Hah yeah except I've played a bit of it both ways and actually like the direction they both have gone! For me, it's hard to choose because I want to follow *both* through to their conclusion. I guess I have to just have another playthrough!

Follow the friend path now and hope for the rivalmance to be fixed when you go that route?  Bonus!

@Kawamura  I really enjoyed Kaidan too.  He is/was... normal but not too boring.  His past story was interesting too and you saw that there were difficulties but he worked with them.

Oh damn it, I just can't leave this thread XD!! It's just so much fun to see people loving something (someone in this case) that I love, too.

Yeah, especially since there's a lot of OMG STAB ANDERS elsewhere in the forums.  Not that it's not justified; there are very good reasons for knifing him.  But I can't do it--those sad abomination eyes are too irresistable.

I got the "Anders is totally crazy, MWAHAHAHAHA" scene at 100 rivalry too. I guess it's a bug! Not a bad one, for once, as extra Anders, even completely off in crazypants land, is good Anders.

Honestly, that's what I like about him too. He's just a dude. Doin' his thing. He gets headaches, he had some crap happen in THE PAST, but it's cool, he made his peace with it.

P much.

That relationship was the most boring thing ever. He's gotten to his thirties, he's mellowed out, and he's right ready to become a boring DILF.

And I'm more than ready to let him.

Exactly.  I hope he and Shepard can have a happy ending.  After the psychotic heartbreak that is Anders and Hawke, I just want to see Kaidan and Shepard live out the rest of their days in happy boredom.  Being normal... reading the newspaper over breakfast and having lots of sex.

Replace Kaidan with Garrus, and I'm right there with you.  I miss my nice, sane ME LIs.  

Not that I wouldn't love for my Hawke and Anders to live happily ever after, but something tells me that the lifespans of a maleficar Champion-turned-fugitive and a Grey Warden-turned-abomination revolutionary are a bit on the short side.

Occassionally being all, "Man, remember when we totally saved everyone that exists? That was great. Want some toast?"

Yes, so many hatred for Anders T_T 
At my very first playthrough I also stabbed Anders at the back, but then I remembered that I swore to myself I would burn down Kirkwall in order to save him or to be with him before DA2 released (yes, I was already obssessed with Anders from DA:A). So after it, I've never stabbed him .. currently romancing him, too (in 4th playthrough now).

Haha, my husband is an atheist too (I am not, omg rivalry points!) but he was still pretty "Dude! We do not blow up Chantries for our cause!" at the end. And then hemmed and hawed and was finally like, "Aw man, I can't stab you, just get the hell out of here." And then was all "Dammit, now I don't have a HEALER" as Bethany ate it in the Deep Roads. Imagine his surprise when he sided with the mages and Anders showed back up!

I was all "He wants to heeeeeeeelp because you're his paaaaaaaaal! And also probably has a crush on you. Just a head's up."

I'm not sure if he's going more or less pro-mage as he makes his way through subsequent playthroughs, I should ask!

He doesn't play medieval RPGs, he sticks with Fallout and Mass Effect.  Alas, he tends to play good guys that aren't afraid to kill all the douchebags.  Innocent or not, he killed an entire building of humans because they were being elitist jerks and their leader wanted my bf to kill a whole bunch of poor ghouls.  I swear, he took PLEASURE out of running around the ritzy place killing everyone in sight.  Scary!

He does seem to have a good grasp on the difference between reality and fiction... but if JUSTICE existed for reals, I wouldn't advise him to take my boyfriend as host.  VENGEANCE would totally ensue.

[MelfinaofOutlawStar]

Personally Kaiden(Carth) is too boring and Anders is two whiny with a side of nuts

Garrus is the ideal mate.

[DeaHamlet]

Kaidan is soooooooooooo boring.

I went with the assassin, Thane. Except he's totally going to be dead by ME3 and I'm going to be in mourning. *sigh*
It was tough between Garrus and Thane, tough one. In the end Garrus was totally my best pal and I was afraid of his... ahem... claw hammer. LOLz.

Edit: Just to add, maybe renegade Shepard will be all over Garrus.  Since she likes it rough.
One of these days my bad sex jokes will get me banned.

God, Fallout 3/Vegas. That's one game I've wasted half my life in. No love interests but it doesn't matter. Boone is enough. Boone is enough.

"Hey Boone, did you see that rad scorpion the other day?"
*picks a fiend off an inch from your right shoulder*
"I like our talks."

