Emily (aka Domino) Taylor pentapod Ugh I have a talk to give tomorrow and I have rewritten it at least 20 times and I'm still not happy with it but have now reached the point where I've added picture of an underwear gnome to see if it helps, so at least there's that. 😖 #argh
Electric McDangerous @a_Fat_Raccoon Hey @hanlsp , I FINALLY played through the end of Dragon Age: Inquisition(been noodling around doing side-quests and whatnot for almost 2 years now) and got a little kick when I saw your name in the credits! 😁 Thanks for helping to make such a wonderful experience.
seb hanlon @hanlsp also, in case you missed it the first time around, please enjoy this trailer for Trespasser, including @alixwiltonregan delivering some of my favorite lines in the whole series
hey, sports fans. It’s been almost 4 years since Trespasser shipped! Isn’t this a great trailer? #dragonage

Emily (aka Domino) Taylor pentapod Programmer: I'd like to observe your workflow to see if there's anything we can fix or streamline! Me: 😍 I may have a few suggestions...
Desert Island Girl @ariadnesisland If you have a chance, I had two weeny DA lore questions: Do Templar powers affect spells cast by blood magic (like fireballs cast that way, not the mind control); is necromancy like Dorian uses necessarily blood magic?
Mary Kirby @biomarykirby Yes to both
Desert Island Girl @ariadnesisland Thanks! So when Cullen says “I can accept that necromancy isn’t blood magic” in the Necromancer spec war table, is it one of those “It’s so widespread in Nevarra we turn a Chantry blind eye to it” sort of things, like phylacteries?
Mary Kirby @biomarykirby The Nevarrans consider necromancy just a standard burial practice. It's totally blood magic, but nobody would ever argue that point with the Mortalitassi.

Elle @elle_Enasalin I really wanna know all of the writers’ reactions when they realized the line “I like big boats, I cannot lie” made it into the game
Brave Ser Jo of the Boggy North @everymage_jo @patrickweekes, @biomarykirby, et al?
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes Hey, I wasn’t even on that project! But IIRC, it was @davidgaider who insisted it stay in.
Mary Kirby @biomarykirby If I recall, we pretty much all just egged @sherylchee on to write it, so...
Sheryl @sherylchee There was definitely some enabling. I put it in, then @jbhepler took it out. And then a month or two later it was back in because @davidgaider put it back.
Jennifer Hepler @jbhepler That's pretty much how I remember it.
David Gaider @davidgaider Yup. I remember thinking, "no... this cannot end here."
Brave Ser Jo of the Boggy North @everymage_jo I, for one, am very glad it didn’t!

Sanshee @teamsanshee Dragon Age Fans, we've got a dozen of our romance tarot card coaster sets from DA: Inquisition left. We have a new series of DA companion coasters coming soon, so we won't be re-stocking romance coasters for a while. So If you want a set, get yours now!
Sanshee @teamsanshee Alright Folks, Emerald Graves Nugs are officially back in stock! Pick up your newest squeaky friend today! #Bioware #Nugs 🛒https://bit.ly/2OuS5xh
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes My flight into Denver was so late that we have to eat snacks rather than grab dinner before coming back to Edmonton, and the only Nesquik the store has is Strawberry, AMA.
Paul Jason Meyer @mulwin444 AMA...ok, not missing this time...being that this year will be the 10th Anniversary of Dragon Age Origins might we expect some "impactful recognition" of this auspicious date? 😁
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes Like a post or something? Probably!
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes And now flight has me putting airplane mode on, too bad nobody thought to ask me about new Dragon Age game. See you in Edmonton! ❤️
John Epler @eplerjc WAIT I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.
Mark Darrah @biomarkdarrah Uh oh, my follower count hit 80k going the wrong way... Hmmm... And this is my top GIF:
Paul Jason Meyer @mulwin444 Quick say something "Dragon Age-y 4"...something something "Tevinter!" Something that won't trigger, you know, revenue recognition but still "spicy!" nonetheless
Mark Darrah @biomarkdarrah I will say this: We have a plot with the working name of “Tevinter of our discontent” ... ... Who am I kidding, we’ll probably ship that.
Daniel Kading @ daniel _Kading Thrilled to hear Mark say we may keep this cuz it was MINE and there is NO WAY I’m not taking credit for it.
Also lobbying to name halla-riding female Dalish cavalry “Halla-back girls”.
David Mergele @elegrem Yeah know my terms for working on this project. #DadPunNamed #GiantGlassBootOfRedJellyBeans
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes THAT WAS MINE I WANT CREDIT (Halla-back, to be clear. Tevinter was DEFINITELY yours, credit fully earned.)
Daniel Kading @ daniel _Kading dang it I -knew- it was too good to not have been taken
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes I fully support convergent evolution and I SUPPOSE I can share credit for Halla-back.
Tyler Lee @tylerd_lee Has to be a numerical 4. Only way to be consistent with the inconsitent sequentialling throught the franchise. 'T4vinter F4ever!' is my vote if marketing hasnt beaten me to it.
Mark Darrah @biomarkdarrah Dragon Age Minrathous Nights was vetoed. :’(
Emily (aka Domino) Taylor pentapod #TFW you're giving a presentation to the entire team and forget what your job title is these days. 😝 So many years, so many job titles...

John Epler @eplerjc
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes Sorry, Dan, Epler says I can’t share credit, and he’s my manager, so...
John Epler @eplerjc Not credit, Patrick. Blame. Blame for unleashing this upon an unsuspecting world.
Daniel Kading @ daniel _Kading Oh, John. John, John, John. You think this can be stopped? Why do you think Patrick & I had this debate publicly?
Patrick Weekes @patrickweekes The punvalanche has already started. It is too late for the dad jokes to vote.
