Also what is it with Moxley and pitiful explosions?

Remember the exploding TV?

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I'd also argue that at the very least, The Fiend's first entrance against Finn Balor was better than that.

So definitely one thing!

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I'd like to point out that Randy Orton spent the entire summer torturing "legends" to the point where the four guys ganged up on Orton and helped DREW MAC win an ambulance match.

Half of them now work for a different company.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Yup, it was Christian.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Also, Matt Hardy losing all his first quarter earnings to Hangman Page means he's now Broke Matt Hardy.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

So Ethan Page debuted for AEW. Is that the signing?

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

So AEW's big surprise signing is gonna be Christian, right?

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I'm getting pretty excited about Inquisition, though. I'm finally gonna be running mage!

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

People all feeling bad for Melia but Hawke just fucking loses everyone and pretty horrifically might I add.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Act 2 finished.

Time for this shit to go off the rails.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Oh god, I'm the quest "All That Remains."

Just... this fucking quest.

This fucking quest.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I love having her and Varric in my party because they play off each other so well, and it really seems perfectly for SarcastiHawke. Problem is that the mage options are Anders or Merril.

tiddies?

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Judging by her skin color, so is she.

Ba-dum-tsh.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Shit, I wasn't paying attention and I got in the point of no return with Merrill.

I'm honestly not sure who my Hawke would romance since she's so irreverent. Maybe Isabela because tiddies?

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Also what's funny about that AEW number is that it featured a drop in the demo (.35 to .33) from last week.

AEW finally bringing in that 50+ crowd!

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Today I just learned that Elias finally has entrance music that he sings.

Which, considering his gimmick is "he's a singer" and he's been in the company for, like, seven years, is pretty funny.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Ha! I got to the scene where Varric recalls his revenge on Bartrand, where he goes one-man army and wastes enemies with one shot. It's so fucking BioWare janky, like he's supposed to spit and there's literally nothing, not even the sound of spitting.

That being said, the quest is a primary example of something I love and hate about BioWare games: how things can be radically different based on who you bring with you.

For the first run, I brought my standard party of Hawke, Isabela, Merrill, and Varric. When you finally confront Bartrand, Varric is angry, accusatory, frustrated, and Hawke has to repeatedly reason with Varric to convince him to let Bartrand live. Yet then I read online that bring Anders can make Bartrand lucid again. So curious, I redo the mission but this time with Anders, and sure enough he casts some spell on him that makes Bartrand sane for a little bit, and it's amazing how quickly Varric becomes genuinely concerned and almost forgiving about it. It's such a massive shift in tone based on a decision you'll never even think of offhand.

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

So apparently the kids really love Bobby Lashley, because for the first time since Smackdown moved to FOX, RAW beat it in the 35 and under demo.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I'm predicting in the 800ks for NXT and consistently over a million for AEW.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I'm Legit surprised they didn't drag it out to Fast Lane.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Orton vs Fake Orton at Summerslam!

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

If it was always their intention then they did it rather poorly.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I mean you meet a bunch of Qunari enemies and if Sten is taken to the Fade, then he's seen hanging out with a bunch of his fellow Qunari. Which I believe just look like kinda normal humans.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

So some random thoughts:

I generally like the elf redesign. I know people threw a fit about them being "ugly" but the whole point is that if the characters were just humans with pointy ears (like their DA:O design) then the whole "elves are second class citizens" plot point seems pretty lame. Giving them unique, distinct features was a good choice.

The Qunari, however, I don't like at all. The idea of any person joining the Qunari by simply following the Qun was pretty cool, but then making it so that it was also a different race seems largely pointless, and the design itself isn't that great, either. Sten was a great character because it was just a big dude that had a very strict belief system, but thanks to the retcon he is a special "hornless" character.

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

So yeah, I didn't mean to abandon this topic but I'm heading into my third week of working 55-60 hours so I'm stressed out.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Ah. Makes sense.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I would argue that firing a bunch of people during a pandemic isn't really a promotional tactic.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I still very much like Merrill.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

So Merrill tried to murder me in the Fade because a demon told her to.

I'm gonna cross her name off the list of potential romance partners. Technically Isabella and Hawke already boned but that's available no matter what.

That's kind of a poor yardstick. I'm sure plenty of radicals don't vote since they recognize voting as a pointless endeavor

Considering what our last president did, anyone that sincerely believes that is an idiot.

So yeah, I think I hit 33 hours when I finished DAO and beat Awakening in 10 hours despite both supposedly being considerably longer.

I've just hit 24 hours and I just barely started act 2 of DA2. Granted I did do the Legacy DLC, but that added only 2 hours, maybe 3 tops.

Question: Are there any sorts of metrics that are good indicators of a player's defensive prowess, or does one typically just have to use their eyes?

There's all-encompassing stats like defensive rating and defensive win shares. There's also websites that analyze individual play but they cost money. A good indicator of a good defensive player can be stocks (combined total of blocks and steals) being over 3.0.

Joe Biden tackling the important issues:

I don't think Bernie would be more favorable than Biden because Bernie generally trailed Biden in favorability during the primaries.

Bethany just died when I took her to the Deep Roads, you can have her join the Wardens?

Yes but only if Anders is there to do the Joining.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Welp, did the Deep Road Expedition and lost Bethany to the Circle (I wanted to punch Cullen in his stupid fucking face but the game wouldn't let me).

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

What if the plan is Lashley/Lesnar and Sheamus/DREW MAC is happening at WM instead of Fastlane?

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I mean the end goal seems to be Lashley vs. DREW MAC. They might not even bother with a Sheamus blowoff match.

Lashley wins next week and its good

He doesnt and itll probably be bad

I gotta assume they're gonna drag it out to Fastlane so its gonna be bad.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I'm confused at what you're talking about.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

I mean all the info give in DA:O basically makes it sound pretty horrible.

What gets me is the whole "we have to keep the Joining a secret" when it feels like any disillusioned Warden could blow the cover on the whole thing.

---

TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.

Finished Legacy, I forgot how hard that fight with Corypheus was. Sided with Janeka this time, not that it really matters in the long run. It's kinda crazy they ended up making him the main antagonist of DA:I.

Now to make one big decision: do I take Bethany with me and have her join the Grey Wardens due to events, or do I leave her behind and she finally joins the Circle?
