Awakening_0001.jpg

Let's start with some companion dialouge, shall we?

PO_Codexer2.png
Let me guess- - Your mother?

PO_Nathaniel.png
Good guess. That's her

Awakening_0004.jpg


Awakening_0005.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Do you have any fond memories of your family?

PO_Nathaniel.png
That does qualify as a fond memory. I know, I know. It's strange

Are all Bioware party members full of bullshit or is it just me?

PO_Nathaniel.png
I was in the free Marches for almost eight years. I don't have any memories of my family at all.

DOES BIOWARE HONESTLY EXPECT ME TO FEEL SORRY FOR THIS GUY?!

Awakening_0009.jpg


* * * *
Outside the keep...

Awakening_0010.jpg


Awakening_0011.jpg

Dude your hitting on a... statue! GET A LIFE!

PO_Codexer2.png
Are you looking for realism? It's an icon.

PO_Anders.png
Just wondering aloud. After all, Andraste did exist, didn't she?

Awakening_0014.jpg

She would destory this world before the Biowarian Empire came and would ruin it with their storytelling and bland characters.

PO_Codexer2.png
She was fighting against mages.

Awakening_0016.jpg


Awakening_0017.jpg


PO_Anders.png
But the Chantry uses her words as a reason to collar us just for being who we are.

PO_Codexer2.png
I completely agree.

PO_Anders.png
That's so sweet of you. I'm all a-tingle.

Too scared.. to... be.. snide.

Awakening_0021.jpg


Let's check on the other fine people who are in keep the Vigil running.

Awakening_0022.jpg


Awakening_0024.jpg

WTF :retarded:

Awakening_0025.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
This isn't Denerim.

Awakening_0028.jpg

Fuck you.

Awakening_0029.jpg


Awakening_0030.jpg


Awakening_0031.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
My men will need armor.

Awakening_0033.jpg

Just shut the :rage: up.

Awakening_0034.jpg


Awakening_0036.jpg


Awakening_0037.jpg


Awakening_0039.jpg

Whatever. As long as you don't make all the walls pink. I hate pink.

PO_Dwarf.png
My borther said you'd need a stonemason, but he didn't know the half of it.

PO_Codexer2.png
Welcome to the Vigil.

PO_Dwarf.png
You're too kind.

Awakening_0043.jpg


Awakening_0044.jpg


Awakening_0045.jpg


There's always a catch, no?

PO_Codexer2.png
I might regret this. What would take to rebuild it right?

Awakening_0047.jpg

This is just typical dwarven bullshit.

Awakening_0048.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Would eighty sovereigns do? I can raise that much, in time.

Awakening_0050.jpg


That's it for now. Next update we'll meet our vassals and FINALLY head out to Amaranthine!

Well, you DO know how Biowarian forums are, right? In-game characters like these look perfectly sane compared with the scum there...

Dialouge is indeed boring. had to FORCE myself through the first minutes of the game, but I promise that the dialouge will get much more interesting once we get ot a certain point in the game.

Sory for the interval between updates. I was busy with new year stuff.

Awakening_0051.jpg

Before we can embark on our main quests. Some local people are in the mood to bitch us about their problems. What else is new?

Awakening_0053.jpg


PO_Varel.png
These were Arl Rendon Howe's vassals. Now they will be yours.

PO_Codexer2.png
What do I need to know about them?

PO_Varel.png
Some of these lords bore Rendon no love, but others had their prospects ruined with his demise.

PO_Varel.png
Tread carefully, commander

Awakening_0058.jpg


img-43.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
(Persuade) Our differences are many, but our cause is one.

Yeah right. Like someone would actually believe this bullshit.

Awakening_0060.jpg


Awakening_0061.jpg


Awakening_0062.jpg

That's one ugly bitch.

Awakening_0063.jpg

Meanwhile, Codexer goes for a snack break.

PO_Varel.png
...And so the ceremony is complete.

Awakening_0065.jpg

This guy seems like a nice fella. Let's chat

Awakening_0066.jpg

Let me guess. You have a quest for us?

