I have to admit I am getting impatient to finish this PT but then the game throws up quests like Aveline and Donnick's walk on the coast and the related comments from Hawke and crew and then the scenes back in the barracks and I am energised again. Also did Varric's mission in Bartrands Mansion and said don't kill him then Varric made the case for killing him so Hawke said go for it. Tracked down Hadriana with Fenris and Hawke got a new servant. Found Javaris after killing a million or more of his guards. man he must be loaded, didn't kill him. Headed back to Kirkwall and stopped the gas attack and killed the crazy elf. Pic's Bartand and Varric Aveline and Donnick + Hawke The grumpy Horned One and the crazy Elf The Magisters Apprentice and the Slave/Servant girl

dazk here's the image for which Hawke corresponds to which family preset
for my canon Hawke I use preset 6 with fair skin because I like Carver with longer hair, for my YouTube one I use preset 2 (technically 1 after the default one) which gives you the default family Thank you that is really useful, I have saved it for a future playthroughs. I have not changed from default Hawke at this stage, I played my recreated Rogue Human Noble Male PT as default Hawke so now thinking maybe I'll just stick with the default female for this PT. But we'll see. Yeah I don't usuall yworry about how the other famil ymembers look as I'm not really staring at them I'm mostly focused on my own character. Becaus eat theend of the da yth e ohte rfamil ymembers are jus tcompanions t ome. Though I do prefer Bethany over Carver though of the 2. Bu tgenerally I le tthe gam eqand th eclass aI am decide whic hone I get becaus ethe game is fun either way.

Fought a Varterral, got a tool for Merrill. Spoke to The Viscount as Seamus had run off again, got side tracked. Helped Anders with stopping the "Tranquil Solution" and helped Anders not lose the plot. According to Ella the mage Andraste must have put me there, Ser Alrik probably didn't agree but he's dead so can't ask him. Busted a guard for turning a blind eye. Killed Petrice's ex-bodyguard Ser Varnell for killing a Qunari delegation. Mum got some Lillies and disappeared, found the guy murdering women and mum. How do you get Gaspard Du Puis to show up I always keep expecting him but he never arrives? Spoke to The Arishok who said Seamus went to the Chantry, went to the Chantry and Mother Petrice tried to set Swift up but got an arrow to the heart and the head. So Sad NOT. Isabela and Aveline both had simultaneous crisis, Isabela got preference because and she came and consoled Swift after Leandra died. Went looking for Wall-Eyed Sam and had to stop playing. Pics

So finished Act 2 yesterday, Arishok is dead and on Easy the fight is indeed easy, Miasmic Flask or whatever it's called, equals stunned Arishok, Backstab, Assassinate and Twin Fangs and all over. The Arishok has his Terminator moment Started Act 3 did all the go see the companion quests and finished Sebastien's, funny scene as I had Isabella with me when we met Lelliana due to a certain threesome in DAO. Remained Neutral when Fenris decided what to do with his sister, she died.

So apparently Gamlen made a baby or Charade is REALLY desperate for any father at all. Either that or Swift's Mabari sired a Human!!!!!! Killed Evet of Evet's Marauders which started a fair bit of Synchronised Fighting with Isabela Locked in Isabela's romance after dealing with Castillon (took the ship option) and Swift got in on some action with her and Zevran. Lots of other stuff done as well, finished the Aweirgan scrolls, finished The Noble support quest, and started Anders Fetch quest.

I think he has set a good example for the human Gamlen and if Charade yells Gamlen needing help at least someone useful will turn up.

I like to think that (human)Gamlen finally cleans up his act after learning Charade exists. He (at least imo.) seems like the type to go through hell and high water if he really cares. I mean, he seems genuine enough when talking to her at the very least.

Yeah and he is genuinely distressed by Leandra's disappearance and death as well. He actually pays Hawke a nice compliment too.

