Well, I finally got my copy of Dragon Age Inquisition (for the Xbox 360, so no DLC for me because Bioware are lazy money grabbing sons of B---). Honestly, my first impressions of this game is that it isn't worth playing; the "tutorial" is a one hour crawl over the internet to import files from the previous 2 games, ending at a website where you have to manually imput your decisions.

Knowing my luck, said decisions probably won't import into the Xbox itself. -sigh- I just don't understand why technology has to be connected to the internet to work nowadays, even when it doesn't make sense to do so (printers, I'm looking at you).

So, if I'm slow to post, this is the reason.

I hope you have a great time in the game, West! As always, I can't add anything to Dragon Age, tho. But ya, some modern games are pretty annoying to get working.

Also, I forgot to post in George's RP. Tomorrow, I will try to post in the RPs around here, if I can. Sorry for my repeating and consistent forgetfulness and lack of activity, I just don't have as much energy and time I used to.

Although a week late, seems like lots of people are celebrating the death of this guy called TotalBiscuit. I'm a noob in social media, but still, being happy that someone died isn't a nice thing. If some people want to celebrate death, I consider them psychopaths. Despite my radical views, I even prefer terrorists, pedophiles, and rapists to suddenly (somehow) change and be good people, not be dead.

I dunno, the idea of redemption falls short in my eyes. As human beings, one of our flaws is our ability to see our flaws, yet act on them anyway. And once we open the metaphorical cookie jar, the lock is never refastened. What's the harm in grabbing another cookie, after all? The scary thing is that attitude spreads to those around them, especially those who take custody of them.

I'm not sure who totalbiscuit is, but I don't think one has to be a psychopath to celebrate death. But at the same time, I also doubt these same people could voice such opinions in conversation.



EDIT: After some google searching, what does Totalbiscuit have to do with terrorists, pedophiles and such? ._.

I'm like Sub-Zero, cold, but merciful. But interesting points. Seems like people just can't control themselves, or desire some sort of chaotic frenzy.

Maybe not, but being happy people die certainly sounds psychopathic. Actual psychopaths enjoy death. The recent school shooter, who has a Greek-sounding last name, celebrated and cheered before shooting people.

My point about mercy to terrorists, pedophiles and rapists was meant to be an optional point; I did not mean to relate him to them. He has family, a wife and kids, which is so tragic that he had to leave his family behind.

Make sure you look up the ending for the Trespasser DLC after you complete the main game. In a way, it is the "true" ending for the game, and also sets up the next installment.

He was a well-respected game critic on YouTube.

I didn't really watch him that much, and his death caught me completely off-guard, but I was so pissed off after I found out.

Inquisition is good. I would have liked it more if there wasn't so much running through areas, but that wasn't entirely a bad thing.

I've got a certain fondness for DA2 despite everyone hating on it, although Origins is my favorite of the three.

I just wish Varric and that damn elf mage guy would stop running into melee. As much as I like Varric, I had to replace him the first chance I got...

Origins would have been my favourite, if only for the fact that a duel weilding mage was BROKEN as hell (place a glyph of repulsion on a doorway, throw up a storm of the century and you've basically won nightmare difficulty solo... well, besides the bosses, but we're not counting them!).

DA2 definately had the best drama, especially in Act 2.

But DAI has horses, so...
