Well, my favorite dumb choice of my first PT was: It says here it's a mage's punishment, let's make Erimond Tranquil. What?! Why does everyone hate me?
Oh, and for extra impact, I was playing a mage as usual.
It's easy to forget what this experience might be like for someone's first time.
I don't share art very often, but just saw this one on tumblr and it made me really emotional for a moment.
He wears a crown he never wanted... (Spoilered for blood)
So I am guessing most of us here wants to redeem Solas. I am just hoping that for those who want to kill him, the writers will give him a clean death like Corypheus. Man, some of the hate for Solas on the other threads and all the details of how they want to kill/torture him just makes me go o_O.
Turning him inside out and shooting his bits into the fade's what you call a clean death? 
I mean, I suppose there indeed wasn't a blood splatter, but...

At least you can claim innocence. I made that decision with Adaar, knowing perfectly well what it meant. This was after allying with the mages at Redcliffe. Oops 
I am glad, at least, that the game called me out on it.
Those are the highlights, for the most part it was like: Do I have to go in that cave? Will there be fighting? I really don't want to fight again. I get startled when the enemies charge at me, and I really can't press all these buttons so quickly. Damnit, which button do I press for potions again?
Thankfully, several months later: Muahaha, stonefist them all!
Eventually I'll learn the intricacies of tactics as well, but I'm not quite there yet.
Hahaha... that's what happened to me as well. I am still ashamed
No shame, falon. I really don't see why anyone would be ashamed (or why anyone would shame them) for exploring something new.
Can't wait to make a total idiot out of myself at D&D on Saturday!

Kudos for that! As messed up as my Lavellan can be, I can't play seriously and make a PC capable of tranquilizing people.

Sweeping stuff under the Veil fits my idea of clean.
Guys I have to whine a little.
I was so close to finally finishing my damned bachelor degree and now it appears I have to wait one more semester. That may not sound too bad, but see, I am already late as it is. I should have finished last winter's term but I couldn't because I was missing credits from a course that I had to take in third or fourth semester. In third semester there was no course that interested me so I chose to wait for the next term. I signed up for a course then, but the lecturer send me a message saying that I cannot participate, since the course is only for people who had taken it in third semester. The other courses were already full, too. The next term was for internships only, so I could not take any courses and had to work full-time instead. Then things happened and I started to think about dropping out of college. I don't want to go into too much detail here, but let's just say I had a hard time and no interest in doing anything anymore, especially thinking about things concerning my future.
Eventually I got over it, it's a year later now and I decided I do want to finish. I earned 177 out of 180 points already. I asked a professor if I could join her 3rd semester course to catch up on the missed course. She said I could and that it would be possible to write a paper and leave the course early so I can register for my bachelor exam in time. (It is not possible to register with unfinished courses prior to 5th or 6th semester.) NOW she says, no I cannot drop out after having attended just one third of the time. This means I will not be able to register and have to wait for next semester. I will also have to pay the fees for summer term, although I will just be writing my thesis for 10 weeks and defend it at the examination board four to six weeks later.
She also said I could try and ask other lecturers if they would be okay with me only attending a short time and writing a paper instead. But honestly I doubt anyone will.
I'm so mad right now and could kick myself for not having taken any course just to be done with it. Also I noticed my thoughts going back to the places they have been for almost the last year and I do not want that to happen again. It took me so long to overcome my fear and go back to college and now this happens.
I dread the time when people start asking again when I will be done with my studies. I was so glad to be able to actually answer that instead of just trying to be as vague as possible and drop the topic quickly.
Sorry for my ranting, I'm somewhat upset and there's no one I can talk to right now.
I'd be angry, too, if I had my hopes and expectations dashed because a professor changed the terms of our agreement.
People only ask when you're done your studies to make conversation. Those who matter won't care when you finish (they only want to celebrate with you when you do) and those who do care (Judgy McJudgerpantses) don't matter. I have a learning disability, which made getting my degrees take longer than usual, but I still got them. I get to place the same letters after my name as everyone else. We don't all take the same path to get to the same destination.
You decided to go back and finish your degree after a significant time away, which tells me you are stronger than you think. You will get through this (Mala suledin nadas!) and when you get your degree, you should post a picture of yourself at your convocation. Maybe holding a golden nug...
Poor Cory. Downgraded from darkspawn hamster to darkspawn dust bunny.
TBH, Cory always looked like a guy wearing a meat dress to me. Doesn't his outfit look like a meat dress?
I would enjoy this too. You'd need a few wolves though, somehow.
He uses wolves.. to... herd... cattle.. to a safe place?...
-Brain broke-
Solas will have a pet wolf which he rescued from a hunter who wanted to kill him for his fur.

But baby, he was born this way! Or at the very least, he woke up this way after a thousand years of stasis?

He's just caught in a bad romance with the Architect.

If he woke up like this....worst bad hair day/hangover ever.
I have new feels for the poor guy.
Can i just say that it still burns a little in the chest that Cory actually saved the world? Sorta.

I ship this to this.

I think Fly'Harel took mine.
And out of likes already
I saw an agent of Fly'Harel in my kitchen this morning. I'm now out of likes too.

'Ashamed' might have been a wrong word it was more like: 'Oh, a new interesting option, haven't seen that one before! Let's see what it does... oh... oh?! ABORT ABORT RELOAD'
I had similar reaction with the Warden choice, especially after seeing an animation of Cass disapproving. That was an especially painful reload, since beating the Nightmare was a challenge for me on my first playthrough. Now having understood the universe and history of Thedas better, I can see that this choice is not as black and white as it initially seemed to me (under the influence of the majority disapprovals) and I am actually doing a playthrough where I will keep the Wardens.

I need your likes and the network of freezer doors to fulfill my secret plan.
Only Cee has access to the freezer network. It takes her to a magical realm full of ice cream and spirits of fruitiness.

Ugh, so annoying. I'm grateful that higher education is free here in Scandinavia, otherwise I would have been completely broke by now. I studied a total of 6 years to become a teacher, only to realize the hard way that there just weren't any jobs teaching my subjects. I managed to scrape along for 3 years working mostly as a special ed teacher, but they can not legally hire you long term unless you have a specific education for that. So this semester I made the tough decision to go back to the university, and now I will be studying in a completely different field altogether for the next 2 years. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I understand how hard it must feel for you to go back to college, and I too often try to avoid telling people that I'm studying. Feel free to rant about it, and I will keep my fingers crossed for you!
So Solas, uhmmm...

This actually redeemed him in my eyes to the point I can play through the game finale without grinding my teeth. He went from a tragic character with kickass entrée to a cartoon villain, to finally end as an unexpected saviour of the known world. I dig it bad hair day/hangover excentric style and all that ;]

Yeah.....like I would sit and have a cup of tea with him I think.
Not saying I would go along with his ideas or anything. But I could totally have a cup of tea and chat.
Anyway, maybe some of you lovely people will enlighten me since I am completely puzzled by Solas' outfit shenanigans. Sometimes he sports his cozy jumper in the Haven smooching scene, sometimes he wears his full rags armour set. *scratches head*
It depends. I think it's understandable that someone would complain if they invested hours in previous games and DAI took a turn they didn't enjoy.
If I don't like how Solavellan ends, I will complain in public. And I'll be pretty desperate
Now I meant more like the complains that are like '' this game sucks '' and then you ask them why? and they cannot give a real answer. Yes if you just say as I did about Thane's romance that I think that Bioware screwed it up because of how early he dies in the game and the way he dies + no one seems to care ( before citadel dlc ) so yes critics and complains like that are different of course.
Retour en haut
