Hi, I Know Many People Are Excited For The New Dragon Age, Me Too, But Just A Reminder: DON'T PREORDER

Hi, I know many people are excited for the new Dragon Age, me too, but just a reminder: DON'T PREORDER IT

No seriously, don't. I advise not preordering any game actually, but especially not one that is from EA. I fully expect it to launch with at least one game breaking bug, not counting the plethora of just highly annoying ones. Nowadays, so many games are released in a barely playable shitty state, but companies don't care since people keep preordering the games so the money is flowing in.

Just wait. A day, two days, see if it's actually playable, then buy it if everything is alright. It's better than throwing away a shitload of money (and it's a 2024 AAA game published by EA, it's gonna cost A LOT) and then feeling shitty when the game is just bad.

i'm having absolutely perverse thoughts about emmrich volkarin being touched and touching in return and marveling at how responsive his partner is. thinking thinking thinking about him pressing his lips to the veins in his partner's wrist and having to shut his eyes in order to let the sensation of their pulse drumming against his mouth wash over him. his work isn't particularly lonely (he does have peers, after all), but it doesn't give him a great deal of wiggle room in terms of romance, after all, and there was no small amount of yearning in him even thirty years ago. how much has changed since? is he still lonely? does he still want to be loved and cared for so completely that his partner wants their bones to rest alongside his?

devastated at the idea of lucanis getting lumped in with our usual kind of mage haters because he’s “the mage killer”. he’s just good at his job and they let him kill slavers about it!!! he has these special senses for the fade it’s that he has the specific skillset for it not that he’s Being Weird about it

Lucanis Dellamorte

Rogue, antivan crow, walking dumpster fire.

Emmrich being comfortable with the idea that he won't find a long term partner in this lifetime and despite finding himself attracted to Rook tries to keep them at arms length, even to the point where he mentally tries to pair them up with another of their companions to sway his thoughts away from Rook.

Yet.

He can't deny that there are moments with Rook that feel as if they are solely reserved for him.

The deep relaxed sighs and comfortable silence over tea.

The lingering glances and poorly hidden grin when he says something witty.

The way their features soften and warm when he enters a room.

He can cherish those moments even if he feels as though he cannot cherish Rook alone.
