Thank you Dragon Age for being a refuge when depression was kicking my ass during and post college, and I wasn't sure whether I could do this art thing as a career. Haven't done much proper art in the past few years, aside from sketches and Warden outfit exploration, but I carry DA with me forever.

I haven't done a lot of Dragon Age Fanart in the last three years, but here are some of my all time favs that I painted. I even got to work with BioWare in official capacity and I will forever treasure this. ♥️ Dragon Age literally changed my life. It breaks my heart to see the studio closing.

Dragon Age truly changed my life, I met so many cool people through the fandom and also evolved as an artist and I even had the pleasure to work with Bioware, truly a dream come true. The Bioware team past and present inspired me and many more and it will continue to do so.

Some Lula supporters apparently shouted his name out their window when it was announced he won and a cop pointed his gun at him and they took what is possibly the greatest image of a cop ever taken, like genuinely this would go hard as a cover for a Rage album its so poetic.

guys i hate discord but this is super not them making your dms public or whatever. all this does is make 1000+ member public servers searchable. so, you know, all those games you play where you have to join to get information? you may not need to join now

And if you're looking for a clear example of how EA leadership seemingly cannot fail, here's a perfect anecdote:

NEW: I spoke with current and former EA employees to understand how the latest layoff round played out and the realities of daily life at the U.S. publisher. The short version? EA is controlled by an executive class that "cannot fail, only be failed." Workers, then, will always pay the price.

"I don't want to work at this place anymore:" EA workers decry mismanagement and corporate greed after mass layoffs Current and former EA employees paint a bleak picture of daily life at one of the video game industry's most prominent publishers

A quick note for the people reading my EA story and thinking 'well, if it's so bad, why don't they leave?' Simply, there is nowhere to go. There is dearth of jobs right now across the game industry—just relentless cuts across the board—and people cannot just uproot their lives on a whim.

bioware dialogue has always been excessive cheese occasionally interrupted by some of the most raw shit you've ever heard

Hammer, The Taken King reposted

"the dialogue in dragon age the veilguard is so bad! bioware dialogue didn't used to be this cheesy!" it did actually, but you were 12 and you hadn't yet been radicalised into a hateful dipshit

Los anarcocapitalistas pobres creen sinceramente en las ideas del anarcocapitalismo, los ricos, creen en ellas como el que hace trampas en el Monopoly, y creen ”sinceramente“ que se juega dándole un billete de 50 cada vez que tiran el dado.

Hombre se rompe a llorar en la TV argentina, mientras muestra los anillos de boda de su matrimonio que debe vender para poder alimentar a su familia… Se declara libertario, dice que votó a Milei (pero ya no más), y apoyó la "Ley de Alquileres", misma que ahora le hace imposible pagar el alquiler:

¿Ese sniper al que solo le alcanzan las acciones para disparar una vez al turno? Ahora dispara dos veces. ¿El médico que no llega a curar? Acción extra para movimiento. ¿Esa unidad meleé no llega? Acción extra, ahora sí llega. Es ridículo.

I've been working on some artist proof paintings for MagicCon Atlanta - This one is on a "Hall of Echoes" AP. I love exploring the same colour palettes as the card art.
