Non spoiler tips: Explore the entire map and talk to everyone as you missed quests, loot and lore. Some areas you won't be able to come back to. Sell to any merchant you can find and sell a lot and always check them for a backpack. Only a few have a backpack and they may show up one time and not again. Hold Tab or whatever is equivalent on controller to highlight loot and books. If companions are not following check that the hold position button is not on. When you level up check along the spell or ability to the end, some you will want to work towards sooner. Check companions weapons, armor and tactics and give them some healing potions in their quick bar.
I really love the storytelling element of having the two other recruits die in two different ways, to show the player just how serious being a Grey Warden is in this world.
Yea and honestly as a player it sticks with you in later games when you run into them or have the ability to make someone with their background, etc. They're the real shit.
The reason they are not following you is that you put them on hold, small hand icon below last char. portrait. Morrigan voice actress was in ME, Liara's half Krogan "dad" bartender and also voice for one of Quarrian generals that wanted to dissect Legion. Claudia Black, she was in one of Riddick movies with Vin Diesel in early 2000s and in best space opera tv show of all time-Farscape. And Morrigan's mom, Flemeth is Captain/Admiral Janeway from Star Trek Voyager, Kate Mulgrew.
@@CheepchipsableIt was the first series, Stargate SG-1. She had a recurring role as a character that showed up a couple of times, until she became one of the five main characters in the last couple of seasons.
I'm enjoying this so much that the episodes feel so short! I loved when you realized Alistair was still throwing punches! 😂 I'm sure you will get the hang of all mechanics soon though ❤ Hope you solve the issue with the party not following you soon! Thanks again for the laughs, basic and Taylor! See you on Monday!
A tip. You can drag the hot bar and make it longer and can drag any usable items ie: potions, injury kits, bombs, lyrium potions etc and put them on the hot bar. You can also set it up in the tactics to have companions to auto take potions self>health>less than 25% use item> least powerful health potion. Just have to make sure that you keep stocked up. I’ve had up to like 99 of each.
Thats not a croptop - thats a leather chestplate with metal top :D Since you havent figured out why nobody follows you - there are two symbols under your characters. One is "one/all characters" the other is "follow/stay put". Currently your choice is Stay Put so they arent moving. You can also toggle it with H if I remember.
Man, this episode was going through it! I forgot how bleak the beginning of this game was, through my rose colored glasses of Morrigan's outfit, dogs, and Alistair's quips. Also just glad to see elf Basique becoming the snipergirl we always knew she could be.
Good way to remember how hellish the world of Dragon age can (and should, screw everything past 2, even 2 was an inferior product) be is to remember that The Fade is effectively The Warp from Warhammer.
I hate BioWare for never making a remastered version. They seem not to care about all their older titles besides Mass Effect, which is a shame because there’s so many good ones, I’d love to see a new Jade Empire.
@ That would be great, and the one they had on the switch STILL has the Bastilla bug. So not only are the uninterested in remasters, they’re also uninterested in FIXING them. I guess that’s what modders are for, but it still just leads me to believe they dgaf.
It would be difficult. No way they could do it on the Frostbite engine, which they seem to be in love with for whatever reason. It's designed for that engine in particular, and I can't see anything else working without sacrificing all the RPG elements.
They have stated that there is practically no one left at Bioware that knows the old frostbite engine fro DAO and that it is next to impossible to remaster the game because of this, but they haven't ruled it out 100% yet.
TBH, I don't think they really cared about the Mass Effect trilogy either. I think they just did a rush job, bare minimum remaster of the ME Trilogy to pull in some money to help keep themselves afloat while working on Veilguard. It was good enough, but TBH, there was a LOT they could've done to improve the games beyond the simple facelift they gave them.
