I built up a long game romance with Alistair, I supported him to become the king, although I didn't choose the option where I would rule next to him, now I wish I did. I thought it would have been more romantic if he chose me to be his wife on his own, which is where I thought it would go to. But after the coronation he comes to me and tells me he has to end our relationship because he needs to have children, and since both of us have the taint we can't have offspring, so he did it for the good of Ferelden. . . I knew at the time that I would always wonder what would have happened if I chose the option where he was to become king and I would rule next to him, and now I seriously regret it. I lost the save of course as I kept on playing hoping that he would come back to me and tell me it doesn't matter he loves me anyhow and he would accept me as his wife.

If you are wondering yes he proffessed he loved me and we slept together several times, his rating was about 90 I think

So now I am left with seeking the answer to the option that I chose out of modesty. Could I have ruled beside him as his queen if I chose that option, or would he come to me again to tell me that it wouldn't  work?

Has anyone else as a female character gotten to that point and chosen that option?

In the end, my character left an empty woman, I chose to travel the lands instead of anything else as I couldn't stay in the kingdom after that.

This is a man you practically have to drag across hit coals it get into bed. The words 'Alistair' and. 'Initiate' don't belong in the same sentence.

Yes, I believe you can become queen.

I seriously felt my stomach drop when he initiated that conversation after his coronation, I could tell from the tone straight off: OMG r u breaking up with me??!

So, did you go through with Morrigan's plan then? Otherwise it would be even sadder. Well, depending on how you feel about romantic gestures =/

I know you have to be a human noble to get the queen ending, and unfortunately I played through as a mage, so I am stuck  in your boat. (man I mages though lol) However, since I do have a ton of saves right there, I am going to try the route where he isn't king.  So even if one of us dies, I won't give him the chance to dump me.

 

[daelyn75]

I was a mage, and yes my stomach dropped as well. I was very sad after going through that.



Yes Alistair is a bit of a clumsy goof, but he is cute and adorable in his own way. I did have Morrigan use the ritual on him, since well there was no way to rekindle that relationship, I might as well survive the Archdemon fight.

[kaispan]

yeah, it kind of broke me out of the game... even if you talk to him afterwards and find out he's just trying to keep his distance because it would be too difficult if he let himself slip or something. I was almost like, ok but what's the point? Heroic sacrificial ending here I come!!



the most sensible/realistic thing to do would be have him marry Alora. I'm not sure if you can convince him of that as long as you're romancing him though.



Ugh the endings are all so twisted and tragic, I hate it and love it at the same time. >_>

[daelyn75]

It was more bitter than sweet IMO, but at least I was hailed as the hero at the end.



Ok as to David Gaider . . . ENOUGH BITTERSWEET ROMANCES! Let the girl get the guy in the end and vice versa, too much broken love and dreams I think, makes me sad and miserable.

I love that you put the at the end.

I'm about to finish the game, but I need to go to bed. lol. I'm playing a human noble and I put myself on the throne with Alistair at the Landsmeet. He was surprised but also happy - he joked about not having to ask me to marry him. He did bring up the heir issue and mentioned the Grey Warden fertility problems right after the decision, but I gave him the "not for lack of trying" response and he seemed ok with that for now. (We know Fiona had a child and ostensibly she is his mother so.. why can't we ge pregnant?) This was of course before I asked him to sleep with Morrigan so we'll see how it all ends. I think I'm about to begin the last battle at the fort, but it will need to wait until tomorrow to see how it all pans out.

I was very surprised at how changed he was after Landsmeet. Quite jarring. I'm also surprised that he agreed to Morrigan's offer. Is it his duty to Ferelden that makes him decide to or his love for you? Afterall he could choose to not join you at the fort to save himself. But he's Alistair I guess.. he won't do that.. tho he will run off and drown himself in ale if you don't kill Loghain. WTF Alistair! lol.

it would almost be worse if you found out there was a 'perfect' ending, but you picked the wrong dialogue choices/origin story/etc so you missed it. =/

wait, that's almost what happened...

Just kill the little sniveling light-hearted ******. If you can't have him no one can.

