Yeah, there are parts of the Hinterlands where you meant to return later. Many of the areas are set up like that.

Being a warrior is the way to go!

It's funny how even as I was actively trying to leave the Hinterlands I kept getting sucked into side quests. "I'll just grab a few Drakestone before I go..." Finally made it back to Haven, where I promptly spent 45 minutes fiddling with smith crafting a new dagger for Wallace (which I named the Drake Fang - much cooler than the name the game suggested) and a new shield for Cassandra (Summer's Tower). Apparently she's now sporting a shade of pink, looks good on her. I chatted up my party members for a bit. Their stories are already engaging, even though they are reluctant to share much with the new Inquisitor. Hopped over Val Royeuax (I'm going to misspell this every time I type it). That went well... The chantry cleric who wasn't important enough to be invited to the Conclave stated yelling at me from her little stage before being knocked out by seeker Lucious. Then the Mage leader approached me in an alley. It appears I'll have a decision to make when I get back to Haven. Vivianne's now a part of the team, and seems to be a Rock Star. I'm definitely adding her to the lineup. I picked up Sera as well. She seems...well let's just say I'm suspicious she's tried a bit too much of the herbs I'm constantly collecting. The team is growing. My power and influence is growing. It feels as if things are about to take off.

Wallace has recruited Iron Bull and Blackwall to the Inquisition. I'm suffering from a major case of wanting to include ALL of my companions in the party. They're all so interesting. Looks like I need one more power point to visit the Templars. Let's go smash a rift.

Even if you're going to recruit the Templars, you may wish to visit Fiona in Redcliff and hear out the mages.  You'll learn some unusual stuff about the story, and meet someone interesting.  It won't affect your ability to get the Templars, either.

Thanks for this. I was curious to go see Redcliff and how the mages were faring, but was afraid that would lock me into a choice. Wallace is a fairly noble and open-minded chap, but the crazy-mage air from Kirkwall is hard to forget! (at least for this character)

Don't worry, you can only lock in the choice at the wartable after hearing Fiona out. Both the Templar and Mage missions lock in at the wartable.

I played short stent last night. This game gives me more of an urge to swap out party members to experiences their banter. None of them feels "weak" at this point, all are very capable of defending themselves and dishing out a fair amount of damage, this even prior to specializations. I'm enjoying the variety, more so than in I and II.

Wallace made it to Redcliffe last night. The time warp/no one having any idea he was coming was a bit strange. (For me it was odd seeing the windmill from DAO crumbling and forgotten, and it's only been a few weeks since I played the game. I'm guessing it pulled heartstrings for those of you who had years between seeing it for the first time and then in this game). He quickly confronted the tanner and turned her into an agent. He's got his eyes on the deft hands/lock picking perk and building towards that. Tons of missions available in Redcliffe Village, and I ignored all of them for now. Wallace and the crew (Cassandra, Vivienne, and Solas) were flabbergasted that Fiona and the mages had indentured themselves to the Tevinter Magister. Really? The guy exudes shadiness down to the weird robe he was wearing. Vivenne practically yelled, "You guys are making mages look like fools!" Of course he's up to something, bending time and all so he and his Tevinter Sumpremacist can get at Wallace for some reason. We met Dorian (second sweet stache on the party), who I'm guessing will catch up with us later. Back at the war table Wallace sent his agents out on missions, then made the decision to approach the Templars instead of the Mages. It was a tough choice, as he knows they are both in the wrong here. Obviously there is scandal within the Templar ranks as well, and obviously there are good mages. But he is from the Free Marches, and the idea that at any point a mage can go blood magic/abomination/spirit possessed crazy...it just seems as if a strong (and hopefully honorable) Templar order is going to be necessary to watch out for that. He by no means is a fan of annulment, tranquility, or any of those extreme measures. For Wallace, who believes Andraste chose him for this role, his ideal would be empowering Circles, with happy mages coexisting beside their "protector" Templars, not their "jailors". Anyway, he made the decision to pursue the Templar Order with the Orlesian nobles (the most annoying of which now is laying in the castle with a friggin' arrow in his forehead.). I'm rolling with Cassandra (she'll always be along as Wallace is hopelessly smitten already), Iron Bull, and Solas for this mission. We'll pick up with seeing what the heck is going on with these Templars soon.

