I'd bet my money on Fenris


Gaider said he worked on a LI and he only did Fenris as a companion, so that seems to point that Fenris is a LI.

...How? :lol: I see tattoos/experimented upon to be a weapon. I could say I see Merrill as a verion of Zevran because tattoos/Dalish heritage.

...and Anders, for a somewhat existential menage a trois. I just don't see them doing a dwarf romance.


They promise to do a dwarf romance at some point...I just don't see it being Varric. Especially with the more obvious and likely candidate of Anders.

Isn't he also the writer for Anders...and Justice?

No? Cos that would be unfair? You mean like how male Shepard has two choices and female Shepard has one (and please do not tell me, a heterosexual woman. that Liara is an option to me, unless you can show me evidence that she is packing a pork sword along with that womanly bosom....................................... <_<) 
Sorry, sorry........................ I'll get me coat :unsure: It is just that why would it be such a terrible thing for the female gamer to get more choices for once?
As it happens you are probably right, history shows us that the male gamer always gets more.
Either way, I am really looking forward to the game and have pre ordered two signature editions (PS3 and 360) :D and have had money sidelined for ages for it! 
ETA - Also - What Saibh said! :D

Hey, I'm a gal too and I'm not saying it's fair, I've just learned to be satisfied with the fact that the best girls are going to get is equality, I doubt anyone at BW has even considered giving women gamers -more- LIs than men, their primary target audience. Basically, we're lucky they even decided to give us the same amount of LIs, it seems.

I think Fenris is a shoo-in, he seems like Thane, tailor made to appeal to women with his sensitive tragicness and mystery. Which makes me all the more anxious for Anders. :?

PS: Regardless of the whole argument there, I love that Varric GIF. ::instant save!::

Varric is basically confirmed to not be an F/M romance, with this, I think :( I would eat my hat is Fenris and Anders aren't, and they're not going to have three F/M and only two M/F.


How do you figure that?

I would have thought with the changes in Anders that a romance with him would be equally dysfunctional.

Oh, I get it now. But what about the first part?


Well, from what we know there's six companions and Gaider is against NPC romance. Aveline, being part of the three female characters, not being a romance would mean there's two possible characters to romance per gender.

So... Merrill / Isabela / Fenris and somebody between Anders and Varric. It's all crazy speculation of course, though everything points it that way.


I see. Well, have they confirmed that there will be an equal number of males and females to romance? I mean, I would assume it's very likely to be that way, but still.

So this confirms we have two romances.
...I guess this confirm that Anders isn't a romance? ...

Where do you get these conclusions from?

His fantasy land.

Wow, that was unnecessarily ****y. Haha. Man, these forums.

I'm going to have a bout of explosive laughter if it's confirmed that Varric is, in fact, an LI. 

Me too. In fact thats really the only reason I want Varric to be romancable.

Ok That  last bits a lie

So... If Aveline isn't a LI, and Varric isn't a LI... (as epic as Varric may be, Anders is far more likely as a LI)



This has me wondering what would happen if Varric and Aveline paired up?

The story would suddenly find itself lacking a narrator.

Is she? That's an interesting turn. I wonder why they chose to divvy it up like that? The Lead only writing one companion...huh.

Can you find that Gaider quote, Dave?

Oh I know. I don't really see Fenris as 'dysfunctional' though, so much as... melodramatic. But that's just based on first impressions.

Wait, I meant the one where Gaider said he wrote one of the romances. Although, it's good to have that one, too, thanks.

This would give me further pause toward the idea of a Varric romance, how would the overall narration playout or be affected by such a thing?

DG: "There’s only so much we can do, but I think trying out some different things like DAII takes place over a large span of time, and I always found that the romances can be a bit strange and that they don’t grow organically. It’s sort of a situation where you’re in this life-or-death adventure, you’re comrades that have been thrown together and passion springs out of that. It was nice to get the opportunity to have a romance that took place over years as opposed to a month at best. That was interesting to try, until I learned."

Well, that does seem like an absolute guarantee Fenris is a LI, since we know who all the other companion and their writers are.

Thanks. ^_^

Well, this is my "the unfair sex" role kicking in but:

[trollmode]

Ha, ha, ha, wouldn't that be comeuppance from the years and years we've always had less LIs then you? HA HA HA

[/trollmode]

That said, there is most likely another companion in DLC. If Sebastian is a LI, then so would that (probably female) companion.


Yeah, I'm not too bothered by the though of femhawkes having more LIs than male ones. I just remember that in BG2 males had three LIs and females had only one, and he was an arrogant ****** who talked like he was in a trashy romance novel and seemed to believe it
I think Sebastian being a love interest would be really great, and a nice progression for DLC characters, since Zaeed and Kasumi in ME2, being a LI as well would integrate him into the game more, Zaeed and Kasumi feel definitely like add-ons to me, especially on the Normandy, though Kasumi may be my favorite shipmate after Garrus
most likely another DLC companion? that'd be very cool, especially if female and a LI as you're speculating
