Finished the game. Sad thoughts and replays [Full spoilers]

I had the Davrin/Harding situation spoiled unfortunately. Everything else was still a surprise like the nonsensical Varric twist I didn't see coming because it was so dumb, I guess. The whole unearned regret melodrama actually made me almost laugh and not cry.

I sacrificed Davrin, didn't know Assan would also die. Still don't regret it. Davrin has an expiration date as a warden and Harding just got together with Taash and has a possibly happy future. Also Davrin was all about the heroic sacrifice. Sucks about his boy but as much as I love animals I don't rate them higher than a human life unless that human is a terrible person.

Nobody else died, Strife was hurt but apparently survived. I already forgot who I assigned to what exactly. Neve did the wards?? (which looked like it would fail for a moment but it went fine after all), sent Taash to fight the juggernaut, I believe. Lucanis I sent as a mage killer to do his name justice.

What confuses me is that Bellara got kidnapped but internet says the person assigned to the wards gets taken. So now I'm confused. Unless I'm confusing two different situations.
In any case, very glad I didn't miss out on the Neve romance scene. I assume because she can be taken you get another "I love you" moment later in case she wasn't around for the final lighthouse night. Having that moment twice is super weird though. Man, I would have been so pissed off if I screwed that up unknowingly. The Neve romance was the only thing besides Solas I thought was we'll written.

Talked Solas down with the help of ghost Mythal. My Lavellan romanced Solas but Rook told her to walk away and not try to fix this broken mass murderer and go down with him. So he went alone.

The ending was mostly a shrug for me. The least emotional BioWare game for me, no wait, I think that was Andromeda.
I don't know if it's my dislike for the writing in general or how forced all the emotions feel. Way too melodramatic.

So no crying, I was also never into the Solas romance but will watch it play out on YT, I guess.
I also want to reload the last save and trick Solas just to see his face.

I'm glad we did get an ending to the elven business, I hate unfinished stories, so now I can put this franchise and BioWare as a studio behind me, but can't say I'm satisfied with it. No vengeful Mythal, barely any relevance of her or Morrigan was a major disappointment for me. They are both my favorite characters and the game did nothing much with them.
Everything about the storytelling of the actual main plot feels way too rushed while the game spent an eternity on mind numbing companion fluff. Terrible balancing.

The endgame did in no way make up for the rest of the game. Even SkillUp claimed the final few hours were strong. I thought they were well executed but absolutely not worth the other 90 or so hours it took me to get there.
