…Trust me, I would have LIKED to have played Dragon Age Inquisition all day today.
I was ACTUALLY driving everybody else* in the house everywhere else in the county, starting at 8 AM and ending at 6 PM. Every errand in the world at once, and tomorrow is another fun day in that regard. Whee…

PS: Hell yes I’m gonna play some Dragon Age Inquisition tonight. …Eventually.
*Including the cat.
Reminder to people getting Dragon Age: Inquisition next week.
A game that I expect that I will be playing pretty heavily, by the way:
…anyway, the number of choices that you made in the first game are sufficiently numerous that you’re just going to have to go through the whole thing here at Dragon Age Keep and customize your game pre-experience. There’s stuff in here that I don’t remember, although I’m morbidly certain that in more than a few cases it’ll end up biting me on the rear…
Why I am now more relaxed about Dragon Age: Inquisition.
Three words: Jar. Of. Bees.
It’s a jar. Full of bees. You can craft it. You then throw it at your foes. Who then scream “BEES! BEES!” and freak out. Like you do.
This is marvelous. Continue reading Why I am now more relaxed about Dragon Age: Inquisition.
‘Dragon Age: Inquisition’ Gameplay Trailer.
Here we go.
Out in October. And, of course, they know that I’ll buy it. I want it to be the next Mass Effect, but I’ll buy it.

…Ayup, it’s going to suck me in.
I’d rather have another Mass Effect DLC, though. Or a Skyrim one. Or, hell, Bioshock Infinite can get off of its tuchis and produce. And then I want a pony!
Let me solve Bioware’s two problems for it.
OK, so Bioware has two ‘problems.’
- There will be no more Dragon Age 2 DLC. This is a problem.
- Many people don’t like the Mass Effect 3 ending. I do not consider this a problem, but never mind that right now.
So… the answer is simple, is it not? Continue reading Let me solve Bioware’s two problems for it.
Ah, First World Problems.
I’m at a bit of an impasse, here. I have sucked out all the juices possible for Knights of the Old Republic and Knights of the Old Republic 2. I’ve long since gotten everything that I was going to get out of Dragon Age 2; I’m now just waiting for the next DLC. Mass Effect 3 Collector’s Edition is months away. Right now, I have two choices: try to get back into Assassin’s Creed 2, or else fire up Deus Ex: Human Revolution. The problem with the former is that I probably really do need to pick up something like Xbox 360 Controller if I want to play the game; the problem with the latter is that I had it reserved for January or February, when the ME3 shakes would start really getting bad.
Anybody got an opinion? – You don’t have to have one, by the way. As I said, this is a First World problem. I should just be grateful that I have access to clean water, food, and clothing.
Finished DA: Mark of the Assassin this morning.
Pretty good, at least on the first run-through: if you missed the ability to sneak around and ambush people like you could in Dragon Age Origins then this will please you. There’s combat, traps, a good primary NPC to interact with, and a critical moment where Bioware apparently does not choose to railroad you into going along with a predetermined, particular moral/ethical decision. I think that it still takes you to the boss fight – but, hell, it’s a video game. I want to be taken to the boss fight.
Also, the party’s running commentary was pretty good. Again, at least the running commentary among the NPCs that I normally bring along to these things.
OK, this is driving me nuts.
OK, I’m fiddling through yet another casual run-through of Dragon Age Origins (mostly because I was hearing about how great it is to double-dagger rogue it). So, every time I load up the game I get a brief flash of an artist-inspired intro screen; which means that I get a quick look at this guy:
Who the hell is this guy supposed to be? He shows up nowhere in the game.
This is a minor enough mystery, but I’m getting bored with wondering.
