Yeah, there are definite similarities between Anders and Alistair. But since, as you already know, I strongly dislike Alistair, that didn't bother me as much? Anders was more palatable to me because he had the things I did like about Alistair, plus a really sexy voice, plus vanity and selfishness, plus being a mage - and minus the hypocrisy and whininess that distanced me from Alistair's character. (And with the robes, if go to - Octam's Grocer, I think it is, on the left side of the Amaranthine market, bottom left corner, you can get a really nice set of orange robes that compliment his colouring so well. ... Sob. I have an Awakening!Anders obsession, okay. I don't remember the name but the item description is something about a shy, reclusive mage.)
PLUS HE'S A MAGE. I love mages in the DA:O games. My PC is almost always a mage and they tend to be the most interesting characters to me, although there are a few exceptions. (CoughWynnecough.)
Nathaniel I enjoyed, simply because had the closest thing to a character arc that you can get in a ten hour game. And he didn't go out of his way to froth at the mouth at the player character for being a Cousland. Sigrun I also enjoyed just for the fact that she was still cheery despite being a Legionnaire, but I didn't have the same experience you did with her approval, so.
Velanna... well. She's. There. I guess.
Regarding the lag! I actually played all the DA games on my 360, so nope. But Awakening is notoriously buggy which is why I would have recommended you play it on a separate console if I had realised. /facepalm.
You're more than halfway through, I believe! After Blackmarsh there is another thing, and then another thing, both of which are about half the gameplay time of the previous main quests, and then you're done! After getting grabbed by the Architect, you're more than halfway done that particular quest as well.
LOL, I really like how we're both drawn to similar characters. I could wax lyrical on Alistair all day long, I love him so much ;~;
OKAY I WILL TRY TO FIND THESE ROBES, hahaha. I'm just very attached to how his current robes show off those nice biceps, mm yes...
Yes, I agree about mages. Ultimately (at least in DA:O and the DLC), mages tend to have the strongest DPS and use in battle too, so. I prefer to take ALL the mages with me into the field, SO IT'S ALWAYS A PLUS WHEN THE MAGE CHARACTERS ARE INTERESTING goddamn Wynne.
Before our little mishap, I thought Sigrun was cute. I think female Dwarves in general are cute though, so |D
PFFFT, FIGURES. And no, it's cool. I've actually bought the DLC with the original game: it was all one big package! I wouldn't have been able to switch to console, so no worries! <3
EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR. I'm trying to beat this while I'm still on spring break, so |D
