Ahaha, I'm laughing so hard at how everyone takes their turn to tell Sten they're definitely not following him. They even politely turn their head to listen to the next person who speaks.
Way I hear, dev-team weren't quite satifisfied with desing choices they had to make thanks to limitations of the graphics engine(non-humans looking too human for their tastes). They especially wanted the Qunari have horns which is still seen with Ogres, but the trade off had been Sten couldn't have worn helmets.
I had no idea you could be beaten and have a conversation after. Thanks for this video, now I know a little more) I once tried to lose the fight with Stan, but when I did, I simply died =\
THtive 55 That's my point. Sten makes the distinction of the Warden if she's a woman. Bull makes that comment of Cassandra when she hits him with the stick. Neither the Warden nor Cassandra are defined by their sex but are viewed in this way regardless. Yet in Krems case, he's called aqun-athlok and is treated as a man by Bull from their first meeting. The Qunari pride themselves on calling things by their proper name. They're either short sighted, contradictory or playing a joke no one gets in that respect that's all.
xethified "neither are defined by their sex"? Everyone is defined by their sex in PART. It's not everything there is to a person, but it's obviously still part of our self-identification. If you were to ask the femWarden or Cassandra if they were women, you'd get a clear yes. Which in the Qun's mind makes them impossible to be warriors. Krem identifies himself as a man. So he is A-ok.
Gale Elm Kadan: Literally, "where the heart lies." An all-purpose word for a "person one cares about," including colleagues, friends and loved ones. Sometimes also "the center of the chest".
Iron bull: “harder! No wonder the qun doesn’t like women fighting!” I mean what they did wasn’t a retcon.... they just made the Qunari okay with being transgender (which was never mentioned prior) as a contrast to the Tevinters who were not okay with it... but whatever makes you happy 🤷♂️
@@ducky36F but what about the commander lady Qunari ( too tired to recall her name) that is trying to kill Solas in Tresspasser? If she were a transgender why wouldn't she present herself as a man?
I wish the following dialogue option was present when Sten challenges the Warden's leadership: "Yes, the Archdemon IS our goal.... but we don't know where the Dragon is at the moment and the Deep Roads are vast and labyrinthine. There's also the matter of the beast being protected by legions of Darkspawn, so an attack on it without an army behind us is out of the question and since I fought at Ostagar, I know for a fact that Loghain's army WAS NOT broken there. It sounds like you haven't experienced a complicated problem before, Sten. Welcome to the first!"
@@Lucas-iw5xo I don't think of it as ruining the meaning, since the Qunari as a whole don't necessarily abide by the same grammar standards rthat most Thedosians do. If anything, one could say that Iron Bull enriched the purpose of the word by incorporating his true feelings into the matter. Also, kadan actually means "where the heart lies" so both romance and/or friendship can play a role. Sten may not have been specific in his expressions to the Warden (unlike Iron Bull to the Inquisitor, which was thankfully more direct and easier to understand) but he still held the party leader in a level of high importance in his life. TLDR: Kadan can be used to describe someone who is espcially close to your heart, regardless of what role they play in your life.
Translations of Qunlat (the Qunari language) Sten uses, in order, for anyone who cares: Shanedan: "I'll hear you", a respectful greeting. Kedan: "Where the heart lies", an all-purpose word for a "person one cares about," including colleagues, friends and loved ones. Berasaad: The vanguard of the antaam, sent abroad to interact with the outside world, literally meaning "those who reach ahead". Parshaara: "Enough"
I noticed you have all you companions you can recuited in your party. Please can you tell me what mod you used or if you did this yourself how did you do it and would you consider uploading it to the Nexus?
+DanaDuchy how did you get seven companions working with full dialogue? I've dried it with console commands, but if they aren't my listed companions everything buggs out and they act like summoned creatures. Really wanna know. I've always found it stupid how I couldn't take my whole party with me. The only place that actually makes sense in the game is in the battle of denerim where you have several missions that must go on simultaneously.
Been trying to find the exact mods that you used for the Sten morph and the armor... may I please have the names for the mods you used? I already checked your mods list and you have nothing posted for DA:O
Anywhere. Just be a woman and have a bunch of conversations with him with "reasonable" approval. After a few camps entering, he will say that. Or in the overworld, I didn't know you could have that conversation outside.
I enjoy this very much. I have a request=) Can you make all scenes with the guardian of the Sacred ashes. Or all different comments he have for your origins and companions?=)
Blazer Hell I agree. I still like the original design more though. What made others consider his race to be "monsters" is because they are prone to go into fits of rage. They're basically born as berserker warriors.
Incorrect. We can't change the cards that life deals us. But how we play those cards is a matter of choice. Saying "I have no choice" is just a cheap rationalization to comfort ourselves with a choice we've already made.
Bullshit. The simple act of "choosing" to believe it is a choice. A stupid one, regarding the Qun, as you choose to have your choices removed because it makes it what.... easier to think? Bah, of course those horned savages need that, they are so incredibly afraid of their true savage nature that they tell all this crap to convince themselves.
3:34. Wow... I forgot Dragon Age is a bit dated. In Inquisition the Qunari actually have a word for people who are born the wrong gender, and they aren't treated any differently than others.
Yeah, Wokequisition made the retcon to spit on the lore in the favor of wokeness, thus we have Krem, a walking checklist that entire purpose in the game is to announce that she is Trans, while featuring Iron Bull's lecture. Definitely Dragon Age Origins is a treasure of a game, with well written and well done characters, bold designs, and a dark narrative. Nowadays Dragon Age is just wokeness, fairy tales, a boring Mary Sue of Protagonist (aka Inquisitior), and pushing Agendas.
I had sten try to take over and we fought and my warren won..I sent the traitor on his way.He will remain where he belongs in his cage awaiting the darkspawn in future games.
+brakie44820 if you are on the most friendly terms with Sten and he has gotten his sword back, he will not attack you. Just saying that you are loosing you sanity and that he trusts you with his life, but not his life is in danger now, but their goal.
Sten attacked me at Haven.. Said I was running from the AD.. IIRC his approval rate wasn't that high. Still I favor three tank rogues and a tank mage-Morrigan with strong magics and spirit heal.
To be fair, you were chasing after an artifact from a religion he doesn't believe in, that might not even exist, and if it does exist it might not have any magical qualities at all.
True,But,who is he to not follow orders like the rest of the party? What Sten suggested would be suicidal our small group would never survive the horde yet the dumb ass wants to hunt and attack.. He disapproves everything good you try to do like saving the mages and the Elves yet,he should know the warden is from the Denerim Alienage. Does he expect you to betray your friends and family? Even Zevran not that cold hearted and he's a Crow assassin-a murderer for hire. .
Ahaha, I'm laughing so hard at how everyone takes their turn to tell Sten they're definitely not following him. They even politely turn their head to listen to the next person who speaks.
Fr, I was so dead. He really thought by defeating him would pu this in charge but they were lol "yeaaahhhh,.......no"😆😆😆💀
It is the will of the company to wander without purpose, then.
I love Sten hahaaha
I remember playing as a female mage,
Sten just "loved" me for being both a fighter AND a "saarebas"
Yeah I'm aware, that's why I typed it like above.
Tough strictly speaking the rough translation is "dangerous thing"
1:30 Sten last time I checked, Loghain had an army.
Yeah, dunno why the warden does not bring that one up
"We simply are"
/sovereign mod ON
Holy shit 😂 when I saw that u can be beaten and they still won't follow him OMG.
I believe the mod is called the Kossith Add-On. This mod makes all the Qunari in the game look more Dragon Age 2- like.
Way I hear, dev-team weren't quite satifisfied with desing choices they had to make thanks to limitations of the graphics engine(non-humans looking too human for their tastes). They especially wanted the Qunari have horns which is still seen with Ogres, but the trade off had been Sten couldn't have worn helmets.
There is one called qnari update too.
Qunari looked so good in DA2, then they were ruined in Inquisition.
@@SeventhheavenDK you can blame EA for their "all our games must use the Frostbite Engine" rule.
Sten just started calling my warden Kadan
I had no idea you could be beaten and have a conversation after. Thanks for this video, now I know a little more)
I once tried to lose the fight with Stan, but when I did, I simply died =\
Might be an approval thing. Or cut content.
Cut content, sadly. I tried everything to trigger that dialogue in vanilla. You simply die.. and I suppose the Darkspawn Chronicles starts lol
Softie!
I God damn near spit out my coffee in the middle of work when I heard him call the Warden Kadan! WTF!
It can be used for friend or person you care about as well
Now is just a useless word, before the meaning was more than "I love you" . Iron Bull is a disgrace.
I played this game a few months ago and Sten was so funny. I'd be joking w Alistair one second and yelling at Sten the next to improve our friendship.
The "women can't be men" thing is at odds with what the Iron Bull says about Krem in Inquisition.
Not really, since he already views Krem as a man. So to him Krem is not a woman trying to be a man, he is just a man.
THtive 55 That's my point. Sten makes the distinction of the Warden if she's a woman. Bull makes that comment of Cassandra when she hits him with the stick. Neither the Warden nor Cassandra are defined by their sex but are viewed in this way regardless. Yet in Krems case, he's called aqun-athlok and is treated as a man by Bull from their first meeting.

