Joseph Evans
Asari become less alien with each sequel.
Luis Nguyen
I don't mind for that specific thing since I wouldn't want waifu to forget me, but yeah. Another thing they did in ME2 is try to come up with a "scientific" explanation for how asari reproduction works, but it's just as retarded as the original concept

Alright, I'll rephrase it.
I found her well-written, well-acted, and I wanna fug her. Better?
Hudson King
Oh; well-memed.
Leo Nguyen
She isn't a virgin...
James Cox
she's cute but dumb as a post. I like her but they really went over the top on the stupid. way more than necessary.
I read it as only a little stupid, and a lot of playing dumb/hiding her potential for fear of being bullied.
Carter Green
How much is this going to cost me, exactly?
Leo Diaz
it's not impossible but you have to REALLY want that to be the case to see it.
I get they wanted her to be
>i am so naive >what is this 'city' you speak of?
but they just do it WAY too many times, to the point that she ends up seeming like an absolute simpleton. some of it's fine, like
>why do you always win at cards isabela? >because i cheat silly elf
fine

no, this is too dumb, back it off
Juan Sanchez
Okay yeah, that's definitely true.
But to be fair, I DO really want it to be the case.
Connor Diaz
she really should have been DA2's standout waifu but they just wrote her badly.
it almost feels like the inclusion of anders made her worse, along the lines of
>okay we have two mages who have extreme viewpoints >but they have to be totally different. >okay >all antagonism, pessimism, and fervor is assigned to anders >all non-confrontational-tendencies, hopeless optimism, and naivety is assigned to merrill >NO OVERLAP, THE PLAYERS WILL BECOME CONFUSED.

what happened to the DA2 poster
Jayden Walker
banned for... I don't remember
probably something stupid
Brandon Adams
the selfie?
Evan Cooper
yep. got banned. deserved it. cut back on muh drinking. turned off fraps so i'm not so compelled to post.
Logan Jones
y-you're still playing it?
Liam Williams
not all this again. I got in trouble in the first place because i'm a chatty drunk and some user went 'NO PLEASE, TELL US ABOUT IT'
yeah, i threw away that save when i was banned, started a new game tonight. yeah, i'm autistic with vidya. you wanna talk about the game or just my autism, cause i kinda learned the lesson on the latter
Luke James
Are you still playing DA2? It's probably worse than drinking, tbhwyf
Henry Gray
nah lad you got banned specifically for the selfie because the mods are weird
Jackson Bennett
yeah I know. i meant that's the reason i even went to selfie-land. not to say it wasn't my fault, the inquiry just opened the door.
Aiden Baker

Is this to be my fate for my whole mage run?
Nicholas Stewart
Have you seen the mage hats yet?
Michael Ramirez
I just got one. Kill me.
Luis Jenkins
>Is this to be my fate for my whole mage run? yes, with only a couple exceptions which look even stupider on a male char
but you have a very good out! become an arcane warrior. invest one point in the tree and completely ignore the rest. now you can wear REAL armor. get a good set with -fatigue bonuses. get the invisible helmet mod
Jonathan Bailey
I might do that. Alternately, is there a mod you can recommend (one that just replaces the male robe models/textures, not one that gives a bunch of items)?
afaik there are only three robe models in DA:O (possibly only two for males). regular robes, stupid feathered robes, and other stupid feathered robes. all look like ass on human males. although if you steal wynne's pure-red robes ("enchanter's robes" i think) they're slightly less shit.
Levi Phillips
Wait till you see the protective mage head gear
Eli Morgan
I really wonder what the fuck the designer in charge of DA:O's leather armor/light mail/light headpieces was thinking. did anyone think that shit looked good? was there a committee?

Well, those have some historical accuracy or at least they look like they have some practical sense and whatnot. Mages' don't make sense in any way. Especially not aesthetically.

Thomas Gonzalez
>Well, those have some historical accuracy or at least they look like they have some practical sense and whatnot
wat
the only close thing i can think of historically is gladiators, which were matches fought for spectacle in traditional (but less-than-practical) armor.
no one ever wore DA:O light/medium armor into battle IRL, unless they wanted to die
I dunno. I was just looking for a way to explain it. It might shock you but I suck at that. They just look like something that would fit in a "timeperiod" like that and stuff.
Ethan Murphy
Call the cops
Alexander Taylor
>I dunno. I was just looking for a way to explain it. It might shock you but I suck at that.
nah, i'm right onboard with that type of thinking. I like to explain away the shit I like, if i can. i dont think there's an out here tho
>They just look like something that would fit in a "timeperiod" like that and stuff.
yeah, possibly. the problem is the thousand-year disconnect between armor types
Jonathan Edwards
I forgot how butt fucking ugly Origins is. Remaster with DAI's engine when?

Jaxon Flores
Seriously, that place was ridiculously heavy even on the original engine. The universe would probably implode if it was put on frostbite
Angel Robinson
Bioware should accept their pole overlords and license REDengine
Justin Jenkins
fuck all that, we aren't GAMEBYRO tier yet. frostbite has held up reasonably well for a number of games, it just needs to stop and refocus
Lincoln Morris
keep droning
William Brooks
what am i droning for again? fuck EA, fuck bioware
is minor faith in the engine droning now?
Alexander Edwards
>king caelan dies >oh no, this stock character to whom I have no attachment and about whom I have no reason to care has died >Duncan goes full HAM even though he and I agreed that Caelan was kind of a bubblehead
I thought character-driven writing was one of the strengths of this series?
Jaxon Wright
no, shutting off all attempts of discussion with "fuck all that! I have faith in bioware despite their previous record and fuck you haters who disagree !!" is droning
Liam Stewart
>Caelan >HAM >bubblehead kys
Noah Reyes
See, I couldn't even be bothered to remember how to spell his name, he's such a useless fop. HAM was meant as a double meaning - one that Duncan was hammy in how he killed the ogre and two that he was, indeed, hard as a motherfucker. What's wrong with 'bubblehead'?
Jacob Gutierrez
>"I have faith in bioware despite their previous record and fuck you haters who disagree !!"
good thing i never said that then. I have zero faith in bioware. I have some faith in the frostbite engine, because it has been used to good effect in some games
Charles Mitchell

I was thinking, and I realized that you don't even HAVE to kill all elves. You can just kill all of the male ones, then keep the females as sex slaves, since elf female + human male = human babby
