Iron Bull: Has she always been like that seeker?

Cass: Ugh. You don't know the half of it. You should've seen her when she killed her first demon. She was jumping for joy for about 5 minutes.

Iron Bull: Hmm. All we did was kill a dragon and for the last 10 minutes has been doing her happy dance or whatever you call that.

Cass: Haha. You think that's bad, you should play Mass Effect. It has a character named Shepard. Her dancing skills really suck. When we get back to Skyhold, I'll show you. Its a good game, but the dancing is terrible.

Iron Bull: Yeah. I would like that.

Cole: We have to worn Josephine.

Cass: What on you going on about?

Cole: The Inquisitor intends to hurt, maybe even kill her.

Iron Bull: I doubt that will happen Cole.

Cole: The Inquisitor want's to tie her up and sl---

Iron Bull: Hold on there. The Inquisitor and Josephine are lovers. The two of them have interesting ways to make each other smile

Cole: I don't know. We still have to warn Josephine.

Cass: Sigh... Lets go. I like to get back to Skyhold before the food gets cold.

Iron Bull: What about the Inquisitor?

Cass: She can get back on her own. Besides, I'll be damned if I have to stand here any longer while she does whatever she's doing, I would go crazy.

 

much later

 

So they left me. Payback is a b*t*h. What should I do? Exile them? How about execute them? Or maybe just replace them? Aha. I know. I'm so mean. HAHAHAHAHAHA. 

 

What devious plan does the Inquisitor have?

What will become of her companions?

 

Tune in next time. Same Inquisitor thread, same Inquisitor time. Haha

Confrontation & The Ideal Romance...

 

What Thegrath would do for his lady friend...

The most wooing and sexy face Thegrath ever did. 

 

 

 

 

And then make out session...

LOL! Having Chief Movran the Under learn from Abernache is totally hilarious! The report from the war table is just too funny. But I needed dem perks.

Finished a music video I did for the Enchanters tavern song last night!

Strange that quest didn't work for you... I'm curious now about whther the latest patch had something to do with it. I'll let you know what happens when I get there in my current game. Anyway, good luck on the new power supply  
 

 

Well, the quest didn't work in my last game either, and that was before I installed Patch 5. The only thing different between that game and my previous ones is the mods I installed. It seems strange that would be the cause but it's certainly possible.

 

As for the PS, that was a dismal failure. The new one I bought doesn't have the 4 pin connector I need to attach to my motherboard.  So I am still stuck with sparkles until I can return it for something that does.

If Revas never sees another walking corpse again, it will be too soon. Between Crestwood, the Fallow Mire and now the Exalted Plains, she is so done with zombies. On the bright side, the Exalted Plains is now done and we even got a T3 schematic for the effort! The highlights:

 

This giant hand:

 

Spoiler

 

The nearby puzzle that Dorian did most of the work for and was rewarded with, you guessed it, more angry dead things and some pretty lights (and did someone say plaidweave? ):

 

Spoiler

 

Revas magically picking up the worryingly permanent ability to glow in the dark (and more plaidweave!):

 

Spoiler

 

And, of course, the gorgeous dragon:

 

Spoiler

 

It was actually a close fight, since I didn't want to return to camp to restock properly. Which I ended up doing anyway, and forgetting to get more...well, everything but regular health potions   But hey, I actually managed to get a pretty cool action shot for a change, so there's that 

 

Afterwards, the group went to Citadelle du Orlesianwords, where there were more corpses and a few nasty little Arcane Horrors. Dorian did most of the work. Again. Then Revas (intentionally, on my part) fell off a wall and ended up following a wooden walkway to a chest with the T3 Battlemaster Schematic, so I guess it worked out alright, aside from the broken shins.

 

We also did Solas's personal quest...yesterday? Perhaps the day before. It all seems to blend together on the Plains. Anyway, his friend turned into a demon, we freed her and she (they? ..."it" seems a tad rude) still died. Solas turned on the idiot mages (from Kirkwall. Of course.) that were responsible, and Revas let him kill them.

