Owlie had its first ever horseback riding lesson in a Western saddle today (hier quand tu recevois ce message) and you better beLIEVE Owlie will be using that knowledge to write about Graves and his mare Snake.

Snake is a bitch. He loves her more than water and sunlight.

YEEEEEES He always feels a little proud when she bites someone else (and doesn't mind when she bites him either). How many times did she steal his hat and started running away at full speed while he tried to follow her only to give up and find his hat all chewed up and flatten by her hooves hours later? Too many times, but he still loves her 😌✌️

So you know when you're writing a scene where the hero is carrying an injured person and you realize you've never been in this situation and have no idea how accurate the method of transportation actually is?

Oh boy, do I have a valuable resource for you!

Here is a PDF of the best ways to carry people depending on the situation and how conscious the injured person needs to be for the carrying position.

Literally a life saver.

(No pun intended.)

Gotta confess something about Veilguard.

I think I can firmly, unambiguously say, with my whole chest, from the bottom of my heart, the writing in Veilguard is great. Not okay, not suitable, not “fine for what it is.”

Great. Fantastic. Beautiful. Amazing Dragon Age game.

I’ve heard it’s everything from hollow to bad to “oh yeah sure the plot is okay but everything else is weak” or “the companions were better in x.” No.

The fact that every part of the story and the companions ties into the major themes of healing and regret, and what leadership really means, makes it the most cohesive of about any BioWare game I can think of. Full stop. The choices actually matter to the story you’re playing. I’m so happy they shed some of the dead weight of old choices and focused on the story they were telling. Rook is a phenomenal protagonist pitted against the Evanuris. The companions are as fleshed out as they’ve ever been while each has an important role in the story for the first time. It’s tightly written while giving a lot of room for the emotions to breathe. It’s lore accurate and gave us so much to chew on. Not here to say it’s perfect cause nothing ever is. I’m looking forward to the more critical meta as the dust settles. But damn if it isn’t well-done. The fact we got it at all and what EA put the team through makes it even more impressive.

You don’t have to like it, you don’t have to play it, frankly if you can’t recognize the beauty in front of you that’s a you problem, but you can’t convince me this isn’t some of the best writing the studio has ever done. There is simply too much in the meta I’ve seen and done lately(hi mutuals you’re amazing) to convince me otherwise.

So yeah. Here’s your aggressively positive Veilguard post for today. Also thanks to the people who hated it cause I might not have doubled down on the critical analysis so hard otherwise. Strongly encourage you to read the analyses we’ve all been doing it’s really fun.

Something that catched my attention during today's episode, was that Laios doesn't mind being patted on the head.

I think he is a bit surprised Chilchuck does that, because he knows well enough chilchuck hates when people do that to him. Chilchuck's revenge doesn't bother him as he thought it would. I'd say he's thinking "when was the last time someone did this to me?". He lacks of caring father figure and then this guy, who, apparently, is a dad, un-shrinks and pats him.

He feels... It's wierd. It isn't disgusting, but isn't as nice as he thought those things were. He feels... He finds himself feeling nothing and wondering if he should feel something. Annoyance, at least. But no, he just feels this wierd thing inside of him. Because it was nice. It was a soft touch, even if it was teasing, it was nice. But he doesn't feel the warmness that should come with a care. He doesn't feel anything. It's like when Chil kicks him behind the knee. It's the same kind of message the one that pat gives him, but, for some reason, instead of a kick, this time it was a pat. And it feels... wierd. Not in an even remotely romantic way, not even close. Just... "how am I supoused to react?" He doesn't know what to say, so he doesn't say anything. He just knows he isn't used to this kind of things happening. How is he supoused to react? Marcille and Chil both get annoyed when patted. He should be? He wonders. But why would he? It isn't bad- it doesn't feel bad, it's just... How is he supoused to know how does this feels? It doesn't feels like much. At all. Why do they both make such a fuss about it? Sure it isn't the best feeling in the world, but... It isn't as bad as they make it look.

He doesn't know how to react, what to do, but before he has an answer, or has to worry about thinking it too much, the teasing stops and they're on their feet again.
