I liked that purely for the hilarious gif I promise. :ph34r: I know how crappy game crashes are, I've experienced plenty. :'c Sorry bout that. I've had it happen to my current file a few times, thank the maker for autosave lol.


Yeah. Autosaves are kinda infrequent in Awakening though. Last night I got sloppy around one of them Emissary guys, my party wiped. Figured, ah, just got here a minute ago, autosave's got my back, right?
Spoiler


Lost about 10 minutes progress.
Been quicksaving more frequently since then.

I hope there'll be a lot of potions from looting. The way I play, I'm gonna need them.

Aw I can't see the picture lol. but eeeegh that sucks. >.< play and learn I guess haha. Even though I've beaten DA2 like 4 times, I find myself hardsaving before each decision just in case I mess up my companion friendship/rivalry. XD Kinda glad that system isn't coming back tbh...

I think there will be the ability to stock a good amount of potions this time around for sure since they'll pretty much be our saving grace for battle. Same here though, I'm playing on lame-o casual (I really suck at combat when playing on PC) and still almost died against the dragon in the deep roads... >.>

Eluvianus Rex posted the banter from the lets play in the thread over in Scuttlebutt...

 

Cassandra: I think it's time you stopped playing the wounded party with me, Varric.

 

Varric: Ignoring the times you actually wounded me?

 

Cassandra: I did no such thing. I questioned you, and then brought you to Haven so you could tell your story to the Divine.

 

Varric: What then? 'Thanks, Varric! We believe you! See you around!'

 

Cass: And ignoring the fact that you did lie to me. Do not pretend to be an innocent bystander. I could have done far worse, with full justification.

 

Varric: Yes, thank you for not torturing me. I'm so much happier now.

 

 

Poor Varric... I don't think he's gonna be the happy go lucky chap we knew...

 

Does anyone else kinda wanna slap Cass?

I hope this is sarcasm on his part and not just bitterness. 

 

 

And no I don't. While I like Varric, he deserved the book to the face and knife when he tried being a wise guy.

Is there any non-terrifying Cassandra/Varric slash fanart out there? That'd be an interesting pairing, I think.

The last one is sarcasm, but he seems bitter/Not liking Cassandra much. He said in another banter she's Not a very interesting subject for a story.

Oh, Varric. Why you got to be like that? Between this and blaming all Qunari for what happened in Kirkwall, it seems Varric is looking to earn a position of permanent bench warmer.

Went something like this. :lol:

I wasn't a huge fan of the Rivalry system either, it felt wrong trying to play my decisions of everyone in my party, and it was hard to read sometimes. Why did Aveline not like that? Why did Varric like that?

Kinda anticipating a sort of apex companion affection system in Inquisition. That they said you can't actually see the "score" bodes well for the organic nature of interactions. Also speaks about the volume of companion content, if their behaviour alone is indicative of their opinion of you... that's a lot of needed content.

Well, Cassandra didn't exactly treat him well, expecially if there's more then what we saw in DA2. And ok Qunari, I'll see what will exactly say to Bull before judging.
Not going to benching him though.

I expect him to be somewhat bitter and I can understand... but I'm hoping that's mostly sarcasm. I mean I can get him not liking Cass much at first, she was pretty aggressive and we all know how Varric feels about aggressive decisions lol. All in all, I'm not too worried but I do expect him to be somewhat more solemn about things this time around.

Yeah I think it will be very different this time around and I'm quite curious to see. A tad bit nervous, but to be completely honest the friendship/rivalry system was waaaay easy to influence to our preference once we got the hang of it, so this will be much more realistic most likely. XD

The only time she treated him bad was when he tried being a wise guy. I love Varric but when I see that scene I'm like "Yeah, he deserved that." 

We already know he doesn't have a positive relationship with Bull because he is a Qunari.

Can you blame him? She's not exactly been friendly to him. Even in that banter she's acting very high and mighty. I guess we'll have to break the haughty with Cassandra.

Um, that's rather dark.  :blink:

I know Cass has her own reasons and I admire her dedication, but I won't be allowing her to pick on Varric if I can help it. I'll stand up for him just like I'll stand up for her and all of my companions. ^_^ Until I play a jerk, then it's a free-for-all. XD

Cassandra is an interesting character in that she believes that while she acts for a good cause, she can do no wrong. That 'black and white' thinking DG referred to. She's going to have to learn that one can do great evil even when acting with pure intentions.

I didn't want to name him because, well, it tends to get an explosive reaction. *runs away*
