I do have my opinions of Alistair and they are really not all very pleasant, containing words like whiny, weepy, and spineless. I will not discuss them here however as this thread is about your wonderful project and not my opinions. But I will say opinions of him have not been without input from the female persuasion either.
It does surprise me how many people really do like Alistair. My own female friends who are familiar and have played the game do not hold him in high regard at all. Their opinion is he is “not man enough”. Not my words, so please be kind.
His biggest crime according to my female friends is he doesn’t take the initiative to approach the Female Warden on his own to be friendly or to try and start something. His bashfulness is cute, but he should have “tried”. Blame is not really placed on him though, as it is really Bioware’s fault for scripting him this way. Bioware would have done better if they had given Alistair some self initiated cut scenes upon entering the camp where he is shown trying.
Try romancing Alistair after he's hardened.
When Alistair gave her the rose, he was quite forward and planted a kiss on my FMage without prompting. Then backed off and asked "if it was too soon".
Later on, she walked into camp and he ambushed her with sweaty palms and all. He was definitely hardened in more than one way. He was at 95+ Approval and we hadn't done the deed yet. He was more than a little keen to jump her bones. I almost expected him to say, "GET IN THE TENT, WOMAN!!!" (ala Male Warden to Morrigan).
Now that would have been a sharp reversal of roles!
