Okay, I got curious about hours spent in DA games.
^^^This is my rough estimate of lifetime hours in a Dragon Age Game. This counts all DLCs, completed and incomplete runs, etc.,
What it does not count is hours spent reading and watching DA tie-in media. I could make a guess, but I'd have to dig through some planners and old Goodreads progress, so, maybe another time.
This also doesn't count hours spent writing DA fanfic, or hours spent reading other people's DA fanfic, or hours spent looking at and sharing DA Art or watching YouTube videos, lol.
It doesn't count the hours shared with my spouse working on the Official Map of Thedas Puzzle.
It doesn't count the hours of preparation and design that went into my Dragon Age 101 presentation, nor the time spent giving said presentation, nor the time spent practicing drawing Dirthamen's vallaslin so I could pencil it onto my own face.
I am not normal about Dragon Age 😂.
This game has stolen a chunk of my brain and I have no regrets.