Have had little time to play the last few days so couldn't be bothered posting but getting slowly through Act 3. Did the quest for Meredith to hunt down Huon, (died), Evelina (died) and after suggesting that Isabela sleep with Emile I let him go and he got (I hope) on the first boat out of Dodge. Told Meredith it was all her fault re the Mages and she didn't care. Met with King Alistair, can you get the game to recognise that he is married to Anora? Merrill and Isabella had things to say to him as did Aveline and he agreed Meredith was an ass. Pic's

Finished the main story for DA2, protected the mages and killed crazy old Meredith. Even at the end Cullen realised she had lost the plot and once again I was pissed off with the whole Orsino metamorphosis it just makes no sense whatsoever. Not sure whether to do Legacy or not, well at least not straight away mainly as I really hate the final battle. Will play some AC Odyssey today I think and see how I feel tomorrow about doing the DLC for DA2. Pic's You just had to do it didn't Anders Oh Well Knife in the back Sisterly Love before the big battle Isabela Love before the big fight Cullen gets the memo, who knows when I play DAI next as a female Inquisitor maybe I'll romance him for the first time. Meredith decides to replace the broken statues with one of herself.

I mean, he seems genuine enough when talking to her at the very least. Yeah and he is genuinely distressed by Leandra's disappearance and death as well. He actually pays Hawke a nice compliment too. Not only this. A very important thing, in my opinion, in the very beginning Gamlen had a choice not to show up at all but he still came. Found a way how to pay so his family (plus Aveline) could stay in the city (too much money to bribe so found what he could - work for 1 year for a gang), at his place. That Gamlen is an ass, lost all money, lied, not a pleasant person to talk to - sure. Another noticeable thing - after the Deep Roads Gamlen stayed at his place in the Lowtown instead of asking for money or insisting on his moving to that rich estate in the Hightown. He just met with his sister once a week at his place and the rest things you mentioned (sister's disappearance, death, sent news to Beth/Carver as Hawke has enough problems, compliments, confessions). Even Hawke's teammates advised Charade first meet Gamlen and after decide as it would not hurt and Gamlen is a family (I remember Fenris and Aveline told that, not sure about the rest as there are priorities in the game who is the first to talk or to do something). I really like that quest with his daughter Charade, as I can do something for Gamlen for what he has done - I mean "help-part" as his actions showed Gamlen actualy cared. We can see a part of the conversation between Charade and Gamlen, his reaction, how he talks, ask Gamlen about fatherhood. Gamlen is still Gamlen with his behavior and manners, but at least it seems he really liked to learn he has a daughter. And it might make him more responsible and hopefully change his life for better (he had a family, but not his own children - he himself mentioned that part).

It's been sooo long since I played ANY Dragon Age. But I got that hankerin'. Back when I finished Inquisition for the 9th time, I made a Dalish Elf boy rogue named Thorn, ran him through his start and parked him at Ostagar where he could wait for his turn in the spotlight. In the years since then, my hard drive died and Thorn has been forever lost, to live on only in The Keep now. So Thorn 2.0 it is. I made him a warrior this time, mostly because my first playthrough of this game was with a warrior and I had no idea what I was doing and it didn't gel very well with it. But I do know what I'm doing this time (lol) so I'll give warrior another chance. Currently sitting on the bridge in Lothering just after intimidating the bandits on it to giving me their money. Grey Wardens do what ever it takes to fight the Blight after all. Not sure if Thorn 2.0 can even be loaded in to the Keep at this point, but it hardly matters I'll alter the default hero in to him.

I am rolling through Act 1 with a diplomatic Hawke, for a change. It feels weird. Snarky Hawke just seems more lively. I've also started a new mage in DAO named Lazzaro. He came to Fereleden by way of Italy.

Just tried to download DAO on the EA App (Fu$%ing piece of crap) on my new Windows 11 PC and it keeps getting a download error at 14% of Preparing. Tried clearing the cache and reinstalling the EA App but same result.
I had no problem downloading or playing the game on my old Windows 10 PC recently.
Has anyone else experienced this and have a solution?

