Can anyone help me with a reason why my internet protection software is wary of the Dragon Age: Wiki site. It receives a caution label, which is explained as the following: Websites rated "Caution" may have a small number of threats and annoyances, but are not considered dangerous enough to warrant a red "Warning". Proceed with caution. This has been the case for some months now but I certainly didn't have any problems with the site in the past. So what sort of threats or annoyances might be there? Normally, when this sort of thing occurs, the site resolves the issue within a few weeks and it is flagged green again but I've been waiting on the Wiki to do this for some time now but no action has been taken. Any ideas?
What is the URL in question? ie: https:// ..... And what is the name of your protection software?
Sometimes sites forget to renew their certificates......

Copy and remove the space between hppts: and the //, then paste it on the url bar of your browser
The one you provided is a re-direct to viglink.com which is an ad and tracker server.... which in turn will re-direct you to the URL you want..
The mechanic is very similar to how BSN presents a link. You give it a name and underneath is the actual link. In this case the name also happens to be the same as your target URL name../ I know, it's sneaky.
Here is the actual URL you invoke: http://redirect.viglink.com/?key=71fe2139a887ad501313cd8cce3053c5&subId=6576594&u=https%3A//dragonage.fandom.com/wiki/Dragon_Age_Wiki. It's not a secure connection ie:-> https rather it's the old http which is not a secure connection.

So what do we think? No proper news until N7 day? Hard to say. They do surprise us every once in a blue moon... For DA:D, We could see more short stories on DA Day, then likely a trailer at the Game Awards. I'm sure information will continue to trickle in on DA: Absolution. If they are working on DA:O remaster/remake, we could hear about that at any time. It'll just depend on when they plan to launch it (pre- or post-DA:D). I expect very little on the Mass Effect 5 project other than the odd bone they'll toss as a reminder they're working on it. We'll just have to wait and see if the Mass Effect TV series gets greenlit. If that's given the go-ahead, that's something we might hear on an N7 Day.

The advent of series like the Mandalorian and even Halo gives me some optimism that studios are more willing to engage in stories with these highly sci-fi settings, along with building it with the necessary CGI/Costumes/FX to visualize the various alien elements as well.

For DA:D, We could see more short stories on DA Day, then likely a trailer at the Game Awards. I'm sure information will continue to trickle in on DA: Absolution. Hmm, I wonder about this. I would imagine that the deal with Netflix must have some degree of co-operation so that they don't take focus away from the series, so that would suggest any further major announcements on the game, such as a full trailer, would be delayed at least until after the first episode has aired. Is that anticipated to be before or after the Game Awards? However, once the series is up and running, I can also see Bioware wanting to fully capitalise on it for the marketing of DAD, so if not in December then possibly something for the New Year? As for short stories, I'm not so sure. They were obviously intended to keep interest going when nothing else was available but the Netflix series will provide that. Also, the last set of short stories didn't actually tell us anything useful about what might be happening when we get back to Thedas, apart from a possible time skip to 9:52, which seemed a bit odd because that is eight years from the end of Trespasser, so what have Solas and the Inquisitor been doing during that time?

Since the Absolution trailer said it's coming in December 2022 my guess is Absolution releases on dec 4 Dragon age day and DAD trailer at the game awards 5 days later.

How about an algorithm that every time it reads text with DAD in it, it replaces it with DUD I sincerely believe that DAD is an obvious in-joke with all of us and the devs. The entire series, and possibly most of BioWare's work in general, is about Daddy issues. We know this, they know this. In that regard, I take it with a grin, but a knowing one. Just because it's in the title, don't take another layup in the writing department. I have Daddy issues too. My main one is I can't forget the bastard, and constantly blaming someone else for your own adult issues is understandable but not acceptable. We must grow. That said, I fully expect at least one quest that nearly smashes the 4th wall concerning this joke, and it will be good. Maybe better than the rest of the game?

Every generation blames the one before, and all of their frustrations come beating on your door, usually when you have something else demanding all of your attention. Dragon Age 2 was set in a city pushed to breaking by the influx of refugees caused by the Blight in Origins, while dealing with religious populist militant fascism. Dragon Age Inquisition grappled with a Circle Tower civil war sparked into an inferno by the actions of one refugee’s terrorist buddy, while dealing with an insane doomsday militia. Dragon Age Dreadwolf seems like it will be hunting the major donor of that militia, while dealing with….something bad? The series seems to be a protracted lesson in the law of unintended consequences.

While I have often waxed eloquent and spent way too much time thinking about the philosophical and thematic ramifications of Dragon Age and Thedas I don't think I have mused about this one too often, but you are right and hell that is essentally Solas's character in a nut shell.

Pardon my french but "Circle Tower civil war" my sweet arse.
Tower mages finally grew a backbone and revolted against their jailers (Templars). Calling that a civil war is a Bio marketing effort to increase sales. The in-game "civil war" in DA:I is a joke.
My vision for "civil war" invoked the genre of the old S&T table top war games which included the American civil war. A most recent one is Strategic Command: American Civil War. You can get many oldies for free or for 3-5 bucks at gog.com. Anyway, DA:I offered crap in regards to this "civil war". Disappointed doesn't even come close.
Bio directors ought to refrain from describing their games or mention they include anything other than "we are great at story telling and for our deep characters that you'll come to love or hate".

Dragon Age Inquisition grappled with a Circle Tower civil war sparked into an inferno by the actions of one refugee’s terrorist buddy, while dealing with an insane doomsday militia. Only a small part of it was devoted to this as it turned out and actions of the terrorist buddy didn't spark it at all but the later actions of another rogue Grey Warden, who also effectively deserted to specifically cause trouble in the Circles. They really need to keep an eye on their mages. Actually, when you think about it, most of the trouble was down to the Grey Wardens' dereliction of duty. First, they stop guarding the prison of a dangerous intelligent darkspawn; then they fail to inform the authorities that he has escaped or track him down themselves; lastly they all start hearing the Calling and instead of thinking "that's odd", perhaps we should consider this carefully, instead they accept the advice of the first dodgy mage who strangely enough knows of their predicament. Meanwhile, prior to this debacle our Hero decided searching the far west for a mythical "cure" was more important than the duty they had sworn to uphold. Plus the other Wardens did't bother tracking down deserter mages even though I should imagine that was one of the conditions of being able to recruit them in the first place, leading to one blowing up a Chantry cathedral and another instigating a rebellion that caused death and destruction across southern Thedas. Good work Wardens.

[Establishment:] Of course you are my bright little star, I've miles And miles Of files Pretty files of your forefather's fruit and now to suit our great computer, You're magnetic ink.
[First Man:] I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be.
[Inner Man:] There you go man, keep as cool as you can. Face piles And piles Of trials With smiles. It riles them to believe that you perceive the web they weave And keep on thinking free.
