I thought I’d link this, since though they never mention Inquisition, it’s clearly specifically about Inquisition:

The thing with the rare sword that she can neither keep nor drop made me actually LOL, as did her reaction to finding the main quest line.
I continue to be irritated that they give you weapons that are gifts from people but that you then have to immediately turn around and sell because you just don’t have room in your inventory for shit you’re not actually using. Sometimes that shit bites you in the ass. Hell in Dragon Age 2, they do give you a storage box and I damned well did save Wesley’s shield, though I got bitched at about selling it. So I had to go back and dig it out of the chest and swap it out with Aveline’s much better shield so she wouldn’t have accused me of thoughtlessly selling it.
Then in Inquisition, you get all kinds of crap as gifts. And knowing that selling a unique item that quickly became useless got you slammed in the last game, what are you to do? And a lot of these items have back stories, and there’s nothing you can do but just sell them. Don’t give me a goddamned paragraph of setting detail about an item I can’t then put in a chest, much less hang on my wall like you can in Skyrim.
Let me go on record as saying that I love the fact that Lady Vorpal’s real last name is Vorpahl. It’s fortunate that she got into the gaming hobby. I hope she keeps her name if she marries, even if her spouse’s name is Holyavenger.
Anyone else noticed Monty Python’s reference somewhere at around 20 hrs of play? Can not remember details or location (probably Hinterlands) but it went something like that:
“Oh, you are from Inquisition. We didn’t expect you.”
“Well, nobody expects us.”
I seem to recall it happening pretty early, while I was still stumbling around getting my bearings. I’m actually surprised I didn’t expect the Spanish Inquisition joke. It was entirely obligatory.
While waiting for The Witcher 3 to come out, I got my hands on the Jaws of Hakkon DLC for Inquisition. Overall, I thought it was excellent. The upcharge of $15 to get one new region bites, but it’s a good story and fun adventure.
I played using my Inquisitor that had already beaten Corypheus, and it started out pretty tough. A run back to Skyhold to get myself equipped for cold-based resistance helped a lot, but given that some of the best schematics in the game drop in this new region, I doubt you can take it on early in the game. I did get several levels out of it, though I now have nothing to do with them. Maybe the next DLC will hit the streets right about the time I’ve finished Witcher 3:
I started to reply to this, then realized it was a few months old. Then figured what the hell :D. On the unlikely ( very, very unlikely at this point) chance you haven’t noticed, there is indeed a storage chest in the Undercroft of Skyhold. I like keeping named purples as trophies myself, since I rarely need what little they’re worth. Just have to suck it up for a bit while you are stuck in Haven.
Love this game by the way. Sure there are complaints and whines one could make about it. But at the end of the day the mechanics are just good enough, the interface adequate, the controls tolerable if clumsy. But the storyline, HUGE and varied world, beautiful graphics and top-notch voice-acting puts it wayyy over the top.
Yeah, I don’t know if the storage chest came with the Jaws of Hakkon, the Black Emporium, or was just added on in a patch, but it was there when I waded in again to take on the new DLC. It’s bizarre to me that they don’t just go ahead and give you such a thing in a game like this. Dragon Age: Origins had a chest that came with some DLC, but it was way out of your way to get back to it. Dragon Age II simply had a chest as soon as you had a home base, if I recall right. It’s like they learned that people want a convenient stash. Then Dragon Age: Inquisition, no chest. Did they unlearn the lesson?
I only got into the game last month, and haven’t downloaded any DLC yet, but the chest has always been in the Undercroft from as soon as I got Skyhold. I suppose it might have been added in a patch between release and when I started, but it’s not a DLC item.
The storage chest was added in patch 5 or 6