 

Spoiler

[insert distant music/hipster joke here]

 

He took off after that. When Revas returned to Skyhold, she was surprised to see him back, as well. He'd calmed down, decided to rejoin the Inquisition. I almost flirted with him, before remembering Revas isn't a huge fan of his, so instead she welcomed him back and he followed her up to her balcony to give her a backhanded compliment and some foreshadowing 

 

And that's it for now. I think Revas has actually managed to max out approval for Varric, Dorian, Cassandra and Blackwall, since even their personal fetch quests no longer give approval. This is also the friendliest Vivienne's ever been for me; despite the Keep saying she's always been friends, she sure seems to hate me most of the time 

Emerald Graves and Temple of Dirthamen next!~

 

Ah, and @ porkFu, I have DAI for PS3/4, not PC, unfortunately. That said, I'm usually up for a couple games, if anyone wants to play multiplayer on those systems 

 

Edit: Spork. SporkFu. Sorry. That's a fun typo 

 

And since I'm editing anyway, I also got a nice little banter where Dorian mentions he's surprised Varric didn't go with Hawke and how he'd been to Weisshaupt and that it's horrible and Varric would hate it. Varric responds with "But Hawke would be there." Aww. Glad I didn't kill your best friend, buddy.

Ah, too bad about your PS ... but I guess if the mods have to negatively affect something, at least it's just a minor quest and not a game-breaker.

could have been worse. ... and, well, maybe Bio will make cross-platform MP a possibility someday like for ME:next. 

 

In my second game, we left Hawke in the fade, and Varric was really broken up about it, so much so that harold had to give him a hug. It was... somewhat awkward, but better than him blubbering into his chesthair in the main hall, I guess ... and that Hawke wasn't even a very nice guy, heh.

 

EDIT: Jeez, almost forgot...

 

Took long enough in the CC but I think I've got an elf I can live with. We'll see once I get her in-game a little bit. Meet Cirwen Lavellan, future rift mage, lover of Solas, and leader of the Magequisition.

I always stop him from killing the mages. One of these days I won't but I haven't had the right character yet. I think what I like best about his quest is, if you play anything other than an elf, you can't understand what they are saying (ie the words are spoken in Elven) but if you are an elf, they are spoken in English. Kind of a nice mini-easter egg for playing an elf.

 

I don't remember if it is like that with Mihris too? Her dialogue is different, I know. When you ask why she's there, if you are an elf she tells you about the Keeper summoning Imshael who then killed everyone but her. If you aren't, she just says something about serving her clan. Despite that, she still called Olinar "shemlen" which really ticked him off.

 

Anyone know how long can I put off recruiting Vivienne before she's no longer available? I haven't picked a side yet at Haven, but I can't made up my mind if I want to recruit her this time or not.

[Nightingale]

In Your Heart Shall burn may be the cutoff. I'm not sure, though, since I think you can recruit Blackwall right up until Here Lies the Abyss. 

 

I actually forgot that you don't get all that if you're not an elf. This is the first time I've let him kill the mages, too. It just seemed like something this particular character would do.

I've left Hawke in the Fade twice, and it was horrible both times. "Safe harbours, Isabela" and Varric demanding to know where they are is enough to convince me to leave the Warden  

 

Cross-platform MP would be wonderful! I was hoping they'd do it with DAI, but since it's on 5 platforms, it'd make an already difficult technical issue simply no worth it, I suppose.

 

Also wonderful? Cirwen  Great job, I think she's fantastic!

[themikefest]

You can do as much as you want in the game without recruiting Blackwall, but as soon as Here Lies the Abyss starts, he can't be recruited

[BraveVesperia]

And, of course, the gorgeous dragon:

Ah! I love those screenshots! The Gamordan Stormrider is definitely the prettiest dragon imo. Like a big bonfire. Sort of strange that she's a lightning dragon, considering... though I guess that would set fire to a forest and then... bonfire.

