Stories Can’t Hurt Us @clairedelune-13 - Tumblr Blog

OK, I have to give Veilguard some credit in this aspect.

Just saw an NPC doing cartwheels in the market in Treviso, and here I 100% thought that every NPC was just a useless bot that stood around doing nothing.

Shoutout to whatever game developer decided to have some fun and make an NPC do something for once.

Can I take them back to the lighthouse so I can have some entertainment? Because my companions don’t do shit.

I just can’t stand the way Rook can’t enter a room without some sort of snarky comment.

Like, just shut your fucking mouth and enter in silence, idiot

For example, when you start Lucanis’ bloodbath quest, the first words out of their damn mouth is

Well, this is ominous.

Like shut the fuck up, you worthless sack of shit. Nobody gave you permission to talk.

Every time an ad interrupts whatever I’m watching, I silently pray that they go bankrupt.

I have a confession to make.

I really do not like the Disney Tardis.

It reminds me of an Apple Store.

Twelve’s will always be peak.

Can we talk about how weirdly optimistic and happy go lucky the end slides are despite the fact that the world is in a much worse state than it was before?

And its all Rook’s fault.

Think about that.

I just now realized that there is a certain coziness to inquisition that Veilguard just doesn’t have.

I have a very sentimental attachment to Skyhold that I don’t have for the Lighthouse.

I even liked the Tempest in MEA.

The Lighthouse is so soulless. Despite its previous owner… 🤣

No, but seriously, the Lighthouse is the most lifeless homebase ever.

Can’t help thinking of the fact that Illario and Lucanis are clear victims of pretty extensive child abuse, so bad to the point that one of them developed an inferiority complex, and the other one is so terrified of his guardian that he is afraid to stand up to her.

And the game doesn’t even bother to delve into this complicated topic.

The mishandling of Lucanis in VG feels like a personal blow.

I liked his character so much in TN, I fitted him into one of my inquisitor’s backstories.

Like, they met in passing because they were literally from the same country (Antiva) but ever since the game came out, it doesn’t make sense anymore, and I had to change my fucking hc.

So yeah, what they did to Lucanis feels like a personal affront to me and the headcanon I worked quite hard on and grew proud of.

If you were upset with GO3, just rewatch Staged 3.

Many DW Fans: Rose is the best companion intro!

Me: Excuse you, The Pilot is right there!

I’ve only ever cried during two regenerations.

Ten’s:

And then 12’s:

I was actually sadder with 12. Despite the fact that he had a really fitting ending.

I fucking didn’t want this mad scientist sunglass-wearing college professor to go yet :(

I think I may have figured out why I’m not upset nor overjoyed at the finale.

I just don’t care?

No, literally, I just lost interest.

I’m not crushed.

I’m not satisfied.

I’ve just moved on.

That’s pretty much it.

I just feel indifferent.

It didn’t disappoint me.

I literally just stopped caring, it’s just hit me that that’s why I don’t feel the same level of rage others seem to feel.

I don’t care.

Honestly, in a perfect world, I feel like RTD and Moffat would run the show together, because one their strengths is the other’s weakness, and as a cohesive unit, they would balance each other out. Not sure if that would work or their egos would just cause them to step on each other‘s toes, honestly. But this is me being hypothetical.

A show like Doctor Who needs two showrunners, in my opinion.

Some of the best episodes have been those written by Moffat while under the guidance of RTD as showrunner. (The Empty Child, TGITF, Blink, Silence in the Library, Boom, etc.)

It’s a shame nobody over at the BBC figured this out, because then a lot of the problems could be fixed.

Not the only ones, but it would help.

One thing that actually really turned me off, was a comment that Rook makes during the MoC quest about the size of the villa and whether it was necessary to have a house that big.

Lucanis has some sort of response along the lines of, “Oh, we need extra rooms for guests!”

All I could think of was how much he came across as just one of your typical average privileged billionaires, and it made me wanna throw up.

Bellara’s “lighthouse book club” sounds like one of those events that if you attended, you’d just end up leaving mad because everyone there is fucking wrong.

Just looking at all of your companions in this game, you know their opinions on any sort of literature is going to be dead wrong.

Not a single person in this group clocks me as a genuine intellectual.

At the very least, they’re pseudo-intellectuals.

Don’t ask any of these goddamn people for advice.

They all just looked it up on Reddit, anyway.

And it’s too hard to describe this in a way that feels honest
