It occurs to me it might be possible to flirt with Aveline, and the reviewer mistook their meaning.


I think that this is such a small portion of the game and I cannot fathom why this is the main talking point...


Because it's the only piece of misinformation we see in the review, and any misinformation means that the rest of the review is under suspect.


Who says it's impossible to flirt with Aveline? You absolutely can. Whether it goes anywhere is another matter entirely.

You can turn off the overly bright lights. There are four of them, after all.

(Oh yeah, I went there. Picard-style!)


...Well, yes, that's what I said in my post before that. ^_^ I'm saying you already debunked Aveline as a romance option for the player character.

Yes. I can weedle everyone now with innuendo and never follow through. 

My Hawke will love being a tease. :bandit:

But even after such a positive review I can't help but feel dissapointed, for the reason that the review basically confims one of my concerns i've had about this game, it says apart from a few trips to the deeproads and one trip to a Dalish camp the rest of your time is spent in Kirkwell, some probably wont mind this but for a person like me who likes exploring lots of new, diverse and interesting areas in games the fact that we will spend 90% (not an accurate percentage) of our time in the same city is a bit dissapointing. Who knows maybe with future expansions/DLC they'll expand this part of the World a little more and give us more places to visit.


First of all, thanks OP. I appreciate you scribing down what you thought was pertinent.

Second, I'm actually happy we'll be spending a lot of time in Kirkwall. I don't doubt that they made Kirkwall a large, diversive place.

In DAO, I never felt any motivation. I played because that was the point of the game. The only thing I developed attachments to were the companions. Why should I care about the Grey Wardens? They kidnapped me and held secrets from me, and then they died. I cared that Alistair cared. But the Wardens themselves were kind of meaningless to me.

When the darkspawn marched on Denerim, I didn't care about that, either. What was Denerim to me? The place where Marjolaine was. Where Arl Eamon's estate was. I did a few sidequests there. But I had no personal attachments to it. So when everyone was so shocked when Denerim was destroyed, I just shrugged and kept fighting. 

But, I imagine that spending ten years in the same place will help me develop an attachment to it. It will be my city, my home. That's where my friends are. That's where my family is. Any threat to it, is a threat to me. Which, if I'm to be the Champion, is a Good Thing.

i knew the game would be good, all the "dumbed down" naysayers were just scared of change.

I hope this is how it plays out, Saibh! :)

Dumbed down for some, streamlined for many. In the end, the cash speaks the truth.

It would be appalling if we couldn;t, given that we could flirt with almost every single person we met in DAO.

We couldn't always flirt effectively, but we could flirt.

Samara and Aveline seem to have more than a few things in common.

I am fascinating by the "you can bone anyone" comment. Especially after Aveline was confirmed to not be a romance option. Hm.

- Romantic options unconstrained, you meet a party member chances are you can "bone" them. his words not mine. Your siblings being the obvious exceptions.




Yay! I can "bone" Varric! How would he really know, though, if he only played as Male Hawke?

Or the reviewing player mistook the flirt lines as romance options.  We've been told several times that we'll have opportunities to flirt,  but as with Aveline we may be able to flirt aimlessly.   Perhaps this is to create a roleplaying situation that allows you to be a little like Zevran,  where you flirt with everything hit or miss,  serious or not...(or completely serious in a horndoggy sense).  :kissing:

Exciting read indeed and watching the playthrough only confirmed how fun and exciting Dragon Age II is (and will be for us when we finally get the game in its entirety aside from the upcoming demo).

Hah! I would love that, flirting with everything that moves.



Reminds me of The Bard's Tale :D

Like I don't need anything else to make me more excited.Great news that it did get such a high review and praise.I was worried about how the changes they made would be treated even though I liked the idea of them.
