I mentioned this in another thread and it could easily apply here:



Easiest solution is to make a single set LI that's customizable like the PC. Everyone wins.

It won't happen but it's still the simplest solution ever.

Aside from people like me who would rather NOT have customizable LIs. The easiest solution is just making at least one male love interest gay/bisexual and one female love interest lesbian/bisexual. Make homosexual flirting initiated by the player only. Presto. Everyone is happy.

What would be wrong with a customizable (physically) LI?

Because some people prefer set characters? Every party member in Dragon Age looks the way they do because it fit their personality and background.

Every combination of sex/race would need their own voice over for a start. Then the character backstory and personality would have to be suitable to all possible combinations of NPCrace/NPCsex/Hakwesex which leads to a character that has the background and personality of a SIMs toon or a Fable spouse, read non at all.

You put it better than I did.
So yea, put in gay/bisexual characters, not Make-Your-Own-Characters template, agreed.

I never thought they did. Alistair looked too old, Leliana looked too innocent, Zev was blonde which didn't fit his accent at all for me, Morrigan wore too much make-up, etc.

Character customization probably isn't high on must have list for single player games. But it does help in role playing, like in DAO.

1: 2 VA's would be all you need. Male and Female.

2: When I said "set character" I meant 1 background for any possible combination. There's no reason every different combination needs a unique background.

3: What I neglected to add that I said on the other thread was that the personality could be influenced by the actions of the PC. You'd basically only need two sets of dialogue good and bad.

1.)All the races in the DA universe have their distinctive accent, so unless you make race default you need six voice actors.

2.)One background does not work with every combination unless it is so bland and generic that the character would be boring as hell and that is not a good start for an LI.

I am not a fan of having customisable NPC´s in game and especially as LI. It is best in my mind if Bioware just provides a suitable range of options to pick from ( but not a rogue for the m/m option we had that in both DA:O and JE give us a warrior or mage would be something fresh)

eh i could keep arguing this forever (the accents are localized not racial) but it was just a thought brought on by the knowledge that once the LI's are known there will be 150 threads about who hates this one and who wishes some other one was available. It's not something i'm dead set on getting or anything.

Oh the I-hate-XXX threads will come no matter what Bioware does, in fact several of them are already running after the little information that we have now. In Fact the worst that could happen is that no such threads would be opened because that means that no one cares about an NPC or game feature (and some of the threads can be pretty entertaining it would be a shame to loose them)

All easily fixed with mods. I replaced Morrigan, Leliana, Zevran and Wynne's faces.

In da one they had:

Straight sex, gay sex, group sex, prostitution, pirate sex, s&m, bestiality and shemales.

I think i covered everything.

My point is that even five steps backward in sexual options would probably still leave us with homosexual options.


uuuhm... bestiality and shemales? When? What? Who?
I also don't recall any s&m except some of Zev's idle conversation topics.


The "Female" prostitutes and nugs.

The word you're looking for is "transvestite".

We haven't confirmed the existence of any party members yet, never mind the existence of romances or what sorts of romances they might potentially consist of. Appreciate the enthusiasm, but you're getting a little ahead of the information curve, here. :)

So there won't be party members? :(

While I'm sure the implication here is not "there will be no party members" I am more confident that were there none quite a few loyal Bioware fans would walk away from the sequel.  I know that the lack of companions would probably be the *only* absolute deal breaker for me in a bioware game - I could put up with a lot else, but not that.

Lol . .. that would be awful if they excluded romance altogether! What they did in JE was pretty good, and DAO even better. two characters were bi, two were straight. Plenty of depth and options. I hope so . . . of course, something I love in a Bw game, so far as been guaranteed to get the axe >_<

Leliana and Zev romances were wonderfully written IMO.



I really want something similar in DA 2.

As Yana said, Leliana and Zevrans romances are great. And Alistairs & Morrigans, too. imo.

So I want something similiar in DA2. With bi and straight characters and in-depth romances.

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!
