My first playthrough was an elf/mage with Cullen romance. I changed to human next (Lalaith was my second, I've shown her here before) and found human suited me a lot better.
In most games I'm human too, strangely enough the race that really worked for me in WoW was draenei
Hiya Dieb!
Why hello there, wonderful.
She'll finish her nightmare run and stick around for any future DLC's.
On emotional connections to the character and the romance (if any). There's a reason my human mage x Cullen playthrough is my most successful (completed DAI a few times with that character race/class and romance), it's the only one I can get engaged with while playing.
Yeah pretty much. I love all my equipment, as well as my party's equipment too much. And many of those schematics were random drops I'm afraid never to see again.
What this game would really need is a NG+ mechanic. I mean, you're spending such a huge amount of time just amassing resources, and even playing with a completely different character only changes one out of ten peoples' required loadout. One way or the other, you're going to do the exact same, plot-unrelated busywork again - and as forgiving as I am, it is busywork.
Dr Pepper Float soda plus vanilla ice cream is a little redundant (because now it's a Dr Pepper Float Float), but it is so smooth. Cabot, keep 'em coming.
...and is that what you'd call a healthy nutrition?

heh same for me on the WoW part. Draenei was the only one I could tolerate.

NG+ would be great, I wouldn't have to keep all these cc slider pics just for mroe stuff to do with my fav character if that were the case.. lol. Yeah I'm attached to my character's back story (minor as the game gives I have my own too), personality, choices, LI and her looks.. well her eyes..

I agree. By the way, why not to save the game right after CC and replay from there?
What do you think about Nier/Drakengard 3+ PT-system?

What do you think about Nier/Drakengard 3+ PT-system?
part 1: I would get too confused of all the save files connected to the one characetr 
part 2: I've only played Nier and found it's multiple playthrough thing great. Getting different endings I believe it was focused on from memory? Monsters didn't get hugely powerful etc. Been a while since I played though, may be confusing that system with another game.

Yeah pretty much.
See, I'm not methodical about it, but I do want to experience all the content myself. It makes the story feel more real, and it's just not the same watching someone else's character on YouTube.
So I create various characters to play through the outcomes that I want to accomplish. They all feel real to me, and they all have their own dreams and interests and motives. Of course, I have some characters that I prefer over others, but each playthrough is intense and satisfying.

We'll make a plaque with it and hang it in the new tavern. Reminds me I need to make a new plaque for this one:
Well all tried to run but only made it as far as the door.

I keep trying to try out all the content myself, I won't give up, yet. I also can't watch youtube vids about it, feels odd. Like part of a scene or two watching, that's fine but not all the stuff.

I'd almost be more okay with it if someone linked up all their cutscenes and made it into an Inquisition movie.
For me it's the watching just one scene. Makes me feel like a voyeur.

Some people on youtube have done this already, but remembering all the different dialogue and this or that choices, it's a bit hard to find them interesting. For me anyway. i'm working on my own DAi movies for personal use currently 
For me my first and blind playthrough is always my canon, and my character and LI the ones I get the most attached with.
I've made new playthoughs to experience the content I've missed, and while it doesn't feel the same I still enjoy them.
I'm completely the opposite! I create an infinite amount of "sketches" of what is going to be my canon. For example, before having the ability to delete characters in the keep I had 50 (yes 50) versions of Malcolm, the DW rogue with whom I finished my "Hard" playthrough. Now, he was not my canon yet! Edmund (my current Nightmare PT and the one in my avatar) seems to be finally "the one". If that is the case, and I finish everything that is around in DAI at the moment (I'm an obsessive completionist) I will have him sitting waiting for a DLC (hopefully a sequel), I'm not interested in replaying the game after I complete my canon PT to experience other romances, or outcomes in the game, not even a different class. That was what I did with the other 50 sketches.
Also, I'm an avid roleplayer (even in a Single Player setting) and spend a lot of time "outside" the game tinkering on him, imagining what would have been happening while I'm not "seeing" him (playing). It is kind of crazy.
Oddly, the fact that DAI has so much "menial" tasks to do, instead of being a waste of time for me, it is something that I enjoy, precisely because amounts in game to the type of activities that otherwise I would imagine he would be doing when I am not "looking".
That is also working against me since otherwise I would be pouring some of that tinkering in FF, something that has yet to happen in the DA series (I have FF written for every single RPG I've played).

Dude, you are hardcore.
I mean, I have back stories for every character ever, but I don't really flesh them out like that.
"Wait, all of it? Again?"
-"Yes."
"Do I at least get to keep my hat?"
-"No."
"Alright."
P.S.: I realized my CC phone pictures have been trying to tell me something all along, as I browsed to delete them.
My Kyrrah story is.. pretty well fleshed out, I know her like I know myself even though she's very different then I.

Aww.. he has an awesome hat too. You'll get him a new one right?

Whatever the Inquisition thinks it has been formed for, this is basically it.

Awesome clothes and an even more amazing hat? works for me!

Most of them don't get too far though, in average in DAI I have gone to the drawing board and discarded the "sketch" around the time they are facing Corypheus in Haven. But it has given me enough time to know whether I like or not how to play it (the class, for example, some general choices, etc.)

I had, before we could delete them, 72 Inquisitors in the Keep. Almost 60 of them were very similar. Barely any made it past Val Royeaux (first visit) lol.
My Kyrrah story is.. pretty well fleshed out, I know her like I know myself even though she's very different then I.
I more understand my characters personalities than their pasts. I know exactly why they'll make certain choices, but I don't necessarily think about their families or prior experiences unless dialogue prompts it.

Ah, I play to the end when I create a new character (unless I toss them due to CC mistakes). But yeah I've 8 full playthroughs planned and I'm on number 6.

For me to understand why specific choices would be made by Kyrrah I felt I needed to 'know' some of her history. I take the dialogue conversation choices as a base foundation, and add a bit more to them like a mini-scenario to each dialogue choice that is about her past, family etc. It's not a from birth kind of thing though, just bits and pieces to make her more.
