What do we have here? Almost as if I want to highlight the existential crisis I believe Shepard is internally battling with during ME2 and ME3.

Jane Shepard is *back*, and what an adventure awaits her in Mass Effect 2 as she charts a course through the Terminus. Mods appear to be in order, and textures properly applied. Let's go! 😃

The mod list is locked in, the batch install complete, the textures applying…
Jane Shepard’s return in a *heavily* modded Mass Effect 2 is imminent. 😀
My friends, it’s going to go in some wild directions before we’re through with 2 and 3. Tali’Zorah, here we come!

Louise is uncertain and cautious, but is comfortable with those mages she deems sufficiently disciplined. This attitude softens to a degree, but her fear of magic rises as she witnesses its immense danger😬
Esha finds magic unknowable as a dwarf, but that only adds to the thrill when she sees it.😀

After Mass Effect 2 with my current Shepard, and before 3, I’m definitely playing Avowed.
Fascinating setting I know almost *nothing* about. (Off I go to read up on prior games in the setting)
And again, The Outer Worlds 2 was fantastic and I’ll play it multiple times next year. 😊

Backlog games I want to play next year. (With my current Mass Effect playthrough in-between them.)
(I technically have played a portion, and enjoyed, of Rogue Trader, but it’s time to give it attention for a proper full campaign.)

Professor Alice signing out, mission-accomplished.*
*Pay no mind to any collateral damage along the way or in years to come. 😂
But seriously, bravo Obsidian. I had a rollicking good time.

And so when you *do* actually encounter her, the player feels akin to an in-universe character doing the same.
A great example of a game with a coherent design that adds to its theming.

I won’t venture into details, and I’ll have “effort posts” next month about the game and its characters/factions, but I just wanted to briefly note:
Auntie Cleo is such an immensely fascinating character for an RPG. Her omnipresence in the game imparts on the player so much.

Inquisitor Louise Adaar is a faithful Andrastian, albeit of a decidedly unorthodox bent.
Andrastianism gave her purpose and identity in a childhood in which she otherwise felt so lost: Tal-Vashoth parents she could never fully understand or relate to, and local communities who feared her.

Professor Alice and her crew are locked and loaded, and this time, she's going to be the Reviewer #3 for anyone in their way.

The Winter Palace at Halamshiral is even more impressive when examined with a flycam, poking and prodding with never intended perspectives.
Why?
You gain a greater appreciation for the craft responsible for designing and implementing the *illusion* of a palace complex. Interesting! 😊

Good morning to all my dear friends! 😊
I sincerely hope you have a wonderful day.
As for me, I plan to venture farther in TOW2 with a cast of companions that has absolutely won me over. Talk to them *between* missions, talk *during*, and immerse yourself in their questlines. It’s worth it.

Sigrid Tabris- Leliana, Alistair, and Morrigan!
Marian Hawke- Merrill, Aveline, and Isabela/Varric!
Louise Adaar- Varric, Cassandra, and Vivienne.
Esha Laidir- Harding and Emmrich. To balance with the rest, I’d add Neve.

It’s my clear preference at this point, and provides a demonstration of how my Sigrid Tabris has assumed the mantle of Grey Warden and grown past Alistair in the process.
A touch of melancholy as a friendship ends.
And, it allows for a delightful thematic presence in DAI.