Me thinks one of the divine endings is going to disappoint you

Tsk tsk!  Spoilers!  (But yes, I was thinking the same thing.)

[sjsharp2011]

Tha tydepends on what choices he makes in the game of course

[oletreebark]

I finished Champions of the Just. Wallace could tell something was off with the Lord Seeker, but was surprised to find red lyrium taint and demon possession to be the problem. Kids these days! He was reassured by the strong pocket of noble Templars remaining and was able to clear out the red Templars an destroy the Envy Demon (DW is great, but I have to remember to weave in and out of battle. When I find myself trying to fight like a warrior the potion chugging commences!). The Demon (Fade?) sequence was mercifully short. I feared a repeat of the Circle Fade sequence from DAO when it began. I would have had palpitations had I seen a series of mouse holes... In the end Wallace recruited the Templars as partners, believing himself to be the Herald of Andraste. This pleased Cassandra and Blackwall (and surprisingly Iron Bull and Vivienne). Solas was not so much a fan. I've a feeling he and Wallace may not end up fast friends. Now we are back at Haven. I need to sort through equipment, craft upgrades, and touch base with the crew. Cole is a wild card. Wallace kept him around due to his help with the Envy Demon. It was great when he appeared on the war table and everyone flipped out. Ha!

Did op play the legacy dlc?

Yes.

...and I was growing attached to Haven! Wallace and the crew ventured back to the Hinterlands to wrap up a few quests, plant the last camp, and take out a few bears before taking on the breach (I wanted to be level 9 since the recommended minimum level was 8). He then spent an hour fiddling with equipment and talking with all of his companions. Cassandra is very thrown off by his flirting. I loved that he just laughed at her awkwardness. Started the quest, and my mouth fell open as he closed the breach. So much build up, I was shocked it happened so early into the game! Great misdirection play by the writers. Of course a massive army led by the Elder One then marches on Haven. Easy enough to cause an avalanche giving us all another short lived thrill of victory. Enter the dragon. Cullen's quote was great "At this point we'll at least make them work for it!" I survived the onslaught with only Wallace and Cassandra standing. Fiona's barrier caused me a bit of trouble, kept her alive longer than I'd liked. I need to remember to keep Solas and Sera spaced out and back from the action. Now I am all alone and underground! The Elder One looked remarkably similar to the bad guy from Legacy. The story has gone in a direction I wasn't expecting...

[Rascoth]

The Elder One looked remarkably similar to the bad guy from Legacy.

It's the same guy.

[oletreebark]

It's the same guy.

Well that explains the similarity, ha!

[sjsharp2011]

Well that explains the similarity, ha!

It is the asme gyu he survived his encounter with Hawke and is now the big bad you have to stop

[dragonflight288]

Well that explains the similarity, ha!

 

Or we are dealing with his less evil twin.

 

Actually, yes, it's the same guy. Corypheus. Don't worry, you'll find a new base that I think you'll love.

[thesuperdarkone2]

I'm wondering, if you have a spare save, would you mind trying out the Mage mission because in interested to see your reactions to it

[thats1evildude]

Yeah, Corypheus came back. You'll see how later.

[oletreebark]

Sky Hold. Pretty sweet set up for the Inquisition, I must say. The place is huge. I've only explored a small corner! I wondered whether Hawke would make an appearance (managed to make him look somewhat like Wylds Hawke). Now to explore our castle in the sky and touch base with the crew (always takes awhile).

[Andraste_Reborn]

It's so big that it took me until my fourth playthrough to find the kitchen *facepalm*.

I don't know how many months it took me to have a clear grasp on how to reach Vivienne in Skyhold.

I opened many many door.

After I was done with Vivienne and patting myself on the back , I then realised I was still confused about how to reach Skyhold gardens to find Mother Giselle.

[bzombo]

I suggest you play as a dual wielding warrior since you will never have the chance in any other game to play as a dual wielding warrior. It's a lot of fun.
