Kinda Strange thing happoned with Isabela, in the begining the 2nd act she showed up in my home and we had a night of beding, after that she gave me an item called "threads of the burning sea" or something like that, but I cant find it anywhere in invintory, or the Journal. this a bug or was I mistaken?

Sounds like it might be one of her armor mods.  Does she actually say in dialogue "Here's a gift" or just after bedding her you got it?

Agreed, my first (mage) playthrough I Romanced Anders.

[stephen1493]

I romanced Merril and found it disappointing. (I still loved the game nonetheless) I can't be sure if this holds true for all accounts, but it much felt like all I had to do was sleep with her and then wait for the game to be over.

The companion quest didn't feel like it built off that at all, and the allusions towards our romance  couldn't have been more disappointing. The only thing that comes to mind is when Merril called me some dalish word, Anders saying we shouldn't be dating, and Varric's final tack on. I would have loved an affection option like in the party camp in DA:O.

Maybe if there was a feature, or some kind of "minor" quest to make them feel more comfortable in the mansion (something that could have been done for any LI) I would have been more content with how it was set up the way it was, but as of now... all I am is kind of disapointed.

P.S.- All I've seen was the romance with Merrill, if the other LI's had more substance I would appreciate a mention.

P.S.S- I am fully aware that Bioware games aren't dating similators, but this was a feature I really enjoyed in DA:O, and I'm kind of sad to see it take a step backwards

I romanced Anders. I would have liked a steamier bedroom scene, and more dialogue (I think he had two things he says to you throughout when you click on him) and a chance to hug and kiss him once in awhile when you are home. I always liked the way I could go up to Alistair and get a kiss. I missed that a lot in this game.

Totally agree.
After killings hoards of darkspawn, I want some action - dammit.

I was disappointed that there wasnt a whole lot of that in here. It's not a "dating simulator" as the above post mentioned but an impact to the story as a whole. People, like myself, get totally wrapped up in the story and the romance just makes it all the real.

Im gonna miss it dearly....

Cant wait for a toolset!

Question to every fans of romances... If you had the choice, which character would you like to date? Only the characters that are NOT romance-able. Bethany and Carver are scratched from this question. I'd love a romance with Felicia Day's character in the upcoming DA webseries... and probably a little flirt with Flemeth.

[Zhilara]

You know, when I played Awakening, I always wanted Anders and Nathaniel.......

I feel like I got teased in DA2.

[kellyofthemagi]

So why did I catch love dialoug with Sebastian If he's not? What a tease!

[kellyofthemagi]

Bad Bioware bunch of teasers.

[Zhilara]

He technically 'is' a LI. With some limitations......

Bioware sure does love to tease......

[Gerudan]

Has anyone had a rival LI? I would like to know, how that plays out.

I fully agree. Also romanced Merril, and though the overall relationship was sweet, it lacked substance. Or even allusion. I figured a shemlan woman dating a banished Dalish apostate would come with some sort of, you know, consequence. It didn't. And we were together for three years, but that was no big deal. Anytime I wanted to talk with her, all I got was, "I think somebody's watching me."

It just ruins the immersion when not much happens on account of your choice. You're apparently the most important person in the city, yet no one cares who you've been sharing a bed with for three years? If only IRL celebrities had it so easy. The subjects of cross-racial and lesbian relationships and what they mean in this fictional soceity weren't addressed at all, nor was the idea of having an heir, or how a marriage could work, if it was necessary, what Dalish customs were and how they conflicted with humans'...

There is SO much meat there to expand a romance and make it something meaningful. Instead we got "moving in" and a kiss at the end. Granted, I liked the thought behind a goodbye kiss, but it didn't carry much weight because the results of your chosen mate didn't carry much either. There was no immersion.

What are the limitations with Sebastian ? I already played through once and li'd with Anders. So this play through i was going to try Sebatian but didn't want to waste my time if it doesn't work.

I rivaled Fenris and thought it was one of the best BioWare romances, in spite of so few scenes. I also played a mage, so he had lots of reason to feel conflicted. Loved it.

I've seen videos and it appears it's not very different if you Friendship romance him, I just thought the dynamic was better with the rivalry.

I'm annoyed that you can't break-up with someone. I wanted Hawke to go through a few characters, but it seems like once you sleep with anyone but Isabella, you can't even flirt with any other characters. Plus, it was a lot easier to hook up with Anders than the other characters so it almost happened without my even intending it.

