Not to open a can of rabid worms, but can any of the developers give a "Yeah" or "Nay"?  It's probably a bit of a deal-maker/breaker for some of us, especially after Mass Effect 2!

I hope so. I also hope the gay romance isn't with an assassin type.

Romance options in a game are a deal breaker?

I would like to think they will, considering they featured so heavily in the first game.

If my FemHawke (yes, I went there) only has a range of guys to pick from, I'm afraid she'll have to go celibate.



Especially if the only human of the bunch likes priiiizes.

thank you! I'm glad you dared. I was going to ask the same thing.

The comments from the devs have been ringing a bit too close to Dr. Ray's "This is a predefined character in a third person narrative geared toward a core demographic" defense for excluding same sex relationships in ME.



Just to be clear though i'm not trying to demand its inclusion since details are still scarce and I refuse to assume that that absolutely is the case.

But I worry so I too am curious if it would be possible to give a little yes/no as to whether the options will exist at all.

I like how we know like almost nothing about the game but you guys go talking about romances

I can't speak for everyone but for some people it wouldn't be the romance options themselves so much as the decision to go hetero-only after the entire ME2 debacle and everything said during that.
Many people were at the tipping point already and remaining loyal to Bioware based on the inclusiveness of DA. If that is taken out there are some who will probably abandon ship.

Edit:

Asking. We're asking about romances. Nothing wrong with asking.

I like how you present yourself as not caring about speculation about a newly announced game, but spend time browsing a forum specifically created for that purpose.

I'm sure the love interests will be as diverse in Dragon Age 2 as they were the first game, if not more so.

seriously though. my Bioware female leads have a long standing tradition of falling for the girls. To even think this wouldn't be possible again... yeah, I'd rather not think about it :)

Supporting a male homosexual romance. Not with a Zevran-like character this time, hopefully.

I predict this will not be the last thread on this topic.



And I hope you fans of same sex love get what you want.

An awesome assassin?  Man there is just no pleasing some people.

Heh, maybe M/M fans don't want an amoral womanizer character this time around.

Totally explained by his backstory and he was actually a pretty decent guy.  But then Bioware fans love to hate the romances.

So we aren't allowed to not be completely satisfied with whatever Bioware gives us? :(

I hope there are not same sex romances; it creeps me out and I find it immoral.

Or with long blond hair and a pletty failylike face...
He will have to be bisexual though.. they can't "waste zots", you know. :sick:

Or maybe they should let someone else write the romances, pletty please!

Not being able to romance who you want can be a deal breaker for you?

All I'm saying is that M/M fans may not want a repeat of what's already been done. The saucy assassin's been covered already.

We will be talking about this topic every hour of every day up to during and after the game has been released.
