Merrill is awesome.

Bioware have this thing of having awesome female VAs for the protagonist but not very good male ones.

And yeah, the British female voice is one of the best player voices in gaming period. She did a phenomenal job. The male voices are just OK.


English female voice*

English is still British.

White true there is no British accent as England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland all have their own accents and just England alone has tons of accents. But yea it's more to do with the UK being four countries and Americans just thinking it's just English accents for all four of them a lot of the time.

Well, male Ryder in Andromeda sounds leagues better than the female one, but Andromeda was.... Yeah

MaleShep was good. Hell, paragon MaleShep at the end of Project Overlord was fucking scary. Like, FemShep sounded mad but he sounded like he really would follow through on his threat.

N/A, didn't play it.

When I get to play it I might enjoy it though. I mean, DA2 lowered my expectations so much, and I still manage to call it decent. Inquisition can't possibly be worse, right?

Inky has good characters, dialogue and combat; the plot itself is okay. It's really all the lame-ass sidequests and in-betweener stuff that makes the game drag. Also, a lot of mage clothes look terrible, which is hard to stomach early on.

Enjoyed it the first time around, really enjoyed it the second time with the DLC, can't ever play it again. I tried after a thread was posted here about the game a month or two ago and gave up before the Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts mission. The combat is a slog and the side/collection quests - while I acknowledge the usual counter argument - are a big negative. The game just feels like a chore at this point but I guess I got two playthroughs out of it before I got to this point so I shouldn't complain too much.

Forgot to say, I feel like there's a lack of good variety for any of the classes. I've got the most experience with rogues and I feel like there's two armour sets in the whole game; short coat or slightly longer coat.

Which isn't too terrible once silverite is a thing. Removes class restrictions and allows mages to wear heavy armor lol. But tier 3 and 4 gear for all classes basically looks the same. Armored trench coats.

That was a problem in general for everything customizable, including the Inquisitor. Everything ended up looking the same.

I hated how everything tier 3 and 4 for inquisition is all different types of coat. The companions all had better looks with the same gear.

Damn, just got to the part in Trespasser where Iron Bull shows up as a Qunari agent and you have to kill him. I wonder if that part changes depending on relationship levels and stuff. (I never really used Bull the whole game, and probably skipped his companion quests, so that may have factored into it.)

It's related to his companion quest. I won't say anymore than that

I still remember the convo he had where he whined at Sera for killstealing.
Also Iron Bull's death made it harder for other Qunari mercs to live in the land afterwards. Thanks, Obullma!.
Also also foreshadowing Tevinter goodness in DA4? I'll be cross if Dorian doesn't come back.

Man, I've been watching some funny-ass compilation videos. The one where the Inquisitor is a dick to everyone is gold.

Highlight has to be:

Vivienne: You sabotaged my formula. Why?
Inky: You're manipulative and shallow, and I wanted you to fail.

I'm doing this current playthrough as a dick. It's fucking hilarious. You're not even evil or anything, just an asshole to everyone for no reason. It's kind of like playing the game as someone who really didn't want the job but had it forced on him so he makes everyone resent it as much as he can.

Yeah, I can see why multiplayer is mostly dead -- generic maps, boring pickups within the levels, most of the classes you want to play are locked from the start, etc. Still, once I got a full party (of randoms lol) it was a lot funner...and not just because they were 10+ levels higher than me.

I hope I can get the "have Travel Light on for 'In Hushed Whispers'" trophy after speaking to Fiona but before discovering Redcliffe. Probably won't, but I used the golden nug to get god-tier schematics, so it shouldn't be a big deal anyway. The worst part is not even using Dorian this playthrough.

Yesss, the achievement popped after deciding whether the mages were conscripts or allies. It was funny how Dorian muscled his way into the party with garbage equipment when I'd made a bunch of good crap for Solas.

I am REALLY enjoying the Pyro necromancer build. Most things don't stay alive long enough for the virulent walking bomb upgrade to be worth it, so the inward detonation one is what I went with, and Holy shit it makes short work of elites and stuff. There's so many explosions and aoe damage everywhere. I love it so much. Plus near constant health and mana regenerate when enemies die. I put sigil of the great bear on and i can basically spam shit. With pyromancer skill, i can sometimes get two walking bombs off in a row.
