I have SO MUCH things to do but I literally can't compose myself after the last episode
this is me currently
#i miss celebrimbor SO MUCH#I miss Eregion#I miss all elves#and to think we'll need to wait another 2 years#absolutely disastrous#i miss Elrond and Gil and Galadriel#I miss Adar#there is a massive gaping celebrimbor-shaped hole in my soul#you don't understand I need this show to live#rings of power#absolute fucking brainrot#Elrond#Celebrimbor#Galadriel#gil galad#Adar#if I was alone in the house I would ugly cry I swear (I feel this awful pressure in my eyes for the last few hours)#but alas I am not so no soul cleansing cry for me

blink and you'll miss it moments around skyhold....
#solavellan#solas#gotta put out some tender stuff to balance the chaos target team leader solas has caused.#look i just need to go feral in the tags for a moment#okay the fucking. what's he call himself? the great adversary of her people's mythology....falls in love w a woman being forced into a role#not unlike his own#i t makes me c r a z y#like at one point he's all ooooh we're elves need to make sure the humans trust us to ensure safety. gives them a castle......#then he's all ''ooh you cant change the way your legend is getting out of hand. might as well accept it''#but he disapproves if you lean into it/call yourself the herald.#he approves of you fighting against the status quo. encourages sera to sow chaos and has a VERY interesting convo w her about power#''what lop of the top?'' ''yes.'' ''well what's that do except make room for a new top to come and fuck it all up?''#at which point he fuckin STUTTERS and is like. oh fuck. you're right. my bad. and then he shuts up in quiet contemplation#he's clearly wrestling w himself. and Ohmygod the felassanstuff.#like the Guilt. the Regret.#haunting that fucking rotunda.#and yet he's so in love w lavellan if they go that route.#like clearly some stuff was missing/fumbled in game. but like#how he fuckin screams for the inquisitor at the well?????!?! OK BOI?!#im just. the dread wolf. great adversary of the dalish pantheon.#turns out to be some somber grim guy with a fatalistic sense of humor who hates tea and greatly values free will#pina art

Family Tree Version 3, now featuring dwarves, hobbits, and the intricacies of however ainur are related!
Double lines on each side of a line break are used where lines overlap (---ll | ll---). Dashed lines indicate unknown numbers of generations, and dotted lines are for adoption. Grey text is used for alternative/old draft versions and assumed relationships (such as sticking oropher in with the sons of galadhon, or putting one of the dunedain as the tooks' fairy ancestor).
Version 2 here
#silm#silmarillion#lotr#lord of the rings#family tree#house of finwe#house of thingol#elves#ainur#valar#numenoreans#edain#rohirrim#hobbits#assorted hobbits#okay that covers everybody i think#fun fact! progress on this has significantly slowed down because the file has gotten so big it now takes three minutes to open or save#not to mention the lag while adding people#why are hobbits so horizontal -_-#theres so many of them... in so few generations...#im planning on changing the transparency of the grey text to reflect different canonicity levels but the layers keep crashing my laptop#theres a few people im missing i think#i dont remember if i got erellont in there? and i know im missing the tol eressea bunch and the giant whale#also yes the trees get to be in here too :)#sorry for the lack of closeups i couldnt get it to stay loaded for long enough#i might transfer this to a more powerful computer for getting all the pics off it later#oh well ill figure that out once i finish

this is like the first conversation scene of Dragon Age: Origins, and if we'd paid attention to it, we would have seen it was clear foreshadowing that the elven gods were "wrong" in a way that the Dalish don't expect. I've seen people claim the elven gods plot is some annoying new direction in the story that is made up to throw the series off track from what it's really about. so let me repeat myself
this conversation happens in the first ten minutes of Dragon Age: Origins
also I figured out how to use the Origins Toolset to look at the dialogue trees so you're all in a world of hurt
#the elven gods plot was always a big underlying current#Dragon Age#playing DA:O#DA replay#elven gods are so terrifying#I genuinely think that all of these ancient big plots are the same thing and they all will coalesce to be one story#so it's not elves are important - it's just all this old shit with the titans and the blight origins was always important#'I miss when we didn't talk to ancient gods all the time - I wish they were more mysterious like in DAO and DA2'#me: thinks about flemeth appearing in the first 30 minutes of both of those games to talk to the player