Krem identifies himself as a man. So he is A-ok.
Retcon
THtive 55 Of course. But Sten would reply that you cannot be something you are not. That's his problem with Bas in general.
Oh my goodness, I wish you would share your mods with us D:
...did he call the Warden 'Kadan'?
Yes,yes he did.
Gale Elm That's what Iron Bull calls you if you romance him in DA:I! Sten's a big softie, Leliana was right.
Wojciech Wilkanowski
Do you know what Kadan means?
Gale Elm 'My heart' iirc
Gale Elm
Kadan: Literally, "where the heart lies." An all-purpose word for a "person one cares about," including colleagues, friends and loved ones. Sometimes also "the center of the chest".
well some women have a natural talent with weapons. like the Female human noble that beat your ass on the mountains with a two handed sword.
That sten armor looks amazing
HOW ALL COMPANIONS ?! HELP I WANT THAT AS WELL!
that last conversation was so rectoned in Inquisition.
Bioware lost their balls and now cater to SJWs, simple as that.
@@Veloziraptor111 yeah pretty much.
Iron bull: “harder! No wonder the qun doesn’t like women fighting!”
I mean what they did wasn’t a retcon.... they just made the Qunari okay with being transgender (which was never mentioned prior) as a contrast to the Tevinters who were not okay with it...
but whatever makes you happy 🤷♂️
Yeah I would say they're ok with Trans men but not with women fighting in general.
@@ducky36F but what about the commander lady Qunari ( too tired to recall her name) that is trying to kill Solas in Tresspasser? If she were a transgender why wouldn't she present herself as a man?
what mod are you using for zevs and lelianas costumes they look awesome

