The day keeps getting saved by lady rogues in my version of Thedas.

 

Though none of their LIs have ever been other rogues. After Alistair,  complicated mages happened.

[Siha]

I'm firm believer of playing a game and deciding my own views and opinions concerning it for myself, rather than base it all solely on reviews. I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed it immensely. 

 

I really come to like you.

 

I just mentioned it since it was a repetitive occurrence with regards to this game and also specifically he started picking at the fact I have the Solas romance tarot card as my tablet background and I've been posting/tweeting Solas related things. Which, is only natural at this point. It took my Liara thing time to settle into 'I still love you but I'm not actively in everything that has to do with you constantly anymore'  and this will probably go the same way to some degree. I'm prepared for that. The fangirling life cycle.

 

Yup. I fangirled over Alistair, Fenris, Cullen while I played the games. Would not stop me from viciously laughing at my boyfriend for doing the exact same thing. I used to make fun of my boyfriend for still liking Halo after the third part. I still backed him up in co-op any time. In short: I so wouldn't care about what your boyfriend does. But you seemed to have a problem and when RogueBait showed so much concern I just thought to say that it (and he) doesn't sound so bad to me actually. I don't think you guys have any problem at all.

I was going to romance Cullen, who I felt was a bit meh... And then it was going to be Dorian... But I would have to play male and that is never my first choice...

 

And then WELSH happened, given that hubby is Welsh and I've been madly in love with the accent/intonation for 25+ years and this was actually the first thing that attracted me to hubby... Well my choice was made.

 

And Solas is great. Such a beautifully complex character.

 

This was basically my exact experience. I wasn't overly impressed by any of the LIs pre-release and had just sort of resigned myself to being stuck with Cullen.

 

But then Welsh.

The day keep getting saved by lady mages in mine.  And usually lady elven mages.

[Sable Rhapsody]

also, apparently all my LI's are elves... damn you, Solas...

 
I was never all that into or interested in elves before DA:I.  I liked my Tabris, but I was always more interested in the mage/templar thing, and both my Warden and Hawke were Amell mages.  Badass ones.
 
Then Solas rolls around with all his lore and his accent and his stupid sexy walk, and I'm like, "OK, I GUESS I'll pay attention to elves this game."  Pbbt

I know dat life cycle.  I think I'm finally getting to the point where I don't feel the insane compulsion to write/read fanfiction all the time, and I've more-or-less moved on to playing other things.  Though part of that is because the patches keep breaking mods.  Also the trailer for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided came out, and the part of my brain that fangirls over Adam Jensen is now whirring into high gear.

 

Sorry, Solas.  Come back when you've got cybernetic arms that can punch through half a foot of concrete

This thread is like the perfect thing for my very broken heart atm, my character (LIES IT WAS MOSTLY ME) obviously fell right away for him and now...ahhh. As mentioned early he felt like such a complex character and imo it really enhanced the story romancing him, even though it was so bittersweet.

Quick..someone post the blanket fort!

My ladies are of different classes for each game, lol! (Warrior for DAO, mage for DA2, and rogue for DAI)

 

Though I don't think I've ever had a rogue as my canon LI yet.

I would have loved to have all my PCs that saved the day be elves but DA2 robbed me of that choice. Grr...

I really come to like you.

 

And I you.

[Siha]

O_O

When? Where? How? I've been waiting for this day for... ohgodidon'tknowhowlong. My most beloved stealth game (and I assume I must have played them all). Excuse me while I leave to shed a few tears of joy.

(It is with Jensen again? I am actually disappointed, I had hoped for a new story/setting.)

Welcome here! We have a blanket fort. Though I cannot provide the picture now... but it has candles (I think). If you need anything, room service is quite affordable.

I posted because it annoyed me specifically and was curious if anyone related to the 'game dismissed for silly reasons like romance' which happened, but that was part of the greater picture. But yeah, we've been together for almost 10 years. He's a stubborn guy and I have no problem liking what I like and going with it anyway, even if I get eye rolls. These things come and go. Though I still have my Shepard and Liara plastered all over my PCs and phone and they've been there for years. But these things settle, just as with books, movies, etc. A great character is a great character.

If I have the option to be an elf in a game, I will always take that option.

 

I blame Tolkien.

@SIHA - i've been fangirling for days over Deus Ex.  LOOK AT HIM. HE'S GLORIOUS.  

Uh Solas...um...sorry without sexy cyborg arms, you got nuthin. 

Spoiler

[Sable Rhapsody]

@SIHA - i've been fangirling for days over Deus Ex.  LOOK AT HIM. HE'S GLORIOUS.  

 

I kind of agree with Siha.  I would have liked to see a broader treatment of the world of Deus Ex, and I think there are always pitfalls of having the same character in a series, especially when they pick up a lot of emotional baggage (see also: Shepard).  We got Hengsha and Detroit in Human Revolution, but I would have loved to see 2029 from, say, Paris or Istanbul or Cape Town.  Or just the perspective of someone other than a relatively well-off white American guy.

 

But I also have an unabashed fangirl love for Jensen and his VA, so I'm mostly happy

DA2 is just a spiral for everyone but I say let's go with it. Not like Hawke didn't do anything good....it was circumstances and actions of others in the end...

Welcome. This is quite the familiar feeling around here.

JENSEN:

 

Okay. This is not a stealth game anymore. There goes my full ghost pacifist run. It doesn't matter. In love there must be compromise. If they want me to slice open throats to be reunited, I will do so with my teeth and fingernails if need be.

And I take it all back: it couldn't have been anybody but Jensen. (God, I'm such a weak, manipulable amphibian.)

Oh god yes, that poor broken soul, left behind all alone in that shabby apartment in that shabby town (no offense to any Detroit resident), not even enough motivation to get rid of those boxes in his... damn, I loved that game. I could stack boxes to hide! BOXES!

[Cee]

It seems I should dust the last Deus Ex game off at some point from the depths of my unplayed Steam library.

 

edit:

 

Here to steal a few moments of your day:

 

[NightSymphony]

hehehe...The Dragon Age Facebook page posted this a couple days ago. It made me giggle.

yeah yeah..not Solas..blah blah blah

Er, I was talking about the choice of playing as an elf but oh well.

 

Edit: Also, I've never played Deus Ex so I wish I was as excited as everyone else about it. (Please don't hurt me.)

Not so sure they will place us in Detroit again. He could have moved. I would have in his shoes. And the rest were just travels. It's easy to pick other places.

Jensen was okay, not too significant anyway. I would have hoped for another protagonist, simply to have a brand new experience. But no need crying over spilled milk. In the end I will love it just the same.

I should probably get around to finishing it.

 

I was… really not very good at that game. I'm more of a run and gun type of gal. Stealth is… not my bag.

You don't have to go stealth. You can play it as a full fledged shooter. Equip the assault rifle or whatever you like and launch a full frontal assault.

Ohhh, nevermind then. Ha.

 

DA2 helped me get tired of playing humans, which led to me playing an elf in DAI. and now, here I am.