I hate how the critism of Veilguard has turned into "Its so woke" instead of focusing on the actual issues.
LIKE THE THREE CHOICES THING? I CAN'T BELIEVE PEOPLE JUST GOT OVER THAT SO QUICKLY?
Or the messy development with it's rewriting and devs & writers that actually knew and worked on the previous games being fired??
Hell I'd rather suffer through people debating over the artstyle for all eternity than have to hear another "The game is bad because nonbinary wouldn't exist in Thedas" or it's somehow even stupider cousin "The game is woke because none of the companions are hot" (both takes I've seen multiple times by now)
Congrats to the gamer dude bros for successfully derailing proper critism. If I was working on Veilguard and saw that the loudest critique was people complaining about pronouns, I would stop listening and I can't even blame them for it because every damn critique video ever has to have a segment dedicated to hating on "the wokeness"
#say what you will about the general artstyle but the qunari are a crime. i miss da2.#yes even the elves. they were far more interesting than human + pointy ear will ever be.#the combat seems fine but not for a dragon age game. artstyle. story. combat. story & combat was the bread and butter of DA.#and even if it wasnt literally the story & tactics franchise. dont break all 3 at once. thats how you get everyone to hate it.#dragon age the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age#dragon age critical#bioware critical

kind of unfortunate that so many fantasy epics are also war novels because i will be honest i just do not like war novels that much... the grand clashing of forces is compelling obviously but it requires characters to talk about so much practical battle strategy and while i can get my brain to comprehend all these fantasy maps and kingdoms and borders and battalions and front lines and army movements it takes up. so much space in the book. feels like i'm fighting a war of my own trying to get through it sometimes
#this is about the witcher books rn but also about book four of the inheritance cycle#roran is hot and i like seeing him with his hammer and his dedication and love for his wife!#also i am here for dragons and it is kind of a major tonal shift watching this man try to navigate becoming a military general!#like i'll learn all the names of the witcher kings and queens and learn where their provinces are and which towns are in which kingdom#and who borders what and where and how all those political machinations work. it's important to the plot.#damn it's a lot of names though#meve is the queen of lyria and rivia is in lyria. this much i know. because she is the only queen.#completely irrelevant information most of the time.#cintra is north of nilfgaard. nilfgaard is south of fucking everything.#cintra is like? middle of the map i think? there are other southern territories that got conquered by nilfgaard before cintra fell#other southern places. um. toussaint. i know this because this location is often referenced in fanfictions about aiden thewitcher#my favorite character that does not actually appear anywhere in canon aiden thewitcher#man i'm thinking about him again... fucking miss him... (<— guy who never met that guy to begin with)#anyway. what other witcher politics do i know. i can keep the wizard politics pretty clear in my mind.#total fucking lie i just realized i've been picturing stregobor instead of vilgefortz all through the last half of blood of elves#whateverrrrrrr i'll figure it out... this is why i can't pick things up this much later. i'm not restarting this reread though#other kings. suddenly all their names are gone. demawend? he is not very important rn i don't think.#vizimir. of. redania? perchance?#yes. because i think he's who dijkstra works for. and phillipa eilhart. i think that's the redania crew.#there's the king who is caught up in. incest. foltest. that's that guy's name. fuck if i know what kingdom. triss worked with him i think#oxenfurt is an independent city-state in my mind i don't think that's actually true though#just reread the story where geralt is delivering a message for the kings that border brokilon but could not tell you for the life of me#which kings and kingdoms those actually are. nor who ciri was supposed to marry there#anyway point is. man. War Novel#lord of the rings counts for this too btw. if i have to calculate the numbers for the armies it is a war novel to me#valentine notes#witcher reread

ever since tiktok recommended me a youtube video that discussed the artbook for veilguard and what could've been (potentially), i've been going actually yeah, where are the agents of fen'harel in the veilguard? why is he all alone and there's no one causing problems on his behalf when there canonically have been his agents mentioned since tresspasser?
#OOC.#that video had some good points and some bad takes but also like#ok so felassan is dead (i pretend i do not see it)#but there's also all this stuff from the books / comics?#i was thinking it through at every angle and just.................#another reason why datv felt a bit shallow to me i guess#da4 spoilers#veilguard spoilers#WHERE ARE YOU GUYS#it makes me want-- no i shan't say it. makes me wanna.... make a new oc.#me @ me: chill.#it's just in my opinion there are plenty of elves that would see the merit of the cause. that are FED UP with their lot in life#but then again seeing as they washed away a lot of gritty elements of the world like idk? like the crows or lords of fortune...#or tevinter's slavery. that's why they ignored fenris exists i guess.#welp.#sorry sorry#datv critical#a little bit tagging it just in case#no but if anyone has any insight on it or if i missed smth let me know but uhh yeah.

