Davrin, Bellara, and Solas Elven History Banter | Dragon Age: The Veilguard

[@yanderefangirl8317]

The Dalish Grey Warden has a good point about Solas and Mythal: They killed the Titans for their Lyrium aka ‘Titan Blood’, started the Blight, caused centuries of horrible battles against Darkspawn, and the Grey Wardens were left to clean up their mess.

Reason 9867 on why Davrin is the most gigachad Dalish in the series

[@korawitbuttramee618]

The man is the second and the third thing Solas hates the most: a Dalish Grey Warden. The world is ending and Solas just has to throw shade at Davrin because he can't resist a chance to act like he's better than a Dalish since he knows what they don't. Only for Davrin to essentially tell him he doesn't give a shit. That oughta hurt for someone who is pretty much an embodiment of pride.

I made the mistake of just running through this section since killing enemies is not actually required here. Thus, I regretfully missed all the party members casting shade on Solas.

Omg where do you get that bow?

[@maiafay]

“The first time” was reused more than once. Elgar’nan used it when arguing with Solas in the Blood of Arlathan quest. I think it was used again somewhere else. Man, they needed a copy editor, or some sort of oversight on dialogue. Solas also used “tenuous connection” twice. It’s so sloppy. And while I get why Bellara is mad, Mythal was no damn saint. She coerced Solas over from the fade, used him to make a weapon, then betrayed him and took power. Did anyone talk to that snot in the crossroads? That fragment? She was insufferable. Oh no though, it’s all his fault. Oh okay. 👍

Guys, shitting on DAV writing because of insignificant, subjective details is becoming quite boring. Don't you have better hobbies?

[@AmbigousInfluence]

Wow, its almost like writers reuse terms that are significant and create characterization. Please learn about how to write if you are going to critique it,

[@Just_a-guy]

What term would you use here? She is asking why Solas killed Mythal and he is trying to shift the conversation away. How would you worded that exchange? "Only the first time" sounds natural to me here. She could ask "then what did you do to her?", but it is basically that same meaning without directly calling him murderer.

[@RevanSurik]

Please. In BG3 characters reuse terms like "not even close" or "ta!" multiple times even between different characters (so it can't be argued to be just an individual's speech pattern). You going to say BG3's writing is bad because of that?

[@scarocci7333]

LOOK THESE CHARACTERS USED AN EXPRESSION MORE THAN ONCE THIS IS BAD WRITING. Holy shit dude, get help.
