🎃Happy Halloween🎃, and also to the one-year release since #DragonAge #TheVeilguard. Lot of emotions surrounding this game, but mostly I'm glad that it got the chance to exist despite everything the devs went through. I hope they're all doing alright and go on to create even more amazing things. 💜🐺🗡️

1) Dorian (the voice acting made him feel so real)
2) Corypheus ("I have seen the throne of the gods, and it was EMPTY!")
3) I've actually only read Tevinter Nights and some of the comics, but I would have to say either Audric from "Down Among the Dead Men" or Francesca Invidus from "Blue Wraith".
Being a Dragon Age fan is so fun because your favourite characters will be
1. your favourite love interest
2. someone who is in direct opposition to person 1
3. someone who appeared in a book and then was basically never mentioned again

Mainly tripped up on DA2 stuff. Which... yeah, that feels accurate. One day I'll go back and play both it and Origins all the way through.

Just finished the last session of a three-year long #5e #DnD campaign that I ran on @startplaying.bsky.social . I've got a lot of thoughts about it I want to talk about, here and maybe elsewhere, but right now I just want to say it was a good and satisfying conclusion, and thank you to my players. 💚

1) Star Wars Expanded Universe (Non-Disney canon!)
2) Dragon Age (honestly mostly because of @ghildirthalen.bsky.social )
3) TTRPGs
List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours without prep:
1.) Dragon Age (lmao)
2.) Sailor Moon
3.) Probably Animal Crossing?

The first two I could easily do 6 hours, so I'm struggling with a 3rd.

To the people who complain that nobody wants to work? How can we work if you are GIVING THE JOBS TO COMPUTERS?
Fuck me this is bleak.
But please, do continue to use GenAI slop thumbnails for your YouTube videos, or your album art, or your book covers or whatever else. I'll continue to refuse to watch/listen/read any of them, knowing already they're not worth the time & that you're a disappointing lazy hack.

Is it perfect? No, but no game is! And it's still a good Dragon Age game, especially considering what the developers went through. Hopefully, we'll get more one day. Thank you to the #DragonAgeTheVeilguard devs!

Wow it's almost like it's actually an objectively well made game and is actually fun with amazing characters and good story telling! 😅😭 #DragonAgeTheVeilguard #DAV

Writing a GM section is hard.

So instead I wrote down every role I could imagine that a GM might play and instructed the reader to kind of figure it out themselves as they go

My first Rook, a human mage LoF named Rohan, did a lot of ice magic specifically because he wanted to be able to create walls, stairs, and even life-boats during missions around the coats of Rivain.
Altara can cook but not anything elaborate, over the years Lucanis taught her how to cook and it became a thing they enjoyed doing together, she especially enjoys baking.

Can you Rook cook?

Hey Gang! I could not be more thrilled to step behind the screen for Campaign 4 of Critical Role, and cannot wait to share all the amazing things me and this incredible team have been cooking up for you! 🐲⚔️🔮

Sadly, we didn't get to see this concept used in DAV, but this confirms that those grey pools could still be active in the Deep Roads. And without Ghilan'nain to control them... what new horrors might they unleash? DA5?

Sorry for the repost, but I was making a lot of edits to make it look nicer!

I made a simplified document to replace the #DragonAge Keep. It removes a lot of bloat and condenses the choice selection.

To make your own world states, go to File > Make a Copy.
Enjoy!

Not going to lie, I might actually start properly playing mesmer and guardian with this expansion. My main will always be ranger, though... and Galeshot is looking pretty nice, not going to lie.

After much speculation , the time for illumination is now! Check our news update for more about the mesmer, ranger, and guardian elite specializations, and stay tuned for closer looks at more in the coming weeks: www.guildwars2.com/news/elite-s...

Anyone feels like working on their Dragon Age Keep? And wanted DATV to have it's own section too? I got you!👀

I shared this template before, but I just made it for Google Sheets too, & both are now available for free on my Ko-fi!

Okay, if I've done this right, then.... three archers of different skill-sets with even more differing personalities.... @ghildirthalen.bsky.social, this feels like a heist crew.

Here's my guess for the next @guildwars2.com elite specializations! A few are probably almost guaranteed, but I think a couple of my choices might raise eyebrows. Regardless, I'm really looking forward to what we're going to see tomorrow!