Awakening_0067.jpg

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

Awakening_0068.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Isn't the situation dire everywhere? :smug:

Awakening_0070.jpg


Awakening_0071.jpg


Awakening_0072.jpg

He's got a point there. Whether we like it or not.

PO_Codexer2.png
I will take the matter under advisement.

Translated into codex language this means: FUCK YOU! I'VE GOT MORE IMPORTANT STUFF TO DO!

Awakening_0075.jpg

Mrs. Ugly bitch decides to join the conversation.

PO_Esmerellel.png
Do not be decieved, commander, his livelihood is all he cares about.

PO_Esmerellel.png
Amaranthine is the jewel of the arling. And she must be protected.

PO_Codexer2.png
Why protect the city over country folk?

Awakening_0079.jpg

If only mrs. Ugly Bitch was right...

Awakening_0080.jpg


Awakening_0081.jpg

I don't think you can call Bioware NPCs "human"

Awakening_0083.jpg


Awakening_0084.jpg

Anders decides to have a little conversation.

PO_Anders.png
If you see any damsels in distress, send them my way.

Like they'll surive your attitude.

Awakening_0086.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
What did they say?

Awakening_0089.jpg


Awakening_0090.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Are you implying there are traitors in our midst?

Awakening_0092.jpg

:retarded: This is the most retarded dialouge line I've ever heard.

Awakening_0093.jpg


Awakening_0094.jpg

I want to chop of their heads myself! :twisted:

PO_Codexer2.png
Ander said he overheard some people who are planning to conspire against me.

Awakening_0096.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
No idea. It's speculation at this point. Could be nothing.

PO_Varel.png
Better to be a touch paranoid than turning up face down in a ditch.

Awakening_0099.jpg


Awakening_0102.jpg


Awakening_0103.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Where can I find this "Dark Wolf"?

Let me guess. It starts with an A and ends wit maranthine.

Awakening_0105.jpg

Told ya so.

Awakening_0106.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Eddelbrek siad we're not defending the farmlands.

Awakening_0108.jpg


Awakening_0110.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Amaranthine has it's walls. Let the farms have our soldiers.

What's this an RPG or a poetry contest?

PO_Codexer2.png
The ceremony has gone on long enough.

Awakening_0114.jpg


* * * *
Awakening_0115.jpg

Outside, Nathaniel notices a familiar face.

Awakening_0116.jpg


Awakening_0117.jpg


PO_Nathaniel.png
And my sister? I... was in the Free Marches.

Awakening_0119.jpg


Awakening_0120.jpg


PO_Nathaniel.png
Did you hear that? My sister's alive!

PO_Codexer2.png
That's wonderfull news!

In my head, this line was delivered sarcastically.

Awakening_0123.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
We could take a look, yes.

Awakening_0125.jpg


Awakening_0126.jpg

We're finally going to embark on our main quests. We're heading straight to Amaranthine.

Awakening_0127.jpg


Oh crap, I almost forgot: HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Sorry for the long dissapearance! I got a flu and was sick for almost a week. But anyway, Let's Play!

Last update, we made it to the beautiful city of Amaranthine
Awakening_0003.jpg

I guess it isn't as beautiful as our party imagined.

Awakening_0004.jpg

Hello to you too, kind ser.

PO_Codexer2.png
Are you the hunter who found the entrance to the Deep Roads?

Awakening_0006.jpg


Awakening_0007.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
You don't seem happy about your find.

Awakening_0010.jpg

Can't argue with that.

Awakening_0011.jpg


Awakening_0012.jpg


Awakening_0013.jpg


That's a nice bedtime story and all but...

PO_Codexer2.png
And the chasm?

Awakening_0015.jpg

:roll:

Awakening_0016.jpg

He's really stupid. Doesn't Bioware know how chasms are created? Did they just think we all still believe in god?

Awakening_0017.jpg

My reactions: :? :( :retarded: :x

Awakening_0018.jpg

He's just ignoring his "egg" friend here.

PO_Codexer2.png
What happened then?

Awakening_0020.jpg


Awakening_0021.jpg

Shut up retard.

Awakening_0022.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
How many?

Awakening_0024.jpg

WTF is that supposed to mean?

