All the male characters in this show are 2D assholes. Seriously, think about it, non of the male characters are actually likable. The female characters on the other hand are well written, very likable and you could actually feel sympathetic towards them even though they are criminals. This show has a variety of very strong diverse female characters, yet they couldn't write any good male characters?

Was thinking about it before and it kinda bothered me. -_-
It's true, although B3nnett is the only one I kinda sorta like.

Tbh though, if you wanted to watch a show with dynamic male characters, you can just turn on the tv and you'll probably find one while channel surfing; I like that a show focuses so much on their women characters. It's nice for a change to be able to relate, like fully - especially since they're queer.
I knew you were gonna say that because it's somewhat true.

Bennett is still an asshole to me. Even if he fell in love with a female prisoner, he shouldn't act on it.

I just went in for a routine clean up and that, but a certain someone ( =_= ) got me a little paranoid about my wisdom teeth so I'm going to get them checked up thoroughly to see if I need to remove them.

^ What are the characters on this show like?

Seems weird they can write good female characters but not good male ones. I like a well-rounded cast, but if the females ones are good enough (or the male ones are side characters and therefore irrelevant) then I might watch it.
To give you a very thorough answer, i'd have to sit down and write out pretty detailed analyses of how I think the characters are like. But I don't really have a whole lot of time rn to do that. I think if you watch the first couple of episodes, you'll get a good feel for it.

One thing I do like about the characters, and this is just in general, is that they each exist independently of the main character; like they have backstories, conversations with one another, and show facets of their personalities that the main character isn't even aware of. I'm sure other shows have done this to some extent, but never like this (at least that i'm aware of).

Most of the things I like have done this. idk if this show does it in a different way, or something, but I don't think this is really that rare.

I guess you just watch more tv than I do; the shows I watch don't really do this at all. Save for the notable exceptions ofc like H0use or L@w and 0rder - but then again, I don't think they did it to the extent that it's done here so meh.

Maybe! I do watch a lot of things, and read and play a lot of video games, and I've noticed that there's a really strong theme of doing exactly that in every one of them.

I gave up on BioEA after DAII and ME3. It's looking pretty decent mind you. Origins was so good... :dramaqueen:

EA ruins everything -_-

But I have faith in Bi0ware, and don't think they're going to let EA bully them around like they did with the quickened scheduled release date of DAII. Origins was amazing...I totally thought M0rrigan was totally into women BUT NO. She had me fooled :dramaqueen: it's w/e though, I loved L3liana. Most people find her annoying though.

I enjoyed the characters of DAII (!sabella and B3thany :wub: ). BUT: Plot was rushed, dungeons were recycled shit and you didn't have a lot of places to explore; I hope the developers take note that just b/c you can walk around K!rkwall both day and night doesn't mean that it's a different location... =_=

Had. Yeah, she was with Cherry Jones for years and years and years. I think they're broken up right now, though.

I loved Leliana! She was so sweet and adorable, second favourite character forever. :dramaqueen:
Sten was my first. So upset you couldn't romance him. Alistair was the one I found super annoying, and I was ambivalent on Wynne.

But yeah, I preferred the characters of II, especially Bethany, Merrill, Isabela, Varric... Just everyone, really. I didn't particularly mind the recycled dungeons, but what confused me is that everyone was okay with it in ME but hated it in II. Like, just because it's a different layout doesn't change the fact that everything is just a huge grey corridor with blue lights, y'know. =_=
Plot was definitely rushed, but I did kinda like it. At least it had more depth than Origins, which was KILL THE BIG DRAGON.

Agree about Morrigan :dramaqueen:

I was always more of a ME fan really. I think I'm going to reinstall Origins once I've finished Bioshock Infinite and just pretend Bioware are still a thing.

I haven't :lol: heard a lot of people were disappointed with it, though. I do have ME1 and ME2, but I haven't beaten ME1 just yet: i'm at the very end of it.

LOL I really loved M0rrigan's banter with just about everyone. One of the most memorable convos for me:

Al!istair: "And this is where we're shocked to hear that you've never had a friend before."
M0rrigan: "I can be friendly when I desire to. Alas, desiring to be more intelligent does not make it so."

I started with ME2 (lame PS3 version) then eventually switched to the PC versions and played through 1&2 a few months before 3 came out. Gameplay in ME1 is pretty horrible compared to 2. I think 2 might be my favourite. The DLC was really solid. Yeah well, if you get around to playing it you'll see why so many people were disappointed :rofl:

RIP Bioware, gonna drink to their demise :dramaqueen:

Holy fuck guys. I dreamt that i was taeyeon and tiffany was with me in a concert!!! atill dpazzing right now!!! We're part of the audience however we were shown on the big screen when taeyeon (I) cuddle with tiffany, being sweet and all. Omg /crying/ I hugged tiffany in the dream. Take that bishes! lol Sones were the audience (w/c doesnt makes sense since we're also in the audience) so when it was shown, the audience were loud. When i say loud, it is loud. Then they start chanting taeny. Lol. i remember being embarassed after, i hid my face on tifanys neck. Holy crap lol hahaha. Also, taeyeon always runs her hand on tiffany's arm right? I was also doing that. O my god. Hahaha

Part 2 of my dream is we're at a fansign event. The fans were all allowed to hug us ( my friends were there lol) i wm still taeyeon and tiffany was beside me. Nothing much happens, just the normal taeny moments on a fansign.

I just woke up so i am still spazzing. I already am loving this day! What a dream come true! :dramaqueen:
