I'd be willing to buy a digital copy of this thing, but I don't think I can. Get with the times, Germany! I need to spend a stupid amount of money on something that doesn't really prove much!


You can't order it outside of Germany. Sigh. I just created a thread asking any German players to provide info/screenshots of the article.

Everyone keeps saying that they're all bi, has this been confirmed ? If yes, then forget what I said, I didn't know that.


So you never actually saw the magazine? Thank the Maker I didn't get excited then.

I'll probably go and hunt tomorrow for an open magazine store, and go find one who has a test of Dragon Age 2. ^^ Just in case I find something about romance in French magazines... (seems unlikely but we can never know :whistle:)

Right people - Someone needs to fly to Germany and buy this magazine - Now.

Seriously. :lol: Balthamoss, if you're up to it, it'd be nice if you could head back to whatever store you saw the magazine and buy a copy for scanning (but don't post the scans directly in the thread, the devs won't like it).


Well, I'm not gonna run to the store now and shell out 5 euros for a magazine just so i can scan one small pic ;)
I don't know why everone's so distrustful, but you will see, the game will be out soon anyway.


Dude, people have been speculating about this for weeks. You are only adding to it, and that's really a bummer. If you say A,  you have to say B. You get people all excited about something but you can't back it up.

The article said that if you meet a party member, you can probably bone then.
Male or Female, everbody is fair game.

 Hi,
for those wondering who will be the m/m LI :
i just read a Dragon Age II review in a German magazine - it said that Fenris can be romanced by male Hawke, there was even a screenshot of a conversation between Hawke & Fenris with the heart icon. ;-)


Guys, keep in mind the "heart icon" does not mean "romance". It means flirtation. The actual article seems to think that everyone in your party, excluding your sibling, is a romance. We know that's not true.

We wish it had been confirmed, but alas no. But that means nothing to us. We stand firm in our belief ;-)

So, you didn't buy the magazine, is that right? Do you remember exactly what it said though? Could you say it specified that Fenris was definitely the only male bi romance interest? Was it clear that it was a romance and not just flirting? Or might it have been able to be interpreted as Fenris being a male bi LI (leaving the possibility there that there may be another/more)?

Enquiring minds need to know.


Hi,
no it did not say that Fenris is the only m/m LI, so there's still hope for Anders ;) 
They only show a screenshot to explain the new conversation system. Something like "The heart icon indicates that Hawke can now start a romantic conversation with Fenris, who can have a same sex relationship with Hawke."
That was it basically B)

But that person was misinformed. That isn't want the heart icon means. It means you'll flirt with them, not necessarily start a relationship.

Wasn't it the Germans who leaked the Zevran M/M relationship too?

Yay.

So we know you can defintely flirt with Fenris. 

Not that he's an actual option. 

Good thing I didn't start getting happy.

No, it was a Russian website that posted screencaps of Zevran asking if you were offended that he fancied you.

Hey, umm...
If it's a REVIEW from a person that played and beat the game, and they say that.
Take it as the truth.

No, it's not. Because a) It doesn't mean they actually attempted to romance a guy. B) From everything I've seen they have no idea that the heart icon is for flirting, not for romance. C) They're under the impression that every companion outside of your sibling is romancable. This is just false.

Reviews have occasionally gotten information wrong. Particularly in the rush to publish to sell magazines the quality of fact-checking can be terrible.

Who are you to say it's incorrect?
You're just being paranoid because it's in German.
When you have to realize it's their mother tongue over there.
If you picked up a review that said that in English you'd believe it.
The heart means flirty yes, but it also means romantic. And the reviewer would NOT say you could have a same sex relationship if you couldn't.

This German one never said everyone except your sibling is romanceable.
Stop getting reviews mixed up.

Lol, sorry but this is getting ridiculous. Are you asking me to spend my money(!) and time, because I have to "prove" what I saw.
I wanted to know who the m/m Li is for a while, today I read it the review, got excited and thought I'd let the people here  know. And now I'm a troll or something. Geez

Read it again ... they say 'can now start a romantic conversation with Fenris, who can have a same sex relationship with Hawke'. I read that as 2 parts of a sentence -- you can start a romantic conversation (i.e. flirting, that doesn't necessarily have to lead anywhere, depending), and secondly, Fenris is a romantic interest for mHawke.

Not saying this is conclusive of anything, just that it could be read either way.

It's still way too early to take anything at true value. Some say this, others say that. Best we can do is hope, but not get dissappointed when the one we want isn't chosen. Unless of course... they're all bi. Then some of us would jump for joy while others will complain about how unrealistic it is to have everyone sorta gay. (Me? I don't care about the realism. It's a game.)

Because it is. 

An English magazine got the same info wrong so I'm not being "paranoid." 

Also what Saibh said.

Sigh, why don't they just confirm it already instead of letting people get riled up like this. This is just lame. Guys get the priority treatment again. (with the f/f confirmed already)

edit: one / too many :wizard:
