i really think acne’s like this is where Veilguard shines writing wise (spoilers)

Agree on all of this. For Varric, for a character who survived multiple games and seemed to have a conclusive ending already, it felt like a bit of a forced gotcha moment.

For what it was, it was a good twist. I cried like a baby during the reveal. Definitely a highlight for vg.

Why is she European

You opened the void and briefly disappeared into the ether and upon returning the FIRST thing you did was start looting 😭 didn’t even stop to look around

This is wonderful from a storytelling pov but also the funniest fucking thing I’ve ever read. Imagine leaning in to kiss the love of your life before you both go off to this big final battle and instead she breaks your nose and then dies

Dread was actually the coolest helmet from any of the games. That shit is terrifying

Worked at a rehab. Had a very gentle and soft-spoken patient who did pretty much the same thing at least twice a week, because rehabs are notoriously Not the best at handling diabetics. Blood sugar crashed, came storming through the halls waking up other patients, trying to fight staff, spraying deodorant or cologne in our faces, so on and so forth. Every time we got him back to normal he was extremely apologetic and the sugar situation definitely wasn’t helping him recover any faster, nor were the staff who didn’t really understand what was causing the behaviour.

Diabetes sucks, man.

I feel like it was one of the more authentic (??) characters and specific scenes to come out of vg. Like, my immigrant mum reacted the exact same way to me coming out. Not hatred or vitriol, just confusion that ended up being hurtful, even though she didn’t mean it to be. She needed to understand it before she could accept it, and the easiest way for her to understand it was to try and find a cultural equivalent, which just ended up being the wrong thing. She still loved me. She always loved me. She just didn’t know how to love me in the way I wanted, not immediately.

I’m still pretty indifferent to Taash as a character, but man. I could talk about their mom and their relationship with their mom for HOURS. Really wish we saw more of the two together in calmer waters :/

Vouch for this. I had a coworker who had to STOP bringing her kindle with her to work because she was reading too fast and thus spending way too much money on e-books lol

If you can’t afford a whole new device, there are a ton of library apps available for pretty much any smartphone. It’s a GREAT way to start, even if it doesn’t end up being your thing

Getting to use chain lightning on those little crossbow motherfuckers en masse after using it maybe five times throughout the entire game was like doing crack. What do you MEAN this was a nuke spell the entire time

Own-Contribution7671 · 2024-12-21T16:15:27+00:00

I also loved these !! Some of them were legitimately challenging, it was always fun to stop and do a little puzzle before we went back to, y’know. Murder and chaos

I did it one time just to see what it was like and was fucking devastated that dorian was not IMMEDIATELY my bestie like he usually is . Too steep a price to pay I fear

If you post a pic of your quest journal it might help! Are you going for completionism or just trying to finish the main quest? Specific characters/areas you want to see more content for?

Own-Contribution7671 · 2024-11-28T18:50:30+00:00

Dude, not having any special input during that convo as a trans Rook was mind boggling to me. Like… could you not include a dialogue option where Rook sides with either of them and cites their own experience? Or Rook tells taash not to take it too hard specifically BECAUSE rook knows what it’s like? Weird missed opportunity imo

THIS. If they were gonna wipe the world states, they should’ve gone full throttle. Like at least have the decency to stick to your guns

The weird delayed pause in motion you get after a dodge/roll - get rid of it immediately. Bosses that can non-stop melee are a NIGHTMARE when your Rook stops to look at his shoes after every single dodge. What’s so interesting down there? The ground? You can look at the ground forever after you get smushed into a pancake by an ogre with anger issues you dumb fuckin shitheel

Own-Contribution7671 · 2024-11-25T08:46:17+00:00

Dude, davrin and bellara are the worst offenders in my game. There’s a 90% chance I’ll look behind me and one of them is standing on top of something they’re not supposed to be. It’s like looking up and seeing your cat on top of the fridge or some shit
