The forum has, if anyone hasn't noticed yet, quite a few romance threads lately. Before anyone becomes angry, let me stress that this is not a thread meant to denounce anyone interested in romance, or to complain about the fact that so many people are interested in romance. Because that would be, well, kinda sorta really hypocritical of me (yes, I admit I am a  fan too).

I am honestly just curious--what makes the thought of romance in DA2 compelling for you? Is it the characters, the thought of romance in general?

Personally I loved the romances in DAO because it allowed for you to interact with the game world in a unique way. It was also part of what attracted me to the game (though the combat hooked me).  I'm hoping it will be the same for DA2. :)

Different teams. Why specifically, is only theories.


Different teams also means different interests. There's very few things we feel compelled we have to put into a game-- it requires someone on the team to be actively interested in including it. I know, on the forums, it seems like everyone thinks a developer needs a solid reason not to put something in a game... were content not expensive, that would be true. But it isn't, and while we would never expect fans to care about that, we certainly have to. So therefore you're only going to see things that individuals on that team are specifically interested in doign... and you're not going to see a lot of other things we'd like to include but just couldn't. We don't get our way all the time, either.
