Well, Skyrim was the game where you DO defeat a physical god.

And I'm going to go against your wishes here and hope that DA4 makes us more of a nobody. Like Hawke. Chumps are cool.
same

Also thanks for the tip, I'll try it out!

Just in case nobody has beaten Morrowind!


No problem, Arty! I found a Reddit post containing a few tweaks a while back. I'll see if it has any more useful things to try. If I can find it, that is. =P

EDIT: Ah, here it is. This is for maxed-out computers looking to increase performance, but you could "translate" some of these parameters to your own computer's specs.

Court approval -10 for nutcracker fashion sense

It is super-snazzy, though. There's a cool mod out there that paints the whole thing white and gold and keeps the sash blue. But it apparently makes it impossible to craft it with different colors later on. =\

WE,WH is the best quest ever. Probably my favorite so far. There's a big decision coming up and I have no idea what I want to happen, and it's awesome.

In Shivering Isles you kill a god, then become one.

Luckily Elder Scrolls has shit plot or I'd be made about all this spoilering outside of spoiler tags. >_>

Posting from safe mode because commenting about Inquisition is worth risking the computer boom hard drive.

Wicked Eyes, Wicked Hearts; Blackwall's Personal Quest


Killed my first two dragons, the one in the Emerald Graves and then Stormrider in the Exalted Plains. Both fights were super ez because of Spectral Blade hax (multiple targets getting hit at once means my barrier is unbreakable, so I'm immortal), but Stormrider was just absolutely gorgeous visually. Like, what a beautiful creature. This game really does the dragon fights well.

I might amp it up to hardmode though, since I think I'm overlevelled. >_>

Bull after dragonslaying; pranking with Sera (after romancing Cullen)


Currently going through Cullen's personal questline. Or at least, waiting for the missions to complete.

And Asphodel, I definitely agree with you in your characterizing of Inquisition's plot, and that Origin's and Hawke's structures were much better handled. As much as I would love the system you proposed for making decisions, and I think that'd be perfect, I think Bioware was too focused on taking influence from Skyrim (they said this explicitly) and focusing on exploration. As is, that one reviewer accurately described Inquisition as a bit of an escapist power trip, and I think to some extent that's true.
It doesn't have the focus or moral quandaries of Origins or DA2, and while it has the archetypal flavour of Origins, so far I don't think it's handled as well -- maybe, just too much sidequesting dilutes resources that could've been spent delving into the main plot. And it's missing that humility and personability/small scale of DA2.
Still very good and amazing, and oh man the cast is fantastic (better than DA: O for sure, possibly even better than DA: 2), but it definitely has some flaws plotwise.

I feel like there's some excellent plot material that could've been playable that was relegated to war table stuff (like the Clan Lavellan arc), and some stupid fetchquest bullshit that could've been relegated to the war table. Basically, everything cool should've been playable, everything tedious should've been war table. <_< >_>

Spoilers for the end of DA:2, as per your vision of what Inquisition should've been, Asph

So. After 76 hours, I beat the game. Pretty damn pleased with the direction they took it. I shat so many bricks. SO MANY BRICKS.

For the end of Inquisition
