i don't care that dragon age ii was 'unfinished' (it was) or that you 'visit the same 3 places over and over' (you do) or that it was 'more action and less tactics' because dragon age ii gave us fenris and that's the highest honor

the thing i love about the hawke family is that it's entirely a reflection of hawke. hawke is shaped by the family, in the sense that all people are shaped by where and how they grow up, and the family is shaped by hawke in turn, because you create the family by your choices.
carver is your surviving sibling because you chose to be a mage, but carver is also carver because his siblings were both mages. i'm not here to tell anyone what to think, if you think carver would have been the same person regardless, that's totally fine, but i think the carver who grew up with an "ally", a non-mage sibling who was like him is a fundamentally different person than the carver who grew up having to protect two mages.
similarly, the bethany who grew up with self-loathing isolation... i think that's a different person than a bethany who grew up with a mage sibling, particularly if that sibling felt differently about their magic. that's a bethany who couldn't blame only herself for the family's situation, who wasn't always the odd one out, the one with the biggest and worst secret.
i love that the narrative bends around hawke, creates an arc where the defining feature of the surviving sibling is isolation. loneliness.
malcolm is the ghost in the machine the haunting at the center of the narrative, yes, but he is also shaped in your image. hawke is canonically like malcolm, which means that malcolm is canonically like hawke. leandra, who loved him, who gave up everything for him, then changes too, maybe more subtly. but who hawke is has to reflect on who leandra is, because leandra becomes the type of person who would anchor her life around a person like hawke.
playing dragon age for the first time so quick doodle
i didn't say it was good, i said it has bewitched me body and soul
One of the main reasons I'm so in love with default Garrett's design is that it looks so different from Leandra's, Carver's, Bethany's, Gamlen's, and even Marian's.
Their faces are elongated, their features more delicate, they look softer. Meanwhile, Garrett is all sharp angles, unruly hair, and untrimmed beard. The black sheep of the family. A real dog lord.
And you know what's the best part of it? It's the fact that since he doesn't look like his mother and the siblings who took after her (they have Leandra's blue eyes and her features), it means he takes after Malcolm.
Not only does he have his father's temper and coping mechanisms, but he also has his looks.
Imagine being Leandra in this situation. Every day your dead husband, the man you loved the most in your life (enough to say goodbye to your family and your cushy life in the mansion and go on the run with him), looks at you from your son's face, constantly reminding you of what you lost.
Imagine being Garrett in that situation. Because no matter what you do, no matter how hard you try, you will never be your father, the man who protected his wife and children from harm, the man who created a safe life for them, the man who died and simply because of that can do no wrong.
Carver can never be Garrett, but Garrett can never be Malcolm, and that's the problem, right? Right??
I love you, Garrett Hawke.
there's a third option apart from either engaging with fandom or only discussing it with a small circle of friends and it's talking to yourself alone in a dark closet for 2 years with the door ajar 1 inch so random passerby of all sorts of different backgrounds and familiarities with what you are talking about can sometimes hear you
You all hate me and my longsword and full plate armor

big fan of urban fantasy and similar genres because theres nothing funnier to me than a setting where youve got people fighting with enchanted blades and bows and hopping around doing magic tricks but you can also just hit a demon with your car if you feel like it
There's this very specific urban fantasy trope which is "processing the newfound horrors and wonders of the universe in a 24/7 diner" that gets me every time
im afraid im cooked fellas
GUARDS!! console me
