just for fun this time during 'sea of blood' I counted out all the venatori corpses I think we can be pretty sure were lucanis' handiwork before we show up (not including the ones he kills in his initial cutscene, and with an assumption that he's been at work mainly up and down in the areas we move through until we find him, not behind the locked door -- I think that's mostly the work of rampaging undead and other venatori-hoisted-by-their-own-petard suchlikes). can thus happily inform you lucanis has killed at least 32 venatori before rook and company get there. at least one of them he's impaled on their own weird crystal spike things the venatori mages cast as an AOE attack and that they're trying to keep him contained with when we find him. so he's clearly been keeping busy lol. that's my boy dispensing poetic justice and claiming some enrichment in his enclosure while he's at it good for him!

In drs2p2 someone should say the word “host” or “game-show” in Jay’s earshot in a completely different context but he ends up remembering nothing but that like one year or so where for some reason that was his profession.

things that would have been cool writing choices for dragon age imo, not necessarily better just interesting:

loghain doing the dark ritual on his own if the warden chooses not to. I'm not sure this is in character really it just would have been wild for a character to make a Decision like that without you. maybe only if you have low approval or something (even though its difficult to get approval either way bc you get him so late)

anders somehow using gaatlok to blow up the chantry. much as i enjoy digging through sewers for poo crystals this would have tied the various plots between acts together so nicely. this one i legitimately think would have been better.

I said this in a different post but not allowing you to go to the circle during the arl of redcliffe because it's a cheap copout and makes no sense. either give us consequences for running off and spending 300 hrs in the fade or force us to make a hard choice.

a fourth secret persuade option for mage wardens to let eamon be possessed instead of killing connor or isolde. I know i've said this a lot. But the deal would be Arl Deamon agrees to act the part until the blight is over and the dialogue is slightly different during the landsmeet etc and ur the only one who knows why. ;) epilogue slide where he's eventually discovered and killed but not before he Wreaks some Havoc

giving thrask and grace more protagonism in da2 and having them survive, and THEY become the mage/templar leaders in dai rather than randos samson and calpernia.

an acknowledgment in the anders romance that justice is ALSO in love with hawke. awakening anders was a fun flirty commitmentphobe whereas justice was an intense weirdo about kristoff and aura's relationship and even expressed jealousy towards them. which was soooo interesting. anders being so intense and lowkey possessive (love him tho) in the romance makes so much more sense if it's actually coming from justice. "justice doesn't approve of my obsession with you" bro justice IS the obsession be fr.

isabela not betraying you in the fade if she has 100% approval and is romanced. i always find this out of character especially since she betrays you JUST for a ship and not anything actually meaningful like the others. or if it was a ship but the demon's offer was more explicitly about freedom/escaping from castillon (which can be read btwn the lines but I think it should have been more obvious) that would have been much better.

Headcanon that Leo has the song "Honey, i'm good" in his distraction working playlist and whenever it comes on, he refers to Festus as the "somebody at home" when that line comes on and him and Festus just have a nice little time enjoying a silly little song

I think, as a crow, Illario would firmly have the mindset of "death isnt the worst thing that can happen to you"

Which has to make Lucanis' return so much more upsetting. You wanted your cousin dead (he was going to get himself killed anyways. Now, a year, ten, what does it matter, this job will kill him) and for a whole year you think you've succeeded.

And then you find out that no, you couldn't even grant your cousin (your brother) the grace of a quick clean death. He was tortured and twisted into a demon, and the man who walks through the door is a husk, puppeted by the (quite literal) spirit of your mistake.

How do you even cope with that. You deal with death, it's your life, it's his, and yet somehow what was supposed to be a quick kill was dragged out into something twisted and awful. Does it eat at him? If he's redeemed, does it keep him up at night? If locked away, does he pace the length of his cage and think that he too locked his cousin to such a fate? I need to study this man like a bug he fascinates me

Rey, who is in my very biased opinion, one of the funniest "girls" I have because she's just a guy, truly. Like Rey is just short for Reynold because he was recruited by a a goddess to help the hero she selected and the hero is conveniently Reynold's younger brother. So he agrees to help under the condition that the goddess gives him a female body for the other world. She's like "really odd flex but whatever" and gives him a female form and he's like "you know. I can't really blame anyone but myself for not specifying 'please don't turn me into a Lisa Frank personification'."

I have a question about the factions and would love some insight-

I’ve played one play through so far as a veil jumper and I was wondering if the other factions had more/less/about the same flavor text? I read that playing as crow!rook (especially romancing Lucanis) there is more banter/dialogue options and I’m curious if that rings true for the others.

one of the things i'm most disappointed about is that da:tv will sell well. it's been designed to bring as much new players in as possible, and apparently a lot of people disappointed in it will still buy it on launch day. and ea will keep producing absolute steaming garbage with some ip slapped onto it just because it sells. theyre treating the series with as much respect as netflix originals with their medias.

POV: an alien that looks uncannily like your dad offers to teach you about your Saiyan heritage (definitely not sus)

Heavily inspired by the Odin scene in God of War: Ragnarok!!

I see a lot of Gohan & Turles interpretations as like Turles being an evil (and lonely) Saiyan and Gohan trying to find some way to outsmart him buuuuut I prefer to think of Turles as a cunning bastard that would lull Gohan into a false sense of security.

Maybe years of being repressed and told what to do by every adult figure in his life made him feel like Turles could be his route for freedom. Like, dude literally explores the galaxy and does whatever he wants.

Ofc, Gohan isn't naive enough to just get kidnapped. Turles tosses him a scouter and tells Gohan to call if he wants to talk, and Turles would secretly come to visit.

Then eventually when Picc finds out...all hell breaks loose and Gohan (panicking) willingly hops into Turles's ship and they take off.

Even then Turles doesn't tie Gohan down. He offers to send him back whenever he wants, even shows him where the emergency eject pods are. Turles knows damn well Gohan's curiosity is too great for him to make the smarter decision not to engage (like GoW Atreus)

Tldr Turles is a textbook groomer 💀

ok i don't normally make 'crotchety old lady on porch' posts. but i just saw someone on another social media website say they were feeling 'nostalgic' for their bg3 pairing and??? ....how????? it's not even been a year since release????? fan creators are still churning out content????

i know fandoms seem to cycle way quicker these days, but it's always so funny to me when people start to wonder why. the posts about 'the fandom is dying' are starting to circulate for bg3, and - not in a shaming way bc everyone is entitled to find new interests and new hyperfixations and also REST!! I'm not holding anyone hostage!!! - but... maybe it's because you barely gave it a chance to live??? by the time it had started to gather momentum you had already left it behind???
