Ge does?! Aaah! I'm on PS3 and my companions NEVER say anything during or after battles, just grunts. D:
That's it, I'm saving for a PS4 and buying DA:I again...
I've been doing some recording while running a naked Lavellan x Solas around Thedas, killing her off just to hear what he might yell. So far I've heard him scream "Vehendis!" and "Nooooo! Hold on! (?)". No Ma'vhenan just yet... I'm starting to wonder if it was just my brain / wishful thinking. T_T
Vivi still became Divine for me and I did not do her support mission, Leliana's mission didn't even show up! I had her all the way back to being soft, and kind...wasted effort...
You have to talk to the person you want to be Divine, about becoming Divine, and tell them you will help them. That's how the mission shows up.
I'm catching up on the thread so I apologize if someone already answered this.
I don't work with Photoshop either. I used to when IWas younger, but it became too much strain on the eyes, and honestly there is something soothing about real paint..
I agree. Real meduims like oil makes you relax and almost speaks to you while you paint.
It is straining to eyes, true, and if you cannot properly tune your tablet, which I cannot, it's becoming also annoying.
But it is art-therapy anyway, and works wonders on post-game anxiety.
It's interesting so many folks here referenced other BioWare games where the romances first hooked them. Mine was Carth Onasi in Knights of the Old Republic. I wasn't used to playing RPGs with content geared toward female players, much less the romantic kind, so it completely threw me when the flirting dialog first triggered. Plus, the characters happened to be in a cantina at the time, so I seriously thought Carth was just drunk or something.
I romanced Thane in Mass Effect too Roxy, so I feel your pain. It's part of the reason why I can't board the Team Optimism train here for Solas. Folks went all out campaigning for a Thane happy ending and it was just not to be. I don't think I can do that again. I just hope that if the worst happens (Solas becomes a true villain or dies) that there's a chance for redemption before the end and that the romance is acknowledged. Of course if Lavellan dies, it's just tragedy for everyone regardless, but so far the Dragon Age series has been good about making protagonist death an (agonizing) player decision.
Aaaw I wouldn't worry so much with DA unlike ME they listen to the fans...and they do give you chances to be with your LI especially the last 2 games so I truly think there will be a choice to be with our Solas again. 
I love Garrus, who doesn't? but I don't know Thane was awesome and for them to kill him like that is low....
I'm sure it won't happen here but I've gone through dark times with Bioware LOL
Solas MUST do the right thing!!!!
He mentioned that yes, but a lot of Thane fans were hoping we could have a "cure". Yes I saw it coming but I didn't think it would be such a bitter moment when it finally happened. It's silly but try telling that to fan girls.
Haha yeah who didn't romance Garrus... 
But about Thane it wasn't just his death that ticked alot of fans off but the lack of content too and in a DLC in ME2 they hinted at a cure for Thane...that's why there's angry Thane fans. And I get pretty tired of hearing the "You know he was going to die." BS because nobody not one Thane fan knew what his fate was and with them hinting at a cure for Thane they thought he was going to live and then they just kill him off.... what a crappy thing to do to your fans Bioware. 
Anyways I got more pages to go through, every time I come on here it's 250 post I have to go through lol! 
Welp... as an artist, I am not going to fight that conclusion.
Well...
That's...
Well.
Huh.

The sad thing is...I did say that I would support Leliana being Divine and her mission never came up....

I love real medium as well, but also love digital art. I have trouble with photoshop some so I prefer working with corel painter. Found I can make things look a bit more real media or paintery with it.
I guess it's more of a habit thing. Some artists do amazing stuff with PS and make it look like it's done with classical mediums.

I could tune my tablet , and everything.. But it just got to much on the eyes, and when I had to get glasses, thats when I knew Ihad to save my eyesight by going back to traditional. If that makes sense..

