Okay, let's make a thread, so I don't spam too much. 🙈

Btw, I do not like the starting outfit. I know modding will take a while, but I cannot wait for someone to figure out how to swap them out.

New hashtag #DreadfulPlays if you don't want to see my game spam. Will put everything below this one under a CW and tag it with my #DATVSpoilers .

Let's do it again! 🥳

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard

Why do I have to carry a bow as a rogue? Can I get rid of that?

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DreadfulPlays

"How did a demon this large get through the Veil?"
"It's a pride demon. Damn thing probably sensed Solas' ego."

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

The sign that should have told me the truth about Varric, but that I just did not want to see:

Solas destroys Bianca and in all his time at the Lighthouse, Varric doesn't mention it ONCE.

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Signs that I am a Solas Simp through and through:

I'm sitting here, knowing what's going to happen, and cursing Mythal all the way. Everything is her fucking fault. 🙈

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

I want the armor he's wearing btw.

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

"You have exchanged verbal jabs with Solas."

😂

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Tried multiple hair styles again, but I think she's just looking absolutely gorgeous with the short one.

Analysing Solas' music room. I mean, he has a music room. With the chant of light lying on the piano bench, an inquisition chair and lots of cheese wheels.

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Why? Why did they have to have him kill Varric? WHHHHYYYYYY? 😭

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Remember when Solas explained to us in Inquisition (I think it was during his personal quest) that a spirit can be twisted into a demon by forcing it to do something that's against its nature? The friend we were saving was a spirit of wisdom who had turned into a pride demon. It was a mirror of himself. A spirit of wisdom, forced into a body and into war by Mythal, turning into a pride demon.

You know what would have made the Darkspawn thingy less awkward? Instead of "Mythal'enaste. Darkspawn." from Bellaria, it would have made more sense if it was more like:
B: "Are those... Darkspawn?"
H: "They don't look like the Darkspawn I've seen."
R: "Whatever it is, I'm not about to let it eat my face. Let's go."

You know, just acknowledging that they look vastly different... 🤷‍♀️

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Yeah, I know they do mention that they're looking different, but somehow it feels weird.

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Here comes the Blight (Doo-d-doo-doo)
Here comes the Blight
And I say...
Well, shit

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

I can't figure out that dodge shit. I'm to slow for that stuff. Then the delay when you're just hacking and slicing stuff. It's not my cup of tea tbh.

#DragonAge #TheVeilguard #DATVSpoilers #DreadfulPlays

Anyone who's saying that DA:TV isn't dark enough hasn't visited D'Meta's Crossing. And that's pretty much at the beginning of the game.

@dreadfulsanity I got obliterated on the first dragon fight, which made me realize that the whole fighting thing was waaay too hard for some reason, while I was on default setting.

...and apparently the reason was that I was trying to do it on console. Idk what you are using, but with console (on pc at least) you are about 3x slower than with a mouse/keyboard (or in my case, xpaddered console) pairing. It did the animation in almost slow motion for me so in a boss fight I simply didn't have the time to fire off any spells whatsoever, OR a staff attack either, because even immediately hitting it after a dodge I'd get hit again before it finished.

I put the dodge on scroll down and now I keep forgetting I have a shield too lol! Can still die but it's user error now...

I didn't see anything about this bug anywhere tho and it's not in the bug fix they rolled out either unless in the general balancing fixes section.

@sahqon Mkb, though in most cases I'm still doing attack when I'm trying to dodge or defend, so it goes off late and I get hit. Putting dodge on the mousewheel sounds genius though. Let's see if I can work with that.
@dreadfulsanity it's blocking that's hard for me. I was stuck on the Shadow Dragons quest bad guy forever until I finally tried REALLY hard to block, which actually made the fight almost easy. I'm still no good at it in fights with multiple opponents though.
@anakin78z Blocking as mage was better with the bubble. I'm really trying to get into that whole Rogue thingy.
@dreadfulsanity I'm curious, does a Grey Warden Rook say anything about sensing them?

@jlsigman That is a very good question. Remind me when I play a Warden. 🙈 I mean, Davrin can sense them, meaning even though the Blight and the Darkspawn are different, it's still the Blight at its core. Though it is weird and sings weird. Weirder as normal.

While I do prefer the grittier ones in DA:O, I can work with the explanation on why it's different this time. And those blighted areas are... yuck.

@dreadfulsanity My Levellan is like, "See? Now do you get it?" and I'm just sighing. Yeah, I know.
@jlsigman 😂 I mean, I kinda fell for him at his introduction. But damn, he's fine in The Veilguard, even when he's "evil".
