I think it's fine to feel a little bit jealous about the Lucanis+Neve hookup. It doesn't make anyone a bad person and it's normal, especially given the strange circumstances around it. I feel it need the preface what I am about to say next with this: There is nothing wrong with a bit of jealousy. What is absolutely insane is the amount of vitriol online towards Neve for this. A lot of people found themselves in a situation where they wanted to romance Lucanis, but they saved Minrathous, either because they picked Shadow Dragons as their faction or they were convinced that it was the better choice to make. This locked them out of Lucanis romance, which was disappointing for them, but it didn't affect Lucanis and Neve getting together in the background. Some of those people absolutely freaked out. Absolutely lost their minds. They are out there, shittalking Neve, some of them even leaving comments under the instagram posts of her VA angry about this. They insist that Neve is a terrible person because she is understandably upset if Minrathous gets "blighted" (though "overtaken" is probably more accurate) or, in some cases, they just get very racist, misogynist or ableist towards the character. It's actually crazy just how angry this background romance made some people who I'd characterize as being unwell. Again, I want to say, Meg is not guilty of this at all. I just want to say that, in words of a clickbait RUclipsr, "the Neve-situation is crazy."
YUP. Totally agree! Sadly it seems like it truly boils down to racism and misogyny, with a sprinkle of ableism on the side, as you said :( I actually found myself more jealous of Lucanis than Neve eventually LOL I think I'm romancing her on my second playthrough. She is such an amazing character. The folks you described are missing out.
I was disappointed at first with what Solas said about a romanced Lavellan, until his second line. The "god" of REBELLION cherishes his time with Lavellan more then his victories! 😪❤
It made sense to me why Solas was so vague about Lavellan. She is his weakness so she's safe as long as no one knows she's dear to him. Ultimately he does not know Rook that well, what if they use Lavellan against him? What if Rook gets captured by Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain or their allies and spills the tea about her? It would basically put a target on her back.
1:54:40 I AM MEG, MEG IS ME😭thank you for the validation!! Do i love lucanis and neve individually? the most even. Do i find them as cute as couple? yes actually. Do i get jealous when i see clips of these despite romancing lucanis?! YES. but im also jealous of lucanis, you get me?! 😭 it feels petty but its me On the bright side, Meg!! You got to see that first so youll feel better if you really do romance either of them in another playthrough. Personally i find both their romances so tender & sweet
If it is any consolation, it won't last. It takes all of Rook's effort and hard work to make Neve let herself have feelings for them. Her going for Lucanis that quickly implies that it's not a deeper connection for her. The same goes to a lesser extent for Lucanis, he acts very differently with her than with romanced Rook.
@@SunniestAutumn Well said 👏 on that note, they both deserve better (me lol). But seriously, I do agree the dynamic with them seems so different from their separate relationship with Rook. My interpretation for them is that they either wont last or it would take SOOO much willpower to make it long term as they are both by canon the type to pull away for the sake of the other. In my opinion, it seems more healing for them being with someone so forward and direct as rook in the relationship. Tho despite all that, I cant help getting jealous lol. But on the subject of your separate comment, I am so disgusted by those who hate on Neve even as a character (even worse to those who attack her VA) for being with Lucanis. Homegirl has such a kind heart and literally has not done anything wrong (she would even still come to love you even if you didnt pick her city. no shade to lucanis. But thats just how Neve is under all her cynicism). I love Lucanis but Id fight anyone who badmouths Neve Gallus 😮💨
I've been so excited for you to get to this quest line! 💕 It's such a unique insight into Solas and Elgar'nan, and what their dynamic must have been like back in the day.
I love your videos! It's really interesting to see what others think about the companion romances. I personally loved Neve and Lucanis together, i thought it was really sweet, but it's fin to see other perspectives ❤️
This is the funniest PT I’ve seen of DAV lol Emmrich and Knee pads was not a topic I was expecting 😂 I also had the same reaction with Neve and Lucansis lol
1:14:10 No, you're right the first time he wasn't talking about the murder. He's talking about Mythal enjoying the power and ruling over the people in the protector role.
Someone please correct me if I'm misremembering, but I'm surprised that Solas referred to elves as his people when in the previous game I believe he doesn't like it when the Inquisitor assumes that elves are his people and he responds that sharing pointed ears with the elves doesn't make them his people.
It's a dragon age game. That alone puts it in a whole other league of every other game ever made! Veilguard is GOTY easily, it's not even a competition.

The way Meg probably wants burn Lucanis’s coffee after he started romancing Neve is sending me 😭

1:55:01 lmaooooooo I'm dying at how perfectly this matched up! 😂😂😂
😭😭😭😂😂
That was hilarious! 🤣
I love your videos! It's really interesting to see what others think about the companion romances. I personally loved Neve and Lucanis together, i thought it was really sweet, but it's fin to see other perspectives ❤️
lmao what's funnier is that the Venatori that comment on Rook? That's Lucanis VA :D
This is the funniest PT I’ve seen of DAV lol
Emmrich and Knee pads was not a topic I was expecting 😂
I also had the same reaction with Neve and Lucansis lol
I was waiting for this ever since the Fire and Ice quest ahaha, as a fellow elgar'nan simp, I KNEW you'd enjoy this one sdfghjk
Just romance Lucanis as you wanted from the beginning 😂
1:14:10 No, you're right the first time he wasn't talking about the murder. He's talking about Mythal enjoying the power and ruling over the people in the protector role.

Veilguard is better than Astrobot. Fight me
It's a dragon age game. That alone puts it in a whole other league of every other game ever made! Veilguard is GOTY easily, it's not even a competition.
