.

I hear you. My mage Warden became his mistress, too. A part of me was a bit disappointed that king Alistair doesn't mention her but the bigger part was actually relieved. After all, Alistair barely knows the Inquisitor and I appreciate his discretion. As for the tarot cards, does BioWare have an image of a canon Warden that they have used in the past (like Shepard or Hawke)? I believe they only used pictures of defined characters for the tarot cards, so I wouldn't read too much into this.

Hair...hair is good, hair is pure, hair is something Bioware needs to do on their own; but luckily we have amazing people like you! Hopefully we will be able to have circlets as mods at some point because those are so pretty!

 

I show Melissa's Cullen face shot without his hair to my Mom, several of it. She started to say what a great looking guy & where did I met him & who's that. She then proceed to give me a tiny lecture on being careful storing pics of other men like that in my computer while my BF & I often shares each other's computer...

 

Then I show her the shot with hair & she was like "oh cr*p, that was not a real guy ain't it?"

 

That was hilarious :lol:

Well, personally I guess that he'll have as much nightmares as he got before. Maybe even more, now that he gets much more to lose. But then it depends, sometimes it might abate with time but I'm not sure it'll go away just because he's in a relationship.

 

IMO The good thing is that now he knows someone will be there curled beside him in the morning when he woke up from a bad one.

No, not because he is in a relationship (although that might help) but because time heals wounds ;).

Maybe it's just cut. Well I hope at least. Because if they are creating a plot where they get separated and can't never be together I just can't bear it.

I remember that it came up  in the game. But i really can't remember where.

Sephirona, that is amazing!

 

Oh and does anyone have a link to the comic where Cullen is running back to his tower after the Wicked Grace game and Vivienne is watching him? Lol, I feel so dirty asking but someone wanted to see it.

I don't know if you found it yet, but in case you haven't:

How far are you with the Solas romance? It seems you and Ti are in similar points.

Well, given that there is a span of about 40-100 hours between romance point 2 & 3, yes, I think most players in the Universe who are mid Solasmance are at the same point. :P LOL And, no, no, I'm not bitter that there's so little interaction. Or that I'm racing to be broken up with. :D
 

I got wee drabble written up.  Will post as a link to the AO3 site where it will be hosted.  Also, if space is an issue, I am happy to send the link beforehand if you wanna post multiple links in one post or something like that!

Naw, if you're around, post it up yourself. We'll have plenty of space. If folks miss the page, then they post later and I paste it into my placeholder slots. easy peasy. 
 

@r2 I have something for the page 5k but I will be home on the 26th I dont hav my pc with me right now so unless u guys are holding off till then (I doubt it) I will have to take a place holder. Ps I might have something extra for u guys to test out...... Hint.... Something that goes on ur head

SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!!! I'll have a spot for you lady. Can't wait to see!

LOL You might be glad you missed the discussion. I think overall folks were pleased the mention, because it was included, short, and respectful. What was weird is that he can ask a Warden-romancing Leliana about the Warden, which raised some questions about whether or not he's still hung up on the Warden. But the devs (at least) confirmed that he only does that if he's not romancing the Inquisitor.

So, this is off topic but I'm stuck with my fanfic. Does anyone has a brilliant idea how the taint could be cured? Are there some theories on tumblr maybe? I searched for it but couldn't find anything useful.

Only thing I can think of is what happened to Fiona in the Calling. You might also find this link idea prompting, where DG discusses curing the taint.

This idea is not brilliant but this is my 2 cents: to cure the taint, you need to go inside the Black City itself in the fade. Finding & taking something from there ( a metallic kind, obsidian?) to the "real world" can cure the taint. THis is an idea I got when reading the Calling, Fiona got her taint cured due to that black obsidian brooch or something like that right? I headcannon that's actually something taken from the black city itself. If a tainted person touch it with bare skin it can remove the taint. But there might be consequences.

 

Also, if you go to the Black City in the Fade that gives chances to actually "rescue" either Hawke or Stroud or Loghain or Alistair...

 

 

Sorry for rambling, I need coffee...

 

EDIT: ninja'd by R2s about Fiona :)

 

 

EDIT 2: The Red Lyrium contains the Blight. It's a kind of sickness from what Bianca told us IIRC. So something connected to the Red Lyrium? Maybe something connected to the dwarves & the Primaveral Thaig. A research by Bianca probably? Or actually the Thaig is an ancient elven thing that got buried & so this gives connection to the elves. Whichever that suits you.

 

EDIT 3: If you're using any of these idea I'd love to read that! It'll be a helluva of an adventure story!

About Fiona: Haven't read the Calling but wasn't some weird magic going on there? It wasn't just her amulett that cured her but a series of events that no one was able to recreate later on.

 

Yes, I agree about the lyrium. I believe that the Red Lyrium might be important. One of my theories was that it was originally blue lyrium, then got infected and turned red.

 

I like the idea that something ancient elven (or dwarven, lol) is buried somewhere :).

Actually, when is your fic going to take place? Before DA:I, after DA:I, during DA:I? It's the Warden's story right?

 

EDIT: sorry, want to move to the Fanfic group to discuss? I'd love to know more about this fic of yours :)

Ouch, hey, I tried to see if there was a way to do it. Nothing I've ever seen before. I wondered a couple of times at what had happened. We really need the mics to work better for us, lol.

No I just kept running from a pack of demons who seemed bound and determined to take out the poor innocent archer! :lol:

I hate how we have to share healing options, there were never any left! I did a lot of running away >.>

Wait, those healing potions were shared? Sheesh, I'm sorry, I had no idea, I thought I was just using my own.

 

*snip*

Was that you as well? I thought it was only Arty on the mic. What I heard was a lot of broken up laughter & some talking I couldn't hear clearly.

I gather I was heard okay considering Arty could hear my ponderings about rezzing lol

*snip*


Hopefully next time we can get someone else to join us :)

I tried talking several times. A couple of times ya'll seemed to hear me, but a couple of other times no one seemed to hear me. The laughter was probably Artie, I have mine set up for push-to-talk so you shouldn't have heard me laughing.

 

Definitely a fourth person would be good! We might make it two or three fights further :P

I suspect we're fairly close. I've finished Abyss and pretty much cleared Crestwood and the Exalted Plains. I'm trying to decide if I want to try WE/WH tonight or not (not sure how long it takes, but I know it's complicated.) Then I'll get my dance, at least.