I just realized that he keeps calling you Kadan...
Because Kadan is friend, Iron Bull ruined the meaning.

Your Wynne has the same robes mine does. Do you know how to give the robe stats with The Winter Forge? I can't figure it out.
how did you get that softie conversation?
What is tne name of armour mod that is Sten wearing since 0:54?

I didn’t realise they made scenes for if you managed to lose to Sten. Hilarious!
how did you get the companions to look like this? A mod?
Been trying to find the exact mods that you used for the Sten morph and the armor... may I please have the names for the mods you used? I already checked your mods list and you have nothing posted for DA:O
same I am going fucking crazy trying to find these mods and Ive been at it for days
***** it was the qunari update I had trouble with
Wondering. What mod did you use to have all the party with you?
What armour mod is that? What's Sten wearing and where do I download it?
Where can the convo on 3:34 be triggered
Anywhere. Just be a woman and have a bunch of conversations with him with "reasonable" approval. After a few camps entering, he will say that. Or in the overworld, I didn't know you could have that conversation outside.
what mod is that to make sten look like that ?
Haven't played DA:O in ages but it looks amazing with these mods! Which did you use?
I love your armor, what is that?
1:46 did he just call the warden kadan?(did I spell that right?)
From what mod does Sten's armor in this video come from? :O
mmm armors of the wicher 2 mmmm i think ejjeje
Úlfhéðinn mjöksiglandi I think the armor is from Dragon age 2. I remember getting it from a DLC.
I know this is late but the inquisitor reminds me of a final fantasy character
There is no Inquisitor in this video. He didn't make appearance with his boring presence in this game.
How do you trigger the companions rejecting his command? I always just get the game over if I let him win.
Odd, Shale says nothing when the Warden is defeated in that duel with Sten?
Shale cares not for the squabbles of you inferior squishy creatures. Wait, do you hear something? Is that a pigeon flapping its wings?!
I enjoy this very much. I have a request=)
Can you make all scenes with the guardian of the Sacred ashes. Or all different comments he have for your origins and companions?=)
Already done.
Dragon Age. The Gauntlet [party comments]
you are crazy=)
Which Dragon Age game is this from? Looks like a redone version of Origins
macFuz its origins with a ton of mods
I have never seen sten look like that. how do you get him looking like that
Pretty sure it's a mod he/she downloaded online. If you're on a PC/Mac/other then you should be able to get them.
Mmmm, that scene, if sten beats the warden, how it happens? Is this from improved atmosphere or from qwyn ultimate pack?
what mod is that armor that sten wears?
Yeah I picked him up kept him in camo tell the end then let him go nuts on the darkspawn and archdemon
What armor mod is Sten wearing.
What does Shale say in this scene
Omg they couldn't do sten today 😅😅😅😅
Never got this dialog. But I always beat the crap out of him during this sequence.
Who are you favorite Sten or the Iron Bull?
Iron bull because I can actually romance him
Sten was like Batman. Stern but loveable. Iron Bull was more fun & free. Sten is the Arishok & Iron Bull is the bro...I like them both.
Sten. I found Iron Bull quite boring.
The whole women trying to be men line shows that BioWare was really more aware of the coming times than they even realized.
What mod is this?
well Qunari becomes way more inclusive in the next games of Gender Age.
what mod is this they look like some samurai shit... TELL MEE
Not samurai, just the qunari design from DA2. Look up "qunari update" and "a year with sten" for hair/beard options.
oh my god that mod
Why does he look so different?
+Blake Walker A mod of course.
Mr33500 I figured that out a while ago. I actually like the original design more.
Blazer Hell I agree. I still like the original design more though.
What made others consider his race to be "monsters" is because they are prone to go into fits of rage. They're basically born as berserker warriors.
Blazer Hell I know all of this already. I just stated why they're considered monsters is all.
I love your mods.
Wtf is wrong with Sten, what did you do to him?
Sten be speaking that hard truth in the end. We simply are we don't choose.
Conner Davis A man chooses a slave obeys, we are born as a person but our life is ours to choose
Incorrect.

Why does sten look like that…
ugly mod on nexus
I don't like sten.
I understand some people think sten have to look like a Qunari but in the lore he looks like a human so why this mod? Breaks the immersion...
Spycrab some Qunari are born with out horns and this mod is literally how sten is described having looked
I DONT like that quanari face...
ugliest mod for sten