Yay, magequisition! I love her eyes, Spork (or pork?), very vivid and lively. 

 

Today, Sera and Cassandra had a banter about mucky books. On my previous PT (near the end of the game), Sera said “maybe Creepy took it, he’s always touching things” in an offhand way. This time she said “maybe that... thing took it. It’s always... touching things” in this really disgusted voice. I guess, in her own small way, even Sera finds that Cole grows on her. Not a huge change of heart like Cass, but she stops despising him, I guess that’s something!

 

The team completed various tasks in the Hinterlands – horse racing, collecting crystal grace (for a certain crown), Lord Woolsey. Plus, that nefarious swine, the druffalo.  Trev led that creature down to the rift, as usual. The party then proceeded to battle every demon that came out, while the druffalo looked on with barely contained boredom. It got a little feisty at one point, when one of the mages hit it with some frost, but thankfully didn’t attack us!

Spoiler

 

The party got attacked by a bear while on the way to kill a Venatori for Dorian. The mages and Sera hit it from afar, while Cass got in close to beat it up. Just as it fell, Sera got jumped from behind by another bear. Literally in  the blink of an eye, Cassandra whooshed into that bear, then tore it to pieces. She covered what must have been like 100 metres in a heartbeat. That lady is keen when it comes to bearicide. 

 

We then moved on briefly to the Mire to pick up Trev’s special KE ingredients and some Warden goodies for Blackwall. Completely forgot that one of them requires Deft Hands to get to.  Then we collected some more from the Storm Coast. Trev stumbled upon a poem/song that I’m half-convinced was written about Isabela.

Spoiler

 

Finally collected some more shards so we can open the first Solassan door, and see what the party has to say about the weirdness there. Before going in, Trev was overcome with the urge to try and jump onto the back of one of the tiny hippos. He wanted to see if he could sort of... surf on it while it ran around. He must be distantly related to one of my Saints Row characters. 

Spoiler

 

Sadly, he kept sliding off, like the hippo was a slippery slope or something (must be all that Oasis water).  Halfway through his experiment, they all got attacked by a giant. The hippo got away unscathed (somehow?) but once the giant was dead, I noticed three dead fennecs. There weren’t even any fennecs there before! Do they spawn just to die as unlucky bystanders? There’s some weirdness afoot here. 

 

Finally, while fighting some Venatori in front of the temple, Trev had the slight issue where he couldn’t use any area attacks. Every time he tried to aim a barrier, it went on the ceiling instead of the floor... That always makes the fighting a little tricky.

It's too bad that the elf couldn't understand what the Nightmare was saying to Solas in the Fade.  Though, I suppose it would make things awkward later if s/he understood that the Nightmare was basically calling Solas out for who he really is

I also wonder if given enough time, a quizzie who drinks from the Well will finally recognize him? No wonder he thinks it's such a bad idea! Next time I romance Solas, I think I'll have her drink and then dump him.

[Nightingale]

Spoiler

From what I understand, Flemeth gave her power to Solas/Solas took her power. Meaning Inky would no longer be bound to her. Would that mean she's bound to him now? Oh, how very awkward!

 

That leaves Morrigan in an interesting place, too. Especially with OGB, which I believe is what Flemeth put into the Eluvian right before Solas showed up? I'm mostly just hoping we get some sort of resolution here.

Thanks! I agree, all the dragons are beautiful but her colours are possibly my favourite. Greater Mistral will be next; I think she's really pretty too 

I think electrifying mucky water and seeing if it sets one's clothes on fire would qualify, too, no? 

 

Finally, while fighting some Venatori in front of the temple, Trev had the slight issue where he couldn’t use any area attacks. Every time he tried to aim a barrier, it went on the ceiling instead of the floor... That always makes the fighting a little tricky.  

