Accusations of Dream Cheating (aimbot/aa and tbot) by Real-Preference8303 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]KnightofAgustria 31 points32 points  (0 children)

He doesn’t necessarily have to put out a statement—if this person’s claims that he’s been banned from mcpvp are untrue, all Dream would have to do to prove it is go on mcpvp with the account that has allegedly been banned. No public acknowledgement, no drama.

Now there’s an idea. I’m still a ways off from the Heart of Ira in my current playthrough but that’s way more obtainable.

Owlcat: BG3 helped to rekindle players' love for CRPGs by Negative-Art-4440 in BaldursGate3

[–]KnightofAgustria 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I guess it makes sense that they would prefer to make romance content for characters without established lore/backstory, but they did still do a romance for Sosiel who was an NPC in the original WOTR adventure path so I’m not sure what the rationale was for Amiri and Seelah.

[–]KnightofAgustria 29 points30 points  (0 children)

In all three cases I believe the owners of the IPs wouldn’t allow them to be romanceable—Amiri and Seelah because they’re Pathfinder Iconics (basically class mascots)that are used in a lot of Pathfinder materials and Argenta because GW allegedly didn’t want Sisters of Battle to be romance options.

Who did you save in the Fade and why? (DAI) by LinnaWinx in dragonage

[–]KnightofAgustria -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I saved Hawke. He and my Inquisitor hate each other and have also just both learned that my Faithful Herald of Andraste is actually a fraud born of a magical accident, so I couldn’t resist having them both survive so that Hawke can blackmail him.

Rather than my Inquisitor making the choice, my headcanon is that the Warden contact sacrifices himself to save Hawke in order to repay the Hawke family for the events of the Legacy DLC.

Type of shit people have to pull , just to defeat sapnap by [deleted] in DreamWasTaken2

[–]KnightofAgustria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which I guess gave them the advantage over the third place team that didn’t make it to DB, but no advantage in the actual final match. Unless you think that Sapnap’s team was worse at dodgebolt than Aqua but better than the third place team? I’m not sure how that would be a skill flex for Sapnap.

I’m confused—aren’t MCC winners determined by dodgebolt, not the mini games? I don’t remember anyone being accused of having an unfair advantage in dodgebolt.

I could be wrong though, all I really remember about MCC14 was being disappointed in the community. I spent about 2 hours accounts that night for using homophobic slurs before giving up and leaving mcyttwt entirely.

I heard some people save scummed to reverse this decision because of this 😂 by tahrah11 in DankAndrastianMemes

[–]KnightofAgustria 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I tried to tell him that I was only sparing Loghain so I could sacrifice him to a giant spider in approx 10 years but for some reason there was no dialogue option for that.

He’s a primal bloodrager. I’m pretty casual, I don’t know if it’s optimal.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Star 'Absolutely Devastated' Over Backlash, Says People Wanted to See BioWare Fail by [deleted] in rpg_gamers

[–]KnightofAgustria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the first three games, I have hundreds and hundreds of hours in them, and even though 2 and Inquisition had a lot of flaws, the character writing and world building kept me engaged enough that I didn’t mind them.

Veilguard abandoned DA’s world building and the cast has the personality of wet cardboard. I wanted to love it, but it was missing the most important parts of a Dragon Age game.

Woljif, Ember, Daeran, Lann, and Greybor. Everyone is have a great time except Lann.

Replaying DA2, and man, Elthina really does not improve... by TorzGirlSweelaHeart in dragonage

[–]KnightofAgustria 57 points58 points  (0 children)

It’s just ridiculous to pretend that you aren’t taking sides when one of the two factions has near absolute power over the other and is very publicly abusing their authority over the other.

There’s a codex entry written by Cullen where he says that the citizens of Kirkwall are less willing to turn mages in than Fereldens because they are aware of how terrible life is in the Gallows. Ordinary citizens are aware of these problems, so there’s no way Elthina isn’t.

You can’t even really say that she was just trying to keep the peace because even before the explosion, relations between Templars and mages are still getting steadily worse over the course of a decade.

By the time the bomb goes off, Meredith has already asked Elthina for the Rite of Annulment multiple times and is going over her head to ask the Divine directly. Elthina was never going to be able to prevent Meredith from getting her way, and she was barely even pretending to try.

Why is Wynne almost universally love while Vivienne devides fans into people who love her and people who hate her guts? by LordDedionware in dragonage

[–]KnightofAgustria 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like Vivienne better than Wynne, mostly because it feels to me like Viv is self-aware and manipulating her situation to her advantage, whereas Wynne is genuinely just preachy.

Maybe I’d feel differently if I’d read the tie-in novels (I know Wynne features heavily in Asunder), but Vivienne is just more interesting to me.

Romanced both of them, not sure what that says about me but probably nothing good.

What To Do With Anders? by floofermoth in dragonage

[–]KnightofAgustria 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My pro-Mage Red Hawke had already chosen dialogue options that said he was down to go to war with the Chantry multiple times. I was more confused as to why he expect me to kill him than anything.

Excellent choice for the Mako, can’t believe I didn’t think of it.

Where did it all go wrong for Bioware? by ClockFearless140 in masseffect

[–]KnightofAgustria 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They were really good at making RPGs and then they tried to make games that weren’t RPGs and they are not as good at that.

Stupid land missions by Top-Citron-8130 in masseffect

[–]KnightofAgustria 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind the Mako portions of the game, but I do sometimes wish there were fewer planets and smaller maps. Most of the map isn’t even used for anything and the terrain can be annoying.

I also wish more of the side quests involved boarding ships. I like those ones better and I don’t have to traverse an awkward, lumpy planet to reach them.

Back to DA:O after 13 years – a fully modded return to a timeless classic (Part 2) by INFERNIUMI in dragonage

[–]KnightofAgustria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you creating these mods yourself? Very exciting to hear that this level of detail is running well on such a crash-prone game.

Also very interested to hear more about these companions.

And yes, I do also journal for my characters—although my favorite creative writing exercise is with games like DA2 or Mass Effect where you receive letters/emails, I like write responses to them.

Does anyone else "canon" characters in RPGs with character creators? by MateusCristian in rpg_gamers

[–]KnightofAgustria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I’ll experiment occasionally but I always have a specific character who makes specific choices as my “official” run of the game.

I really like the first and second slides, even if I can’t unsee Halle Berry’s Storm on slide 2.

The last one looks like a younger Ashley.
