Dragon Age (00:28: 05)

What is Dragon Age?
How did we get into Dragon Age?
How the series progresses
Templars vs Mages
Thoughts in representation of PoC in DA? The character creator is certainly getting better but the only NPCs of color seem to be human (unless I’m misremembering). Why not dwarves and elves? @The_Doc_Webb
Tanya's article on representation in Dragon Age
Which secondary character have you been the most sad not to be able to smooch? @mk_patter
Varic writes books. Mordin sings in plays. What hobbies or side jobs do you envision your other DA and ME buds having? @OrkChop
Best party composition for entertaining banter? Love the party members snarking at each other while we’re roaming around! @thornmallow
DA is a series with really high stakes and where humanity (unlike in Mass Effect) is not that special. Do you appreciate that about it? @MtoAllPro
Is there a moment in any DA that always makes you cringe (for any reason) playing through it? @TimpoAdante
DA:O's Deep Roads, "A good way to spend an afternoon" or "Is there an end to this"? What did you think? @estelliaslair
In your mind are the Wardens good guys, bad guys, neither, and why? I see them more as a necessary evil than anything else. Thus why my warden was super evil and a jerk. @MtoAllPro
Are you disappointed that we never get to experience the Warden's adventures in DA:I (as seen in Leliana quests)? @estelliaslair
Is the Inquisition set to be good for later games or will it be corrupted like the Wardens, Templar, Circles and every other organization. @MtoAllPro
Which DA do you feel has the best story? Does it also have the best characters? @TimpoAdante
Most bittersweet romance? My vote is for a devout Inquisitor romancing Cassandra as she becomes Divine. @The_Doc_Webb