 

If there's ground above you, that does tend to happen. Try standing off to the side or using tac cam and locking on to your targets. If that doesn't work, there's always jumping around and running in circles until you or the enemy is dead 

 

Edit to add the spoiler. Sorry! One day, I will remember everything before posting and won't need to edit. Today is evidently not that day

[NaclynE]

I swear I am a few pages behind everyone. Man. I always seem to miss good subjects when I post. Lol.

 

Anyhoo...Honestly I started playing BATTLEFIELD HARDLINE on my PS 3. Frankly it's my first actual BATTLEFIELD game since I only played the 3 BETA and touched 4 at a friends house on the PS 4. I honestly kind of prefer COD over BATTLEFIELD but I am doing ok as a newbie (well I guess everyones a newbie since it came out this week. Lol). I just dinged LVL 12 on it and am happy with my builds atm.

 

If anyone hits the "awwwwww.....What about DAI?" button here don't fret I am still playing DAI.

 

I hit up Chasimess again and was very sceptical on taking the fort in Crestwood because I remember finding a secret route that allows you to appear from a well but I cannot remember where it is so I had Iron Bull bust down the front door (literally. i had him use the BULL'S CHARGE attack). Surprisingly it was almost a cake walk. i funneled the two armored mabari then stealth attacked the archer on the roof top then sacked everyone else. division two was pretty easy as well as division three with the reinforcements. I had a semi problem with the boss group but after resupplying (when I noticed after the fact. d'oh) I pwned the guy and his last cronie which I wounded before I had Solas panic in horror and run. I took the fort and grabbed a few quests there. I started up the Meadows and met the one rebel leader guy

Spoiler

(Who actually a noble. DRAGON'S KEEP choice)

I kind of did some killing there down but didn't complete anything interesting. I did kill the assassin leaders in Crestwood but only need the plant ingredients in CRESTWOOD but don't remember which location has them. I had a couple amusing things happen to Chasimess too.

 

1:

(Inq's bedroom. Iron bull sits in room)

Iron Bull: "So since we have been around and with all the flirting I guess you want to ride the bull"

Chasimess: "No of course not!"

Iron Bull: "Ok." *smiles then leaves the room.*

 

Lol. I wound up blowing my ability to romance Iron Bull. Lol.

 

2:

 

Blackwall: "Hey I hear from Sera that you like spirits"

Solas: *Sigh* "I suppose you want to ask something offensive that she wanted you to ask me"

Blackwall: "No I was just wondering. Have you ever..."

Solas: "No I haven't"

Blackwall: *Chuckles* "No it's ok you can tell me. It is normal for you to-"

Solas: "I frankly don't like where this is going and this is becoming very childish with these questions."

Blackwall: "No *chuckles* I was just wondering since you spend a-lot of time in the fade I was just wondering if there ever was a spirit that fit your fancy."

Solas: "a**"

Blackwall: (Laughs) "Now look who's twelve."

 

Lol. I never had this discussion happen before. this was way to funny.

 

 

Post Script from Alexius

 

"Well the operation that required 25:34 is done. It turned out I created a 'enhanced cooldown amulet. I hope the inquisitor is happy with this thing so she can go kill people like crazy I guess. mean time....*sigh* I guess I'll continue doing magic research. Also i pray she tells Fiona to shut the hell up about keeping me alive being possibly a mistake."

 

"I suppose the reason why I am writing these posts scripts is because Draven Vollsa had me executed which kind of hurt Dorian's feelings and Vyre Dite made me tranquil which really made Dorian mad. I suppose Chasimess is more merciful and sees how I can benefit being alive than being dead or made tranquil."

[Melbella]

Jaega recruited the Templars. Ser Barris survived. She also met a strange person, eh...spirit? named Cole. Whatever he is, he helped her fight off the envy demon trying to be her. He was a very poor imitation, to say the least. And, no stick figure bug this time, so she only had to fight him the one time.

