Both would make sense, but because Isabela is, by virtue of the CGI budget, the leading lady, she's likely to be stuffed in the straight fridge.

I hope you're wrong. That would make me a very sad panda. :crying:


I hope it's wrong.  But I've yet to see one shred of evidence that Isabela is f/f for DA2.

My bet - no party member f/f. 

We will get a Kelly Chambers style non-party NPC with a brief 'romance' that doesn't count towards Paramour achievement. 

Bioware will say what they said for ME, that Shepard is straight and is their character, not ours. 

I REALLY hope to be proved wrong, but I'm a realist at this point. .

I'll take that bet.  I can wager up to a custom ME2 computer, worth about 1500 or so.  What have you got? :D

As I said in the demo threads people need to learn to manage their entitlment and expectation issues.


I don't have to do anything of the sort.

I didn't preorder for a reason.

My feel is that Bioware are trying to rid themselves of the 'gay-friendly' tag they've acquired... possibly under pressure from EA to do so.

Isabela WAS bi in DAO.   If she's mysteriously now 100% straight, that sends a pretty clear message to me.

And if Bioware don't want my custom, fine. I'm sure other games will offer f/f given time.

Two kittens and a Snickers bar?  Posted Image

Seriously, I hope you're right.   I really hope you are.  I get the feeling we're probably on the same side here.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. If it was m/m, maybe, but f/f/? Liara in ME was 'leading lady' material, and she was the f/f option. Additionally, s/s for both sexes was confirmed for DA2, IIRC. Isabela's past being what it is, I think the odds favour your preference, whether she's a lead companion or no.

No you're not, you are being silly. They have flat out said there will be a M/M Love Interest and a F/F Love Interest and Isabella is canonically Bisexual and the tv tropes page has said she will be a gay option for lady hawkes.

I'm pretty sure bi options for both genders were confirmed, but it was in the m/m LI thread. Let me see if I can hunt down the quotes.

EDIT:

Alright, to put things shorty, someone mentioned that they'd probably do the bi romance like Mass Effect (meaning: f/f romance only, no m/m.)  Debates ensued, then Jimmy posted this:

"Like it or not nobody has actually confirmed male-male romances. Only that "all genders and orientations" will be catered too."

To which DG replied:

"Wow, that's some paranoia right there. Consider male-male romance confirmed, then. :)"

David Gaider directly confirming M/M romances.

Now I hear you saying "But makenzieshepard this is a F/F thread, what does M/M romances and cootie carrying boys have to do with anything?"

And I would say:

I want to know what drugs are being used by the person who thinks there would be an M/M romance, which it about a billion times more objectionable to the public in general, and there not be an F/F when combined with the fact that DAO had M/M and F/F romances and devs have said that there have been not backwards steps when it comes to romance choices.

And why aren't you sharing?  Because that must be some good stuff...

Yeah if anything I'm (half) expecting two f/f romance. Simply because everyone is expecting Merril *not* to be a f/f romance. BW seems to like doing clichés that defy clichés (like Jack *not* being the f/f LI in ME2, Morrigan not being the f/f LI in DA:O, etc...).

I wouldn't be totally surprised if that happened but at the same time I don't want to get my hopes up to that level.  I would probably die from the happy if there were two f/f romances options, even if I bet I'd go with Isabela 90% of the time.

Agree with you on all fronts.  Including the Isabela part.  Plus, if there were two f/f romances, that would give me hope for two m/m romances.

But as you said, better to be pessimistic and get more than you were expecting than expect too much and be disappointed.

On the bright side, panda tears are delicious.

Keep in mind, though, that BioWare said that there would be non-party member romances, too.  I think so, anyway.

So guys can get Isabella and potentially Merril, and the gays can get...Kelly/Karl Chambers!

If Fenris turns out to be the m/m romance then I can envision a sickening amount of fanfics being written about MaleHawke comforting Fen and trying to sooth his angst, and then making out with him.

Yeah, pretty much . I know it's not very fair to judge a character until you have played the game but Fenris seems to fit that character archetype .
On F/F romance I'm pretty sure it will be Isabela since she has displayed how she is "open-minded" in the first one and I don't think the writers have any intent on retconning her character .

Those fanfics will be written whether Fenris is an LI or not. :lol:

I understand anybody's concern after what happened with ME2. While its pretty obvious that those concerns don't seem to be accurate, the fact is we had Jack all but confirmed for ME2, and Tali as a safe bet as well, but then they got cut out, so its not like people are 'paranoid' who fear it happening again. ME2 turned into exactly what somebody asked about a few hours ago, no f/f teammates at all, except in DLC (LotSB was amazingly awesome, I actually just played that recently, incredibly beautiful romance with Liara, and who knew that the reporter, the one you can talk to or punch in both ME and ME2, was a lesbian too? That was hilariously awesome 'security camera footage', of like every alien race hitting her when she tries to interview them, except the Asari who she makes out with).



Before we heard about Aveline not being an LI after all, I'd have said it was a pretty safe bet that Isabella and Merrill were the f/f options, with Aveline being the male-only one, but now that there are only two, even though the higher ups did go WAY out of their way to debunk the myth that Merrill was 'straight' in DAO (which she clearly wasn't) it just seems like a logical guess that Isabella would be the only f/f option before mods. Hopefully that's wrong, and both will still be an option, but in any event I don't believe there's any real reason to fear an ME2-style removal of all of our LIs. I'm also hopeful that the non-teammate romance could be pretty good too, considering how awesome Kelly was in ME2. Quite honestly, if we did end up with Isabella, Merrill, and an awesome Kelly-like non-teammate LI to choose from, I can't imagine how I would choose between them :) .

MERRILL WAS NOT ROMANTIC TOWARDS ANYONE MALE OR FEMALE AND THIS WAS CONFIMED MULTIPLE TIMES BY THE DEVELOPERS GOING THROUGH THE DIALOGUE FILES.

It was even debunked in this very thread.

Dragon Age Wikia Link saying they couldn't find it.

Thanks. I'm a bit upset, but Aveline will still be awesome.

My money is on Isabela being the f/f love interest. I don't know why people are being so pessimistic when devs confirmed we'll have same sex romances in DAII.

Because if they are right the get to go "neener neener I was right :p" and if they are wrong they still get a F/F romances.  It's a win-win situation!
