Cool project from and by Reddit user Eglwyswrw, a gamebook adaptation of Dragon Age: The Last Court - 'I am adapting DRAGON AGE: THE LAST COURT into a Choose Your Own Adventure format in order to help preserve its narrative. Here's how you can help out...'

Excerpts from post:

"I felt compelled to start this project as a volunteer in order to preserve a playable form of The Last Court that, in spite of being in a very different subgenre of interactive fiction, somewhat keeps a good chunk of the original's spirit... or so I hope!"

"What am I supposed to do if I want to help out? Play it, either on your phone or your PC. Keep a watchful eye for typos, random strings of code that might have sneaked into the text, bizarre balance issues (such as having negative values of something for too long, or having over 100 of them for too long), illogical narrative transitions etc. If possible, screenshot your final stats (at the bottom of the page) and send them to me/copypaste it in the comments so I can have an idea if the balance is OK. A single playthrough of the demo should last, I don't know, 15 minutes? There should be a lot of variations based on your chosen class and choices so please feel free to play it as many times as you would like! When can we expect a full release? Pretty soon I think. This includes over 37000 words and I took about 9 days to reach this point, with almost a third of the story done."

the link has a free playable demo which contains almost a third of the full story, "the prologue + 3 full chapters", "Forever free, available on itch.io".

one thing that is never represented in the da games is: mages are very obviously Mage Looking, since no one else carries a staff around, and it's played as a joke when dalish from the chargers is like "uhhh i'm an archer! that's my bow :)"

but! this is what unstrung bows look like.

and most of the time, when not using them, bows are supposed to be left unstrung so they don't get damaged. so, it should be possible for a mage to wander around with a slightly wavy stick with a subtle decorative charm/crystal/whatever attached, and say "excuse me ser templar, that's my emotional support bow, for hunting, i just took the string out :^)" and it might even actually work as a bow!

dalish elves are WINNING with this one weird trick, that combines archery, magic, and lying to humans <3

And I do think they should’ve brought Sandal back in Veilguard, because if he made the trick lyrium dagger, handed it over, and said “Enchantment!” I wouldn’t even bat an eye or consider it a deus ex machina moment. Like yeah of course he could make a perfect copy, and it would be so similar that it could trick Solas. It’s Sandal.

The plot hole would be that his copy would absolutely be capable of rending the Veil.

Still thinking about this part tbh

oh my GOD

They should not have made Solas so much bulkier in Veilguard. He has been living mostly on cheese and honey. I do not believe it would ever occur to him to do a push-up and besides he has been too busy playing the piano mournfully. He should have been thinner and gaunt and obviously unhealthy-looking.
