they should have let you give him a little kiss here

it is genuinely funny to me how certain people (mostly redditors) get so hung up on fenris' mage opinions because out of literally every pro-templar character in this entire series he is literally the most normal

Me, age 10, doing an essay on the pharaoh’s curse for school: huh. So this archeologist that died and everyone thought it was because he disturbed the pharaoh’s tomb actually died because he used a rusty razor to shave and it infected a mosquito bite. I can see how people could come to that conclusion, but it is a bit silly

Me, today, shaving my mosquito bite-ridden legs: I must tread carefully lest I incur the pharaoh’s wrath

da2 is crazy because it's like almost (A L M O S T) a perfect demonstration of like. power schisms and how dominant colonialist religions gain their influence through control and fearmongering and how said fearmongering works specifically because the system is Designed to isolate and dehumanize groups of people who inevitably lash out and fight back, creating the exact circumstances for a dominant power to claim the moral high ground and further suppress the marginalized population. not to mention how it touches on the way the system even abuses its own participants by preying on their desperation or vulnerability to gain their loyalty and THEN turning them into disposable pawns that rely on it far more than it relies on them. and then in the midst of this you play as a victim of that exact same system where your whole life has been dictated by fear and secrecy and the constant looming threat of being taken or having your family taken from you, and then when you finally work your way above the system you still aren't free because the person at one of the highest points of the hierarchy is willing to turn your family and friends into hostages to ensure your compliance. and this isn't even mentioning how this is the same game that just Happens to be separated into three different periods of time where your class status and social standing is drastically shifted in each one so you experience every angle of this cycle of systemic oppression. and then at the very end when you choose between upholding the status quo or protecting the marginalized and persecuted population you get a wildly different outcome as the protagonist. rebelling and going against the grain makes you a fugitive who has to abandon the very home you fought tooth and nail for because the system is now hunting you down for attempting to disrupt it. but if you choose to maintain it you rise to one of the most powerful positions within the system. and the only difference in how you get there is you can only obtain power through massacring the oppressed population in its entirety, demonstrating how this exact cycle is maintained through violence and subjugation. it's oppression at its most brutal and honest form. victims will always be victims unless they comply to the will of the oppressor.

and then you go online and you find out the writers have been writing thinkpieces on why the templars are actually the good guys on twitter and you're actually stupid as fuck for interpreting this as a commentary on institutionalized oppression