People have already mentioned squad control tips, but you shouldn't be leading the charge as a mage. Select the toughest defender on team (usually with a shield) and make him the one to take point. Mages and archers should be positioned far away in the battle while you control melee units for.. well, melee. This is pretty much were tactical view comes into play, the moment the combat starts (you can play the rest of the game in third person with WASD, I did the same). You'll have to pause in battle, select team members and use their abilities as well, micro-managing combats is the key in the end (like when you hear enemy rogues growling, you shouldn't stand and wait for them to attack). Also, you should explore the areas more, a lot of side-quests and goodies are spread around. You need to talk with people more, go through all dialogue options. Origins is all about talking, and skipping dialogue kinda defeats the point of this RPG. I would also recommend not relying on Quicksaves only. They are good for exploration, but you should make normal saves at regular intervals (new slots every time) because you can seriously run into issue where bad item management (overusing health items esp.) can lead to harder gameplay in the future battles, making fights painful.
Oh Morrigan, my video game girl crush! You are going to LOVE having her in your party, mainly for the banter between her and Alistair. And yes.....swooping is BAD!
love the comparison to Minthara- Morrigan is the OG 'morally dubious hot goth strong woman Bioware companion' (though I guess Viconia in BG2 is the actual OG of that archetype in the Bioware catalogue)
Drain Life and a Dream is basiques next album name! Omg Alistar is iconic af!! I repeat his quotes daily lmaoo 😂 loving this series cannot wait for more!!! ❤❤
Well done on another episode I'm loving the series. I've noticed that this episode is missing from the dragon age playlist. I had to find this separately. Didn't wanna miss this section of the game.
I love Morrigan's voice so much. I also have a thing for sarcastic mean goth girls. I'm sure you'll get the hang of combat soon. Sorry my fellow commenters are less forgiving.
Mage need only two parameters at level up - Magic and Willpower. Everything else - you just throwing points away. It's not BG3 - so most classes needs only two parameters except rogues. Also for a mage - when picking skills - two levels of Combat Mastery is very important despite looking like it's for warriors only. Also, you can drag potions from inventory to the bottom of the screen where abilities are - to make new shortcut for faster access.
I was a big fan of Daveth..a street urchin, little rough around the edges , but a good heart…he’s the one at the Joining who makes the speech to stand up, no matter the cost. So of course he’s the one to die first . Oh..as someone now the rough same age as Duncan, we both say thank you for defending our speed in our old age lol They released a few novels, including how Duncan became a Grey Warden, if your interested:) Also one Loghains early years…
@ It’s called “The Calling”,written by David Gaider who write for the games:) And ooh Mass Effect Audio play, ll try that out, lve got a couple of the books..after lve watched your ME play throughs of course 🙀
"T.

50:15 Bioware was able to hire a badass voice actress here: Kate "Captain Janeway" Mulgrew is Flemeth in any part of DA franchise for later indulgence: Kate talks about Flemeth which is *SPOILERY* watch at your own risk but she was really best choice for the role: th-cam.com/video/DphUppWNma8/w-d-xo.html
Ohh fun fact, there is a infinite XP glitch in the forest only get the three vowels of dark spawn blood then go back to Duncan and just spam do the option and you get like 500 XP every time do not get the contracts until you are done with the XP glitch you know in case you wanted to make an overpowered character on your own personal time
There's another infinite XP glitch in Lothering that also gives you money. There's a side quest where a girl in Lothering asks you for traps and she pays you in both money and XP. There's also a merchant in Lothering who sells you the components to make traps for less money than the girl pays you for turning them into her, and you can give them to her indefinitely. So you can use the money she pays you to make the traps to buy the components to make them, sell the traps back to her, and do this indefinitely until you're satisfied.
Bows re a game changer , good idea to have all party members with bow, if their mana, stam run out they can change to bow and keep killin, just saying.
Halfway through your ME2, but I happily skip that for today to watch this masterpiece. You are so f*ing awesome (excuse my language) ❤👊 Also, that ✋icon beneath the photos means the party hold their ground. That is why your boys were slacking. But perfect for tactical play 😁 If you then change their behavior in the tactics, they should move about the battlefield on their own.
Basic, we much prefer to laugh with you not at you. Although making Alastair punch his way through the first darkspawn was a hella funny. Once you really get the hang of things you'll be kicking the darkspawn in the moth. Making use of the move freely/hold position toggle can be very handy to bring the enemy into your killzone, so just because it wasn't quite working for you in this episode don't give up on its tactical usefulness.
