Maker's Breath.... (Official Cullen Rutherford discussion)

Alistair and Cullen need to team up if they want any chance against Fenris. But, they're too honourable for such trickery.

I imagine out of 10 games, Alistair might lose 2-3, Cullen 7-8 and Fenris none. Fenris would have that impenetrable calm and game control.

That battlements scene should be used as a treatment against gloomy, depressing days since it never fails to make me laugh.

I was very much torn between accepting the coin and asking Cullen to keep it because it's his bond with his brother and with a family he so rarely gets to see. In a way accepting it is accepting a bond with his family too. After much hesitation, Inky accepted it out of respect for his wishes as he would consider carefully before deciding to part with an item of such personal significance, also because it would put his mind a bit more at ease. Cullen has to put his entire faith and trust into our Inky's abilities, while he recognises there are plenty of miracle situations in their fight with Cory which she survives. As much as he wishes to protect her, he cannot do things instead of her. Handing that coin over to her which supposedly trice carries him through horrible situations helps him believe that he could be more with her in those difficult situations she'd encounter.

@dustyelf Thank you. As much as I love it when he flies into the passionate 'stuttering you be damned I kick you aside for pounce rawr' I favour so much all those cuddling scenes. The coin one melts me into a deeper puddle with each line. It's like you writers are fluff sadists. You slay me with cute.

phoray I haven't seen the mabari scene yet or the wedding and wicked grace is refusing to activate for me even though I've already finished Varric's Bianca quest.

At this point I'm getting close to attacking Cory's Arbor Wilds outpost, but haven't unlocked one of the maps yet or explored much of the Emerald Graves. After seeing how many DLC DA2 has, I'm suddenly unsure if Trespasser is actually a part of the game or we have to buy it separately. I'm concerned the game will end for me once I disintegrate Cory into molecules.

Phew, so I don't need to search/buy/download any extra pieces. This one compiled item makes life so much better.

I wouldn't wait until post game. Post game may let you do all the stuff you skipped, but it breaks the repeatable kiss scene. I have no idea why. But who would want to keep playing if they can't take a break to smooch their commander, eh?

*slams fist on the table*

GAME THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. Whai you steal my joy in life?

melbella What is GOTY edition and what are 'trials?'

Favourite Cullen's scene, hunh?

... Can I NOT pick just one? ^^'

Lets see..

I guess each scene has it's favourite moment for me. Brace yourself for the incoming cheesy and more cheesy lines bellow.

1st kiss : First time seeing that, I may have dropped my jaw somewhere. He gave her a surprise kiss out on the battlements, in broad DAYLIGHT while patrolmen were just passing through. I love how things switched gears quickly from him being awkward to suddenly being sure and taking control. Damn. :love:

2nd : The date by the lake. I love knowing that he values family life. And for my Lavellan, the most touching part of that scene is when he gave her something of emotional value to him. It almost felt like a promise to her, that he isn't fooling around. That he loves her for real. And I really love her reply too, "I'll keep it safe". For my Lavellan, that was the start of a promise taken and a promise given.
At this time, she's starting to consider the serious repercussion between her obligation of being First to the clan and her sa'lath (one/only love).

3rd : That 1st night together. I love how he cups her face and then seeing his hands clenched tight, LoL . Things certainly escalates quickly LoL.

4th : After the fight in the Arbor Wilds.. will not spoil you the details, but I love how his voice cracks a little in the end. Kudos for the VA for nailing that part

5th : Home coming after toasting Corypheus.

6th : Everything Cullen in Tresspasser.


But I guess.. If I HAVE to pick 1 moment from all of them. Then that moment is during Tresspasser. 1 sentence, 2 words and the things that followed after.

I think game details are broken because for DAO they're telling me to go buy Awakening and I already have Awakening.

I found some pictures.

So, the standard copy that doesn't have trespasser and other add ons looks like this:

Just to be clear I was laughing more to my self than to anyone, really..

"Yes, that's certainly me, your diligent Inquisitor and selfless Herald. Progressing the storyline for the smooches"

You two make me laugh.

Generally on a PT, I do and anything Mother Giselle is complaining about. Usually that's hungry folks in the hinterlands (which I do before visiting Val Royeux), the undead of crestwood, and the people going missing in Emprise Du Lion. I break up this slightly underwhelming questing with visits to SKyhold as needed and the two main missions: Adamant and the Winter Palace. Once both of those are done, I don't like to have much on my questing plate, because our handsome Commander is "ready to attack" on our Order and it seems kinda silly to go off and do unimportant non main mission things.

I save Descent and Jaws DLC only for special snowflake Inquisitors I adore. I always do Trespasser.

I just try to manually pace the game since it doesn't self pace. At all. I don't even think it tries. Cost of open world I guess.

I don't know if you got the Giselle scene where she disapproves of the friendship/relationship with Dorian, but she channels Wynne so hard at that moment I cringed. Hello Wynne 2.0!

I just like doing missions that get Game Recognition. The fact she stops bringing up all the Ongoing Tragedies, because I've fixed them, is satisfying