[kaispan]

 


Well, in my game (human mage/Alistair king--->dumped) he was absolutely revolted and completely against Morrigan's idea, enough to the point I was like "I can't make you do this"... I'm pretty sure I could have convinced him but he was so relieved when I changed my mind that I really couldn't make him. He was getting all outbursty and outraged like at Landsmeet and it's just so hard to hear him like that! What happened to my cute cuddly Alistair?? 

Of course once I gave up, he got all cute and yawny like nothing was wrong, and I was just thinking: you know that means I'm going to die, don't you?



edit: I'm definitely going as a noble now lol, even though I wanted to try other romances, I fear they will all fall for Alistair. Although, seeing him so different at the end really makes me re-examine him... I'm not sure I really know what he was all about.

I really feel that Alistair was the only choice for a me as a straight female character, Zevran I couldn't get close to, I didn't know what to do to get him to like me, and not for lack of trying even though he was +18 or something he turned on me and tried to kill me. Also he was short compared to my human height, and I wouldn't be going for short males . . .


Isaantia   I envy you, you had the ending I wish I had. I would have left the game feeling content if he took me as his queen.

This is the one line that is missing from his dialog. I wanted to have a choice here that said something like.. HEY if you don't do this you might die but I might die too. Ferelden needs a king and hey I need my life.

Then again, I took that warden oath. heh. So did he. Pesky thing, that.

It seems to me you just picked the wrong option.

If you want to marry Alistair, you can. You just have to persue it.

[daelyn75]

I thought it would be too presumptious to pick to become his queen, and that I might start a huge fight in the landsmeet again because it would seem like the Greywardens were taking over. Little did I know that he wouldn't make me his queen afterwards.

I wanted to choose it, I should have, but now that has been lost to me forever. So here I am seeking some kind of absolution for my poor choice.

I pursued the hell out of that man! I could have used some pursuing right back. >_<

The words 'Alistair' and. 'Initiate' don't belong in the same sentence.

oh...oh right.

Am currently romancing him with my female dwarf commoner, have already decided that i'm going to let anora rule and sacrifice myself. On my first playthrough with my male dwarf noble, i was so touched by what Alistair and oghren had to say to me before the final battle and it actually brought a tear to my eye at the funeral when (Spoilers)









Gorim is allowed to return to Orzammar and you are accepter into House Audeacan.









Love the writing for this game ....

Well, as long as you are playing a mage, I don't think it would have worked out. =/  I can't remember if I even saw that dialogue option... but my mind was kind of overloaded at the time.

Is it me or are the men extremely timid in Bioware games? I admit it would be nice to be fought for once in a while lol!

The oath didn't say anything about god souled demon babies though....

OMG is there a game where that even happens?? I guess I knew Alistair's character might be a little on the slow side (hush, Morrigan, not like that), but ....but....

Yes sadly in online games. I've had an RP romance before, was quite sweet how it was done, and he persued me like I was the only thing in the world to him even defying all the guild rules and getting us both in hot water . . .

Ugh sad that it has to be in an MMO to get that. Men are generally not so timid in real life, well some are but many aren't.

[kaispan]

Well, as far as RL goes, I've found the old saying about opposites attracting proved true again and again... unfortunately my attraction towards talkative confident men leads to a lot of self-absorbed **** sort of men. Huh.

And what MMO? I admit I haven't played many, but the ones I have seem a bit lacking on the RP elements, more of the social player interactions and the kind of brainless quests you don't really read.  And certainly no romancing!!

In some areas for me too yes, but for the most part i've found the same strong soul as I am and often we do clash over things. Fiery and passionate, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

[kaispan]

count yourself lucky!! 

[daelyn75]

It was in Warhammer Online, and I feel the same way with player interaction. That is why I always go for the RP servers when I can. I was a Witch Elf, and he was a Black Guard, and it was completely against the Lore that I could be in a romance with anyone but the god I served lest he come and strike me down. I had to leave because of it in the end, sad but sweet that it happened as it did. Anyhow the game was stale for me after four months and the guild had become a little stuffy when it came to the rules. I don't regret leaving it all behind me, especially when I had my RL wedding to contend with in that same time frame so . . .
