I am nostalgic today (I am playing RT and thinking back of the glorious times when DA was tactical and not an action game...)

This is Aren, my ace bloodmage warden who romanced Leliana and Morrigan. (It's complicated)

She has probably the most complex DAO worldstate I've ever made

Like, it's one of the very first moves you learn, and yet Solas managed to pull it off. I can only assume in game Rook has never played or they should have seen this coming 😅 (Iron Bull probably would have...)

I have to say, as a chess player, it tickles me that they named the main character Rook and then had one of the most well-known chess moves be a major plot point 😅🙈

Screenshot from a conversation in Rogue Trader:

Irene: The payment will be unfair, as I will be robbing you blind. But you will remain in charge. Do we have a deal?

Vladaym Tocara the Liege:  That is a reasonable business proposal. I wouldn't have even gotten this much from the esteemed Incendia Chorda - she would've both robbed us and asserted her own authority. And so I agree. *he pauses, then adds with a dry smile,* You are a dangerous woman, Your Ladyship.

Never has something in a game been so damn in character for Irene as finally being the cutthroat merchant she was always meant to be.

When I criticize the writing of the latest dragon game it's not about no evil options or whatever, it's about lack of roleplaying and the fact that almost all "options" are mild variants of the same flavor and impact nothing.
It's basically this all game:

Finished the dragon game and started another Rogue Trader run as a palate cleanser and let me tell you, making Irene as a Rogue Trader is absolutely perfect for her. She gets to take people's money, be unhinged and set herself on fire all the time. It's her destiny. 😅

Lotro has very classic tab targeted combat as well but the game has the unbeatable bonus of being the most comprehensive and detailed Tolkien adaptation that exists. Other MMOs just straight up lose against that for me 😅
Also it still has something of a class identity...

Yoshi P said play other games and then come back, but while part one works great, part two just isn't happening 😅 Bc I made the mistake of actually playing a lot of other games and man did it highlight how incredibly boring XIV's combat and over world leveling is to me. 😅

Can't believe BW made an insanely attractive and cool NPC with the Viper, gave him the most bonkers and should-be-impactful actual identity, and not only can you only find out through scattered notes but also no one in the game acknowledges this massive thing. Ever.

I absolutely love that her scars are showing in this outfit. Makes some people even more uncomfortable around her.

They could have made them interesting and controversial, instead they feel like a parody of old Zorro movies, and the game trying to convince me they should be in charge of Antiva? Those child-trafficking murderers? Nope. Save your own city, I'm out. 🤷

Also I remember the Crows from Zevran's tales. It doesn't matter how fancy you render their city, I will NEVER like them as a group or faction that the game is trying to sell me as nice and sympathetic people. Nope.

Please look at Elegy, my Mourn Watch Rook with a huge crush on Emmrich. She's my weird little freak that others look at funny for her obsession with everything dead.
She's also a trans woman and basically a blood mage.

Ngl, I kinda lost it when the Crows storyline blatantly quoted the Lion King - I couldn't take them seriously before but after that it was goodbye all immersion 🤣

I really enjoy that they have a cosmetic system this time, but I would enjoy it even more if I didn't find 90% of the armors and 100% of the helmets butt ugly 🙈

The good thing about there being basically zero substantial and detailed lore about Liches in Dragon Age just means I can go as weird, wild, and messed up as I want with my headcanons ^^

Alright, second run, this time as a rogue from the Mourn Watch.
Rose is a trans, has a shaky aim with arrows but is fast with the knives, and has her own little battle with corruption going on.

One pacing issue I really can't get over in the beginning:

Neve: "Omg, the blight! We need special people, and there is only one logical choice!"

My Rook: "Yes! The Grey-"

Neve: "The Crows, we definitely need an assassin!"

🤣🙈

And man, I have some imo valid critiques but ultimately the story worked for me, and damn, 14 years after the Suicide Mission they did it again and really stuck the landing.

I am also in danger of actually shipping Solas - just not with the Inquisitor bc I am all about the dynamic he has with a snarky Rook.
