"Varric used to be mean and a centrist" the first time we meet Varric is roughly 20 years prior to Veilguard, and the Varric in Inquisition, who we see become a responsible father figure to Cole, is from 10 years prior to Veilguard

i think its' actually very fortunate that we got to see Varric grow from being a carefree, kind of jerky guy running a spy network in Kirkwall to someone who learns that he has the power to change the world for the better to make a safer place for him and his friends to live in, and also that he feels good when he knows he can be responsible for other people

just a thought idk. i see so many complaints about missing DA2 Varric as though he didnt see Kirkwall's destruction firsthand. he's really shaken by it in Inqusition dialogue and banter, he developed as a character. this isn't a new sudden change brought on by veilguard

#75% of people's character criticisms in veilguard are like #seeming to not take into account the previous characters we know in love are different now....because of the actions they took #over ten years ago #except harding idk what happened there she's an exception #i could go on about isabela too how she's still the same isabela from da2 but she's far more aware of the consequences of her actions now #she's not some evil heartless pirate who doesnt care about people #she KNOWS she got people in kirkwall killed #she almost got herself killed! no wonder the lords of fortune rather sell scavenged treasure back instead of straight up robbing people #she cant spend money if she's dead #i have genuine criticisms about veilguard's character writing and story but man #way too many people taking things in bad faith because they miss da origins
