Played DAI and DAV twice-ish, so Leliana, Isabela, Josephine, Sera, Taash, and Emmrich.

The last two were both supposed to be Harding, but my Rooks thwarted my plans. I didn’t really want to romance anyone in DAI (except Harding) - I did it so I could get Bull and Dorian together.

Also, props to whoever designed this poster in the high school in 1000xResist.
From the game 1000xResist. A poster that says "Are you sure you are just sad?" Below that there are two images of a person sitting in a chair leaning forward with their hands over their face as if they're crying. The one on the left has the words "Stress Anxiety Depression" beneath it. The word "or" separates the images. On the right, the text below the image is "Deadly Disease". The left side of the design says "Disease Control Center" at the top, and "Call (00X) 99X-98XX Contact our officers by phone for further information and guidance. Thank you for your cooperation."

Just finished 1000xResist and processing lots of feelings. Always good when a game gives you goosebumps at the end.

From the game 1000xResist. A dark room with bright lights piercing through a haze toward the viewer. Two figures are approaching, mostly in shadow due to the light behind their backs, but they're wearing helmets and the visor portion on each is lit up. The figure on the left has a yellow visor and is lifting their hand toward the viewer, the right figure has a red visor. The feeling is ominous. In the lower left it says "02" and "Year 2048 CE". A person in blue in the foreground looks out through a distant opening in a cave toward a bright white circular design in the air. The light is from the distance is red, and rays of light seem to be emanating from the circle. The text at the lower left says "00" and "a star and a star". A figure in shadow in the foreground looks toward a large blurry image of a person in a blue uniform. The word TRAITOR is written in large letters across the image in red, and again smaller in purple lower down on the image. The image is almost entirely black, with just the blue outline of a person leaning against a wall. The person's hands are clasped in front of them, and they're looking toward the ground. It's a sad or thoughtful pose.

Evka and Antoine are relationship goals. Love them. Love the way they look at each other.

#veilguard #virtualphotography
Evka and Antoine from Dragon Age: The Veilguard are standing beside each other, both smiling and looking at the other with love. Evka holds a large maul over her right shoulder and Antoine holds a bow in his left hand. Evka stands in the foreground on the right, looking at someone we can't see off to the left, while Antoine stands in the background to the left and gazes with love at Evka. Antoine and Evka are crouched and both looking at blue and purple flowers in the foreground to the left. Antoine and Evka stand side by side and smile at each other.

Great vid! I found it so perplexing that DAV let my Rook have top surgery scars, but if I wanted them to have a flat chest with those scars I had to choose the masculine body. The other nonbinary options in the game have all been great, but I had some conflicted feelings in the character creator.

The Steam wrap up got me nostalgic for Horizon Forbidden West, so here are some NPCs I loved. This game put so much care and effort into their character design and I loved to stop and watch what they'd do. So much happens in the background that has no effect on gameplay.

#hfw #virtualphotography
A warrior in full protective gear stands in the center looking to the right, holding a bow and arrow. His headdress and armbands are ornamented with feathers on each side. The light is muted, and he appears to be looking determinedly into the sunset. There are pink clouds and blue sky behind him, as well as some trees in the background. A worker stands at the right of the image, looking to the left. She wears gloves and a helmet that's pushed up on her head so her face is visible. She's carrying a bucket. In the background are tents and ashes float in the foregrounds. A young boy stands at the center of the image, holding a large stick over his left shoulder and looking down to the left. He has elaborate facepaint covering most of his face. His expression seems sad and stressed. The background is blurry but features brightly colored designs in pink, blue, and orange. An extremely photogenic couple stands at the center of the image. On the right is a woman with her arms crossed, looking up and to the right with a pleased expression on her face. The man to her left has his right arm propped on her shoulder and looks directly into the camera. Both characters wear face and body paint, predominantly blue with red and white accents. They are partially shaded, and there is vegetation in the background.

My fave game for 2024 was probably Horizon Forbidden West. After I finished that game I went back in and spent 40 more hours running around and playing with photomode because I wasn't ready for it to end. All of my top 5 games were first time playthroughs, so this year will be hard to top.
Text says "Most Played Games: By % of Playtime." Five images are below this text, along with the percent of time that game was played. From left to right, Horizon Forbidden West at 20%, Dragon Age Inquisition at 18%, Dragon Age Veilguard at 14%, Mass Effect Legendary Edition at 11%, and Mass Effect Andromeda at 8%.

Starting a new Veilguard playthrough because my brain isn't done with this game. First run was with a Shadow Dragon Elf Rogue, so I'm going with a Mourn Watch Dwarf Warrior this time. I loved the Shadow Dragons and they're still my top choice, but the variety should help keep it interesting.

I loved these tree people figures in Arlathan so much. So many were in horribly lit areas, or areas with weird bright magic stuff in the background, but I tried my best to capture them.

#dragonageveilguard #virtualphotography
The upper body of a figure shaped like a person but covered in bark is surrounded by foliage in autumn colors. The figure has its head bent slightly forward, looking down at its arms, which are bent at the elbows with palms facing upward. Small branches with yellow leaves grow from its shoulders and fingers. Despite the beauty of its surroundings, the figure seems hopeless. At center of image is a figure shaped like a person but covered in bark as if they’re now a tree. Its arms are raised to shield its face, with palms facing away from the body. There is a light layer of snow on the figure and the surrounding ground, and there are dead trees and what appears to be a destroyed building in the background. It evokes a sense of impending doom. A figure shaped like a person but covered in bark is kneeling and leaned forward with its elbows also on the ground. Its head is resting on one arm with its face still visible. Limbs with yellow leaves grow out of its back. The ground is all cement or carved stone. It gives a sense of despair. There are three figures shaped like people but covered in bark as if they’ve become trees. The figure in the foreground is in a running stance, with head faced forward but its right arm reaches back and holds the hand of the next figure who also appears to be running. The second figure is facing backward and its arm is outstretched behind it toward another figure farther back. Only the upper torso, arms, and head of the third figure are visible on the ground in the distance. Its arms reach toward the running figures. The first and third figure have branches with yellow leaves growing from their heads. They’re on a path surrounded by rocks and plants to each side. It feels as if these figures are fleeing, and the third has fallen behind and will never catch up.

Finally finished Veilguard after 114 hours. Loved it. Trying to stop myself from immediately playing through again with all different choices, since I probably don't have the patience to do it all over again so soon. Didn't think I was getting too emotionally attached, but oh, I was wrong.

We should attack transphobia head-on simply because it is a disgusting ideology, but if that's not enough for you, it's a system of control that stems from a patriarchal assumption about what a woman "should" be whose natural end is rigid gender roles upheld by state violence. Which seems bad!

the attacks on Ella Emhoff (as well as Lin Yu-ting and Imane Khalif) are part of what trans people have correctly warned about for a long time: the rise in transphobia will target cis women too.