 

Now she's contemplating what to do while waiting for the Templars to get settled in Haven. Close the last rift on the Storm Coast (the one hiding behind gobs of spiders and darkspawn)? Look for some old temple in the Oasis? Attempt to take on Frosty before being able to stock up on fire resistance tonics? Recruit Vivienne? Actually, I think she really just wants a nap.

[kalasaurus]

Bah, I can't decide who to romance on my mage Trevelyan... Sera, Josephine, Iron Bull, Cullen or Blackwall?  She's flirted with everyone she could so far, but now she must come to a decision since she's arrived at Skyhold XD ...  I've already tried the Cullen and Blackwall romances, but I wouldn't mind trying them again.  I used to not like Sera's character, but she's started to grow on me a bit.  Iron Bull sounds... interesting.  And Josephine's romance sounds kind of cute.

 

Hmm... 

[Excella Gionne]

Is it just me or the choices in this game are a lot more heavy and they're not as passive as Mass Effect's?

[SporkFu]

Also wonderful? Cirwen  Great job, I think she's fantastic!

Yay, magequisition! I love her eyes, Spork (or pork?), very vivid and lively. 

Thank you, both I'm quite happy with how Cirwen turned out. When I first started I actually almost recreated my first Lavellan, like 85% identical but that 15% was just enough to make me not like her, heh. So I tried to do something totally different and it worked.

 

And i just want to echo (kinda): Great screenies from both of you  

 

Is it just me or the choices in this game are a lot more heavy and they're not as passive as Mass Effect's?

You certainly seem to get a lot more of a reaction from the party members for sure.

[Nightingale]

I suppose it depends what kind of character they are, but Josephine's one of my favourite romances this time around  Sera's is fun (and adds a bit more depth to her character arc if you keep up with banter and her journal), Cassandra's is sweet (or bittersweet, if you make her Divine), Bull's is surprisingly well done from what I've heard (I've yet to try it) and, uh, I never actually finished my Blackwall romance so I can't really recommend anything based on that   I keep getting distracted by the ladies...

 

Apologies, I'm sure you've said, but who did you romance Cullen with? A mage Trevelyan could be quite interesting, if you want to romance him again.

I romanced Cullen with a rogue Lavellan.   A mage Trevelyan could be interesting, since she was from the Circle.  I'll try to put off the decision a bit longer and see how long she can flirt with everyone (she's a flirty type of person... ).  I'm going cross Blackwall off the list first because he gets way too serious about everything too soon, and it's not in her personality.

[Nightingale]

Heh, I do the same thing far too often - flirt, then don't get into anything for far too long  I'm between Here Lies the Abyss and Halamshiral right now and my little Lavellan has managed to flirt with Harding, Sera, Josie, Blackwall, Cullen, Cassandra and I think Solas once or twice...and I still haven't "locked in" with anybody yet. I'm probably not in a good position to give advice 

 

Anyway, I think Cullen has additional dialogue if you're a mage (don't hold me to this, I don't know for certain), so he or Sera gets my vote.

Having just finished the Blackwall romance, I can say it's pretty well done. The 'conflict' moments, the love scenes, all good. But I agree, getting in with him kinda precludes flirting with anyone else pretty quickly. Flirt options still come up sometimes, though. Dofni still had a lot of chances to flirt with Sera later on, maybe even after that scene in Val Royeaux. 

[Melbella]

Yes, he does. Not sure if it's actually extra, but it is definitely different than with a non-mage, especially the convo after "Perseverance." Next time I romance Cullen I have to side with the mages though (and try to remember to have my imported Warden be Amell )

 

Sidenote: I figured out my new PS does have a four pin connector (2 of them, actually, disguised as an 8 pin connector ). Unfortunately, it didn't fix the sparkles problem so it looks like I need to replace the video card instead. Stupid machine!
