I think about this screenshot every single day

God fucking christ anora and loghain's relationship makes me nauseous (positive). She is his only child. He would give her the world if she asked, but she won't, because she's perfectly capable of getting it herself. He knows that. He wants to protect her from the burden of making bad decisions as a ruler by making them in her stead himself. "She sounds like a terror" -> "it's the peculiar joy of parents to be terrorized by their children". They know each other better than anyone else alive. The only time her mask of composure shatters is when she sees her father about to be executed. He's fully ready to die as a warden because he trusts her ability to "turn [his death] to her political advantage". She wants nothing more than for him to live. Once he realizes ferelden can be saved without him he fully thinks her life would be better off without him and his mistakes looming over her. She rejects all her future suitors because "all of them fall far short of the bar she measures them against: that of her father". He knows she loves him despite the mistakes he's committed and would forgive him no matter what. He wishes she wouldn't.

I like to imagine that during the numerous long treks across Ferelden, Morrigan occasionally shapeshifts into a crow and perches on the Warden’s shoulder or weapon. Reasons: 

Why tire herself out if she doesn’t have to?

It definitely annoys Alistair.

The Warden gets to look cool.

It’s a good way to avoid dealing with templars.

Oh boy does Alistair ever hate it.

The Warden’s pretty cute, but shh, don’t tell.

OGHREN KONDRAT • DRAGON AGE: AWAKENING

Came here thinkin’ I’d try my hand at becoming a bona fide Grey Warden.

#zevran’s character stagnates because he goes through multiple rewrites bc fans keep leaving feedback that they don’t like him#no one elaborates as to why they just insist they don’t like his character#Larian insists they’re taking the time and resources they need to make his character better because they want to get it right#somehow dog has more content than him when the game finally launches (tags via @theharlotofferelden)

"Larian should handle the next Dragon Age game" Going off how they handled Baldur's Gate 3 if they handled a game like Dragon Age: Origins, they would release the game and then get people complaining about how they shouldn't HAVE to lose Alistair as a companion completely just because they spared Loghain because now they have to do 2 separate playthroughs and also their character has to face consequences for a decision. 5 patches later you can suddenly have both Alistair and Loghain on your team. And 2 patches ago they made it so Anora actually doesn't mind if you replace her on the throne with your friend because he has noble blood, because people complained that she shouldn't mind. And then in patch 13 Morrigan suddenly has half her dialogue replaced because players found her too mean. They don't know what to do with Sten at all so they remove his personal quest in Patch 2. Instead of developing the themes of Oghren's character further he's cut completely because dwarf companion. Due to popular demand they added Bella from the tavern and Cullen as companions and it goes as well as you expect. Your origin also has no impact on the rest of the game except you get a handful of dialogue options that are sometimes funny. In Patch 14 they change Bann Teagan's hairstyle, only to patch it back to his original hairstyle in Patch 15 because everyone hated it. In Patch 15 they give Dog fur, only to patch it away in Patch 16 because everyone hated it. Patch 44 has everyone reunite for a party at Arl Eamon's place for some reason. Everyone is playing a different version of the game because it has changed so dramatically between early access and Patch 743. You can fuck Morrigan when she shapeshifts into a spider at full release though.

one of my favorite zevran headcanons is that he breaks into vigil’s keep every time he visits just so he can tell the warden where the defenses need bolstering.

And please tell me why you'd want your chosen studio to take over in the tags!! :] Orrr why you don't trust any of them >:]

i think it's a testament to how much wicked eyes and wicked hearts sucks as a quest that it takes a concept i normally love (mission where you need to go to a ball with your friends and get all dressed up) and it's my least favorite quest in the whole game. it sucks so bad. i hate it here.