Wow, so much. Just started a Trevelyan mage. He doesn't hate Circles, got along fine with the Templars of Ostwick, but he'd rather not be bothered being locked down. Sure, his family gets him more freedom than some others but he wants it all. Therefore, Vivienne will not be recruited. Similarly, after the IB betrayal from my last run, he's also not going to be on Team Inquisitor. If we have to fight then it least won't be backstabbing. I have a softer spot for Solas since, if you play it right, he has a genuine affection for the Inquisitor and definitely feels sorrow over having to let him die. Anyway, visited Val Royeaux. Watched a "Revered Mother" get swatted down by in incredible asshole - a Templar. Roaming the Hinterlands, I saw some things. Templars killed someone's normal human husband and stole his wedding ring. These same Templars had a note saying they intended to wipe mages from the planet. Templars burned down a house where a couple of apostates hid. Did said apostates do anything to deserve it? No idea but it happened. Basically, I can't in good conscious ally with the Templars. Yeah, Commander Cullen rocks, but he's also an ex-Templar and that means something. Now, the mages made some dumbass decision allying themselves with a magister from Tevinter. Thing is, they did it out of fear and they, at least, did not engage in atrocities across the land like the Templars - not even just the rogue Templars, but Lord Seeker Lucius. The mage cult hiding away were also keeping to themselves. Templars may have honest good people in their ranks but unfortunately they haven't run off to form their own separate, non-violent groups. And anyway, there's a weird plot going on that involves a handsome mage from Tevinter.
Edit: And I forgot. Templars killed Ritts (which I never knew was possible) because she was having a picnic with a mage. Ritts is one of my people and I don't take kindly to it.

I couldn't do a single other thing but it did allow me to successfully install it. My suggestion is to try the same trick.

Thanks for that, it is ridiculous that they could release such a half assed piece of rubbish. I'll see if I can find a way to download Origin from somewhere. Alternately I bought the Bioware Bundle on Steamm and will start playing it on there instead but have never used MODS when using Steam. EDITTried DAO again, same issue stopped at 14%. Tried DA2 and it SAID it downloaded the game but the download failed to download "Legacy" installed some other DLC and then failed on a few others. tried repairing it and clearing the Cache and nothing. tried re-downloading the game and this time it failed on Mark of The Assassin and a few others. Tried to launch DA2 through the EA App, would not launch. Tried from the Desktop shortcut and it said their was a save Synch. error ignored it but it said it could not find any local saves. Looked there was no Dragon Age 2 folder in the Bioware folder, so copied my backed up save files. Game launched but could not play it as it said DLC was missing. Lodged another issue with EA. Do not want to waste anymore time on it ATM, might try on Steam but saw people are having similar issues with Steam.

Thorn and the gang helped save Redcliffe village, found the boy on the closet and told him to get back in to the chantry. I completely spaced on what's special about him. I see in the keep there's some sword or some such, eh, 4 play throughs deep I'm sure I've completed the quest in a previous one. Connor is dead. I prefer the Isolde sacrifice, I do not not like her very much at ALL, but I did that last run through. I see in the keep (notes for future me): I have never not helped prepare and fight for Redcliffe village.I have never made a deal with Connor's demon. I believe this is possible, but only as a mage? This is troubling, because my next run through I was hoping to run through as a dwarf noble (another character I parked at Ostagar to wait their turn and then lost to tech issues). I don't have enough room in the keep for TWO more playthroughs, just the one empty spot Anyway, back at camp: Bow chika wow wow If memory serves Loghain hiring Zev is a random event and I got it straight away when heading towards the circle. Got to the circle, decided to go get Shale instead, and got the Zev encounter: I do not know which mod is making the mage attire so tawdry. (I downloaded one of the collections from the nexus just to jazz it up a bit) I need to find Lilliana something else to wear. I'm going to chuckle when I do get to the circle and see all the mages wearing that.
I'm not sure that I've ever just outright killed Zev. It's possible I haven't killed any of the companions actually, besides Alistair sacrificing himself. Maybe I've left Sten in the cage? I'm sure I have world states with many dead d/a companions in the keep, but not many of those I've actually played through. I can sense the next HoF of mine being the...Hell...of Ferelden? Anyways, Shale. Shale is one of my all time favourites. I do have a playthrough of Shale dead and one of her just not recruited, so Shale can be with me always through every future game I play. This quest ended with Mathias and Amelia both alive, Mathias possessed. I have not kept Amelia alive yet let Mathias get possessed and then kill him. Fun for next playthrough. That's it for the last few game session's I've had. I've been thinking about the ending of this run: Do I let Loghain sacrifice himself like he wants or Do I let Thorn sacrifice himself and leave Morrigan alone with human Keiran? I'm assuming the second one works with a Mahariel HOF. If so that ending makes the most sense considering I am romancing Morrigan this run. I also like Loghain to be warden canonically soo..until next time!
