when your professional frenemy calls you a cradle robber and says that she looks better than you despite being a literal skull.

Ngl though, it can be frustrating when some of your companions are being fucking dipshits and you can't tell them to shut the fuck up and get it together... There's not really much conflict between the companions to begin with, but the game does consistently force Rook into being a "and why don't you tell [character name] how that makes you feel?" every time you're forced into being a therapist (which is a lot).

It does make me miss all the bitching and whining and fighting and yelling in Inquisition. I don't think you can even actually kick a companion out?? Idk. The game has been extremely heavy handed with the "Power of Friendship" message, and I personally have never been a huge fan of that trope.

Edit:: ALSO. I really hate the setup for quests. I am literally constantly binging the companion quests in between basic story missions because i'm scared it's gonna seal them off otherwise, so the pacing is EXTREMELY weird for me right now.

I've been absent because I've been binging DAV; enjoying the game a lot, but I gotta agree with all my discussions I've had with friends: they really sanded down any of the edge/darkness DA had, and I think that's a mistake and a loss, tbh. Still a good game and I'm having fun, but there's a lot of wasted potential.

Also they keep retconning/ignoring parts of lore/world building (esp the darker aspects) from older games and it annoys me, but whatever

I absolutely love the way GDL delivered this line. Solas is so ashamed and angry with himself, he's speaking to Lavellan but he directs those words more at himself, there's SO MUCH remorse and regret in his voice. The way his voice trembles when he says "betrayed", the fact that he has to take a breath because it pains him so much. It's been 10 years and up to this point he's never actually had the chance to say those words out loud, this is the first time when he admits to how deeply he hurt her.

Noa and Lucanis having a casual hallway conversation. Pic reffed from the Cordelia movie ~ Okay I know for a fact I didn't come up with this idea of Lucanis being pushed to the wall in this exact pose I'm almost positive I saw the idea while scrolling but I cannot find the original post! Please if someone sees it in the wild link me and I will credit the originator of the idea... but yes this is how we're going to treat the Crow. Here's a free and relevant Spite meme to how he may be taking witnessing this go down:

following this game these past few years has been a weird experience

Here's my Lucanis mini embroidery! I will actually be doing this design (with even more details) in full 8 or 10 inch size, but wanted to do a smaller version first to make sure I like all my color choices. This piece uses a mix of silk, cotton, and satin finish threads, some commercial colors and some I overdyed by hand to get the shades exactly right. I do have a couple things I'll adjust but I'm very happy with how it came out!

This pattern will eventually be for sale with my others, but not until I finish the full size piece. You can see my other work in my embroidery tag :)

I won't be upset if you don't like coffee.

Bioware failed to manage expectations for veilguard at every possible turn in a way that is both genuinely confusing and makes it hard for me to feel sympathetic about the fan backlash they're getting
