    About foreshadowing, in one of his dialogues Varric says: "I like the stories where the villain was the man beside you the whole time. The best villains don’t see themselves as evil. They’re fighting for a good cause, willing to get their hands dirty."

    I don't know if anyone's said this yet, but Cole's cryptic descriptions of various people are sometimes references to things outside of the game. Sometimes he references characters in other Bioware games, sometimes other games altogether, sometimes movies, etc.
    "He teaches them to fight with a secret flaw. Part of a glorious strategy." This is a reference to one of Bioware's much older games, called Jade Empire.
    "He was dead the whole time. He didn't know." This is... The Sixth Sense, I believe.
    "There is no other man. He becomes the other man to do the things he can't." I think this is a reference to Fight Club, though there are probably loads of characters it *could* be referencing!

    Fun fact: the thing about Leliana being divine is depend on whatever or not she's hardened. If she isn't hardened, she will be a peaceful divine but if she's hardened then she will be a ruthless divine still carrying out her ideals and if anyone speaks out against her or make a move against her would mysterious disappear.

  • @battlefries
    @battlefries 18 днів тому +8

    Yeah, a second playthrough can show you all the signs. Early on in Haven, for example, Solas remarks something to the effect that "any artifact capable of creating the Breach" and just subtly reveals that he knows that it was an artifact of some kind that caused the Breach. And while Cassandra held you up as the Herald of Andraste saying that you were "exactly what we needed, when we needed it," isn't it strange that there was an elven apostate mage who was not only brave enough to approach assembled Chantry forces, but also had the exact skills needed to diagnose this heretofore unknown magical mark and had just the right knowledge to heal it and put it to use?
    And back in the Arbor Wilds, when he's arguing with Morrigan... How does it feel for him, I wonder, to have this small human child elfsplain to him about the myths of the elven gods TO an elven god? Loved your reactions! Thank you for sharing! ^_^

    The reason you managed to beat both Corypheus and his dragon so easily is because their levels were 23 while you're is 25 which is the maximum level in the game. Mean that you're more powerful than him. By playing the dlcs jaws of hakkon and the descent before the final mission, you made your character stronger.

      I guess...? That regret is contradictory to what we actually saw and heard in the post credit scene (and everything we'd been told of Flemythal's plans previously) so I'm very willing to accept what was in DAI. This is one of the moments that was an actual retcon of the narrative we were shown so I'm inclined to take the dev note. There were significant changes behind the scenes and a flattening of both characters and motivations soooo *shrug*

    Looking forward to Trespasser through your eyes, @Kiki .
    Congratulations on finishing this part! Good on you for keeping Solas with you until the DLCs were accomplished. It was annoying when I played the end fight with Corypheus and then Solas was gone. I kept wondering what Solas would say in Descent and Hakkon, but had to wait until I replayed.
    Also I originally thought alot about what Flemeth was doing, putting something away in her eluvian. We have to remember not everyone did the ritual with Morrigan, and the final cutcene happens the same anyway. So she's not hiding the Old God soul away.
    Also had to think about Flemeth being a human body but Mythal was an ancient Elvhen 'god' spirit. Flemeth far outlived her lifespan only because of Mythal and her ritual/magic knowledge Flemeth had access to for getting new bodies.
    Just things to ponder. 😊

  • @gregs3845
    @gregs3845 10 днів тому +1

    And who drank from the well of sorrows to be bound as a servant of Mythal?
    If you do Jaws of Hakkon before the end game you basically over-level and make the Corypheus battle very easy on normal difficulty. Those memories of Ameridan give you +5 in several abilities, and that's a big power boost, as well as the level ups you get playing that DLC.
    You'll have to play as a male inquisitor so you can have a truly beautiful love story with Dorian.

    the fight went so quickly because you were so op after playing the other dlcs 😂 i remember doing this fight on normal the first time before the dlcs and it was a lot harder. they recommend level 16-19 for this mission but after the dlcs came out most people play them first like you did and end up being lvl 25. I just wonder why they didn't bother scaling the final battle after the dlcs came out would have maybe made more sense lol.
    i think solas' writing is pretty good even though he's textually an antagonist in the game, he can be seen as many things including antihero and antivillain imo. there are just so many questions after inquisition lol. anyways I love a multifaceted tragic character 😌i also loved going back and doing a second playthrough and seeing all the signs after that last scene lol like from the beginning i thought he knew too much but was not prepared for the fen'harel reveal lol there's a lot to recontextualize after this revelation.

    26:00 I understand why Sera's attitude is rude and all, but there's more to it than just being childish (although, yes, she IS childish and edgy, comes with the territory).
    Many Dalish clans don't see the city elves as "real" elves and have this sense of superiority towards city elves who themselves don't have it that great in human cities. We see this in both DAO and DA2. Even in DAO, some city elves don't believe the Dalish even exist because they rarely communicate or show themselves, and each Dalish clan is different (in Dalish origin in DAO you can straight up kill the "shems" just because they are humans, and you don't trust them).
    Meanwhile, the city elves try to preserve the little knowledge they have. And Sera grew up in a city, and she says on different occasions how the elves "made her feel less" because she didn't know or care about the past, because she was not "elfy" enough. Imo, her resentment is understandable, especially knowing her background and personal quest about the cookies. She respects the person for their deeds, and not a race or background.
    Saying all that, I don't defend her attitude in this particular moment, just saying I understand why she's like that. And Sera grows with time (you can see it in Tresspasser).
