Whether you spend an entire afternoon or mere minutes getting the details right trying to match your likeness or maybe handsome Squidward, creating your character in games like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Dragon Age is an important step before you even start your adventure. Streamer Breebunn showed during this extremely long stream creating her characters for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which took an astonishing 21 hours.
The streamer created an elf Inquisitor named Mellon, rocking a high ash blonde ponytail, and her elf mage Rook wears a smidge of lipstick for a pop of color. “I needed to get my Inquisitor to look how I wanted her to look,” Breebunn said on stream. “I have my priorities sorted, and they’re insane.”
She had a Dragon Age playtime clock hovering around that displayed 21 hours and 20 minutes, and she hadn’t even started playing the actual game at the time. Outside of her appearance, Breebunn also took time with her character’s backstory and added her choices from Dragon Age: Inquisition that affect Veilguard’s story, including that she disbanded the Inquisition in her playthrough.
When a commenter said they felt like they had botched their character creation and were probably going to start over, Breebunn explained that’s why she took so long with it.
“That is why I spent 20 hours in character creator creating my Rook as an Inquisitor doing the first cut scenes without subtitles or audio and just looking at her face until I was satisfied,” she said. “I did this for 20 hours. I am not f—ing around. I’m insane.”
“Could a depressed person do this?” she asked jokingly. She posted another character creation when she was dabbling with the options in Dragon Age: Inquisition back in September and playing the game for the first time.
