I have found a few new bits again :
- In Redcliffe, the people are stupid. There are boats out there on the lake. Why don't they just gather on them and outdrive the approaching "hordes" ?
- A plot question :
- Another plot question :
- And I've found a rather serious, but not at all game breaking bug, just a nuisance :
I think I've found another case of "stupidness", too,
but I can't remember anymore, what it was.
- And what I found quite lame was the demon of the Tower - not the last boss, the one before that … because it followed so closely the cliché of "you didn't defeat him at all. You defaeted just another form of him".
- And the day before yesterday I was thinking of writing a lengthy "rant" here as well … Something about Dragon Age rather leaving a taste of bitterness in my mouth than entertaining me. Which led me to the thought that Dragon Age might appeal to other "senses" than just "fun". Because I cannot find much "fun" in such a dreaded world.
But I must also say that I just can't understand why people actually like horror (movies, novels), gothic and movies like "Saw". I just can't understand it. It's beyond my "senses".
Coming from board games to pen & paper role-playing games and at the same time to PC adventure and role-playing games, "gaming" as such has always the factor of "fun" in it. I just can't understand why people do like horror-themed pen & peper RPGs. I fail to see any "fun" and "en-joy" factor in it. (Enjoy -> en-joy -> joy)
Dragon Age is like a … an exciting novel, the plot is imho quite interesting in some places, but it plys rather than a novel of grom times than something fun and colourful like … Commander Keen, for example. There are WORLDS between both (two worlds ? )
Okay, enough ranting. I think you already know me good enough to know how I think.

- A plot question :
In Redcliffe, one can get through asking the reply that magicians from the Tower could be able to defeat the demon alone … - but how do I do that ? The Circle is more or less dead, and there's only one magician now with the party - Wynne. Would she be able to face the demon who's possessing Connor ? And if so - how ?
- Another plot question :
When battling the last boss of the Tower, does the special book hve any consequences ? I *think* in my case it made the boss lose its human form, but I'm not sure … Can Irwing be saved somehow ?
- And I've found a rather serious, but not at all game breaking bug, just a nuisance :
Within the Daydream sequence within the Tower, when the "image" of Morrigan's mother is "killed", talking to Morrigan once more shows the same animation that was shown when the "image" of Morrigan's Mother still "lived".
