Can only like once. Hits again three times anyways, expecting different result.

 

You do that too?

Okay, so here's a weird thing:

 

I love Star Wars. When I was young, watching trailers for upcoming movies and getting all psyched in discussion forums wasn't a thing, obviously. Movies came out. Suddenly, they were written in lights outside a theatre, and you would watch them.

 

Once more: I love Star Wars. However, watching trailer after trailer about it, reading online articles and twitter feeds of actors in excitement... that just... doesn't belong to Star Wars for me. That's new, forgettable modern movie stuff. You do that with the next Will Ferrel comedy, or a new Wachovskis movie.

 

That's to say, I have NOT watched any of the trailers. Not because I don't care for them, or think they should not be made, and weirdly enough, not even to avoid spoilers. It's because I need to experience a new Star Wars movie the "old fashioned" way. Did the same thing with the prequel trilogy (which I didn't hate), but then again, the internet was exactly as omnipresent as it is now. I don't want to know anything about the movie until I watch the whole thing. Also never bothered to watch making-ofs of the original trilogy, because that would ruin the magic reciprocatively.

 

 

TL;DR I'm weird.

Hey folks!

So uh, Roly... you met that facial tattoo kid in the Flemeth thread?

 

 

He once called me a moron and a strawman for arguing that insulting developers is never justified. Just so you can assess how many more minutes of your lifetime you wanna spend typing things for him to ****** all over.

Ahahahaha that poster has always been...well, yeah. 
Have I ever told you I read all your posts in Idris Elba's voice? 

 

Eh... the only part that makes me want to see it is the return of Harrison Ford as Han Solo.

Same. Everyone is like "OMFG STERWERS TERLER IT'S AMAZING I NEEDS IT" and I'm sitting here going "...Meh. Oh Han Solo. That should be fun. *drink* I have a friend who is a major Star Wars nut so I enjoy giving him very unenthusiastic reactions to all this. 

Hype away, my Star Wars fan friends. Hype away.

Yeah, the guy at the game store today was saying "Oh man it's so good! You HAVE to watch it!" and I have and I just don't get why he, along with everyone else, is so hyped for it.

I can give the text of the developer notes, and people are willing to use that as a base because of how confusing that post epilogue scene. It answers some questions for people, and right now that is all we have. Wish people would understand dev notes are not canon and subject to change at the whims of the devs as the story needs.

Spoiler

Select all the text in that long line and you get this:

"This is Flemeth from the previous two games. In this game, Flemeth's story comes to a head-- she knew that Solas would summon her, and that he would need to steal her power to further his plans. She knew that because they are both elven gods... yet Solas has slept for a thousand years an his power dwindled, while she was killed long ago and a spark escaped from her into the body she now holds. She has nurtured that spark, and knew that Solas would need it. He was once her oldest friend, but she knows that in his drive to restore the elven people he will kill anyone--even her. She intends to let him have the power, so long as she can pass the essence of her god-hood onto Morrigan, a gift Flemeth had always planned for her daughter yet one Morrigan misunderstood as hostile possession."

It is still very open to interpretation, and until we get more info in DLC as to "WTF just happened", it will remain that way.

Good morning, my dear DQ...

 

 

After coffee:

 

 

There's a new new Star Wars trailer?

[Lynroy: Final Edition]

Looks like people are still finding out about it!

Mission accomplished then. But just to burst your bubble right there, he works out more than I do.

 

@Dieb:  I know I'm kinda being a jackass in that thread, albeit unintentionally.  Thing is, I would have at least been willing to read this file he keeps going on about, but when I asked for it's location, he just responded with some glib "so you haven't even read it" which I figured was alread obvious from my previous responses, so *shrug.*  I just had to assume from his response that -he- hasn't even read it and is just parroting what others have said about some file somewhere.

 

Not really, you're not.

 

It doesn't matter what value his or your information has, it's the general air in which he talks down to everybody. Save us the "snarky science guy in a nerd forum" persona, we've all been around the cyberspace block for a while.

I knew it was too subtle
Paragon sent 1 single 500lb burger, not 500 single burgers. Hope the Crows don't mind!

Every time they post I wonder "what's up your bum, dude?" *drink*

Need to go pick up some pork shoulder for dinner later. Don't burn the place down without me.

Oh but Roy, that still does in no way prove that what happened wasn't exactly what Flemeth wanted to happened. Not trying to continue the debate here -and you know I love both Solas and Flemeth, so this isn't about "who's cooler"- but if anything, the very last sentence strongly hints that it was in fact not surprising for Flemeth what he did. And she's always prepared.

 

Also, and that's just ol' Hawke-sibling-lovin, Sera-tutorin', family man me: I love BioWare for the wonderful motherly love path they ended up taking for Flemeth. Not kidding.

 

Thanks for posting this anyways, I was a little worried for a moment that ominous file flatout said stuff like "Cutscene, Solas kills Flemeth like a sucker. Next scene..."

Okay, I've come across this a couple of times in the BSN now but I don't get why people think the Dalish are based on the Welsh - is it due to the accent?  As far as I recall most of the Dalish have Irish accents.  I can't remember much about Origins but certainly DA2 and Inquisition elves did.  I'm not Irish but I recognise the accent well enough by now.   *Drinks in confusion*

Is it Dalish=Brythonic resisters vs Human/Saxon invaders leading to a clanishness/suspicion of outsiders/woodsy types and let's not forget the Welsh were historically well versed in the long-bow as are the Dalish.

 

No that doesn't make a lot of sense to me either. Like Roly I fear I have nothing. Let's go with the Whovian space time rift.

It is entirely based on people interpreting their accents to be mostly Welsh in DA2. A lot of people wanted a fifth Welsh voice to use for Dalish Inquisitors because after DA2 all Dalish are supposed to have Welsh or Irish accents? *drink* People are strange.

Gareth David-Lloyd (Solas) and Eve Myles (Merrill) are Welsh. Ianto and Gwen are Torchwood elf spies. 

 

I thought maybe Eve Myles was putting on an Irish accent with Merrill's voice, though I'm neither Welsh nor Irish. *shrugs*

Well, there's pork and BBQ sauce and Dr Pepper involved.

*shrugs* I liked it....and I am not even....well I was a big Star Wars fan, haven't been in years really.
