Yes.  The problem has been confirmed via the console.  The romance flags, while they're supposed to be imported, are incorrectly reporting that they are not active in DA2.  So say you romanced Zevran, it will state in the debug app of DA2 that Zevran was not romanced though it does correctly report if the warden and Zevran had made love.

This seems to affect all of the romance partners.



That's good to hear then, since it is an issue that can be remedied via mods, and not something that has to be handwaved away because it contradicts things in origins.

I am waiting a few months before buying DA2, which by then, hopefully, patches will have been released, as well as mods, to improve some areas, such as aesthetics.

The facemorphs in DA2 of Origins characters are unforgivably grotesque, with only a handful of improvements (such as Isabella). I just saw a cameo of Zevran, and was rather offended. His voice and persona are still there, but like elves in general of DA2, his facemorph is an insult.

 Well that's just the cherry on top of the disgusting and failed cake :pinched: WHat's the point of finishing up my Origins playthroughs may I add!
*stuffs Xbox controller inside drawer*

@Glor : I think I might just do that :devil::devil:

Alistair is sad about what they did to him in DA2. :bandit:
I'm almost happy about my blood mage putting him out of his misery. Almost.

He sacrified himself to save my canon mage, which was an ending that makes me teary eyed. But in a good way. Not like Cammen-stair of DA2 makes me weep with rage. At least my canon Alistair has been spared this indignity, and got to go out in a blaze of glory, his memory forever shielded from the crackheads in Bioware's "new and improved" art department. :(

Oh, I'm just being loud about it because BW won't patch it unless enough people know about it and complain.  Mods are good but they don't help people on consoles.  I have a feeling the LIs stories are not completely over, which is why it needs to actually be patched!

I love you.

In a totally platonic way... because this post is AWESOME. And you haven't even pushed a button <3

I love the ****storm that is breaking over Bioware atm. Honestly it isn't even due THAT game (for me...haven't played it yet, so I reserve my final judgement about it) it's the whole crappy bullocks about Day one DLC, the extrem item pandering, the "game was rushed because EA wanted to profit from DA:O's success"- statement, the account thing, the SECO-ROM debacle (if true) etc, etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if a ****-load of DA2 DLC is yet to come..... to cash in teh AWESOME moneyz *ka-ching* :o  <_<

So all in all, it was an eye-opener for me.

*sings* [i]Befooore I waaaas bliiiind...buuuut noooow I seeeeee. B)

And here cute Alistair to soothe my nerves:

JUST an FYI here (because I'm an instigator). DA2 has import issues! As in, the romance active flags are not importing properly (though if you're a Queen CousCous, the fact you married Alistair imports, but the romance state does not).


Thanks for the heads up! Not that the Origins LI stories are my priority in this game. Izzy and Merrill are the only thing that I care for right now, at least where my Ciera Hawke is concerned.

And for a refreshing change from all the snarkiness going on in this place, here's someone who's loving DA2 and Drunkenstair! Short cameo but oh so delicious. :lol:

Blah that sucks! I was about to import my Amell again to replay Caira because I messed up alot the first time through. And even modders can't fix this with no toolset.  So Bioware really needs to get a patch going that fixes this issues AND the "spared the architect" issue.

Edit: I saw King Alistair, and really didn't think it was THAT bad but maybe it's just my video settings or something. The skin texture was different, and a bit wider but it looked better than the screenshots I've seen.

GROUP HUG!! :o

I haven't gotten it either...but that is to blame on the long delivery time. I amuse myself in the meantime with the ****storm in the DA2 forum and fawning/drooling over that FRIKKIN AWESOME Skyrim- trailer. :wub::wub::wub:

You know how long it takes to go to London with the Eurostar? 3 HOURS! It's been almost 48 hours!...I'm doing a daytrip to London when ME3 comes out.:bandit:

I have to say reading the sh*it-storm on the forums is very fun.

A game that makes me tear up is good. A game that makes me, who usually abhor sadism, want to gruesomely tear someone apart is great.

That's DA2. That son of a b**** needed a death cutscene.

He wouldn't need to be a psychopathic killer for me to want to mutilate him horrificly.

True. This is my Hawke in-game and her reaction to see Nintendo man.

Or..it is simply a random interwebs picture, but that would be pretty dull in comparison :P

Me too, Elysis!! The wait (and trying to avoid spoilers) is killing me. Also not very good at the spoiler avoidance, either.
