Re: Dragon Age II: EA boogaloo

The entire city was built as a giant amplifier for blood magic in a way that also weakens the veil, and at it's height nearly one in ten slaves taken to the city simply vanish from record. Even the severs appear to be designed to handle draining blood on an industrial scale. That's why there are so...

It's official. Solas is best elf.

She had a funny way of showing it given how poorly written Anders was.
Talent and Admiration for a character don't go hand in hand I'm afraid.

Re: Dragon Age II: EA boogaloo

On the subject of Anders one thing that has always bugged me is just how differently he's written in DA2 in contrast to how he's written in Awakening. In DAA he's a bit of a twat but still a good guy and doesn't so much hate Templars as he hates being locked up while in DA2 he's a just a utter wank...

Re: Dragon Age II: EA boogaloo

I'm gonna be blunt and bring up something I don't see too often, if the Chantry's interpretation of events is the most accurate one, then The Darkspawn are more the fault of The Maker than The Magisters. Granted, they did attempt to invade the guy's house to steal from him, and he was in his rights ...

Re: Dragon Age II: EA boogaloo

Also, established reviewers, both at the level of the publication and the individual, have something at stake. Their professional reputation. ... If an established reviewer is an axe grinding shill, or a publication gets caught snuggling too closely in bed with a publisher, their professional reput...

Re: Dragon Age II: EA boogaloo

One point that has always bugged me with Elthina is how arrogant she acts in her last scene if you bought the Exiled Prince DLC. She is told by Hawke that the Divine wants her out of Kirkwall as this powder keg dressed as a city is about to go off and her being their will only make the situation wo...

Re: Dragon Age II: EA boogaloo

I honestly think Chuck is being way too nice with his assessment of Elthina. I personally think she's a LOT more manipulative and scheming than she let's off. Granted, pretty much ALL of this comes from a fan Tumblr called Dragon Age Meta, but I think the author raises some good points. http://drago...