Since she's awkwardly a Kaidan-girl it's obvious she'll gonna simp for Alistair xD But quite entertaining nontheless. I remember the times when I was a teen... I played Dragonage only during the night and with headphones because I didn't want to let my parents know what kinky stuff's going on in that games... in some.. spicy.. scenes xD
Because it's believable and not silly real world political nonsense. Trying to pretend the world of Dragon Age is akin to our world of 2024 is insulting to everyone's intelligence.
@@MilkieMouse Oh you mean of good, well-written storytelling that neither tip-toed nor shoehorned sensitive topics, and instead handled them in a believable way that made sense for the setting and made it a richer experience? Yes, no wonder most fans miss games like this. Back when real writters actually cared about the setting first and foremost. And less about just using the franchise as their own personal therapy sessions. I guess Veilguard is more up your alley then. A dull, sanitized story where everyone is kind and nice and deathly afraid of saying anything remotely cotroversial, and instead everyone just agrees with everyone because agreeing is nice and we don't want to make anyone feel "uncomfortable" or hurt their fewins in this dark fantasy setting. "Cool story bro" lol. The typical response of someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.
Duncan did what was necessary. If Jory left, I doubt he could keep his mouth shut and he drew his sword first. Can you imagine what might be said if word got out? ‘They’re just glorified ghouls’, ‘they’re probably under control of the darkspawn, just waiting for the right time’, ‘it’s a shadowy cult, worming its way into control of all Thedas’ kingdoms’, ‘the rite of conscription is abhorrent! (Comparing it to the creation of (insert (spoilers for Orzammar) if they’re aware)’, ‘there’s no need for the Grey Wardans’. If this happens, the rite of conscription may be revoked by the king/nobles, recruitment numbers plummet, the organisation eventually dies out and Thedas is consumed by the Darkspawn. Besides, Jory cared only about glory, not duty. He was nothing more than an arrogant coward.
@@Lord_Numpty Joreth actually competed for the right to become a warden and had a lot to lose, the other dude was a petty thief and your for your guy it's the lesser of two evils. Reminds me of the SS, they started only taking the elite then by the end of the war they were recruiting anybody. I always thought Duncan was a scumbag.
@Lord_Numpty Duncan is a murderer. He's also a moron. He's supposed to recruit suitable candidates. Why did he choose Jory? That's dumb. Jory was protecting himself from.a lying rapist murder who used gaslighting as a recruitment technique.

And nobody told her that she order squad to dont move without order so entire episode she had to command them to move xD
Non spoiler tips:
Explore the entire map and talk to everyone as you missed quests, loot and lore. Some areas you won't be able to come back to.
Sell to any merchant you can find and sell a lot and always check them for a backpack. Only a few have a backpack and they may show up one time and not again.
Hold Tab or whatever is equivalent on controller to highlight loot and books.
If companions are not following check that the hold position button is not on.
When you level up check along the spell or ability to the end, some you will want to work towards sooner.
Check companions weapons, armor and tactics and give them some healing potions in their quick bar.
yea she missed a bit in this one, but that's not too big of a problem compared to other areas
I really love the storytelling element of having the two other recruits die in two different ways, to show the player just how serious being a Grey Warden is in this world.
Yea and honestly as a player it sticks with you in later games when you run into them or have the ability to make someone with their background, etc. They're the real shit.
...or how psycho Duncan was...
@@Cheepchipsable Before join the greywarden, Duncan was a criminal
@@hadoken95 I played Inquisition first, so I had a very different introduction to the Grey Wardens!
@@Cheepchipsable I don't see it that way. Duncan took no pleasure in killing Jory, but it was an unfortunate consequence to Jory wanting to run away.
You put them to hold position lol, you can press H key to change it to follow lol
The reason they are not following you is that you put them on hold, small hand icon below last char. portrait.
