Ohhhhh what a lovely format this is!! It keeps me watching without losing focus. Tysm!

[@Makilita]

Glad you like them! 😊

[@Antifrost]

You went above and beyond in presenting these dialogs, well done indeed.

[@DonnyxCage]

The honor of the Qunari is what landed The Iron Bull’s head as a trophy in the halls of the inquisitor lol.

[@000mjd]

So funny about the Spine part since in the comics he defeated Sten in a duel and makes an alliance with the qunari

[@MrRawrCEO]

I read about that...I don't really buy it.
Alistair was primarily trained for killing mages and darkspawn, Sten was primarily trained to fight enemy soldiers and is a more experienced warrior than Alistair. While I don't expect Alistair to be a pushover, Sten should win that fight reasonably well.
Come to think of it there were quite a few things in that comic that didn't make sense...

[@7Kibz]

@@MrRawrCEO training aside Alistair is pretty much a genius in fighting since the dude learned how to use templar abilities without lyrium which should be impossible unless your a seeker

[@ElectromagNick]

@@7Kibz Earlier lore weirdness. The lyrium requirement for templar abilities was a post-Origins plot point. In Origins, it just boosted their efficacy.

[@wyveriusblackfire3834]

@@MrRawrCEO You mean like Sten calling him Kadan out of nowhere?
David Gaider more or less openly admitted to doing whatever he wants back when people asked him about Leliana coming back from the dead.

[@tylertheguy3160]

​@@MrRawrCEOI could easily buy that Alistair is just a naturally talented combatant and that made up for the gap in experience.

[@DrownedInExile]

2:34 I wish we'd seen Alistair's hidden badass side here.
"Sten... when I draw my sword, I don't sheathe until someone is dead. Are you saying you wish to die right now? No? Smart."

[@macrons593]

That would be incredibly out of character for someone like Alistair

[@valder8423]

cringe

[@DrownedInExile]

@@macrons593 Not if Alistair was hardened at that point. And Sten is a poser, better at killing younglings than darkspawn. I'd pick Alistair or Oghren over him any day.

[@macrons593]

@@DrownedInExile Hardened means more resilient, not a complete 180 in his character

[@DrownedInExile]

@@macrons593 I suppose so. The game glosses over this, but by the time you reach Lothering, Alistair and company would have been through a lot of killing, plus loss and betrayal. That changes people. If the game took that route, Alistair's funnier moments should be more forced. Like he's trying to be someone that no longer exists.

[@Evantrop]

So you do have a spine pity you don't use it

[@ImmortalMuffin1947]

What a masterpiece

[@John_962]

Alistair is my absolute favorite XD

[@mrpatatas18]

How do you unlock this cutscenes?

[@mergingreaction]

The banter is randomly triggered after every few minutes in-game. This youtube channel took the audio from the files and animated it themselves.

[@mrpatatas18]

@@mergingreaction thank you mate! T'is my first time playing DAO and seeing this banters are really awesome. I thought this videos are unlockable when you finish the game or something. Hehe

[@mergingreaction]

@@mrpatatas18 If you want, you could find a mod in Nexus to have banter trigger more often.

[@mrpatatas18]

@@mergingreaction thanks for the tip. TBH i'm not familiar with MODS. I do see them but dont know how to do. Do i download it and install it? I got my DAO in steam
