replaying da:o for the first time in nearly 10 years has been a blessing (a reminder of why I got into the series in the first place) and a curse (a reminder why this is my beloathed series and i say that with as much affection lmao)

#elaine talks #it also solidified my ranking as da2 > da:o > da:i aldllskds #da:o has the sharpest dialogue in the series and also the best lore but my god is it narratively disjointed #and thematically confused #u all hate orzammar but the bigger sins in this game are both the urn of sacred ashes and the brecilian forest #orzammar is probably my fave hub of this game bc it feels realized lol #brecilian forest is fine on its own but it adds nothing to either elf lore or the narrative #even within the context of origins #urn of sacred ashes is just a tedious mess and i wished they cut down the dragonlings maze #and expanded on haven and the cultists more #at least every single one of da2's quest feed back into kirkwall and developing hawke's story #in origins it feels like the only important quests are those related to arl eamon #bc thats only when the main narrative moves forward lol #so really the urn and redcliffe #i dont count the circle tower bc u could really do without it lol
