i have way more than 2 nickels at this point but this one felt particularly obvious

sometimes, reading D&D lore, i am reminded that one of bioware's first big games was D&D IP, and many of those writers went directly on to work on dragon age

why is like. impossible to find a discord server that is active and doesn’t have horrendous vibes. i know these people are out there

#simple explanation that activity means more people and more people means also more variance of opinion but ough #every dragon age server i’ve joined is either full of cullen girlies or was only popping for like. two weeks. #i have the same problem with every single fandom i try to get into #why am i so bad at this #making friends in general bht i thought it was supposed to be easier online #personal.txt

reorganized my bookshelves yesterday and i’m absurdly happy w the way this one came together tbh

#everything just kinda. fell perfectly into place #the halla is the perfect size for that space and matches the card #still space for the twins to go with vox machina origins ☺️ #it’s the little things #think i’m gonna put this here actually #personal.txt #or i guess .jpg in this case lol

sorry but it’s sooooo funny to see people on tumblr.gov say “controversial opinion but i think da2 isn’t a good game” like. who is out there saying it IS lmao

#i think they just need to zoom out a bit lol #ppl hornyposting about fenris or whatever isn’t the same as gushing over the game. imo #it’s got potential but like objectively speaking. you can tell it was rushed #it is interesting to explore that potential but #we’re out here playing in the mud to see what we can find in it lmao #i don’t know if anyone would call it a Good game?? #this is in reference to a poll going around that’s like ‘what tumblr fave game do you think is overrated’ and dao is on there #and a couple people in the notes have brought up da2 when it’s not on the list lol #maybe i’m in my comfortable corner but everyone i know who poasts abt da2 is like. aware that it’s kind of garbage in reality #mine #da2

once again i want everyone reading this to know, deep in their heart of hearts, that bethany hawke was lying through her fuckin teeth when she told her sibling that everything was hunky dory in the circle. we know this because

a) bethany is well known for prioritizing other people's comfort before her own

and b) any circle in any of the games is a horrifying prison where abuse and murder are commonplace and the kirkwall circle is infamous for being one of if not THE worst of them all

and c) i'm not sure if you are familiar with how these games go so allow me to summarize

#NO BUT LITERALLY #i genuinely don’t even know. what those people are talking about sometimes lmao #‘the circle is bad bc if you send her there she gets rewarded which just proves that the writers think that’s morally correct’ #is it crack you smoke?? #bethany

just got a second shipping notification 🙌

finally broke down and bought the world of thedas in physical copies and i got the notification the other day that My Order Shipped. but when it came today it only had the second volume :/

#so stoked #i got all of the ebooks a while ago when dark horse was having a crazy sale #but visual stuff like that is hard for me to navigate #i’ve read some of comics but it’s Hard when the dialogue bubbles are so small #and i used the artbook when i. got the physical copy from the library and wanted to save some pics and went ‘wait i can get better quality’ #opened the ebook to the same page i was on and took screenshots of that 🤪 #so anyway i’m wicked excited for this

i think it is important to recognize the ways in which your favorite thing sucks. i think it keeps u normal
