I find the things you can't fight much scarier than beasts than can die when you shoot them.

Mind, there are plenty of games with enemies that you can fight that are scary as hell. *glances at broodmother*

And there are certain Youtube videos of Amnesia players twisting the AI so that the monsters become partners in comedy. 

This is why I hated the hunter regenerator immortal guy so much in deadspace, especially when you had to move these walls out of the way with telekinesis while he was right behind you.... God that sucked. Was so satisfying finally killing it near the end.

Re Scary Games - Amenisa was bad but Alien was terrible.  I was constantly in a state of "oh crap oh crap oh crap".  I pretty much would find a locker and hide in it for like 20 min.  I couldn't finish the game.

The only games I had at five?

 

 

 

LOL, I didn't play any video games at age five. I got my first Game Boy (the gray brick) when I was 9, I think. (I played the **** out of Kirby.) Got a Super Nintendo at 12. I spent my early childhood with jigsaw puzzles and running around fields, climbing trees.

I'm glad I didnt get into video games that early. It was all downhill from that moment...

One of my earliest memories is walking in on a LAN session between my dad, my brother, and some of their friends. I was about three, I think, when I was taught to play Starcraft and Age of Empires by my dad. I watched my brother play Everquest on his computer when he was looking after me and cheered him on in arena fights. I can't remember not being an avid gamer and complete nerd.   We had terrible Internet, even for dial-up, so when my dad realized that my birthday present of Star Wars: Galaxies wasn't going to work out, he went back to the store in a panic and came back with Knights of the Old Republic.   I will always be grateful to our horribad Internet for that.

So, to sum it up: dislike Fenris, regretted romancing Solas, also don't like Zevran (yeah, the elves are not working out for me even though they used to be my favorite race *sigh*). Don't understand the glitterotica thing either, don't care about smut.

Haven't received an anthrax envelope yet. So I think you'll be fine. ^^

I played a mage and his mage-bashing was what I couldn't stand. Probably why I couldn't romance him. Not that Anders was any better, but that's another story altogether. Yeah, I understand the reasons why he's like that and why he feels that way about mages but like you, my patience was starting to wear out. >_<  In short, I feel the same way as you do about him.

 

As for elves, I love playing them, but it was only in DAI that I chose an elf as my canon romance (as heart-breaking as the Solas romance is, I do really like it). I like Zevran as a character but I prefer Alistair for my Mahariel even though she did sleep with Zevran at one point... (Hey, I wanted that achievement! xD)

 

And thanks for sharing that with me. I haven't received any death threats so far so that's a good sign. xD

I play as a mage, romanced him (on the friend path) as a mage and sided with the mages. Fenris is fine about it as long as you keep off the topic of mage freedom.

Since I avoid taking Merrill or Anders anywhere with me (Hawke was better athealing and fighting than either of them so I didn't need them.  Plus, can't stand Anders' hypocrisy or Merrill's really forced 'look at me, I'm so kooky!' vibe) then Fenris is actually pretty fun, cracks jokes and gets on well with everyone in the party.

From the description:

 

"...a prompt someone posted on Tumblr several weeks back that introduced the idea that Solas would sleep in the ruins of Skyhold, long after Lavellan died, just to dream of her."

 

Oh my, that... that sounds absolutely horrible.

It reminds me that I still don't have a satisfactory headcanon to deal with the fact that Lavellan is mortal.

 

This is what I've been thinking about lately too. I had a similar situation with Mass Effect and pairing my Shepard with Liara, but those conversations more or less added up to enjoying the now such that you're not sure you'll have tomorrow.

 

At least Shepard knew Liara would naturally outlive her by multiple lifetimes. Having this again, but in a very different situation. I haven't figured it out either.

Ah, mage freedom. I wonder how Fenris would feel, knowing that I placed Leliana as the Divine and that she had the Circles disbanded with mages of the South "enjoying unprecedented acceptance throughout Thedas."? He he he!

 

Just goes to show how horrible most DA2 companions are... For me at least.

So much pain.

I think it's so much worse for Solas, though.  Liara grew up in a culture that accepted this situation and even embraced it to some extent.  And she won't be alone after Shepard's gone; she'll make new friends, form new connections, maybe even find love again.  At the very least, the krogan buddies she's made from ME have roughly the same lifespan as hers.

 

Solas...yeah not so much.  Says something when "dying alone" is his greatest fear.

They're SUCH a hot mess.  But they're *my* hot mess and I love them all  That said, I can definitely see why they drive people nuts.  My last playthrough of DA2 I wound up benching Anders, Seb, and Fenris for a good part of Act 3.  I love my boys but they would NOT SHUT UP about how much they hate everything and each other.

Winner for most groan inducing line in cinema - THAT ONE.  I think i threw my whole bucket of popcorn at the screen when she said that. 

 

ON TOPIC: Umm....one time, in the fade, Solas saw some stuff.  I dunno....

Hook him up with Goat-Man.  They can bond over their mutual love of pulverizing Vints.

Yeah, that's why this is on a different level, and much harder to figure out how to headcanon. It wasn't addressed.  Especially given the nature of Solas' character and what people think he did and why. He got close to someone for the first time in forever and even lost his nerve to tell her the truth about himself in spite of that fear of dying alone. And all of his time spent alone and keeping people at a distance, his weariness from trying to communicate with others and sometimes help....he could have this peace for a little while, but even if he stayed with her, she's mortal. Could he have maybe considered that in his head, maybe delaying whatever plan until after....but then he'd have explaining to do either way. I wonder.

 

Sigh.

To be honest, when I played DA2, when I see the boys getting at each other's throats, I sometimes ask myself why my Hawke would even be friends with them in the first place.   If I were her, I'd ditch them and just hang out with Varric and Aveline.

 

*sigh* I think at this point we could just agree to disagree. All this talk about DA2 is putting me in a salty mood. (And I'm on THAT time of the month so I'm feeling extra salty.)

This.    The Asari embrace this.  And maybe - if the ancient elves had not destroyed themselves - they might have eventually as well. As it stands, Solas has NO time to adjust to this.   The game will likely have to deal with this directly.  I don't know how they could leave that just hanging.
