To be fair, I *think* that it's mainly because it's a game.  The whole possessive/overprotective/violent thing works in fiction.  It can be considered hot/sexy and I can see that to an extent, mainly because it's just fantasy and not real.  Whereas if you encounter someone like that in real life, it's different and you decidedly do not want someone like that.  I remember Gaider said something about this that rang true with me.

True. Fantasy romances have nothing to do with real-life romances. Some of these characters are seriously screwed up. When people say things like "I want to date my romance" or "why can't they be more sensible like someone in real life" my response is generally "Good God, why would you want that? This is a fantasy in more ways than just the genre."

In other words, if I gave some of these people what they thought they wanted, my suspicion is they wouldn't actually want it. So I excel at giving people what they don't want. Which is weird, but there you go.

Also, not to get too off topic, but I understand why Twilight has appeal to people.  While I find it very strange and I would not want to ever date someone like that, a lot of people enjoy it.  I doubt those same people who enjoy the romance in Twilight would want that sort of boyfriend/significant other in real life.

What video are people talking about on pg 576?

Gah. I can't find that quote where someone said that since David was interviewed about writing a romance over a 10 year period and since Fenris is the only male companion David wrote that means he is a love interest. Whoever you are, I agree with you.

@Fenn

Thanks

Carver reminds me of the younger brother in Chronicles of Narnia.

Does this mean there was a time when you imagined you understood us?

Holy crap that's why he seemed so familiar!

Anyway, I don't know why but I'm getting a bit of a young hot-blooded warrior vibe from Fenris as opposed to him being stoic.

It is all about looks, personality is secondary.

Did you guys watch this?  Is that Fen or Varric...doesn't really sound like Varric but I dunno.  It's very clear.

"Bloody flames, what were those things?"  Is that supposed to be him...?  Sounds American, I dunno...I know the person was right next to Fenris and he had a bubble over his head, but it really sounds like Varric to me.

I figured it was Fenris since he had the little speech bubble thing visible. Thought it fit more with Varric though.

Sounds like Varric to me. The voice starts a bit before the bubble on top of Fenris appears.

[fighterchick]

Yeah, going back and listening to just Varric VA, it sounds like him to me.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, Neesa. Sounds like something Varric would say more than anything.

It's most likely Merrill.

I heard an accent.

And which American accent? North east, south west? That defintely wasn't my American accent. :innocent: Just teasing.

[Maera Imrov]

That sounded more like Varric to me.

It was Varric. But the player took control of Fenris at the moment.

I have this irrational conspiracy theory in my head that despite the info embargo being lifted, that there are still a few stipulations flying about. Like no FemHawke VA and no Fenris VA. Amongst other things. How else in all the piles of vids we've seen today could we manage to not hear even a snippet of Fenris' voice?



Eh, maybe it's time I step away and go back to writing my Avatar fic and see what the next few days brings.

I don't think we've heard Merrill's voice, or Anders (despite awakenings, he might have a new voice when he's possessed).  Someone tell me if I'm wrong...

[Neesa]

I suppose we could wait for a cutscene voice clip. We don't know what those speech bubbles mean yet, do we? It may just signify when a character has something to say. Maybe not something important or plot-related but more like an opinion on the current situation.

Edit: Pretty sure lady Hawke is still selected while that line is said though.