Morrigan voice actress was in ME, Liara's half Krogan "dad" bartender and also voice for one of Quarrian generals that wanted to dissect Legion. Claudia Black, she was in one of Riddick movies with Vin Diesel in early 2000s and in best space opera tv show of all time-Farscape. And Morrigan's mom, Flemeth is Captain/Admiral Janeway from Star Trek Voyager, Kate Mulgrew.
Morrigan's mom being Captain Janeway makes her that much cooler in my eyes :)
Also did a turn in the last series, (or 2?), of Stargate.
@@CheepchipsableIt was the first series, Stargate SG-1. She had a recurring role as a character that showed up a couple of times, until she became one of the five main characters in the last couple of seasons.
"pardon my terrible manners"
"pardon my racism"
lmao
Alistair fist-fighting the dark spawn was hilarious 😁I guess he really meant it when he said he was not going to make the task easier for the recruits
I'm enjoying this so much that the episodes feel so short!
I loved when you realized Alistair was still throwing punches! 😂 I'm sure you will get the hang of all mechanics soon though ❤ Hope you solve the issue with the party not following you soon!
Thanks again for the laughs, basic and Taylor! See you on Monday!
Same! I need more episodes a week 😂
A tip. You can drag the hot bar and make it longer and can drag any usable items ie: potions, injury kits, bombs, lyrium potions etc and put them on the hot bar.
You can also set it up in the tactics to have companions to auto take potions self>health>less than 25% use item> least powerful health potion. Just have to make sure that you keep stocked up. I’ve had up to like 99 of each.
Thats not a croptop - thats a leather chestplate with metal top :D
Since you havent figured out why nobody follows you - there are two symbols under your characters. One is "one/all characters" the other is "follow/stay put". Currently your choice is Stay Put so they arent moving. You can also toggle it with H if I remember.
See that little hand under the squad portraits on the right? When it's active your squad is at halt/hold position.
Swooping. Is. Bad. 😂
He's adorable ❤
Your commentary is hilarious. I think i may have gained an ab from laughing so much so ty! 😊
Man, this episode was going through it! I forgot how bleak the beginning of this game was, through my rose colored glasses of Morrigan's outfit, dogs, and Alistair's quips. Also just glad to see elf Basique becoming the snipergirl we always knew she could be.
Amazing what Basique can accomplish when she stays away from the front lines of combat 😂
Good way to remember how hellish the world of Dragon age can (and should, screw everything past 2, even 2 was an inferior product) be is to remember that The Fade is effectively The Warp from Warhammer.
When Duncan kills Ser Jory its such a massive moment for how the rest of the game is going to feel
You can use tactics on your companions then they will act independently on situations from taunting healing and attacking
I hate BioWare for never making a remastered version. They seem not to care about all their older titles besides Mass Effect, which is a shame because there’s so many good ones, I’d love to see a new Jade Empire.

Ohh fun fact, there is a infinite XP glitch in the forest only get the three vowels of dark spawn blood then go back to Duncan and just spam do the option and you get like 500 XP every time do not get the contracts until you are done with the XP glitch you know in case you wanted to make an overpowered character on your own personal time
That would defeat the purpose of having Alastair go weapons free though.
@ true I just like to use glitches in video games I already beat origins like three times with no glitches so I might as well. Enjoy the glitches now.
There's another infinite XP glitch in Lothering that also gives you money. There's a side quest where a girl in Lothering asks you for traps and she pays you in both money and XP. There's also a merchant in Lothering who sells you the components to make traps for less money than the girl pays you for turning them into her, and you can give them to her indefinitely. So you can use the money she pays you to make the traps to buy the components to make them, sell the traps back to her, and do this indefinitely until you're satisfied.
Im not sure if this game came out before or after the word "taint" meant what it does now.
Bows re a game changer , good idea to have all party members with bow, if their mana, stam run out they can change to bow and keep killin, just saying.
Halfway through your ME2, but I happily skip that for today to watch this masterpiece. You are so f*ing awesome (excuse my language) ❤👊
Also, that ✋icon beneath the photos means the party hold their ground. That is why your boys were slacking. But perfect for tactical play 😁
If you then change their behavior in the tactics, they should move about the battlefield on their own.
