My dear Dale, you have to answer a question for me: how did you manage to play Dragon Age for 15 hours without encountering any sort of humour? 
Basically, anything that has Sten and Shale in it is fricking hilarious. XD
Hi Nessaya,
Since I'm a newbee on this game -- I need veterans like you (and Mousestalker) to help me out with fun stuff to do. I love game CONTRIBUTORS like you suggesting neat things to see & do (as opposed to bratty sour-grape juveniles that I have to put on my ignore list). On that point, that's why I'm over here on the Origin forums instead of Steam forums (no ignore list there).
I don't even know of these two characters. I'm making a note now -- to find & recruit them on the next playthrough. My crew is Leliana (LI), Alistair (needs spanking), & Morrigan (ice queen). Yes -- I remember there was a giant in a cage soon in the game -- I guess that was Sten. I'm playing the "extended cut" so maybe the 2nd character (Shale) will be there -- if I can find him.
I'm nearing the end of 2nd playthrough now. I implemented lots of Nexus mission mods & enjoying the ride. Pints & Quarts was fun -- especially the "castle conspiracy" (who done it).
On my first playthrough I implemented these mods which hosed up the game -- Morrigan would not (and could not) join the crew after talking with Flemeth so I decided to implement the MISSION mods near the end.
I bought this game on Steam -- however there have been a couple places in the game (camp & forest where a guy got stabbed) for a DLC download from Origin. I'm wondering if having the main game in a Steam folder -- will it execute a DLC in the Origin folder.
Speaking of humor, there is a PUZZLE game so loaded with laughs -- it is rip-roaring funny "Sam & Max" which are detectives (dog & bunny). Some puzzles in Sam & Max are VERY difficult (for someone who has played Myst 1,2,3,4) Usually after I get the sh1t shot out of me, I like to alternate with a puzzle game like that or some adventure like "The Longest Journey" (excellent).
I look for every opportunity to laugh. Unless I get a gut-buster once a week -- well, it's a wasted week.
Thank you!!!!
