Canadian. Canadian never changes.

The best way to do sex in video games is to not fucking have it in video games. Fade to black, every time. It will always work, and you will never have to render a video with a dwarf in his underpants.

I would go a step further and take the same approach to movies and to a lesser extent books. Stories be stories and porn be porn.

That's definitely true if you're playing a Tech focused character, and a huge pain in the ass. Playing a mage though is a wholly different experience.. where combat might as well not exist since everything dies in a few seconds of Harm spam. Arcanum has a lot of mediocre combat but you can certainly feel like it's almost non existent when you're going on a mage playthrough.

That's the Deep Roads experience. Everything, from the way BioWare gated its content to their insistence in spamming more encounters than necessary caused the Deep Roads to be the game's worst example of pacing. In a way, the difference between the whole of Arcanum and the Deep Roads is that the first has much more interesting content in between the boring encounters, whereas the latter has a functional beastiary. Yeah, piles upon piles of orcs darkspawn, but those at least come with active abilities.

That said, if I was to rip on any part of DA:O it would be the ending's one shottable mooks.

In all my years of JRPG consolefaggotry, I haven't seen any one character that was more emo than this. Much less one that wore a shit coloured blanket on his head.

Quite possibly one of the worst Dragon Age characters to date. Nothing so far has ever gotten this bad. I could find more creative male character concepts on Deviant Art, even if I restricted myself to artists <16 and female.

This is not how the in-your-face entertainment complex works.

All Cole knows for certain is that the world is full of pain and he must find his place within it.

Jesus, I almost choked.

Corpse-guys are cool.

Yo Roguey I thought you said he was blacklisted: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014/06/23/dragon-age-inquisition-romance/

That interview is from E3. Any blacklisting would happen post-E3.

Wait, this was a recent thing?? How do you know? Links, etc.

 

[Roguey]

He mentions E3 multiple times in that article you pasted. He just didn't get around to finishing it until now.

No, I mean the blacklisting. E3 was just now. When did he manage to get himself blacklisted?

I have no idea if he's been blacklisted or not, I speculated that he might have been after making a negative comment regarding DAI vs Witcher 3 after seeing them both at E3, and then there's this tepid piece.

 

[Infinitron]

Damn it, Roguey.

...An emo ghost assassin trapped between life and death. Sporting the world's worst hair and most ridiculous hat. Standing awkwardly in the desert for some photoshoot.

For every new character revealed, the visual and character design get more retarded. :D

 

[Zeriel]

Damn it, Roguey.

Do not blame the Roguey for its nature, but blame yourself for trusting it.

Shalom.

 

[Roguey]

I never said anything close to "Grayson's been blacklisted."

CRAAAAAWLIIIING IN MY SKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN
You motherfuckers thought Fenris was as emo as Gaider could go? Well think again.

 

[Malpercio]

Chosen Undead, is that you?

Saddest part is somewhere out there are fags who shop at Hot Topic who think that character design is badass.

 

[Alonebadman]

Honestly I thought he was wearing a cloth tire cone on his head or a dunce cap because talk about WIDEBRIM. Better yet, it's an anachronistic fedora and he says in a wispy voice "M'lady."

I'm pretty sure even they think it sucks too.

Chicks dig emo zombie boyfriends.

So many belts.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

He is a ghost in the shadows, walking unnoticed through crowds. He can slit an enemy's throat before they even realize he's there, and slip away, never to be seen again.

Wow. Their writer should be careful with that edge lest he cuts himself.

Well, to be fair that's what you expect an assassin to be like. But that hair and Saturday Night Fever clothes make him easier to pick out in a crowd than the white robes from Assassin's Creed.

Hey Chief, did you hear that? See, it's just like I told you, charm doesn't go away just because you've kicked the bucket. Ain't no jinkskirt saying that either, how about you put that in your leafer.
