think about the damage this would do

[lazyveran]

i realise ive never actually posted my qunari redesigns sketches but i imagine them to be far more inhuman looking than just tall, grey and horns. making the qunari truly stand out as different from any other race in thedas lends to the idea there's barely 300 years of co-existence with these guys and theyre so unknown and strange to thedas theyre actively shunned regardless if vashoth or qun

[lazyveran]

playing qunari in this game is not for the weak they get NOTHING

"I wish cyberpunk had done, etc. I wish there was X ending, I don't feel like they explored XYZ enough"

BABE THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. Cyberpunk, even as a tabletop game, revolved around the fact that there is ALWAYS something going on that you don't know about. The whole point of the series is that YOU CAN'T WIN. You, no matter how reknown you become, will be an insignificant cog in the big machinery that is night city, and you will die that way. The entire point is that there's no satisfying way to end it. There is no "good" or "happy" ending because THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SERIES IS HOW FUTILE TRYING TO BEAT THE SYSTEM IS. The most compelling thing about the series is that no matter what choices you make, you lose, and you've got to grapple with that to get to the ending that you consider the best possible outcome, and even then, you won't be happy.

There are no happy endings in Night City.

also have to say i appreciate the dialogue in da:i it's very well done and i love engaging with it

[lazyveran]

as much as i genuinely despise the endless bloated purgatory that is the hinterlands, narratively i appreciate it. i think in the later areas there's less emphasis on the busy-work of an organisation like the inquisition, but when youre thrown into the hinterlands the inquisition is bare-bones and essentially squatting unlawfully in a pilgrim town. probably a couple hundred soldiers to it's name, barely any funding, no legitimacy or sway save for a few impressively titled individuals - it's essentially just a fancy, large mercenary band of religious folks. so, like yeah, the endless fetch quests of hunting, finding refugees and resources, slowly staking claim in the area while fighting thru bandit clans, templars, mages, ect would be the dull, boring work that an organisation without much pull would set it's best to. at that point in the story you are a soldier and mercenary with a reputation more than anything else.

set in contrast to like the emerald graves later on, where the inquisition is large, established, well-funded; all the refugees would take their aid from it's many, many soldiers rather that the inquisitor and their personal squad of elites. so you DO less, because you now have the authority and power to afford to delegate. a quiet indication of how powerful the inquisition becomes in the end

it's still an infuriating bloody slog, though

[lazyveran]

starting a fresh da: inquisition run for easter break so prepare for endless yapping on here abt it

i am so sad. so mi from cyberpunk you make me terribly terribly sad you are the worst woman ive ever met and yet i would fall over myself saving you in every single universe

[lazyveran]

ykw ive started to like the "elves dressing sluttily" trope only if said elves all have the inclination to. regardless of gender, or class, or any of it. if nationwide they're all vain, poncy narcissists that just have to dress illogically then fuck yeah! get your midriff out on the battlefield! let those elves serve cunt!
