You get it. I agree with all of your complaints (but another unpopular opinion, I didn’t mind Sera we got lol)
Inquisition is actually my least favourite in the series, and I hate the pivot to hyperfocus on the “super special elves” and getting the most out of the story ONLY if you play a specific type of elf. I’m also not absolutely gaga for Varric (I like him, I just don’t think he should be everywhere). I felt really fatigued by the end of the game tbh.
Saskatchewan?
