Sure, you can imagine Hawke is a dwarf.

[Icinix]

MaleHawke, then FemaleHawke, then in DA3 Female Hawke can get it on with my MaleWarden and viceversa.

Both but even though I'm male I'll probably play female first.

Don't ask such obvious flamebait questions. Learn subtlety in thine trolling.

Also, for a medieval setting I'm sure the game is already going to include a baffling amount of strong and independent female characters without even the protagonist being such.

Assuming I let that "without even the protagonist" comment slide...

Strong and independent female characters in Origins:

1. Ser Cauthrien
2. Morrigan
3. ???

I really don't see any validity in either of your remarks.

I havent been online for a while this is news to me eh

[Sylvius the Mad]

If the game is any good at all I'll play both several times each.

I have been called many things included pervert, immature, a misogynist and misogamist, the last one i do answer to . I usually play female characters but more from a perspective that since the game is 3rd person it means that i will have to watch tail wiggle and wobble for hours on end. I will probably follow the DAO leanings i have had in which of my 20 completed plays 18 characters were female as i prefer the female form to the male. I am not EVEN going to debate which is better as it is a matter of personal preference and should not be open to debate, to each his own. It is interesting though how on the only 2 male characters i have the attention to detail Bioware took to ensure there was some differences in how the world responded to the PC based upon the sex, and it is something i hope they do not over look in DA2, more to the point i would like it to be expanded on in greater detail.

Why would you assume that "MaleHawke" or "LadyHawke" instantly means human Hawke, then? This poll does not make the distinction, just asks which gender will you play first. There's no reason to ask if you can play a dwarf in this thread.

[mya11]

I will playing lady hawke

Besides the ones you mentioned Origins/Awakening and the general lore include a lot of important, strong female characters. Two dalish Keepers, Leliana, Andraste, Empress Celene, Wynne, Mhairi, Velanna, Marjolaine, Queen Anora, etc. And I doubt the trend is going to change direction in DA2.

Quality female characters are important to have in basically any setting. But in this particular medieval dark heroic fantasy one, at one point I think I can't help but start to question the believability of some of them. Now, if you argue that "it's fantasy, everything should be possible", then I start to wonder why to chase realism to such an extent, when if one wishes for those unrealistic elements the obvious way to carry that out would be to create a setting that doesn't particularly try to evoke much realism to begin with - say the Warcraft of Discworld settings for instance. I just think there is a sort of conflict of of interests going on here - the setting wanting to have its cake and eat it too.

Im playin both but ill prolly go with male hawke on my first playthrough

[Tiffa J]

Have no freaking clue yet. Will have to maybe get more details and screencaps. Might not decide until I have the game and making my Hawke.

[Valfreyja]

Lady Hawke of course. Male protagonists just aren't interesting enough to make me play them if I have the option of playing something else.

[Ranger Discord]

^ agreed

[Collider]

I'll be playing both, but my first playthrough is going to be male.

[Firky]

Lady Hawke is cute - but Male Hawke then Lady Hawke.



I'm a RL woman, but I'm used to playing RPGs as men. Playing as female just makes me remember that I wish they would hurry up and make a sequel to Dreamfall. I guess I associate female protagonists with the Adventure genre.



Having said that, Lady Hawke looks like being a great option and I'll surely give her a whirl on my second playthrough to make sure I don't miss anything.

And what about people who do not want to play either one? The whole idea of having one char only, together with other info I have read made me to decide not to buy DAO2. I do not want to have other shooter ala ME2 in a fantasy world.

I think if someone had to choose one....it would be their on sex/gender.

Totally wrong.

I´m male and I´ll definitely play Lady Hawke.......

Because people are assuming that if you don't want to buy the game, you wouldn't waste your time ****ing about it on the forums. But I suppose it's a false assumption.

[ankuu]

I'm playing a male rogue and a fem mage And as i said b4, my male Hawke will be called Danvid xD