Get out of my brain! I was just thinking that! :: hugs Magaloo ::

I'm thinking my next playthrough after this will be a femHawke, but I haven't decided who to romance. It's a ways off, anyway, as I realized how much DLC for DA:O and ME2 that I haven't gotten through. :: cackle :: 

(and I think my LOTRO peeps are wondering where I went, I'm wondering if after this many years saying "Uh, Bioware?" is enough to explain?)

Ya'll can guess my opinion on Kaidan, it's in the sig. I run the Kaidan Alenko fanlisting. I Kaidan. I didn't romance anyone in ME2.

(and New Vegas is also on the list to play for me, my husband is bugging me to play it!)

I felt sorry for Thane but unforunately on all of my playthroughs I banged Garrus.

What can I say, ribbed for Shepard's pleasure.

I like Arcade.

He's like a way smarter, way more interesting, slightly mor socially adept version of me.

I liked Garrus, but I think his crippling addiction to calibrations is driving a wedge into his relationship with Shepard.

HAHAHA.  You know what, renegade Shepard is so going for Garrus.  She can take it, she's a tough girl.  She might even like it, LMAO

That is SO going to come back to bite him in the ass in ME3. He and my Shepard are adorkable together, but she remembers being snubbed for Calibrations. ... she remembers<_<

Why not both?

Well, I like both.

Personally, I like Arcade getting paired off with older men. Daddy issues again? Yes, I think so.

Just found this jewel over at DA. You can see the image profile here.

Edit: Actually want to add this one too even though Fenris is in the foreground :happy:

Ah, love triangle, how we adore thee.

Uh-oh. I may have just fallen in love with you a little. Arcade is the best.

I also have a weakness for Cass, but only because her mouth puts mine to shame and she and the Courier continue to kick ass together if you take care of her business. 

And I...can't get excited about Kaidan. Of course, I was smitten with Garrus from the beginning and, if we can grade LIs on a curve according to the character who gets them and the company they keep, he's pretty normal. 

Still, Anders. He didn't end up where I thought he would, but it's ok. I still love him and all the depth they managed to give him when it seemed in Awakening that he might always keep that part of him hidden. Also, Happy Alternative Anders is what fanfic is for, so I'll just deal.

[DragonRacer]

Random thought, and if this has already been discussed to death, feel free to tell me to go get a nice, big cup of STFU...

But I'm curious, out of all us Anders-mancers, how many prefer a mage Hawke vs non-mage Hawke? As much insane amount of fun as playing a mage is this time around (and as sexy as the battle animations for them are... squee!), I really feel more of a "kinship" (I guess you could say) with non-mage Hawke being all Mage Protector (or Apostates' Aegis, if you will). Can't decide if my ultimate canon Hawke will be a rogue or a 2H warrior, but she's definitely fiercely protective of her sister and crazypants boyfriend.

Dunno. Just really rings right to see an enemy beeline for Anders and scything my way between them, all like "Get your hands off him, you damn, dirty darkspawn!" or raising my hackles whenever templars are nearby... "If you want him, come and claim him!" Rawr. 

And totally missed out on the convo about 30 pages back (can't keep up with this thread), but I'll raise my hand as being another of the one-LI per playthrough group. And much like leggywillow, my first Lady Hawke was the sarcastic, living-in-her-own-little-world Cloud Cuckoolander. Although, given her rather caustic attitude towards templars and "violence seems to answer everything" line of thinking, she struck me a lot as being the Hancock of Kirkwall. Sarcastic, rough-around-the-edges, probably fairly inebriated a lot of times, but ultimately good at heart. LOL There were definitely lines from that movie I could hear her saying adapted versions of...

Meredith: Rawr rawr stomp stomp hiss you can't always be there to protect your little apostate boyfriend hiss rawr...
Lady Hawke: What did you call him?
Meredith: Little apostate boyfriend snarl hiss...
Lady Hawke: (leans in close) Call him an apostate one more time...
Meredith: Apostate.
Lady Hawke: *flips a table*

Or the incredibly annoying amount of blood mages...

Grace: Rawr hiss no matter what you do I'll hate you and kidnap a loved one later rawr hiss snarl...
Lady Hawke: If you don't give yourselves up quietly, I swear to the Maker, your head is going up his ****, his head is going up your ****, and you drew the short stick, cause your head is going up my ****!
