thats one thing i picked up on the special edition disk or from somewhere, BioWare actully says they got the stunt guys from 300 to come in and get motion captured for some of the sword play, i knew i had saw some of those moves somewhere, especially the shield wall one, but still my favirote moment was stabbing the mother in the face, Achillies style, and this actuly fits as my PC is called Achillies ^_^

I don't think the epilogue about her never remarrying would be icky, but the way it's phrased seemed to purposely make you think it was going to be about Cailan and then *boom*. Creepy daddy issues.


I think you are reading waaaay too much into that. From what little I have read of psychology it's not that uncommon for women to conciously or unconciously look at their fathers for models on how men should be, without this translating into anything like sexual feelings towards their fathers. Loghain wasn't a common man so I'm sure she would have daddy issues, just not creepy ones.


I was actually joking (well, half joking, since I think the epilogue is a bit deliberate). Anora hero-worships her father, but I do not think she has any psychosexual hang-ups because of this.

The scene where you abbandon Amaranthine and set it on fire was pretty epic.

Setting fire to Amaranthine :crying: 

That totally "hardened" Morien. No mercy for any darkspawn afterwards..

If there was a complex of any sort with her you'd think it'd be one we cause by beheading the guy right in front of her face.


True.


That was a terrible scene. Why would it not have been handled like a regular execution. Not performed on the spot right there. I thought that was pretty silly.  Makes it hard for me not to save Loghain.  Especially since the character I did it with is a dwarf. "Can you bend down Logain? Please? I really just want to get your neck, I'd rather not spray your brains over the landsmeet."  Just silly.

ROFL I can just picture a cute lil dwarf kinda crooking her finger at him as if to whisper in his ear for that too!

Sparta kicking Steafan into the lava pit. Nice touch, Bioware.


I have to agree - that was almost as awesome as some of Mass Effect 2's renegade interrupts. Just wish there was more of this stuff, and that your companions weren't as offended by it...

This. I thought I'd just stab him with a dagger, but that kick the cage into the lava had definitely surprised me. I loved my warden peering down to see if he was dead, heh. Disapproval from the whole group. *reload* =p


Really the whole group, only Sigrun was disappointed and she was the one who called him a thief. I thought Anders would say something but he kept quiet.

I had Justice (-5), Sigrun (-5), and Nathaniel (-1). Justice had a cutscene just as I was about to do the kick: "What are you doing?!"

The Mother kill was indeed awesome. However, the only thing that kept running through my mind when my character was walking away was: 'Hey! Why am I walking away from my sword? That's a great sword, an awesome sword, a valuable sword, a sword that has saved my life countless time, and I'm leaving it stuck in her corpse like that? Nooo, go back you wasteful moron!' :lol:

Nah, I think it was just an extra prop sword (like the prop sword that was used to kill the Archdemon or the one that was used to behead Logain).  My two-handed sword-wielding warrior apparently decided to take the time to sheathe Vigilance (the two-handed variant) to finish The Mother off with a one-handed blade, just to look cool ^_^

Loghain's epic pillar lean.



I don't need the epilogue spelled out for me; my HNF vanished... to Orlais so she could hit that. >.>

I don't know if it did this for anybody else, but I got the stabbing scene twice. It was replayed after the epilogue. So I stabbed her 4 times!!!!1!!!

That didn't happen with me, but there have been a bunch of other people who've had that happen. My screen blacks out in the middle of the conversation with the Architect though.

1 of the funniest scenes for me was Oghren / Mihrai / Anders



"Well if it isnt the recruit with the great rack"

"Truely a prize for the wardens"

*Anders stares at Mihari's *******



So subtle but full of lulz

Ooooo, you mean non-melee characters actually get a cool death-blow animation, too?!  Maybe my mage in waiting needs to be my next character up?  Or maybe my archer-in-waiting?  Decisions, decisions...

Yeah, I was expecting a standard melee death blow animation, and was pleasantly surprised when my mage sheathed Vigilance and instead blasted the Mother with elemental goodness, and by goodness I mean magical fury.  That was quite awesome.  Definitely one of the coolest scenes in Awakening.

Seconded, and add the smile (have we ever actually *seen* one of those? I think this might be the first!)

Not really a scene, but i ran into some random rat in a corner of a room at the inn and it frickin exploded into a huge mass of blood and guts.

A total wtf-epic moment. :lol:

The randomly exploding ferrets and monsters. :lol: Also, Oghren's opening when you see him. He grins, waves, and goes back to slaughtering darkspawn. It's hilarious.

Someone needs to post the lava Steafan kick on youtube. Seriously. I didn't play through on a character that would actually do that. I want to see it something awful now.

I absolutely second Roundcrow and Goofygoff: Loghain's sexyness while leaning to a pillar....Loghain's smile too. That was hot!

Next chapter: Run to Orlais to help Loghain as some weird things are happening there!

The worst of Awakening: Loghain's vanishing....
