Sorry, this can be moved if not in the right place - I didn't want to post in your actual thread.

I just wanted to say thank you for making me literally laugh out loud while reading this. It's full of awesome. :)

I have a fan. Urrah! :cheers:

Be warned, I will continue torturing people with this until I've finished the game, which doesn't look like it'll be soon. :devil:

Like RPGs? Like Star Wars? Think combining the two would be fun? Read Darths and Droids, and discover the line "Jar Jar, you're a genius".

These, in the day when heaven was falling,
The hour when earth's foundations fled,
Followed their mercenary calling
And took their wages and are dead.

Fan number two over here. This has me giggling hysterically.

Welcome, Comrade! You too wish to be part of the anti-Ikea revolution, I hope.

You do know you're asking a Swedish person, right?

Of course I'm in. I've been forcefed with cheap IKEA furniture since birth. D:

So we have one Viking and one Ninja, to take on Ikea.

Sounds like a fair fight. :lol:

It's more of a murky pool of goo, actually.
I just toss people and crap in it, and with time they'll all sink out of sight. But for a time they'll have the spotlight. ^^

Another fan checking in!
I have to say that reading your playthrough thread is actually much more fun than playing the game itself... maybe because of all the marketing, i was expecting more, especially since i'm not that big on the so-called 'mature themes' which invariably mean sexual violence and people being rude to each other. I've often wondered why.

So, keep it up and keep it witty!

Re: the story: another great couple of entries, Bluenose. I especially like the bit about the Dalish.

*love*. That's about all I have to say right now. I was playing a sober city elf rogue first run through, and damn but if this doesn't put a new perspective on things. :D Brilliant work, Bluenose, can't wait for more!

Through lightning, travel shadow,
Through hell and all above,
Surviving sword and arrow,
Bound stronger by the love

And in the end a witness,
To where the death has lain,
Silent through the sorrow,
Where innocents lie slain

holy cow - spit-take on the coffee. The union rules got me - but then again, the number of times I laughed was pretty darned high.

Nominations for "DA:O sig quote of the Year" :

Panic moment; apparently people sneaking around after dark are locked in cages in their underwear. I would prefer this not to happen to me.


Someone must have driven him out here to die, as part of a plot to, well, do something. Step One, send cleric out into Wilds to die; Step Two, ?; Step Three, profit!



...Alistair tells him that they're just stragglers and he'd know if a lot were around - which Daveth regards as a good thing since we'll know when we're about to die. He may be joking, in which case he has to stop as there's only capacity for one snarky joker in the party at a time by union rules.



Rather than alienate the most powerful local organisation on behalf of a merchant who isn?t even offering much money, I attempt to find a solution that will let him benefit without annoying everyone else, since I might have reasons to sell or buy things myself and a lynched merchant isn?t much use to me. Morrigan then makes a suggestion. She suggests that the darkspawn will be impressed by what I?ve done, and then her approval drops. Clearly she doesn?t want the darkspawn to be scared of me! Although come to think of it, scared darkspawn are more likely to run away and we don?t get any experience for them that way. That is very clever thinking on her part.


Count me in as a fan!

Welcome, my fans. I bask in the warm glow of your regard.

I have to say that playing the game this way, looking for the absurd interpretation of events and running with it mentally, is a lot of fun. I'm enjoying writing this, so you're going to be subjected to it until I finish or I run out of ways to be silly. Whether you like it or not. :devil:

On the subject of "mature themes", I prefer to find the 'mature' in things that actually make me think rather than in pixelated breasts or other body parts and random sprays of blood. Moral dilemmas have so far been in quite short supply, though I've read a few too many spoilers not to know that there are some coming.

Yes, i think being adult should mean you can face some intellectual and moral problems rather than some pixelated body parts. But hey, i hear RPGs need more realism, and there's nothing more realistic than women of considerable skill, knowledge and power runing around with their clothes off and guys successfully dealing with problems by gutting.

Anyway, this malcontent rambling is only a side-note. Because, i've got a solution to the poultice! They're squeezable bottles! :D

Now that idea is good enough to steal. And it's not entirely a matter of chance that I'm playing a kleptomaniac elf ninja grey warden. So I have.
