sure the Anders hate in dai is Annoying or whatever but I'm more so pissed off and sad that dai was like yeah everyone hates Morrigan. Like the two characters in inquisition who knew Morrigan the most were both like yeah we were never friends/we never got along, she's like evil and heartless. Even Morrigan is like yeah they never liked me. Seriously? After everything that happened in dao you want me to believe they didn't at least respect her if not care about her? You want to try to tell me the woman with a personality that isn't palatable to men is also hated by her former friends. I wonder why the writers think that of her.
Replaying dai and this fr makes me so mad. At the end of dao the characters all have an obvious respect for each other and their banter noticeably warms to the point where it's natural to interpret they'd be friends if not amicable acquaintances. But because the writers hate women they're all back to square one and acting like they barely knew or liked Morrigan. God it pisses me off so fucking much. Morrigan wore the dress Leliana recommended and told her son that Alistair was a good man. Why are they being cruel to her.
While I can understand people in the notes trying to make this make sense Narratively in their heads with various worldstate justifications (ex. 'maybe they blame her for the HoF's death' or 'maybe they're upset she didn't tell them about Kieran' etc) I need everyone to understand that there IS no Narrative justification for this. It is simply because bioware hates women, and therefore the characters must also hate women. Morrigan is not and never has been palatable to male audiences in her unapologetically bold personality (which is why they dressed her in a flimsy bikini, so males would excuse her personality because she's sexually attractive) which bioware also hates, and punishes her for. As soon as she's no longer available to male audiences as a romantic interest, she is punished by her former friends who suddenly hate her, she is punished by the companions of the Inquisitor who All have things to say about suspecting her of some secret evil, etc etc. Bioware could not and will not accept a female character who is as unpalatable to males as Morrigan is being respected by their narrative, so trying to justify that narratively is frankly insulting. There is no in-game explanation for why everyone in dai is so cruel to Morrigan. It is simply because of the writers' misogyny.

i thought it would be fun to design regional grey warden armors, so here's my rook modeling them... she moved around so much because she never got along with her superiors

Elderly lady mail clerk and young customer are chatting. Customer says, "oh! I'm wearing my boss's coat right now, give me something weird to put in the pocket!" Others within earshot all start looking for something because, hey, important quest. Mail clerk finally reaches under counter, pulls out a large roll of labels, and tears one off.
Encaustic is so gorgeous in person and so terribly difficult to photograph.
Encaustic collage, the outlines around the central figure are done on tracing paper, so it's translucent. The daggers are actually shiny, because I did them with metallic ink, and the wasps are shiny, as is some of Lavellan's hair. Some of the shading underneath is colored pencil on the reverse side of the tracing paper, some of it is the encaustic underneath.
@cryptid-catt, @cute-ellyna, @vhen-harel, @dirthera15, thought you all might be interested in how it's turned out.
dragon age origins fishing minigame is a cute little one-time interaction with a fisherman at lake calenhad where if you have enough cunning u can catch some kind of fucked up lake monster which comes with a little codex entry elaborating on the rumours about lake calenhad & the circle tower
dragon age 2 fishing minigame is non-existent they just make a joke about how gross kirkwall harbour fish would be to cover up that they didn’t have time to make it. in the files there’s some crazy list of creatures you would have fished out of there and some cut codex entries you would have found with super relevant gallows lore that is now just not in the game and people discourse about whether it’s canon
dragon age inquisition fishing minigame was created when the devs took people's complaints about no fishing minigame in da2 way too seriously and battled with the game engine to make an extremely awkward, unrewarding, and time-consuming system available in like almost every map. people still do it because sitting there and fishing for half an hour is one of the only reliable ways to trigger party banter. some of the mosaics can only be found by fishing
dragon age the veilguard fishing minigame also never made it into the game, despite the fact that the concept art book has like a kind of bizarre amount of work on what all the fish would look like, because the mechanics were planned for when the home base was a submarine and then became unusable. some of the concept fish became in-game models which serve exclusively to provide jokes about cooking