Basic, we much prefer to laugh with you not at you. Although making Alastair punch his way through the first darkspawn was a hella funny. Once you really get the hang of things you'll be kicking the darkspawn in the moth. Making use of the move freely/hold position toggle can be very handy to bring the enemy into your killzone, so just because it wasn't quite working for you in this episode don't give up on its tactical usefulness.
What mods are you trying to use? I've been thinking it's time to replay this but the font is a big issue for me
Impractical armor she said. While roman empire had almost the same armor.
I think you're going to enjoy Morrigan :)
Since she's awkwardly a Kaidan-girl it's obvious she'll gonna simp for Alistair xD
But quite entertaining nontheless. I remember the times when I was a teen... I played Dragonage only during the night and with headphones because I didn't want to let my parents know what kinky stuff's going on in that games... in some.. spicy.. scenes xD
Honestly thats more of a different templar territory - I am actually curious what she will do in Origins :D
@@FuFightersStudio What she's gonna do? Being cute xD
As long as you talk your character responses with the British accent that is what matters
Basic will we ever get Durge bg3 playthrough on TH-cam? Love your videos!
Basic is that you folding when Morrigan showed up? Don't worry i did to.
You can tell them to .ove freely then they will attack on their own
Still hilarious 😂
Turn off party standby then they will follow and fight
No final fantasy 16 this week?
🫦 oh YES master our taint nngh
But could they stop calling it "the taint" maybe?
SUBMIT TO THE TAINT
🥰🥰🥰🌹🌹🌹
I can't believe there are Dragon Age fans that miss the good ol' days of casual elf racism.
Because it's believable and not silly real world political nonsense. Trying to pretend the world of Dragon Age is akin to our world of 2024 is insulting to everyone's intelligence.
@@volourn9764 Cool story bro.
@@MilkieMouse Oh you mean of good, well-written storytelling that neither tip-toed nor shoehorned sensitive topics, and instead handled them in a believable way that made sense for the setting and made it a richer experience?
Yes, no wonder most fans miss games like this. Back when real writters actually cared about the setting first and foremost. And less about just using the franchise as their own personal therapy sessions.
I guess Veilguard is more up your alley then. A dull, sanitized story where everyone is kind and nice and deathly afraid of saying anything remotely cotroversial, and instead everyone just agrees with everyone because agreeing is nice and we don't want to make anyone feel "uncomfortable" or hurt their fewins in this dark fantasy setting.
"Cool story bro" lol.
The typical response of someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.
@@jackjacques7495 I'm happy for you, or sorry that happened.
It's great for role playing! Glad Baldur's Gate has racism depending on the race too
Duncan is a murderer
Duncan did what was necessary. If Jory left, I doubt he could keep his mouth shut and he drew his sword first.
Can you imagine what might be said if word got out? ‘They’re just glorified ghouls’, ‘they’re probably under control of the darkspawn, just waiting for the right time’, ‘it’s a shadowy cult, worming its way into control of all Thedas’ kingdoms’, ‘the rite of conscription is abhorrent! (Comparing it to the creation of (insert (spoilers for Orzammar) if they’re aware)’, ‘there’s no need for the Grey Wardans’.
If this happens, the rite of conscription may be revoked by the king/nobles, recruitment numbers plummet, the organisation eventually dies out and Thedas is consumed by the Darkspawn.
Besides, Jory cared only about glory, not duty. He was nothing more than an arrogant coward.
@@Lord_Numpty Joreth actually competed for the right to become a warden and had a lot to lose, the other dude was a petty thief and your for your guy it's the lesser of two evils.
Reminds me of the SS, they started only taking the elite then by the end of the war they were recruiting anybody.
I always thought Duncan was a scumbag.
@ I bet he was also lying about having a wife with child. What the hell did Duncan see in him?!
@Lord_Numpty Duncan is a murderer. He's also a moron. He's supposed to recruit suitable candidates. Why did he choose Jory? That's dumb. Jory was protecting himself from.a lying rapist murder who used gaslighting as a recruitment technique.
I'm sick of this anti dog lover Allistair propaganda, I will not stand for it🥲
