Last night's stream of Dragon Age Inquisition went a lot longer than anticipated because I actually went into the portion of the game where you basically decide between allying with the Mages or the Templars, which in the context of how both are portrayed is an easy decision, since the Mages are basically victims of circumstance.... at least based on the fact I didn't do the Dragon's Keep thing at the start of the game to input decisions from Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age II since I played the first on PC and never played the second. Still, we ended up recruiting a bunch of other characters, which means the making sure everyone is properly equipped with the best gear is gonna be a headache and a half considering how clunky the menu system is in DA:I.
But that said we'll be continuing things tonight, granted it's going to be more focused on exploring one of the many open areas of the game world. So there will be little to no plot advancement as we roam around looking for items, loot and leveling up.
Saw an interview of Maria Kanellis defending the WWE's Divas Era... and once again she sticks her own foot in her mouth. Since that was the era when I was fully invested in watching WWE TV for fan creative purposes, I saw what was going on... and what she she doesn't understand is that just because that era had Mickie James, Victoria and Beth Phoenix, it also had the dead weight like Maria herself, Candice Michelle, Layla El and Michelle McCool, performers who basically justified the WWE not doing anything serious with the women division for the better part of a decade. There is a fucking reason why virtually no female wrestler anywhere says they were inspired by anything from that point in time while also saying they want to make everyone forget about that period of wrestling history. Because 95% of it sucked.
Dropped into Animal Crossing New Horizons this morning as well and had a peculiar interaction with Audie, in that she lost her pull-up bar... which if the size of items in the game is any indication, is something that is close to seven feet tall. Granted I had the item in my inventory because I picked it up from Nook's Cranny a few days ago... but the question is how did Audie lose her own in the first place?
And on that note we'll see ya later tonight over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
