Oh my God, I am trying so hard to concentrate on my World Literature homework but the Xbox is right there and I have to save the Arl's son but that damn Desire Demon keeps kicking my ass and I'm not good at being a mage.

*Wheeze* I'm so into this game. D:

I pretty much screwed up my chances of passing the book exam today. Who cares about translation theory? New areas to explore on the maaap!

Oh fuuuuck just how much I love Dragon Age. I've got all the gang except the dwarf and Shale who is a code-locked character and so far we're having a blast. There was a (sexy) triangle! Can't I keep all my boys and girls?! Even if just for the squabbles and running commentary? Alistair especially sasses with everybody and has a wonderful delivery, so no grumblings about the Bioware Male from me. "Swooping is baaaad."

Which Origin did you pick, by the way?

I've only got two party members and they're already chatting among themselves and sharing their pasts. It's true what I heard, it's insanely difficult to be Nice to everyone in the party; someone always disagrees. My character doesn't get along with Morrigan at all. I tried, though! We just disagree! It's awesome. ♥

Oh my God, Alistair got to you, too? Then it's definitely not just me; there's more than meets the eye there. I rofled when he asked me if I had had any strange dreams and my options were basically "yes", "no", "yes, about strangling you in your sleep" and "yes, about us making mad love in my tent". Considering how stoic my character is, I can just imagine the flat delivery of that one ( ... )

*sighs* You people. I have birthday monies but I am not spending them on a goddamn game console. Don't tempt me. XD

Okay, how about I just come over on Saturday evening? And all of Sunday is basically wide open, too...

[ilonpilaaja]Oliko meillä peliä sunnuntaina, vai omistaudutko kokonaan louhkäärmeille?[/ilonpilaaja]

Onnea vaan. Ikinä en ole iloisempi ollut, etten ole tullut mistään hankkineeksi minkäänlaista pelimasiinaa... tai edes riittävän jytyä kompuutteria. XD Mun addiktiopotentiaali on turhan suuri joten elämä kaikkoaisi sillä silmänräpäyksellä kun peli astuu sisään.

Ai niin, se oli tämä. Okei, hommaan jotain muuta ohjelmaa sitten. ;)

On the contrary! Bioware cares about students. It cares enough to fashion the very best cocainegame it can. They can't help it if cocaine is expensive to make! They also can't help it if students decide to prioritize getting their fixplaying their games above jobs or lectures!

As for Alistair's "stupid hair", several NPCs have it too, so no biggie! ^_^ Too bad they don't have a more outrageous (i.e. Cloud Strife) hair style available...

So how far are you into the game? Because I'm surprised you've only mentioned those two! (I have not done that origin yet, so no idea there)

I know, the hairstyles are limited. It was weird to be faced with someone who looked completely different from my character, but had exactly the same hair... As for Alistair's, I just tend to think of it as the Mika Häkkinen.

Like I said, I'd only been playing for about six hours when I wrote the entry. The game has sucked lots more hours out of me since... Zevran the Town Slut just joined our merry band of heroes.

Yeah, I know that feeling. There are apparently only two truly unique hairstyles in the whole game!

Zevran the Town Bicycle (because everybody gets a ride)is fairly amusing in his own way. ^_^
