As vel's blight worsen she doesn't speak that much anymore.. her voice became coarse and its difficult to speak in a loud voice so she just.. doesn't talk😔 zevran gets that, and fortunately they know each other well enough that gestures would suffice🥹

So what you’re saying is that the Dark Council had a really entertaining meeting that day, huh

Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts Dragon Age Inquisition

The ending that we all want.

( what is your choice?)

Your average meeting of the Dead Three

I think I talked too much about just how grossly they kiss but did not make it clear enough. Right in front of Ketheric's salad, too.

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

There’s blood all around,

By the way, I love you

it’s interesting how many people, including myself, share the similar sentiment that veilguard is actually incredibly fun while playing, and its the process of thinking back on it after finishing where it begins to fall apart and the holes begin to show… i think it’s especially interesting because at least for me, the other dragon age games are the opposite. i hate playing inquisition, but when i sit and look back on it i cannot help but admire how brilliant the writing and characters are. dragon age 2 can be a slog by act 3 but when i finish and think back on how the story unfolded i know in my heart that it was a masterpiece. i got bored or frustrated while playing them but these games stuck around in my head after finishing them for the first time not just for days or weeks but for years.

veilguard lacks this. i had A LOT of fun playing the game. i love the gameplay loop. i like the puzzles. i love the environments. it was probably the easiest dragon age game to blast through 60 hours of. but then the credits roll and instead of analyzing character arcs and deconstructing banter, im stuck on all the plot holes and missed opportunities.

veilguard gets worse the longer i let it marinate in my brain, rather than better. each rotisserie turn of the story over in my head reveals more and more nothingness - or just clumsy attempts at misdirection so i don’t think too hard about what’s missing. the dragon age games have always been an olympic sized swimming pool that you can dive headfirst into if you want, and you will be rewarded with a corresponding amount of depth. veilguard is one of those kiddie pools at a water park with slides and fountains and a water-based jungle gym on top - it’s fun on the surface and packed with things to do. but if you attempt to dive? you’ll crack your head open.

Dear Burly Gortash Lover Anon,

I absolutely love how speedy you were with this ask. You knew what you wanted and you came to get it. This footage was going to go in my pile of things to sort, but I've made a couple of gifs just for you. More will come in time.

(EDIT: they had a whole lot of empty footage at the end which I've corrected)

Enver's sun spots and crow's feet and smile lines genuinely make me so happy. That's a man that has lived, that has endured, that has smiled and cried and been in the sun. How many characters in media do we get with those? With actually realistic faces? He's genuinely so beautiful
