Other fun Dragon Age observations:
If someone asks you to find an animal, it is annoying as hell to find and escort back, but it will be alive
If someone asks you to find a person, they are dead. They are always dead.

I liked... maybe 5 things about Dragon Age Inquisition:
1. It looked pretty
2. Beach where you meet Iron Bull, swampy areas where everything is dark and lit by lanterns
3. The "save the mage" days of future past scenario (and hoped that this was the actual game and that everything preceding had merely been an ingenious prologue)
4. Cassandra is mai waifu
5. The ending and the stuff with Morrigan and her family
everything else was the worst ever, the gameplay was tedious, I killed way too many dogs that were also frustratingly tanky, dragons are kind of boring unless they're like 20 times the size as they are in the universe, the characters were all twits, the ethical dilemmas were all pretty dumb neither being particularly evocative nor sufficiently complex, I couldn't destroy dwarf society nor could I destroy the human political system (speaking of, did the king/queen do shit?)
oh, I did enjoy the obssession with masks of the Orlais and the nug of great price
I liked that I could play an MMO offline by myself like I've always dreamed
Like Phantasy Star Online.

- DAI had a good characterization, but lousy characters
- the war table was a terrible mechanic and should be cast into the flames of perdition
- cullen was such a shit character and had THE WORST ideas
- but the lore was spectacular and well-formed
- the combat was pretty great
- the dragons were impressive-looking, but tedious after the first fight, and completely unrelated to the story
- the crafting mechanic and gathering scheme can join the war table in the lake of fire
- the UI was pretty solid
It's (Re)Create a Film Scene Monday, oh how quickly time passes. Yep, create a short scene or reenact one. One rule: no human actors allowed. You can use dolls, pets, household objects, staplers, vegetables, toy cars, etc. Humans can acts as voice actors and manipulate objects, but that's it.
there's an albertson's near me liquidating its assets and they have makeup on sale for 60% off
so yes, I spent $50
I don't even care
also I bought lube and condoms and for the life of me I can't think of a good reason why I did that other than the fact it was super cheap
I preemptively did this (after discussing it with Querry, but weeks before we used them) and do not regret it
You'd be... surprised how fast stuff can change
:razz:
one can hope
That came out super weird. What I meant was that I went from like no real expectation to basically what I have now in a month and a half, so it's not like "I HAVE NO PROSPECTS I SHOULD NOT DO THIS" - you'd be surprised how rapidly situations like that change.

As long as it was a healthy relationship, I'd be very happy in that change
Witcher 3 basically has a few things that makes it superior to DA:I-
1)Overall story is fantastic. Choices do make a difference through the game.
2)I like having a non-blank space character in Geralt. It allows for these strong long term relationships to show.
3)Combat is decent but beating DA:I isn't hard here. I tend top play as Witchering as possible. Lets of prep and research which is fun to me.
It still requires the basic knowledge that don't try to do everything. Pick and choose your stories.

Good luck.
DA:I had Bioware's strengths which is individual characters and their stories not really the overall story and such.
I beat it once and played it about 50% another time and road the bull.
Still for me it goes DA:O>DA2=DA:I.
Though DA2 might squeak out over DA:I just for the fact you aren't some world savior.
not counting, you know, things I can order at the deli
although I did take a class in Advanced Deli Yiddish, where you learn how to say "kreplach" and "bialy" and "hamentashen"
no in DA2 you are the world fucker
you fuck up the entire world
world fucker, 1st class
so boring
so
boring

You are more just someone dragged into world fucking.
Really the world fucking happened before. You were just the last domino from decades of world fucking.
Dear you are a lovely person.
But for the life of me I have never been able to figure out where you find fun.
I didn't realize most of them were yiddish for a good portion of my life.
I can be a complete ass in yiddish. The yiddish my dad seems to use is to be angry or a jack ass.
As long as it was a healthy relationship, I'd be very happy in that change
I think I'm over shitty dynamics
Sometimes I worry about that, too
What a disappointing picture.
Should have taken the photo before morning came
I've no idea what it means but it sounds exotic
Still cooking.