Corel is the better one to go with, but a lot hard to find a 'cheap' version of. If you get my drift.
I'm the opposite. I can't even draw on paper to save my life. I used to, but now I rely on Photoshop for all of my artworks. I wish I can make some artwork physically though :\

Really? I like the benefits of digital painting. Last semester I decided to take a drawing course figuring I could use a good fundamentals in my life. It ended up being a weird experience of hovering hand under the easel for "crtl + z", having anxiety (like increase heart rate and faster breathing) from experiencing the friction some materials are because I didn't like the drag, I have to redraw the entire arm instead of lassoing it to the right, and it's messy. I always eat when I draw so by the time I finished the class, my face is covered in charcoal or oil. Don't get me started on the price of art materials.
I'd imagine the experience would be distressing for opposite of traditional to digital. I'll stick to my smooth surface, backlighted, crtl +z tablet.
The sad thing is...I did say that I would support Leliana being Divine and her mission never came up....
Do you have the Connections noble thingy from your perks? It'll have a crown icon when you choose the option to make it happen. On every play through it has a crown icon when I say I'll help them become Divine, and then the mission is available.
Also I think your actions in the game come into play on who will be Divine, no matter who you say you want to support.
I guess it's more of a habit thing. Some artists do amazing stuff with PS and make it look like it's done with classical mediums.
I agree, but then again when you print it..it will never have the same texture or feel as real paint. And computers, cannot match exact colours really well. They are limited.
Edit: What I mean is the RGB and CMYK elements.
I'm all down for emotional and realistic, but it honestly just leads to me coming up with increasingly fluffy and implausible headcanons and AUs. Like a Star Wars one where Lavellan is a rebel pilot who happens to be Force-sensitive, and Solas is a fugitive Jedi. Please don't judge me...
Inquisition/Star Wars AU fic! omg yes!
I want this story

This. In my case it's probably because I lack the talent. When my artwork goes wrong, it really upsets me because I had pictured it in my mind, but the result didn't come off like I imagined T.T
And now that's just overkill.
Indeed.
Excuse me. I need to pay a lot more attention and respect to that 'Sera=Andruil?!' thread.

I grew up using nothing but traditional, and was not introduced to photoshop until I was 15. Until then Everything I did was by hand, which is probably why it's no problem for me to switch between the two.
When it comes to art materials, Its often cheaper to buy from art-warehouse stores, than online. What I do is buy the cheap art materials, and use them in everything except art I'm selling. And traditional will net you more cash than digital, it is also much harder to replicate traditional *DNA ftw!*
No no! You in no way upset or offended me! I feel like my opinion on the matter wouldn't do any good, really. But maybe I should elaborate.
As a survivor, I have my own set of triggers that are a direct reflection of the abuse I suffered, and while others may share in some of the same triggers as I, not everyone does. I think it's a very personal matter, and no two persons situations are alike. For instance, I was never triggered in this game by any of the characters, but I know many were...
It was DA2 that triggered me, particularly the scene where the Champion has to go find Kelder during Magistrate's Orders, and you discover that he's basically been capturing and torturing young elf girls. THAT triggered me, and I took much pleasure in letting Fenris kill that SOB. Then, after the mission, I paused the game, and took some time to work through the anxiety I got from the mission. Was that the writer's fault? No, it's my abuser's fault. Do I blame the writers for having the insensitivity to explore that form of depravity? No, because it's an emotional game, with emotional stories, and emotional characters, and that very thing taps into our human feels.
I am no way discrediting those people who felt triggered by the Iron Bull/Dorian romance, or any other romance for that matter, because, that's their own personal view, colored by their own personal experiences, and saying they are wrong, would be invalidating them, and I would not wish that for myself. Having people rally behind me when I needed it, saying they believed me, and supporting me was instrumental in climbing out of the devastation my abuser caused me.
Anyhoo, have some Solas, just in case the mood in here got sour...
<snip of sexy Solas>
Edited, like a thousand times, because apparently my fingers hate me and have a mind of their own.
I gotcha! Have a flower, my luv!
did you see what I found on EVERY TALK TABLE on the game ?
I think he was supposed to come back on the end (balcony scene) but they didn't have time to animate it
SOMEONE WRITE THIS **** NOW

That upsets every artist As for talent its 50% hard work and 50% talent/natural inclination to art.

Yep. I always invest in the special dialogue options first when it comes to perks. This was my third PT so I knew how it went or more like how it was supposed to have went, lol!
That's probably what did it. Although I did tell Cass that the Chantry was beyond redeeming, and then I told Vivienne that mages should be free...which resulted in great disapproval from both. I finished this PT about an hour ago so it's too late, but Vivi has turned out to be my Divine...every dang time...
Best post I've seen on it so far: http://shispan.tumbl...peculation-more
You just played the Anders to my brain's Kirkwall Chantry.
Thank you.
