Mostly it's just Bioware fans, since Bioware really popularized all kinds of awesome RPG things [like Romances... looking at you BG2] and old choices carrying over into future games [thanks Mass Effect] and people now expect it from ALL their offerings.



We are collectively spoiled, basically.

[Posioned]

You could say the same who love the fighting? Not but really why do you care what other people like? It doesn't affect you and whining about people whining doesn't get you anywhere.

i just think its funny that more people whine about love interests than the game itself..are you paying 50$ for a good clean game or a virtual romance novel...while i also like the romance aspect itself..P.S its supposed to be a fighting game no ever said this is a dating game so i dont know why people care so much...it was especially funny to see how many people complained about no love interests in the awakening rather than the trillion bugs in that expansion

I don't think anyone wants it to be solely about romance. It's just that some people really enjoy the romance aspect along with the fighting and everything else. I really don't see why that is such a big deal.

[nick05son]

for example i think its funny that there is 500 pages on the romantic appeal of zevran lol...i dont think its a big deal but did you play awakening? technically it was horrendous while the story was ok (didnt like the epilogue) ...but if more people are complaining about your love interest not returning in a friggen expansion than the actually quality itself than there is something to be said about the state of gaming.

Silly me, all this time I thought DAO was an rpg!

Just go with it, that's humans being humans.(read in to it what you will)

Have you been watching the forum since Awakening hit the shelves? There are numerous threads about the bugs, and more are still coming. I can safely bet you right now that if you combined all their pages into one super thread, they'd easily dwarf the size of any of the love threads currently in existence. (Well, aside from the Tali thread for ME2 but that's another monster entirely.) Not to mention a lot of the posts on those love threads are made by the same twelve-twenty people when you really get down to it.
I know it seems like romance matters more to most people, but that's just because romance fanatics tend to stick to one thread - keep in mind that I consider myself a romance fanatic to some degree -as opposed to people complaining about the bugs who tend to make a new one whenever they feel incensed enough to do so. Plus, you also have to consider that there's an entirely separate forum for bug reports which helps to split most of the threads that might be posted.

I have also seen a bunch of threads talking about different bugs in the game and a bunch of threads just going over in general about things people liked and disliked about the game (not just romance or lack thereof) There is even quite a long thread with philosophical discussion on why or why not to spare the Architect.



People are just voicing their opinions on the subjects. Some people like the romances. I have seen no one posting that they are the be all and end all of the games, just that they add pleasant flavor.



Frankly I was more upset my damn mabari wasn't around to even just guard Vigil's keep than if my romanced partner was in the expansion and I was more upset about the bugs and the lack of continuity in the game to be worried about romances.



Probably also makes a difference that my Cousland girl got to see Alistair for a brief cameo in it. I get the feeling those complaining would have been quite content with just that or even some codex with an explanation where their companion was. Its the lack of continuity not kissy face action they are mostly vocal about.

yea i cant believe dog wasn't back are they serious, lol put him in a corner at least with a dog house idc just have him there.

[nick05son]

but its also funny about the rumored romance dlc pack coming out...how bout some patches first ya know..

yea and that tali thing i was reading that then i came here and read about zevran and was like omg what is going onnnnnn!! the tali thing is ridiculous

I don't play the game with Tali in it so I don't go up to those forums but I do know what you mean about the Zevran one. Frankly I don't romance him (though i can see where he has appeal to those who do) and thus I stay out of it usually as I have nothing to add to it but if you look you will see 90% of the posts are the same 10 or so people just chatting about their favorite NPC. Harmless fun and perhaps those who are still trying to work their way through the relationship can pick up tips from someone else who has been through the same storyline a few times.

I won't hold my breath on DLC romance pack thing till I see it.  Seems to me that wouldn't sell too well actually considering there are a lot of DA fans who just like the fighting too.  I don't know what the statistics are for those who are into the romances

(For the record I DO like the romances but as added flavor not as a be all and end all for my game)  I like continuity more though.  That was my biggest disappointment with the expansion.  that and the sucky dialogue system.  and that crappy silverite mines bug with the inventory getting lost

The OP does have a point, IMO.

When I buy a product which is technically not working or not working as it should work, then I would certainly not complain about a missing minor matter.
I'd rather try to convince the manufacturer of this product to make it running properly ASAP.

What's the deal with a nice romance in a game, when this game is - at least for many gamers - close to unplayable?

LOL could you imagine Dog and SerPouncealot in some cute little cutscenes?  Maybe something with him chasing the cat (or the cat chasing him) and then another with them all cuddled up asleep or something.  They missed out on major cute factor there.

[Addai]

So you make an entire thread to b*tch about other people talking about subjects of which you don't approve? That's pretty lame, OP.



I could explain to you how the Zevran thread came about and has gone on, but you don't rate the time.



Sorry you have a buggy game. I can play mine just fine. Maybe get a less crappy system to run yours on?

[Efesell]

Now come on, Awakening is buggy as hell.

[Realmzmaster]

Like Addai67, Awakenings ran fine for me from beginning to end. The 1.03 patch solved the long loading times also for me. I can only report what I experienced. YMMV.

[Addai]

I've had no problems with it. The worst bug I've encountered is that the armored ogres keep pounding as if they have a victim in their hands long after they're dead. Which could be a death twitch and thus is rather creeepy.

[errant_knight]

What's the point of this thread? That only you know how the game should be discussed? Perhaps you might was to lead by example then and actually discuss the game instead of throwing feces like an irritated monkey.

It is so sad to see the amount of people whining about love interests in this game love interests really...are you kidding me? there are more threads in this damn forum about stupid LIS than the amount of bugs and usless patches that fix nothing....Awakening dont even get me started on that bug fest..this is probably why bioware fixes nothing because they know people are happy as long as that have a virtual character to kiss over and over..wtf is happening to the state of gamers?

Could it be that this is the Campaign quests and storylines forum and not the technical forum. Go there and you may find posts on bugs and the like.

OMG that would be so cute and adorable to see lmao.  Imagining actually being able to see that interaction makes me want to ask Bioware how could you not put dog in   lmao.



As far as bugs for Awakenings I did find 1 on my second playthrough and it's been mentioned in a couple of other threads about where your arms are at wierd angles.  Mine where out in front of me as if I was holding both my weapons in my hand and they were stuck there but I was able to save and relaod it and they were back to normal.
I'm still having the problem at the end after the epilogue where it says what happened, my game keeps relooping on killing the Mother and walking away scene.  I have to literally hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get out of the game and that was with both playthroughs on my PC.

Oh look. he's found a new home. And he even gets taken seriously. What a triumph for a troll. Get over yourself. You are just one single individual, and telling people what to do and what to like never goes over well.

Maybe looking up what "RPG" means would help you.

[Domyk]

I could go either way. All I know is "Love Scenes" gets game publishers in trouble. Fox News made a huge stink over the first Mass Effect Love scene which I believe resulted in a very nerfed version in Mass Effect 2.



It is what it is.
