Hello, my good people. I'm about to start my second playthrough of Veilguard - this time having played the rest of the games, lol - and I can't for the life of me recreate my Inquisitor. If I could just get the red eyes and the hair right, that'd already be a great start, but nooooo.
Any help would be appreciated.
So, uh, funny story, actually - my first DA was Veilguard. You can imagine how confused I was throughout the whole thing. Despite the less than stellar writing and the references to games I hadn't played, I still enjoyed the game to some extent, and decided to check out the rest of the series, seeing as fans were clearly disappointed with Veilguard.
A sensible person would've then started with Origins. Me? I'm not a sensible person, so I went with Inquisition. After that, I decided I should play through these games in the proper order.
Thus, here I am. Bear in mind I haven't played Awakening yet, so I'm only providing a summary of my decisions in Origins.
I played as a human mage (arcane warrior/blood mage), and romanced Morrigan.
As for the big decisions:
- Killed Zevran. Yes, I knew he was a companion, but my roleplaying didn't allow me to take *that* risk, even if I, the player, know he wouldn't have betrayed me (or would he?).
- Saved the mages.
- Broke the werevolves' curse.
- Saved Connor with the Circle's help.
- Let the Circle decide Jowan's fate.
- Helped Bhelen become Orzammar's king.
- Destroyed the Anvil Of The Void.
- Won the Landsmeet and dueled Loghain myself, but let Alistair execute him.
- Made Alistair king by himself.
- Did the Dark Ritual with Morrigan. I get the impression this was supposed to be a "betrayal moment," but it just seemed like a reasonable solution. My Warden and Morrigan are in love (seeing her calling him "my love" was immensely satisfying, considering how far she's come), and he sees blood magic and the like as tools to be used if necessary. He also most definitely didn't want to die just yet.
- Asked Alistair to have the Wardens lost to the Blight be remembered. Also told him I'd look for Morrigan.
I'm pretty damn happy with how everything turned out, and am looking forward to seeing how things develop in Awakening and, later, what becomes of Morrigan in Witch Hunt.
At the same time, it's incredibly sad to see how far these games have fallen, and to know that we'll likely never get another DA of this quality, if we get one at all.
