Mae, "We have to use the system to beat the system." Dorian, "The system is quite literally broken, it's the very reason for the abuse of power." Dorian will only ever be the correct choice.

[@sophiefrankis9476]

I like that even though they have different methods, they stull respect and support the other wholeheartedly. No bitterness about who gets chosen. Just good friends.

[@anders8461]

Dorian is going to be a more successful Archon imho. Tevinter is used to magisters forcing their way to achieve power. Dorian with the Shadow Dragons would bring down the "bad" magisters. Dorian got the power, the will, the wit and the charm to lead Tevinter into a better future. Vote for Dorian 🎉🎉😂😂

[@lonespectre5329]

Well… one is someone we know and fought side-by-side with. He’s also willing to adopt other tactics and ideals for Tevinter. The other is some nobody we’ve heard of once in a text operation in Inquisition. I’m going to go with the guy I know and trust.

[@nia427147]

Hard to say because shadow dragon Rook would know Mae better than the Inquisitor. And DA fans that do consume media outside the game would know Mae from the comics.

[@lonespectre5329]

@ She was in a comic?

[@ZrodyApo]

Mae is an established character from books & comics but yeah, giving her such a "major" role in the game when most people don't know who tf she is AND making a choice between her or a previous beloved character was definitely a good move by Bioware 🤡

[@AN-yv8qi]

Yeah Dorian sounds like the ideal choice. He comes across as knowing what it takes rather than 'dangerously renegade'. No offence to Maevaris I like her but hell yeah Dorian let's crush slavery.

[@varric]

@@lonespectre5329 Yes, and she was married with one of Varric's cousins.

[@samuraininjarockstar6309]

Dorian needs to have interesting dialogue when he becomes Archon. How would the Inquisition companions react. Especially Iron Bull and the Divine (Cassandra, Leliana, or Vivienne).

[@nineblackgoats]

Maevaris is a great politician, but Tevinter needs a fighter.

[@Lethal_Giggles]

Honestly this was one of the most disappointing plot points in the whole game. In Inquisition there was blackmail, political intrigue, favor, scandal and a social gathering to attend in order to choose the next ruler for Orlias. But this game just skips all that and everything was basically happening in the background until we kill some corrupt police officer or something, and then we just choose either Dorian or Maeve.

[@lorrithelinguist]

Make your own game then.

[@Lethal_Giggles]

@ How would I make a Dragon Age game when I would be sued into oblivion the moment I start? Silly little activist

[@lorrithelinguist]

@Lethal_Giggles then stop complaining. The game was already made. You just want to be miserable.

[@hiatusinc]

I will pick Dorian because he has same hairstyle as young!Solas

[@varric]

Then just choose Mae. Nothing is good is something is shared with the Egghead.

[@sindelcage]

When i saved Treviso, in the end Dorian become Archon.

[@BBS-dl1lt]

Do you only get this quest if you save Minrathous?

[@sindelcage]

@BBS-dl1lt yes

[@BBS-dl1lt]

@@sindelcage aw that’s sad. Is there an equivalent quest in Treviso that you only get by saving them?

[@AN-yv8qi]

Good for him, go get them Dorian I'm proud of you 💕

[@sindelcage]

@BBS-dl1lt not really, I think, because if u save Treviso, then Shadow dragons will be almost fully destroyed, but Crows still work if u not save Treviso. But u can't romance Lucanis if u do not save Treviso, and his relationship with Spite will change to

[@Loveless1128]

Finally, a video with Maevaris in it so I can see what she looks like in the game! Wait... that's... but her comic art has her so glamorous. Why does she look like that?? The wiki says that her name and appearance are meant to be inspired by Mae West. She doesn't look anything like Mae West!

[@lorrithelinguist]

Because she's older in the events of the game lmao

[@Loveless1128]

@@lorrithelinguist By only ten years! Looking up pictures, she looks more like 84 Mae West than she should, at most, be in her 50s!

[@debishvebishwish4839]

Maevaris as Archon and Neve as Threads Boss. If Maevaris failed, then Neve can clean things up.

[@devonbickett349]

I chose Dorian mostly because he'd be the Chaotically correct choice for one he'd keep the people and other mages on their toes Maevaris would just play little miss Bleeding Heart of Goodness

[@lorrithelinguist]

Maeveris is so real here. People are the strongest weapon.

[@Burnouts3s3-z2v]

*SPOILERS* Stupid question: is this quest locked out or unavailable if you save Treviso over Minrathous?

[@VideoGameSophistry]

Yes - if you save Treviso you don't get this quest

[@kratosraptor8536]

Well, that explains why I didn't get in my playthrough ​@VideoGameSophistry

[@Tito_michi]

It doesn't matter, I think, even if we get another Dragon Age game, there will be no choices from the Veilguard.

[@kratosraptor8536]

I never got this during my playthrough

[@Dani-rp2pf]

The voice actress sounds familiar and Google isn't helpful

[@trutenii]

Candis Cayne

[@Dani-rp2pf]

@@trutenii Thank you, but I'm thinking of a character, not the actress herself. My question wasn't worded the best, I admit. She sounds like a background character/minor character and I'm not finding either her credit for it or the person who sounds like her.

[@MichaelHonscar]

I chose Maevaris. Not only do I like the character, but I’m so tired when “Fans” don’t bother to do any outside the game research and don’t even know who half the characters are sometimes. Want to really be into Dragon Age? Read the books, watch the movies, etc.

[@connernickerson5509]

No, we are tired of these delusional characters, which reflect real world ham fisted politics, in our games. This game flopped due to wokeness, and yet another once great franchise lies in smoldering ruins. Oh well, there's always Mass effect to destroy, yay!!!

I don't care who it is, family friends --- just go outside. The internet brain rot has gotten to you. Idk what traumatising event in your life happened for you to react to fictional characters this way, but please seek help.

Dorian all the way and for one simple reason. Mae is a women so by all rights she revoked her chances. In Cassandras words. " the southern divine always female, black divine always male and none of this but Mae was born male, she made a choice and is by all right female. Fullstop.

[@Adotworm]

Not sure if the same rules apply for the archon, but the black divine is not the archon. They are different people