Awakening_0025.jpg

They were probably going out to buy CoD: Black Ops

PO_Anders.png
The Darkspawn were so occupied as to overlook two screaming, injured men? Boggles the mind.

Yeah you and me both Anders.

Awakening_0027.jpg

A Chasm in an RPG can only mean one thing: FREE LOOT!

Awakening_0028.jpg

So it's gold you and egg boy want eh? Well...

PO_Codexer2.png
Not today.

Awakening_0030.jpg

Where's the "punch him in the face, Mass Effect style" option here?

Anyway we continue our trip of Amaranthine...
Awakening_0031.jpg

Dammit! I should've paid those bills.

Awakening_0032.jpg

Just to set things straight, my character is NOT touching her boobs.

PO_Codexer2.png
Who gave this to you?

Awakening_0034.jpg


Awakening_0035.jpg

That must be the Dark Wolf.

PO_Codexer2.png
Wait. Wolf? As in Dark Wolf?

Awakening_0037.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Thank you for the message. Good day.

Awakening_0040.jpg

Right let's go find the Dark Wolf.

Awakening_0041.jpg

Look we didn't do it!

PO_Codexer2.png
I am the Warden commander of Vigil's Keep.

Awakening_0043.jpg


Awakening_0044.jpg

Like hell he is.

Awakening_0045.jpg

Fuck off.

Awakening_0047.jpg

Lalala all I'm hearing is failure.

PO_Codexer2.png
Is there anything I can do?

No! Don't volunteer you stupid!

Awakening_0049.jpg


Right let's conti...

Awakening_0050.jpg

:sigh:

Awakening_0051.jpg

Turns out this is the sister we're looking for.

Awakening_0052.jpg


Awakening_0053.jpg


Awakening_0054.jpg

In lol'd at this point because, in my country there is a supermarket called the Albert Heijn. Turns out this storekeeper is going to be an important part of my country.

Awakening_0055.jpg


Awakening_0056.jpg

Palpatine got cought up in politics too. Look how that turned out.

Awakening_0057.jpg

At least we did. (If you read the Dragon Age LP)

Awakening_0058.jpg


PO_Nathaniel.png
I... had no idea.

Awakening_0060.jpg


Awakening_0061.jpg

Meanwhile, Codexer, Anders and Oghren go out to play Black Ops.

Awakening_0062.jpg


Awakening_0063.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
I didn't know him, but he tried to ruin the order.

Awakening_0065.jpg

War. War never changes

Awakening_0066.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Maybe he was never who you thought he was.

PO_Nathaniel.png
I suppose not.

Awakening_0069.jpg

Well, you kinda are a fool y'know..

Awakening_0070.jpg

You can think? :retarded:

Awakening_0072.jpg

Another NPC is in the mood to bitch about.

PO_Codexer2.png
They got through.

Awakening_0075.jpg


Awakening_0076.jpg

That's... kinda EXTREME

PO_Codexer2.png
And you suspect Darkspawn?

Awakening_0078.jpg

Sounds like Darkspawn to me.

PO_Codexer2.png
I 'll look into it if I find the time.

Awakening_0082.jpg

Awakening_0090.jpg

Out of the kindness of your heart :P

Awakening_0094.jpg

I guess not. :(

PO_Codexer2.png
Then fifty sovereigns it is.

Awakening_0099.jpg


Awakening_0100.jpg


Awakening_0101.jpg

looks like Anders has a friend

Awakening_0102.jpg

Cache? What Cache? (FREE LOOT :P)

PO_Anders.png
It is? You found it?

Awakening_0104.jpg


PO_Anders.png
Er, I guess I should thank you.

Awakening_0106.jpg

Looks like Anders has screwed up a lot of times in the past.

PO_Anders.png
I... suppose that requires some explanation.

PO_Codexer2.png
No! Not at all! Don't be silly. :smug:

PO_Codexer2.png
You don't seem very good at eluding them.

My phylactery is among them, Namaya learned.

Awakening_0115.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
But you're a Grey Warden now.

Awakening_0117.jpg

Dude, seriously FUCK THE CHANTRY

Awakening_0118.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
You're right. They shouldn't be allowed to control you.