[wetnasty]

I loved the love interests but yes. More ~hot and heavy~ passion would be nice. I'd still like NPC romances though, that maybe they're not playable, but you can still romance them into the ending. Unless I'm missing something. Idk, I felt like the romance in DA2 was something that DA definitely went in the RIGHT direction for. It did exactly what it was meant to, leave me wanting more~

Really? Because I was given like time after time to break up with Anders. But I just kept going "OK I GET IT YOU'RE CRAZY, BUT I STILL WANNA BANG YOU."

I managed to flirt with everyone even after sleeping with Fenris. Granted, the Fenris romance progressed in an odd way that it left a lot of room for other options. I could even have slept with Anders after sleeping with Fenris, but I didn't care to. Not sure what that would've done to Fenris' romance, but since your only options with Anders are 'I love you forever!' or 'I just used you for sex', I imagine it would break the Fenris romance unless you ended it with Anders directly after.

I even got Anders to try to talk me out of it with Fenris at the beginning of his Act II quest, but after I sided with Fenris he never spoke of it again. It's a shame, I was hoping I could play them against each other until one of them exploded at the other (because I'm evil like that), but all I got was Anders snidely making comments about Fenris being an animal. (I'm not sure where that came from. Maybe he's racist now on top of everything else?)

I tried flirting with Sebastian while in the Fenris romance, but that didn't go anywhere. I'm wondering if that's really a romance or if it's like flirting with Aveline.

[AlexXIV]

Well I have not tried all LIs yet. I had trouble finding a male for my Lady Hawke though. Merril was cute as expected, Isabella hot as expected. I can't get into Fenris, just don't like him and Anders, well Anders screwed up big time so he is out either. I am actually thinking about the prince DLC right now because that's probably he only way my Hawke can get a satisfying non-bi relationship.

[ThatDancingTurian]

I've been wondering.. Is it even possible to rivalry romance Anders? I don't even know how he could romance someone with rivalry, he sees the world in such an absolute. It seems like anyone who doesn't agree with him is a horrible person who deserves to die.

[MageTarot]

My male rogue romanced Anders. The ability to do so pleasantly surprised me, since he commented on how 'pretty' Velanna was when she joined the party in DA: Awakening (he also mentioned that one of the things he wanted once he found his freedom was 'a pretty girl). I thought maybe the whole Justice thing had something to do with this walk on the wild side, but that wasn't the case since Anders said that Justice didn't approve of the romance, calling it "a distraction."

Am I complaining? Not on your life.
Boy howdy, when Anders practically lunged at my rogue M!Hawke and planted a couple of wet, sloppy ones on him my jaw dropped open. I think I did a happy dance. I don't remember.

Oh, and the "(pants)" dialogue description during that scene? Bonus!!

[elikal71]

Why again were both gay romance options with psychos again?

Seeing how essentially all romance options ended in disasters or where with psychos, I vow to myself hereby never ever again to follow a romance plot in a Bioware game again. (cough, SWTOR, cough)

I just NEVER EVER want to experience something like with Anders EVER again!

I liked Isabella. Other than that... rest are crazy... Isabella was something off a crazy in a good way, was refreshing really

[Danni Rand]

I do wish you could interact with your li more. I did the Anders romance with my FemHawke, and I wish that I could have given him a severe talking to after the quest where you distract the Grand Cleric. At the time I had no idea what it was he had done exactly, but I had a bad feeling about it and I was mad at him for lying to me and for blackmailing me into helping him ("If you loved me, you'd help me." What a jerk).

Strangely enough, even after all of that, I still like him. I miss the old Awakening Anders something fierce, but I don't hate what they did with him. I came very close to dumping him in the end, but I wanted to complete the romance so I ended up running off with him. Oh well. Now that I have a better idea of what a romance with him entails, I'll be able to make a character who could be happier with him. Or one that will dump his dumb ass.

I'm trying out the Fenris romance this playthrough, but I'm scared he'll betray me in the end because I'm going to side with the mages...

Just for the record: ALL was her fault. She did not give the Relic to the Arishok. If the Arishock would not have killed the Viscomte, the entire situation wouldn't have escalated as it were. So it is all Isabellas selfishness that created a World War.
