The YT comments are… well… something.
Cant have vikings without nazis crawling out of their caves I guess.
I am going to mention the rogue planets, since no one else has mentioned them here yet. Those unlucky celestial bodies ejected by their home star, destined to fly through the universe alone, dark and cold, forever.
8 gets a lot of hate along with the rest of the sequels, and I remember being pissed off of its scorched earth treatment of every single plot point from 7 after watching it in the movie theatre, but looking back… at least it tried to be original. The scenes are visually memorable, and its message that even nobody can rise up to be a hero, is miles better than… whatever the 9 did with Rey.
The opinions are all over the place right now. As someone who loved DA2, I have no problem with actiony combat and linear world, as long as the storytelling and companions stay the same quality.
Seems like Vailguard is going to be more like DA2 than Inquisition.
I am okay with this.
As long as my MC can be as sassy as purple!Hawke.
The last time the tactical view was relevant was in Origins. Inquisition combat was a joke, and I say this as a fan of the game. The tactical view was useless ninety percent of the time with team members ignoring your commands more often than not. The actual combat itself was a mess too, to the point it was better to stay back and lob spells or arrow rather then risk missing all your attacks because your enemy is slightly higher up a hill. At least this looks more dynamic and skill based with all the projectile & AoE telegraphing.
Damn, rebooted Heretic or Hexen would be cool as hell.
Honestly I wouldn’t mind if the actual game artstyle was like this. Dragon age franchise hasn’t been dark fantasy since DA2, and inquisition has been pretty schizophrenic when it comes to the tone. Might as well go with it and embrace the camp.

Thanks for such thoughtful respose. I agree that 3 levels of fighter would go a long way in increasing the builds power, but this means losing the utility of reliable + extra feat. Honestly, given how plentiful daggers are in the game I might just forgo the returning weapons and lob those at enemies.
No idea. You could just stock up on generic daggers and throw those. No big loss if some got lost.
Suffering from chronic restartitis I’ve just had an idea about a semi unique build I have not seen much discussion about anywhere. I’ve been wondering whether it would be viable or not.
As per title, the gist of the build is going full rogue- but instead of going full DEX we would keep it just high enough to gain +2 to AC and instead go full STR. The benefits of this would be:
- Longer jumps
- (literally) Reliable pushing thanks to profeciency in athletics and the lvl 11 reliable talent
- Sneak attack procs from throwing daggers, which combined with Tavern Brawler could do some serious damage - havent done the math though.
- More carry weight obviously
- could equip one of the
versatileedit: finesseable longswords and take advantage of GWM while still being able to proc sneak attacks
The cons would be lower AC and worse sneaking and pickpocket, though the Reliable talent again would solve those issues at lvl 11.
As for the subclass Thief would work best for extra bonus action I think. Though assassin would probably work too? The guaranteed crit throw sneak attack would obliterate an enemy before the combat even started.
Have anyone tried this?
Edit: as for race obviously Githyanki and maybe Shield dwarf would work best for free Medium armor prof.
Edit2: fixed mistakes
My cat had thrown up all over my bed FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!

Abe Simpson was right all along.
I still cant get over the fact the game I played when I was a teen 15 years ago is such a huge hit among kids now.
Looks nice, is 2 in 1 set, but I am not a Zelda fan so its hard to justify purchasing it, for such a steep price even.
There were hellenic Indo-Greek and Indo-Bactrian states in the northwestern India and Pakistan for some two hundred years. I recommend reading the wikipedia article about greek influence on buddhism. Fascinating stuff.
I was obsessed with Lego as a kid, and would like to get into the hobby once again, not as an investment, but for the fun of it.
I am huge fan of Star Wars, and Lego star wars seem to be all the rage nowadays, but looking at the sets, they seem to be awfully overpriced for what they seem offer.
I am looking for something that will be fun to build, and not terribly pricey (not more than cca 180€). Preferably fantasy or scifi inspired.
I’ve been browsing the lego website and this set in particular cought my eye. Any recommendations? Thanks
