Behold purported "Meritocracy" in action. The dumbest shits rose to the top on the basis of their willingness to support or turn a blind eye to each other's crimes.

Kissed Invisigal. Have to kiss Blonde Blazer in the next playthrough.
Though I suspect that my other choices will remain similar. Helping Waterboy at that point just feels right.
Trusting Visi seems to be the most important part though.

There is one point where the game was definitely shaming players first save scumming and/or using walkthroughs.

So far, I have gone to the movies with Invisigal, kept Sonar, and brought Water Boy onto the team. And there was a big bombshell dropped on the team at 3 AM over tacos.

Any wild theories you want to share before the finale whiz Wednesday?
I'm really enjoying it, which is odd because Telltale games were not really my thing.

Originally I dragged it out. Now I am trying to rush. Once I realized how much potential Cole approval there is in doing the Hinterlands quests with him recruited.

Quebec at least has ports. Alberta is completely landlocked and has 2 possible trading partners. I'm sure trade negotiations would go smoothly.

The ability to word the question is useful. Instead of the separatists putting forward a question with lots of language about 'protecting Alberta's prosperity' or something similar, this will be the question if it comes to a plebiscite.

I have played mage, but never finished a run as a mage in any DA. I like warrior or rogue gameplay more.

Not really.
The only change I would admit to is that it feels weird to play anything but an elf. The relevance of the revelations about ancient elves and the Creators don't hit the same if you are playing Cadash or Adaar.

Vivienne. She's an amazing character, but her view of normal is so warped by Orlais and The Game I will never trust her an inch.

Putin may have decided to give a lecture on Syria's history as an Orthodox province of the Eastern Roman Empire. Can't imagine how that might offend a Syrian Muslim former rebel.

Construction debris. It often gets left behind by builders and just buried in back yards.
Doing some work on someone's backyard I dug up the broken remnants of a toilet. Guessing it broke trying to get it into the house and got buried in the backyard.

A. Grey Warden storyline hits so much harder when Rook is a Warden.
Plus, the early game armors leave Rook barefoot, and I'd rather be Blight resistant in those pools of Blight or when kicking a hurlock off a cliff.

Whereas Anders took any friendly line as a sign of romantic interest. You needed to be rude to shut him down.
Which is probably accurate to experiences of pushy guys, but wasn't the most fun to experience.

They went back to set orientations for Inquisition, then back to everyone being bi for Veilguard. The rage at Cassandra being straight was something to see a decade ago.
I feel like Dorian was pretty well handled. He throws some lines but if the male Inky was friendly but not flirty backs off.

Boar taint can be broken down by soaking in an acid like vinegar or pickle juice. Either as part of a marinade or as a brine before smoking hams.
This is a problem for how most north Americans eat meat, with refrigerated meat and little preparation, but it can be handled.
