Speaking of music and writing, I basically wrote an entire dragon age novel in my head while I was driving around doing errands today. Well I already had some of the outline written down but anyway I feel good about it.

Florence and the machine was blasting and basically every single song made me think of Inquisition. She even mentions the Breach once in some of the lyrics.

 

Florence and the Machine is a good choice for all sorts of feelings. What's your story about?

You should transfer it from head to screen!

Florence and the machine is great for evoking feels... Hmm, I was actually looking for more music to evoke some more feels... All right, I'm off on another walk!

Oh, I'm writing it. It's not really fanfiction, I guess, it's a total stand alone story, all new characters. Some things are mentioned, like the inquisition, but nothing else. Its about a girl who is somewhat spoiled who suddenly finds herself utterly alone in the world, with out friends, family, or anything, and out of necessity decides to join the Inquisition. Its about her journey to Haven to join up and the adventures and...self-awareness she sort of goes through on the way, and she meets various people along the way.

It's a thing. I have to write it. It's going to be a full size novel, but God knows what I'm going to do with it. Going to take ages to finish.

My main character is lovely. She's completely sheltered and naive and has little skill in fighting. Though, obviously there will be fighting. I'm enjoying getting to know her.

So, if Schroedinger's nug is still in the box, but Cole is sitting next to it, do you think he can tell if the nug is alive or dead?

 

Schrodinger's nug is alive, because Cole would totally let the poor thing out.    :crying:   Compassion-based deterministic universe!

I think I've officially gone crazy but there seems to be a Pac Man easter egg in Mythal's Temple?

It's where you find Fen'Harel's statue. You have to look through the middle window on the right and tilt it around to find it through the leaves.

Someone tell me that I haven't actually gone bonkers trying to find stuff.

 

Screenshots!  I demand screenshots!

Cole is the quantum observation that will save every nug in Thedas.

Question time!

 

Who is saying "mm, quite!" in the banter at 3:41:44? Is it Dorian or Solas?

 

https://www.youtube....h?v=b0zNyv_WdH0 (starts at 3:40:5).

 

It happens if the Inquisitor once romanced Bull and is now with Sera.

... it's strange how smoothly this thread moved from hoarding snacks/junk food to sports :lol:

Or maybe it's not strange at all, given the time... I suppose I shouldn't be surprised if we moved to quantum physics next!

I'm pretty sure that's why most eluvians shut down.

(BTW, my phone now considers elvish and smut to be commonly used words and tries to replace them for other words :))

Speaking of sports, do Theodosian Elves have any sport that is unique to them ? Just curious.

 

Chess is something that every Theodosian culture has. I would not be surprised that Elvhen chess use Elven gods instead of Kings, Queens, etc. The Elvhen version of the Knight would the Fen'Harel because of its ability to move through opponent's lines.

 

Wicked Grace, Chanson d'Argent and Dead Man's Tricks are Human games.

 

Nug racing, arena duels / The Proving and Diamondback are Dwarven games, though Humans race nugs and play Diamonback too.

 

But the Elves don't see to have any games of their own. Probably they spend their time frolicking, hugging trees, riding hart / halla and that's it. No time for games.

i think it's a reference to the "loosen the lid" dialogue before it (right before it in the video). as in she has a jar strapped near her privates as a really weird reference to the inquisitor's vag being a jar.

That's a good question. I never would have thought of it that way.

 

I'm sure Thedas humans have a lot of the same sports and hobbies as real medieval humans did; hawking and hunting for human nobles, and gruesome blood sports like bear-bating and ****-fighting for human peasants. (I'd like to think city elves wouldn't do the same with their backyard animals, but being elven doesn't automatically make them all better people...)

 

I'll bet bull-fighting is a thing in Antiva (or else Orlais; they're flamboyant enough for it) the same way it is in real-world Spain.

 

I'll bet public executions and jousting tournaments are popular for humans and city elves and surface dwarves too, just like how arena fighting and Provings are popular in Orzammar.

 

But the Elves don't see to have any games of their own. Probably they spend their time frolicking, hugging trees, riding hart / halla and that's it. No time for games.

 

I doubt they have time.  :(

 

City elves probably work too hard for too many long hours to enjoy too many pastimes. They probably just enjoy cards and drinks at local taverns to blow off some steam between long shifts. (Although, like I said, some unemployed vagrants might enjoy making their stray alienage dogs or backyard roosters fight each other for sport. Blood sports were really popular in the middle ages.)

 

I can't really think of what the Dalish would enjoy doing; maybe halla racing, but halla are sacred animals, so they wouldn't do that. Since they have to spend all their time hunting for food, crafting weapons and armor to defend themselves, and simply surviving, I can't imagine they'd have much time to do much else besides simple pleasures, like drinking around a fire or exploring fun places in new areas.

I wish I could. On PS4 and my phone sadly. It looks like a wheel of cheese with a slice missing and then three dots to the left and two up with the missing 'slice' facing the dots. I thought they were moons at first until I saw them in a bent line like a L

You can take a screenshot by clicking the "Share" button on your controller while playing. Then hit triangle button to save the screenshot to the PS4. Then you can go to the screenshots app and save your screenshots to a flash drive.

Also, Abelas keeps calling us Trespassers and it's not making the wait any easier. Way to remind me of possible approaching dlc heartache, hot ancient elf.