Awakening_0120.jpg

Right. We'll get to it in the next update.

For now, let's visit the local Tavern and look for that Kirstoff guy

Awakening_0121.jpg


Awakening_0122.jpg

Where's the "get wasted" dialouge option? :x

Awakening_0123.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
I a Codexer, also a Grey Warden.

Awakening_0125.jpg


Awakening_0126.jpg

Nothing is ever easy in Bioware games :sigh:

Awakening_0127.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
I'd like the key to Kirstoff's room

Awakening_0129.jpg


Awakening_0130.jpg


Awakening_0131.jpg


That's it for now folks.

I'm going to ask you: What will be our next objective?
* Look for Kirstoff in the Blackmarsh
* Investigate the caravan attacks
* Investigate the Darkspawn chasm

Choose well!

So Howe Jr went from "I hate you" to "You know, you might be right" in what... 10 minutes of game time? That's weak, even for Bioware.

As for what to do... we'll probably have to do it all at some point so I don't really care. May as well go into the deep roads via the chasm.

I sense this LP will make me :x much in the future. Much obliged :love:

The Codex has decided. We'll be investigating the Darkspawn chasm.

First, let's see the Dark Wolf and see if he's got anything useful to say.
Awakening_0001.jpg


Awakening_0002.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
That was quick.

Awakening_0004.jpg

It's just the shitty quest design of Bioware.

Awakening_0005.jpg


Awakening_0006.jpg

I guess it's time to chop off some heads!

PO_Codexer2.png
Then I must make haste.

Before we deal with the traitors, let's finish Anders' side quest

Awakening_0009.jpg

Could it be?

Awakening_0010.jpg

Fuck. It's that Templar bitch who wanted Anders dead.

PO_Anders.png
Ah. Yes, I suppose I should have known it would be you.

Awakening_0012.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
He has made a fine Grey Warden so far.

Awakening_0014.jpg


Awakening_0015.jpg

Go to hell, bitch!

Awakening_0016.jpg

Anders decides to speak for himself (finally!)

Awakening_0017.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
No. He stays with us. (Fuck you)

Awakening_0019.jpg

That's it. She's dead

Awakening_0021.jpg


Awakening_0023.jpg


Awakening_0024.jpg


PO_Anders.png
Thank you. You stood by me, and I appreciate that.

PO_Codexer2.png
I never liked Templars much.

PO_Anders.png
That's because they're all jerks

True.

Awakening_0028.jpg


Time to deal with the traitors. Let's travel the the Old Stark's farm

Awakening_0029.jpg


Awakening_0030.jpg

This fight is actually quite easy, if you take care of the Crow Assassin, he can deal shitloads of damage and can kill your party pretty quick.

Awakening_0032.jpg

We are victorious (Hooray!)

Next stop: The Darkspawn chasm

Awakening_0033.jpg

Isn't it beautiful?

Awakening_0034.jpg

And there's the chasm. Let's explore

Awakening_0035.jpg

We go deeper...

Awakening_0036.jpg

...And it's cutscene time!

Awakening_0037.jpg

It's a dwarf

Awakening_0038.jpg

She breaks free.

Awakening_0040.jpg

And we've got to help her.

Awakening_0042.jpg

Uh-huh

PO_Codexer2.png
Are you all right?

Awakening_0044.jpg


Awakening_0045.jpg

:smug:

Awakening_0046.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
Back where?

Awakening_0048.jpg

Old fortress = FREE LOOT :P !

Awakening_0049.jpg


PO_Codexer2.png
How did you get away?

Awakening_0051.jpg


Awakening_0052.jpg

They didn't rape them did they?

PO_Codexer2.png
I will fight with you. Together, we can avenge the Legion.

Awakening_0054.jpg

Because Bioware's forcing us to.

PO_Codexer2.png
I am a Grey Warden

PO_Sigrun.png
Ah. My condolences

Awakening_0057.jpg


Awakening_0058.jpg

We ditch Oghren and take Sigrun (the viking dwarf) with us.

The expansion is somehow managing to be even more boring and have even stupider writing than the main game. I'm impressed.

Carry on good sir, and thank you for playing this so we don't have to :salute:
