"I always cry at endings."

[o_deanna]

Well I finished Dragon Age: Origins last night. It wasn't quite the chocolate boxes and roses ending I'd hoped for (there are twelve different endings) and some decisions I had to make near the end actually made me feel sick. There were sleepless nights, people, and EMOTIONS!

Anyway, for the four people on my flist playing DA:O, here is my ending

I loved this game, I seriously loved it. It's the feeling that Bioware really cared about their female audience and actually wrote characters for them.You can say that again. Or I can just hit ctrl+v. ;) But YES YES YES. THIS. You nailed it on the head. I liked KOTOR, but there were still some glitchy parts where they'd say "he" instead of "she". Funny how those three letter pronouns make a huge difference with the way one feels. Also, I didn't get into it too much, because I wasn't interested in the characters that you could romance. But yeah! I already went on how happy I was with how Bioware made me feel like they care about the girls, who like girls demographic

I did have some glitches in the Alienage towards the end, I kept on being called 'sir,' but it didn't bother me too much on the whole. I only felt a little bit put out...seeing as the rest of the game was so well done for the ladies!

I had that problem with Mass Effect, I just wasn't into Kaiden really...he was a bit blank. But Alistair was clearly written with girls in mind. I'm so incredibly pleased that you felt this game catered for you too and that Leliana was what you wanted in a character. Speaking as a girl who likes boys and, to a lesser extent, girls, I would've gone for Morrigan out of the two (if she was a romance option!) I guess I just like the snark! I would've still ended up with a broken heart during the ritual. I'm cursed! Come on Zev, run away with me to Antiva and take me away from all this misery! XD

I'm playing through Mass Effect now, and Kaiden reminds me way too much of Carth. They both really were blank. I romanced Carth, then went evil at the very end and make him run off swearing that he'd be back try to bring me back to the light side because I hated him so much. I would have rather have been able to romance Bastila, not only was she the most developed character (and has a sexy British accent) but you know the drama that happens with her later on in the game when she gets kidnapped would have made the game a lot more enjoyable to me if I was emotionally invested in her

Yes, my friend MarcusJordan said exactly the same thing about Carth and Kaiden. I never played KotOR...but Christ, Kaiden is dull, so if he's anything as bad as him...:/. Fandom still seems to love Carth though, as I've been delving through Bioware fanart and stuff. Whyyyy? Hooray for sexy British accents though. I must do a voice post! :D

I really need to play through Mass Effect again before the sequel appears. I only got about halfway through it first time. I accidentally had sex with the blue chick, I didn't even know what was happening. I don't know what I did!

Yeah, I usually play a good character, I help everyone and do every menial task I can find. Morrigan disapproved of everything I did XD, but winning her over in the end was amazing...even if she did screw me over :(. Hahaha, this Morrigan art made me laugh. It's appropriate I promise

Oh god that comic strip pretty much sums it up. XD And poor Alistair. XD

[o_deanna]

Yeah, it was the fact that she kept on questioning me that was the killer. Plus she seemed kinda racist. I dunno. I need a replay! As soon as I finish this round of DA:O I'll start on Mass Effect and hopefully be finished in time for ME2.

Yeah, I think I was more rebellious too. My tragic past had given me a chip on my shoulder XD. I don't think I was playing as me, so maybe that's why I gave up halfway through...although in reality I think I bought Oblivion and that was the end of all other games.

Oh man, I can still fangirl Oblivion...I still haven't finished it completely, I can't bare to! I still have lots of the Dark Brotherhood missions to do, because I was waiting to get the Grey Cowl of Nocturne before I did bad stuff XD. I have the hugest crush on one of the Blackhorse Courier guys. He's a Khajiit. YOU CAN'T EVEN SPEAK TO HIM! Mind you, I'm exactly the same with a Mercenary NPC from Fallout 3. *sigh*

What background did you play in Mass Effect? Mine actually is easy to play - the survivor - because I've been through shit that has been pretty rough. I'm having a lot of fun but I get the feeling I am close to the game's climax

[o_deanna]

I can't remember...! I really must restart, I might leave DA:O for a while, I'm playing exactly the same game over again, but as an elf - all the same decisions. I just can't NOT romance Alistair, he's already asking Leliana for advice about telling me how much he likes me XD. ARGH! I'M MEANT TO BE SAVING MYSELF FOR ZEV, ALISTAIR, STOP BEING ALL BLUSHING AND CUTE!

OMG, no way?! Hahahaha, I'm so glad you do the same thing in Oblivion. Seriously, that Black Horse Courier guy is just....guh! Hahahaha. Yeah, if there was a romance option I would die.

Oooh! You liked Amata? :D Yes, she was just crying out for a romance option really. I kinda romanced Mr. Burke, I was so gutted when he dumped me. I hate that bitch at the Craterside Supply, she's totally banging my mercenary :(

Hahah! Oh, I love that you had a DA:O dream. You're the best. I'm glad that you worked out your differences in the end!

PS. OMG, I was just looking for a picture of Amata and ended up seeing some really hardcore Amata/Butch porn. Too many (actual) Tunnel Snakes were contained in that picture. Holy shit, that really burned my eyes.
