And now I want some spoon bread....uggggggghhh that's the one thing I can't cook. (I tried making some and I screwed it up )

 

You would eat my people? Hella racist. I expect that from a Dalish hater. 

[TheJediSaint]

I like to dip bacon in the maple syrup when I eat waffles.

Then you're eating bacon the right way.

[Ryzaki]

Ugh... mixing sugar and meat... what's wrong with you people?  o_O

 

I think I'll take raging monkey up on that offer of a drink... I'm feeling sick just considering such culinary sacrilege.

 

It's good tho...

 

 

How about a milk chocolate and beef jerky bar

 

*snip*

 

Okay this grossed me out a bit. I love my chocolate and my jerky but um...no to them together.
 

 

No that's you

 

you keep telling yourself that

[Icy Magebane]

City Elves still have a culture of their own. If they assimilate into human culture they lose that. And hence would become "like humans with pointy ears."

 

Also reading too much into it? As if it's totally unreasonable to imagine someone would ever say something like that?

 

This is a thread where every few pages people talk about great it would be to kill all Dalish everywhere.

Personally I don't see much need for unique cultures between the elves and humans that live within the same nation... all this really does is ensure that divisiveness persists through the generations.  Nations in Thedas would be better suited to monolithic cultures regardless of whether the individual is an elf or a human... that's the only way for the old prejudices to soften.

If you people taste that good yes I shall eat you and play you the songs of my people as I do so

Then there should be no reason at all to just assimilate into Andrastian culture, something made by humans for humans. Something wholly new would have to be made.

[Jedi Master of Orion]

There's no such thing as human culture.

 

Of course there is. It's absurd to suggest otherwise.

 

 

Is it unreasonable to say that someone wouldn't?

What does that have to do with City Elves again? 

 

Because BSN is generally a place where people love to loudly proclaim extreme sociopathic troll positions. Genocide of all Dalish is one such position and it's far more extreme than saying that that City Elves need to abandon all their customs for human customs. So there is no reason to think that this thread would be too restrained to ever say such a thing about the City Elves.

Human lands, human rules.

For the last time. There. Is. No. Human. Culture. It's like you don't even read anything that doesn't involve oppression and assault. 

[Grand Admiral Cheesecake]

You know, sometimes Clan Virnehn's plan just sounds the best.

 

At any rate, here's to hoping that Dalish activity won't be enough of a hindrance to the Inquisition that I'll be forced into opposing it... and here's to hoping that it's necessary enough for us that no one else will be able to oppose it.

 

Wow. I hate the Dalish and even I wouldn't hope that wiping them out was mandatory.

 

I'll just go ahead and put you down for mandatory mage support, mandatory Celene support, and all your other causes.

 

Because if anyone picks another option in their own game it's a vile sin.

[Br3admax]

No there isn't. It's the very first thing you learn when playing human in Dragon Age Origins. It's the first thing you tell Morrigan.

Except they aren't the same thing, and have nothing to do with each other besides being elves. It's also cool how you're singling out a poster just because he's on BSN without actually knowing more about him or his stance on anything. 

[Xilizhra]

Human lands, human rules.

Sorry, I don't believe in the heritability of stolen property. This is an equitable arrangement or none at all.

You'll note that what I said was "Andrastian" culture, not "human" culture. If you wish, I'll say "Andrastian cultures" in plural.

I hope Thedas develops the concept of minority rights at some point.

Who said anything about genocide? After the dalish are fully routed militarily and disarmed, they'll be assimilated into humanity/CEs. 

 

A better future awaits them.

This isn't about Andraste. Or her religion. This about elves and humans sharing a homeland together, and religion doesn't need to be involved with that. 

[I SOLD MY SOUL TO BIOWARE]

Human lands, human rules.

 

Hence why, once again, I'm in favour of the Dalish just moving on and finding somewhere beyond humans. 

 

Not much left for them in these parts anymore. The horse has been dead for centuries now.

[Ryzaki]

Hopefully.

 

I support the city elves being treated as the equal to any human in similar status.

 

That's gonna be a long and rocky road though =/

[Shadow Fox]

I like maple syrup on ham,sausage and bacon

 

and love putting jam&jelly on Hardes sausage&biscuts

It's kind of baffling they insist on sticking around.

 

I'd bounced. Not worth it really =/

 

I have the same issue with the Quarians. You lost. Let it go.

 

 

All you're doing is getting yourself killed refusing to lick your wounds and get over it.

The problem is that's only a solution for the Dalish.  City Elves for the most part aren't going to have the means or desire to move on.  They have to learn to live with humans, and vice versa.

[The Baconer]

The city elves have a tough lot, no argument.  But I don't think the Dalish offer a better solution.

 

I don't think they offer an ideal solution either. Really though, look at the alternative (city elves), how is that supposed to be appealing in any way? Why should submission be considered the logical choice here? Are we only saying that because we assume racial-relations in Thedas are going to progress in a manner somewhat similar to those in our own world?

 

If you were an elf, especially a Dalish, would you seriously bank on that happening? I sure as hell wouldn't.

It kind of doesn't matter. Humans are more numerous, and for the most part, far more advanced as a society and militarily. Whatever the elves get is what the humans simply allow, and this is assuming that the elves as a race/species can stand the test of time, in the face of the fact that as they intermingle with humans, their elven identity becomes even more diminished with cross-breeding.

[Icy Magebane]

Why would the race that founded and built a nation acquiesce to the desires of a secondary race that was granted permission to live on the outskirts of town purely out of altruism when their ancestors could have simply exterminated them?  The humans don't owe anything to the elves... it's harsh, but true... if the elves had any power they'd be able to negotiate and implement aspects of their culture into their nation's identity, but right now they are at the mercy of humans.  That is not my opinion or even something I'm happy about, it is simply a fact.  The agreement doesn't have to be "fair," since the humans are under no obligation to do anything at all for the elves... none.
