It’s not specific to dav by any means, I just wish player characters were able to have the same depth of trauma and vulnerability as companions are on their own specific quests at any point in their respective games and Rook seems especially “smiling through it all” about everything because the rest of the game is also very sanitized compared to the others before it
#playing dav#especially without the ability to go up to your companions and just go down a branch of conversation between quests#I feel like at least in inquisition that’s where you could establish a little of Inky’s lore#like talking to Josephine about your family and relationship with them#or Viv’s questions for a mage inquisitor#between the lack of in depth personal prologue like in dao#and lack of tangents like in dai#Rook is a lot more faceless and placeholder-y than our warden and inky especially#hawke had a lot of story built in because they were more of their own character in a way#more established even with some customizable elements to them#I mean you can always come up w your own lore for what is essentially your character#but I think that doesn’t understate what it means to have in-game prompted lore questions that you can choose the answer to yourself#to personalize your own experience#and it makes them seem shallow despite all the pressure that they’re under and the trauma of what they’ve been through#especially after (spoiler ahead avert thine eyes) being pulled into a fade prison and finding out varric has been dead the whole time#you get like one throw away line to your romanced companion that you can’t really know if you’re out of the fade or not and that’s it#where as it could be a very large source of paranoia and anxiety#if they cared to write it that way#like I KNOW I can do it myself—and I am!—but that’s not the point#the point is that every other companion has these in depth character arcs#and rook spends the whole time with very much…#camp counselor/youth group leader vibes because they never do anything but smile and say ‘we can do this guys!’
