When it comes to Dragon Age, the Alistair romance is my favourite by far. His character development (btw, look up "hardening", it's a pretty important element later in the game, I'm sure you'll find a spoiler-free guide) is amazing, and he's just so adorably bashful and charming. And sometimes he's hilariously dumb. Steve Valentine really did an incredible job on the voice acting.
Morrigan's romance is interesting as well, though her friendship is more interesting imo. And yes the suggestive comments she makes to Sten are hilarious.

Exactly. I'm not against sex in games, but I am against it when it's treated as a way to get attention to the game. It's cheap and lazy, but it gets the horny teenage nerds who bring the profit. And yeah the collectible nudes thing is just disgusting to me. Idk, I have a pretty strong opinion on treating other people like trophies and using sex for attention, I even argue with my boyfriend about it cause he's a fan of the Witcher series. And while the games are not bad per se, there is some clever writing and I've had a bit of fun with them, imo they're pretty mediocre (well okay the first one is just bad. And not even funny bad, just bad bad. The other two are okay though), they bring nothing new to the gaming industry, just rehash popular elements from other games, and bring a lot of attention to themselves with the pretty excessive sex scenes.

Yeah agreed the Witcher games feel like more of a male fantasy – being the alpha dude (the exact one most gamers despise irl, ironically), fucking chicks left and right, having sex as the reward for every second side quest, the "good old" damsel in distress being saved by a big strong man kind of narrative. Though there are some strong female characters in the series but honestly to me they seemed more like Mary Sues thrown in there in order to shut up the women who would potentially complain about every female character being a useless fuck doll.
BioWare games are a lot better in that respect, in my personal opinion. The characters aren't just two dimensional playthings, their romances and characters feel real and somehow truly human (even though there are aliens and elves and qunari lol). I really hope BioWare gets to the top again, Mass Effect (original trilogy, I haven't played Andromeda yet) and Dragon Age are my favorite series ever because of their characters and writing.

I don't really understand why exactly you need to wake up early, to celebrate your dog's B-day... but I 100% support it. Dogs are precious.

Yeah but from what I hear from other Americans on the internet, generally all it takes is an hour or two of paperwork, and sometimes they even say that they think it's too much. In my country, the tests consist of a medical/psychological checkup, knowledge of the law concerning guns, technical/mechanical knowledge (assembling and disassembling etc.) and the obvious criminal record check. It can take a couple weeks because you gotta study for those tests. Basically, guns are treated the same way as cars, you gotta have a licence for a specific type and you gotta pass a theoretical and practical exam to get it. I really don't see what exactly about this system makes people think we're anti-gun or anti-freedom or whatever, the way it works seems perfectly reasonable to me. But I grew up in this environment, I'm obviously not unbiased.

But that's the thing, Americans often have this notion that Europeans are anti-gun. We're not. We just have some tests in place that can tell whether you are a responsible person or a total nutjob. So people who just wanna have a gun for protection or hobby can get it but people who would use it to shoot up a school can't.

Yeah exactly. Dress codes won't help, seeing 5 extra square inches of knee skin makes literally no difference. I think what you're referring to is the Washington post article from 2016, at least that's the first thing that popped up when I went to google the statistics about rapists not remembering the victim's clothes. According to the article, "deputy principal Cherith Telford at Henderson High School in New Zealand told female students that their uniform skirts must be knee-length in order to 'keep our girls safe, stop boys from getting ideas and create a good work environment for male staff,' "
Seriously, if your staff gets aroused by CHILDREN'S KNEES to the point of feeling uncomfortable because they can't control themselves, you shouldn't force your students to buy brand new clothing. You should hire better staff.

It's really sad to see that people still think that way. The way you dress has nothing to do with whether you were raped or not. Rapists are predators, they're fucked in the head, their utmost concern is not being caught. They're more likely to look for people who are alone, in a secluded place with no witnesses and who look weak and easy to overpower. Blaming rape on the victim's clothes is just pathetic. Reminds me of this video: https://youtu.be/51-hepLP8J4

I don't wanna sound like a killjoy but most white people's scalp skin is extremely pale. It makes sense since it's covered by hair all your life and only becomes your "normal" skin tone if you shave your head, then it can tan a little before the hair grows back.
I remember when a high school classmate came to school the day after shaving his head. It looked kinda funny because he decided to shave his head right after summer had ended so he was tanned and his scalp was just pearly, shiny white. It was astonishing.

The cat should drink.... to satisfy its hunger....
I mean I know that milk is heavier than most liquids and there's also this "cats love milk" stereotype but why not just make it a bowl of cat food or chunks of meat or a plump birdie?

I wish FS would let you post images in comments, then we could make this a thing again

Then say far left, not just left. I'm sick and tired of people putting all left leaning people in the same bag with the feminazis and SJWs and all right leaning people with the Alt-Right and Christian fundamentalists. It creates an extreme dichotomy which is very counterproductive to any debate or conversation.

But isn't it more selfish to demand other people to go against their nature just because you don't like it?

What's... what's wrong with that? I mean I don't really use the "[something] much" phrase but it's fairly common nowadays and I see nothing wrong, grammar or vocabulary-wise.

But that's the thing, being overly polite to someone who's so insistent despite not having any protection with them may lead to them persuading you in the end, especially if alcohol is involved. Being rude to them will surely make them fuck off, and this girl has the right idea.

I could be talking about this game for hours as well. I've played it so many times, but it always manages to surprise me with its little secrets and undiscovered hidden quests and thingies. Part of the reason why I love it so much.
My favourite origin is probably mage. The "true tests never end" line really got me when I played it for the first time. And the cute conversation with Cullen if you're a fem!Warden is hilarious! The dalish origin is interesting also, especially its later effect. What's yours?
