A bit more progress in DA:I today... sorta? The pacing of the game seems odd, at least with how much the travelling and sidequests take along side the main quest. I did meet Vivienne, Sera, and Blackwall at least.

Perhaps its just more of the western open world style, but the lack of music and the dialogue between companions being relatively... sparse? Is probably contributing to why I feel the pacing is slow. I'd like at least a tad more noise or music or something in the downtime