God going back to Inquisition and Solas is SO much more Welsh man.
#I personally miss the Welshness of the elves#I’d have loved all of the evanuris and flashbacks to have been Welsh voiced#some scattering of good Irish accents too#why are they RP why#Elgar’nan sounds like Alan Patridge to me

my neutral dragon age trait is that 50% of the time i'm like "the more i critique the games, the more i love them. i can appreciate each game for what they are but my criticism and frustration over what they could be are a sign of love" and the other 50% is like "this is the writing of the dragon age series. sure. why not. this may as well happen."
#post inspired by seeing a post where someone was asking a blog like 'hey ive only played veilguard what is a mage circle'#50% biting the bars of my cage over the way lore/plot/priorities have shifted and changed over time#50% along for the ride#but on that first point: looking at the plot of veilguard (stopping solas/elgar'nan and ghilan'nain)#im not surprised the mage/templar shit wasn't a big deal#and honestly any frustration i have with that is more so aimed at dai#bc dai was what first reduced the mage/templar war to 'here are some assholes fighting in the woods'#however.#objectively WILD that someone could play ur whole ass game and not know what mage circles/templars are#and then the confusion over an elven rook's backstory is honestly just laughable to me like akjdsjkdf#theyre dalish but they also lived in a town and if they're a mage they also studied somewhere#like. honestly imo not a big issue but like. a simple dialogue choice could've solved this.#it's so funny to me bc it's ridiculous but also. bring back ambient dialogue choices.#like tldr though#i super enjoyed veilguard and i appreciated it for what it did#and while not perfect. i'm a sucker for a story about friends and bonds.#and i think as an interpersonal story it works really well#and i can at the very least respect the writers/devs making the game not as open world#even though i do miss that a lot (as well as talking to ur companions mechanics)#however. the detachment from previous lore is definitely jarring.#not that i think veilguard needed to be about (for instance) the mages and templars#and honestly im happy we got companions that felt unique#bc i was getting real tired of 'here are the elves who hate each other. here is the one who doesnt trust mages'#etc etc etc#and getting to see all these factions was really nice too (though in a perfect world we'd have a legit origin quest imo)#but even just. some kind of way to bring in prev lore#tldr 2 i have my frustrations with the narrative arc as a whole and find them fun to talk abt#but sometimes im just like. it already happened. it's already written.#i will think abt what could've been while also just having fun w/ what i got#final tldr 3 i think dragon age is just the one series that im not always itching to meta essay on LMAOOO

what would sea-elves in the Elder Scrolls be called anyway? Mer-Mer- *I am immediately shot by a sniper*
#fair warning I do not know most Obscure Lore™ so for all I know sea-elves are very much a thing in the universe and they ARE called Mer-Mer#hang on a gotta look up something real quick#oh you have GOT to be kidding me#missed opportunity tbh#I am still calling them mer-mer

[emerges from my cave covered in blood] so i've been playing avowed--
#i've got a better hang of the combat so i've been picking fights left and right lol#anyway-!! i have missed just how rich this world feels in terms of all the different cultures#this is gonna sound funny coming from someone who has done 300+ pieces of silmarillion fanart in their life#but i'm not a huge fantasy buff so it's possible my impressions are a bit surface level#but i feel like often in fantasy you get so many dividing lines between like. elves are like x and dwarves are like y and humans are like z#with very little influence from their culture beyond that and very little mixing between the groups#so i think it's so cool how you get a sense of different nationalities in poe#where sure you've got some more isolated groups but contrasted with the more multicultural nations it just adds some fun texture#and right from the beginning in avowed you hear so many different accents which is such a perfect reflection of how ppl end up in the area#god i love these games. i love this world!!! i missed it!!!

#i genuinely do not care if people dislike characters that i like#but i stg if i have to read about fucking 'power imbalance' one more time for sol@vellan#as if HE had all the power in during their relationship#bc he was hiding things from her#he had agents (presumably)#and he had thousands of years of knowledge#but in terms of power?#his magic (at the time) is on par with Dorian and Vivan#and politically speaking? he has nothing atm#so yeah#there IS a power imbalance#and its 10000% in Lavellan's favor#miss me with that shit#if she comes to him with curiosity and respect#then they are meeting as equals#is their relationship a fucking mess? absolutely#but not because of that#'He sAyS MeAn tHiNgs aBoUt tHe DaLish!'#babe so did literally everyone else#DAI is the 'lets shit on the Dalish game'#he also approves when you help the Dalish clans and elves in general even despite having personal beef with them#because they did...*checks notes* try to murder him for telling them the truth#that old man is a fucking train wreck but i'm so tired of ppl with disingenuous takes talking down at ppl who like the ship#and acting like they don't know what actually happened in the game#ffs
