You know, those little things that once you notice you can't UNnotice.  Like ever.  It's with you until the day you die.

 

For example:

 

The voice overs in the cut scenes before and after a mission.  I cannot, ever, look at Josephine the same way again.  Why?  Because of her voice.  Why?  Because the voice actress goes out of her way to accentuate the rolling "R" in every word she says.  Seriously, next time you get a Josie intro listen to it.  REALLY listen to it and tell me that's not infuriating.

 

Or

 

If you fail and it's a Leliana voice over.  It's like the audible version of Return of the King ending.  There are too many dramatic pauses.  You expect it to end but then she says something else.  Like, and I'm paraphrasing here:

 

"Our agents failed."

 

<pause>

 

"We've heard no word"

 

<pause>

 

"We will recover."

 

<Pause>

 

"I'm sure of it."

 

<pause>

 

Or how the Alchemist's "ember" armor is pure ****ing white while the "smoke" costume is stark red.  It's this kind of stuff that shifts my OCD to 11.  So what have you guys noticed that... just... drives... you... nuts?

There's this corpse of a woman in the Orlesian Chateau

I see her almost every time the map comes up

I try to point it out the my teammates but they never notice

Who is this woman

What did she do to deserve this!?

Josephine's voice actor was familiar enough with a proper Spanish accept to get rolling her R's and that lisp (a linguist friend called it "overusing the tongue"), but you can tell she is not native Spain by any stretch. It's a common trait in actors attempting accents not native to them to go a bit overboard. Brad Pitt in The Devil's Own was another prime example. Although, every time I see the word particularly now, I "hear" it in her Joe's voice.

 

And Liliana with "work to further the Inquisition's cooz". The accent was over-inflected on that specific word compared to the rest of everything she says. Drives me crazy.

Now I gotta find her. She in a compromising position?

This doesn't really annoy me, but whenever I'm fighting the Venatori Commander in melee, I can't help but notice that when she summons her Barrier, her eyes bug out of her head.  It's so goofy-looking that it has to be a glitch or animation issue.  The thing is, I first noticed this when the devs did their first complete MP run on Twitch, so it has been around since before launch.  Wonder if the devs have even noticed this...

Your avatar perfectly represents our frustration over these things as well. :lol:

 

After one of the MP patches, the percentage of pots that reliably break apart seem to have gone up, but there are still some pots that will not break no matter what.

Or they magically regenerate, despite a Level 17 Assassin, Warrior and Mage attacking it all at once. :blink:

I'm reaching a point where I want friendly fire on, so that I can turn around and use a hammer to start beating the next player to spam "Over Here!" 18 times in a row.

What's everyones problem with the pots? Just walk up to them target them and hold the attack button, it either breaks properly on the first attack or it glitchs and the second attack "fixes" the glitch (you have to hit it while its invisible) or just use an ability. Number one cause of pots glithching is Mages attacking them from range STOP doing that s***. They never glitch if you walk right up to them before attacking as a Mage.

the one person who decides that while the rest of the team are fighting whoever in a treasure room, that they don't have time for that nonsense and teleport everyone to the next area. happened to me for like the 10th time tonight and as i was about to pop open the menu to leave team, the game crashed. Almost as if my xbox was like.. i understand.. go have a coffee.

This has happened to me multiple times as I was clicking to pick up the gold from the chest, then bam, teleported to the next area.  I was a tad salty.

That appears to be a common thing in pugs. There must be some hidden reason behind this as way too many people do that.

The way I see it, those people have misunderstood the goal of this game. As far as I'm concerned, money is the key goal, unless you have every item you might covet. Having fun and getting XP is just something that happens along the way of making that buck.

I believe it must have something to do with people wanting higher kill streak, or when opening Stage doors too early, they want to do things quickly or they just didnt notice that treasure room that he just passed, that a character actually said was there, and is marked on the map with a questionmark. Especially annoying when the room is an empty, not trapped treasure room.

Yesterday I played a pug with a level 18-19 AW who I noticed proceeded to leave everyone to get those highly important kills for himself. Well, I'm on my Katari so I decided that I'm going to ruin the fun for him just because he's an *******, so I rushed just as much as he did, and got as many kills as I could. I ended up scoring twice the amount of XP as he did and got almost every kill. I hope I ruined his fun. Unfortunatly we probably ruined two other guys' fun aswell - but I hope I taught him a lesson.

People running ahead and not paying attention to treasure rooms (even though you know it is safe) really arent teamplayers and lack patience, both highly rated traits in my book.

Ya'll know who you are.

I thought maybe they just had a few extra drinks as it is holiday season and stuff and that it would get back to normal on Monday.
