(no subject)

So while everyone else is playing Dragon Age: Inquisition, I am sitting here playing Awakening because a) I don't have a copy of DA:I, and b) FERELDEN BOYFRIEND.

Well. And. I now have a PC capable of playing DAO and DAII, which is good, since I own the PC version of Origins (I bought it years back; I have the Ultimate edition). And I want to mod the crap out of both games. I suspect I'll have to use Windows to play both games, but I suppose that's no hardship? (I'd rather use Linux, but that means installing WINE but I suppose I have no problem with that either? OH GOD I DON'T KNOW ANY MORE).

Also I've been storing (or whatever it is) my choices on Dragon Age Keep, and I didn't know till then you could avoid recruiting Oghren in Awakening, and I nearly avoided him completely (I really don't like him, because I have no truck with alcoholics, and I know he's like comedy relief or whatever, but I really don't find him funny) except hey guess what. OH WELL. At least I have Nathaniel *happy sighs*

Oh and, I imported Circe into Awakening (who's my Cousland, whose playthrough I haven't finished yet, but who romanced the crap out of Alistair) to play instead of making someone new or using Julius (my Mahariel). When Alistair came to visit, I must admit that that scene was super cute because of his having been romanced. Awkward kissing at the end notwithstanding.

(I don't hate Alistair, I actually think he's a huge dork, but he doesn't really do much for me).

I am going to attempt to save both the Keep and Amaranthine, as well as leave the Architect alive (I honestly don't know what Circe would do, because I can't remember if what her personality is because I don't play her much. The entire point of her existence was to romance Alistair and become Queen).

So. Um. Yes. So much for my plans to spend this weekend writing!
