True.  I think I'm still just a touch wary after Mass Effect.  I romanced Garrus and dodged a bullet, but I had friends who were very, very upset.

 

I think it's time for adorable kitty gifs.

Same here. I dodged that same bullet by romancing Garrus.

The fact that Weekes is head writer does give me some hope.

 

But he's all about fan tears. I mean, he wrote Rannoch for ME3. Which was beautiful, but also incredibly soul crushingly sad.

 

And he killed off Best Elf...

Damn it.  I was happy in the Solavellan hellspiral shallows.  It was warm and occasionally sunny and I had a nice comfy cabana there.  And you're all pulling me back into the actual storm.

 

I DON'T WANNA FEEL THESE FEELS.  I'm gonna go watch Star Wars instead.  

I try to make fun of him but I think all I can do is make people feel sad.  I manage to make Elora cry about once a day about Samson.  Even gave Liz feels over my Solas meta.  

He's just too sad.  I feel for him, but  maybe I'm just on the crazy ex-gf train of 'oh we'll see him again.  it'll be ok. IT WILL BE OK' . jk my lavellan is not that crazy. i have to agree with you sable on JoH. it was just too optimistic and too heartening for me to feel sad. I think once we get ALL the DLC and i can properly play through the story in one go - that one is going after Solas leaves.  

 

also i was just at a concert where I was imbued with a sense of...self-importance. what kind of ******* goes to an indoor concert and wears sunglasses. also there was a serious lack of metal at this concert.  i was very sad. the things i do for my friends.

Well...even if the ending is sad..if it's done in a beautiful way..it won't be so bad...  We'll be able to cry for a while and then move on. 

 

If it's done badly, we'll all be pissed off forever!!

Though, IMO, Mordin's ME2 loyalty mission was the best in the game. It was surprising, shocking, and incredibly touching.  Weekes and these multifaceted, amazing characters that drive me to puddles of feelings and tears.

I didn't see it that way. I think it gives your Inquisitor a sense of purpose AND you can be optimistic about Solas' return.  These things are not mutually exclusive.  Even at the end - Ameridan was still pretty positive and reassuring.

I see it that way too. I think that's another reason why it can fit in multiple parts of your journey.

 

I keep seeing people say the DLC doesn't add much and lacks emotional depth and I'm like....were you playing the same thing as I was?

Yea.  No, it doesn't push the story further but I thought it added an incredible sense of depth to the world. I thought the lore presented is almost all foreshadowing.  I don't think anything that was put was just in there for nothing. THen you get all the feels with Ameridan and his companions/Telana.  Then the Avvar. What a great addition to the gameworld. Their view of spirits is just wonderful and I wanted to hug all of them.  I left the DLC feeling pretty happy with it.

I know in the past, there's been a tendency for the LIs that female PCs can romance to turn out tragically (Thane) or just plain badly (Jacob).  Hopefully that's not deliberate, and Solas's romance gets some kind of resolution like Morrigan's did.

it isn't fair, but i've already thrown a tantrum in this thread about it so i'll just let it go

 

Every time I get sad about Solas.. I think that Weekes is head writer now and he didn't want Thane to die..so...

 

 

Team Optimism GO!!! 

he's amazing, i love weeks and i love everything he writes

 

i think their handling of thane was wasteful and cliche, and i suspect p.dubs would have more of an issue with that than championing the rights and happiness of fan girls.

 

no one likes us, we cry on everything.

 

The fact that Weekes is head writer does give me some hope.

And he killed off Best Elf...

rannoch *could* be sad, you got a choice about tali jumping off that cliff.

 

legion always dies but only sort of? He was introduced very late in me2 and didn't have a lot of screen time. His character arc on rannoch was way better and his death was a meaningful climax to that story, not just a cheap gimmick.

 

me3 had so many tragic heroic deaths it stopped being sad and started being almost hilariously predictable like oh wow who's it going to be this time oops there goes miranda. interspersed with unskippable, slow mo dream sequences of you chasing a dead child through a forest. because ART.

 

rannoch was a nice balance, plus you got to play chicken with a reaper.

his story was tragic and sad but i'd even take that much. I'm not even worried about a sad ending anymore i'm more concerned that the relationship will be entirely ignored :(

I don't think it will. I sincerely don't. Obviously I can't be certain, but like the fandom is so insanely loud and have been pestering and begging PW to resolve this and for more info, I don't think they will be ignored.  I don't think they would have set it up that way to just let it go.  

 

 So unless BW/EA go completely bankrupt...I think we'll get something.

Oh, I totes mean Legion. Even though he didn't have a lot of screen time, I still got really attached, he was such a sweet character.

His moments on Rannoch make for such a beautiful scene, and a really perfect end to his arc. But gods is it sad. I've played that game a lot of times and I still cry.

It would also be pretty cruel to have it lock in so late and not have it addressed somehow. That was the worst achievement timing in a game ever.

I had so little time with Legion since my Shepard was an infiltrator, but I loved him. Brought me to tears.

Fixed it for you.

 

I actually laughed when that initially popped up. Really cut into the sadness of the situation.  "BELOVED AND PRECIOUS".

You guys. Forgive this off topic spewing, but...

 

Let me tell you a little story. About this girl who's been looking to break into her amazing new career and has been unemployed for a thousand years at least. And this girl looked at this amazing job posting yesterday, which this girl believed she was totes under-qualified for, and almost didn't apply to. She actually closed the tab. But then it nagged at her for several minutes. So she said to herself, **** it, and re-opened the tab and applied. Then got called for an interview within the next two hours.

 

Spoiler

 

AND WENT TO THE INTERVIEW AND GOT THE GLORIOUS JOB ON THE SPOT. THE GIRL IS ME. **** YEAH. GO ME. GOT A JOB TODAY.

 

Spoiler

 

I am going to properly catch up on the forums tomorrow, and actually try to contribute. Just.. SO MANY HAPPIES I NEEDED TO SHARE. *screams herself hoarse*
