You're entitled not to like him, sure, but saying you'd kill him off if there was a decision before actually interacting with him? It's silly. Very silly. Helicopter hat silly.

I'm rarely wrong when it comes to characters and gut feelings. I WAS wrong about Thane tho......still unless my gut feeling it utterly wrong I'm still Virmiring him if I have to

I'm taking both. With my rogue archer Hawke. Leaving the third companion behind.

Like a boss.

Goddamned, what's with all the "I hate dwarves so I pick Seb"? Though I'm pretty sure Occam was sarcastic (I hope). It's just as bad as "I hate Asians so let's hire Caucasians."

Both of them. With Isabela. And rogue Lady Hawke. Go go Team Sexy!



Oh, I am so screwed. I hope Seb learned how to make health poultices in the Chantry.




Yes, this was my plan as well (ROGUES DO IT FROM BEHIND!)

I thought Bianca shoots crossbows that shoot guitarists that shoot lightning? (at least that's what Mary said). Heck, I may even favour Varric for his GODDAMNED awesomeness of a crossbow. See the combat vid? Like awesome.

Varric haters to the left.




I do not hate Varric, I hate what he represents....



also.....why to the left?




Represents?






Yes, crimzontearz what does Varric represent that you hate so much..?



IMHO I believe it's just better to NOT hate anyone. Better for the soul.

I can't make a concrete decision on who I would ultimately pick until I play the game. I'm not a big fan of Varric at the moment, but once I play the game that could change.

Haters going to hate..

Also, I support full rogue parties. That's just how I roll.

My rogue Hawke's going to be a dual wielder, though. Can't play archers to save my life.

But don't you want to see all three of em' fire off that rain of arrows attack at once? Fight in the shade!

Varric. That noble douche is just going to get the party in trouble with his revenge fantasies.

Gooooood point. We shall see. I'd feel bad for Isabela, though, out there in the fray with her daggers. She's too pretty to be a pin cushion.

Haven't seen Seb in action - but I just watched the combat video again . . and Varric's waddle just really annoys me . . .he may have to stay home . . .

well depends on personality really. varric seems like more of the smart ass kind of guy and i tend to jive better with those people than ones who are a bit up tight. but if sebastian loosens up a little or doesn't come off as stiff/stern type of guy, or we get to mess with him/embarass him a little, i'd probably pick him then.



but i guess the real answer is both :)

Maybe Isabela can sit in the back and throw daggers from a distance.

Well...no. Not sarcastic, but then I also went out of my way to make sure I didn't say "hate." I also made sure to note that it was irrational; I fully acknowledge that fact. I have no burning hatred towards Dwarves, I just...I dunno...don't care for them? Many of them are tolerable; I didn't even mind Oghren much of the time. And a select few, like Dagna, I genuinely do like. But generally speaking, I don't find them very relatable. I always think of them as "Dwarf" first and whatever their personality is second. I'm not proud of it; it's a failing on my part. And yet, there it is.

So, given the following:

1. We may not always want or need more than one rogue in a well-balanced group
2. I plan on romancing Isabela in my first playthrough, so there's one rogue slot pretty much permanently occupied
3. We know precious little about these companions...so little that even superficial things are significant comparatively

...given the above...yes I would choose Sebastian over Varric simply because he is not a Dwarf.

That's not to say that nothing else will ever factor into my appraisal of Varric (or indeed Sebastian), but just going off what we have to work with now, non-Dwarfishness is significant enough to tip the scales.

Another opportunity to use this! Woot!

Though now I wish I had asked Aimo to put Jacob there as well but I haven't discovered the sweetness of the romance at the time yet, so yeah.

EDIT: Just so you know, this was not directed at you Occam, your post appeared right after I refreshed. Still imho hatin' dwarves is just so... racist? Maybe that's just me. I faced a fair share of racism in my lifetime.
