I bought Dragon Age 2 on a whim at a discount store and it preceded to sit on my coffee table for months before I played it. I've now been playing it for the last month straight. I never played or heard of DA:O and didn't look online for any spoilers. I like to run through a game on my own first, then check around online for info.
When I met Anders in the clinic, I flirted with him immediately. A doctor who loves cats and has a sexy accent? Yes, please. But all he had to say was that he would "hurt" me and not to get involved so I stopped looking at him as a love interest. Enter broody elf with yet another sexy voice and tattoos who chuckles at my flirting, and I was all over it. I kept Anders with me most of the time because I liked his party banter, especially with Fenris, and healers are always handy. I found his incessant talk of the plight of the mages tedious and began to think of him as being pretty whiney.
As the game progressed and he became more active in the mage underground, I respected him a bit more. At least he was doing something to help out the cause he was always talking about.
After the quest where he tricked me into helping him gather stuff for something he wouldn't tell me about, I forgot all about it. I was more worried about my elf and all the other side quests. The Qunari fascinated me and I was upset at having to kill the Arishok (I thought we were friends! Lol
)When the ending got close and Anders blew up the Chantry, I lost it
I jumped off the couch and ran to where my husband was yelling, "HOLY F@$#, Anders blew up the f@$#ing Chantry! Just blew it up!", while laughing hysterically. My husband just asked what a Chantry was and I went back to my game.When all my companions told me to kill Anders, including Anders, I became ridiculously attracted to him
This poor guy. He had tried so hard to help the mages and in the end he came to realize that the only way to bring real change was this extreme measure. What I heard as whining before was really serious, passionate, and determined to bring about the end of the mages being locked up and used as, essentially, slaves.So I didn't kill him, had him join me, and decided that my next play through, he would be my lover. I still couldn't bring myself to not romance Fenris, so I broke it off with Anders after our love scene, which was completely sweet and endearing. Previously,I had accidentally slept with Merrill while trying to be nice to her and when I broke out off with her, all I said was that it was a fling and she shouldn't read into it. Breaking it off with Anders, I told him he was bad in bed x.x I felt like the biggest jerk in the world. He was so hurt. I felt so guilty that I couldn't even finish that play through and started another one.
So now I've got Anders living with me and I feel good about it <3 I feel better leaving Fenris to be by himself since he left me anyway.
Just had to share my story with others who, for your own reasons, fell for Anders.
Retour en haut
Frankly, the mabari pet aspect already got boring in DA:O for me so a cat would've been a nice change. Even a kitty who sneaks into the estate and lives there so when Anders is in there and you click it, there could be an adorable cutscene. :happy: Better than the mabari scenes. But I suppose I'm more of a cat person. Tie-ins to characters and the past history make a story stronger, imho.
I can imagine what they'd look like: Merrill would be a black cat with huge, green eyes, Varric would be a small tabby cat, Aveline would be big and orange, Fenris would be a grumpy, grey cat, and Isabela would be a fluffy, white cat.
BTW I WANT THE ANDERS DOLL THAT HE HAS! NAO! QQ
