What did you do today in DA? [Spoilers]

I, too, derive great satisfaction from making Vivienne wear ugly armor that doesn't change into her personal style.

You did recreate her, tho

Played some chess with Cullen and then ventured to the Western Approach:
- Conquered the Griffon Wing Keep.
- Done a few quests for professor Frederic of Serault, including retrieving an ancient manuscript from the Still ruins and hunting down the Abyssal High Dragon (for the first time i had some kind of bug that turned the dragon immortal after depleting all her health bar  , i had to reload and start the fight again).
- Travelled to Coracavus, closed the Darkspawn entrance, fought three Giants and captured Servis.
- Confronted Erimond in the ancient tower before he fled to Adamant Fortress.

I finished doing the stuff in the Forbidden Oasis (aka Rift closing and shard collections) and I had enough shards to open two doors (well three with the main entrance). I choose fire, because I feared the ice door was going to not like all my winter based spells selection.

After that I went to the Wet Coast to find some wardens trinkets they left behind and what happened to some inquisition soldiers. Also, pick-up a merc bandit, they now drink Haven meads instead of whatever was in those casks. I dealt with some bandits/not-bandits too (they work for me now) and I got stonewalled by a stone door (you can't set down the operation flag until you get Skyhold). A few more things left to do on that map because it's all post Skyhold.

Back at Haven, I think Blackwall flirted with me. 

Next I'm going to the mire, to, again, found out what happened to some inquisition soldiers. Why do they always get in trouble?

I have the Mercernary section of the Hinterland left to do too. Then I have to pick between Mages or Templars (although I prefer thinking of it as Samson vs Calpernia and Calpernia wins every time).

I had some hilarious banter between Sera and Vivienne. I'm starting to think Vivi decided Sera was some insignificant fungus she can entertain with wits and crazy stories. Have no fear Sera, Vivi is still wearing some awful looking clothes and probably don't sleep at night.

So, people with Nvidia cards, which filters do you use for DAI. I have been tweaking around the GeForce Experience ones, but can't find something better than just the default "Sharpen+" one.

Oh, I didn't mean for screenshots. I meant for improving the gameplay graphics. The Sharpen+ filter improves the details on everything, including faces, armor, surfaces, etc. It's just a bit wonky on water, but it's not a bad trade off. Playing for a while with it makes playing without it feel very blurry.

Was wondering if anyone found good combinations with the other filters that improve the image further.

Also, Sharpen+ generally does wonders on older games, including really good results in SWTOR.

It's a GeForce Experience feature. You have to go into the settings of GeForce Experience and make sure the "experimental features" is enabled - I think it's a toggle/tick there near the "About" message in the Settings window.

Then the default activation in a game is with Alt+F3 for the filter menu (unless you changed the hotkeys) or through the GeForce Experience ingame overlay menus (the overlay should be enabled).

When the filter menu is open, you just click "Add" and it offers a variety of filters. Pick the Sharpen+ and it activates. You can do it at any time, turning it on and off from the selection options in the same menu, as it doesn't pause or interfere with cutscenes or gameplay. That way you can compare image changes directly as you look at the screen.

Once you activate the filter for a game, it remembers it and you don't have to activate it again on next game starts, until you manually turn it off.

An elf breeding with a none-elf result in a non-elf looking hybrid. Alistair wouldn't exist otherwise. Also, Sandal is rumored to be a elf-dwarf hybrid.

It's been hinted at Qunari being a mutated species via dragon blood. Considering the pointed ears, the starting point was probably elves.

Actually, there are two basic things that are always true in Dragon Age: the apostate did it! and Ancient Elves are responsible!. DAI was both colliding.
