Here's a screenshot with the new hardening dialogue. I think if you right-click the picture you should be able to see it large enough to read the options.

Lady D, please don't take offense! That line is much better than the original and I'm glad it's there, but it's still not something my PCs would choose to say. It's not your fault the hardening options got narrowed down to one stupid line. LOLLadyDamodred wrote...
Awww. ( ._.)
I tried to make the two lines better. It's hard because we have to make whatever you say there mesh with the lines he will say later about standing up for himself. So the lines have to make sense within the game, as well as get across the message you want Alistair to hear.
Oh, I'm not offended. Just sad b/c I understand the feeling. What I wouldn't give to have his hardening be more like Leliana's where you can talk through it.

@Persephone -- LOL, I do have a character that went after Thane! I was impressed with his character when I was playing through on my canon that I couldn't wait to roll a new Shepard to get to know Thane better. Damn, the guy is deep! I am wary about ME3 because I don't want them to just make him a cameo or write him out somehow because of his pre-existing backstory. =/
Edit: And re: drunk in DA2, yeah, but I'd be on Hawke so it feels pointless. Unless ... Hawke could make him feel better, make his pain go away ... yeah, that would work!

Heh, I am *finally* playing ME for reals right now. I'm all about Garrus. Team Kittylizardman ~_~ Though I wanted to romance Liara especially because of the Shadow Broker DLC, but I want to romance Garrus in ME2... Everyone's all in love with me right now, Shepard works even faster than the Warden. I might just romance Kaidan and cheat on him in ME2. Shepard got a new lease on life, or something. I DUNNO.

Garrus is all *w* and adorable, even though every time I talk to him it feels like Shepard is lecturing him. He is awesome. PLUS. DAT VOICE.

Hehe, that really has to be embarrassing. The entire Landsmeet watches your petty attempt at being Queen being rejected by th man you placed on the throne. Ouch!
By the way, am I the only one who imagines the PC saying the "I will rule beside him (or her in Anora's case)", raising their arms and with an ominous voice as if they were deviously celebrating all the power they're about to grab?
"Muahaha, I will be Queen!".

Badass is the word, not adorable!
But yea, sometimes I find him cute. How cute and badass ever mixed so perfectly, I have no idea.

I can't help but find turians adorableAnd Garrus is the most adorable.

Garrus is just awesome. I don't know that I will romance him (I did make a character for him, but never started) because he is just too cool and in sync with my Shepard that it feels like they're more of best friends than romance partners. Garrus is the guy she has a beer with after work while Kaidan is the guy she goes home to.

I hear ya about OOC! Let's see... my first playthrough I:
didn't recruit Leilana (she was crazy!), Sten (he murdered a family!), or Zevran (he tried to kill me!)...
didn't do some of the Mage Collective quests (like the Lyrium one - thought that was like drug pushing)...
didn't even know about the Blackstone Irregulars (saw 'em but figured a quest would take me to them since they didn't have a ! over their heads like the MC's did and then just forgot about them later in the game)...
didn't ever grab the picket pocket skill (even though I was Rogue, I was an honest one!) so didn't see the "robin hood" quests...
didn't do the Crows quests (I think I killed Ignacio at our first meeting lol)...
didn't talk to Anora before the LM because I was still pissed at her for turning on us when we rescued her (though I will admit I deserved it since she'd just told me she was in danger from both sides) and subsequently couldn't get the votes I needed between not having her support and not doing the Trial of the Crows...
made Alistair King without suggesting I be queen (thank the Maker I didn't suffer THAT embarrassment on my first playthrough) wanting him to propose in his own time...
which I was sure was going to happen when he came and told me we needed to talk after the LM... which of course instead led to him dumping my DE (at which point I actually stopped playing because I was so ticked off and came *this* close to shelving the game for good).
So yes, there's a lot of things my PCs do now that I've had to come up with some creative RPing to "allow" them to do the things I want done from a metagaming standpoint. But, it's all fun... except for the hardening Alistair thing... that one is never enjoyable for me.

Thank you, tuppence95! These options are a lot better! Though giving him a hug would still be my preferred response... But I guess if I want to make the lives of the elves in the Alienage easier (which will apparently only happen with Ali as King), I just have to be more cynical that I usually am, lol.

Any class can get the quests once your PC grabs a point of the pickpocket skill (but you'll need someone with high cunning and/or stealth to be able to accomplish all the tasks). Once you have a point in pickpocketing, go to Denerim and look for Slim Couldry (he's standing beside Goldanna's house, near the Chantry courtyard.
