With that bit of unpleasantness behind us...

Here is another potential Desire Demon design

Image IPB

A bit too anime-esque for Dragon Age. Although it wouldn't be too out of place in Dragon Age 2...

....ack. Stop with the sexy male desire demons. I feel all pure being able to resist all the demons in the game because they're ridiculously sexualized females and don't appeal to me or they're ugly male monsters (...this sounds like some weird psych test). But if I actually was tempted by a desire demon because it was actually sexy? D: That'd....ruin my reputation of just giving a derisive snort that the demons think their offers actually are tempting!

Baby steps. Seriously - imo complaining over petty things like this just makes you look petty, demanding and unappreciatve. Give some people an ince and they demand a mile.

Everybody knows women don't feel sexual desire.

She's hot. I'd support this as an addition to the desire spirit line up.

LOL, that's anime for you!

When you think about it though, an androgynous desire demon would make more sense...

That was, in fact, the original concept. Sadly, it was a bit more difficult to convey without the model looking vaguely prepubescent-- which we wanted to avoid.

To the OP: the gay xxx division is that way -->

Also, why not focus on the majority of the players? What about lesbian players, this at least hetero ánd lesbian centrism. Why spend loads of resources on a minority (oke this is twice same argument)? Why bother at all, are you craving so badly that you have to have your kicks from a computergame? Cause it's all fine and dandy that there are gay people in this world and I wish them all the best, but most people are still heterosexual, having some gayness is a nice perk, but it isn't something we should spend so much attention on. Just be gay and live with it.

But but but... how would male desire demons fit into DA2's core concept? Wouldn't they be mor a case of awesome-levers instead of -buttons?

Aaaand this is the sort of privileged, insensitive argument that makes me think we should go ahead and make a male version of the demon regardless of them not really being all about sex.

If this is what these silly complaints are driving you towards then I support more complaints, more! :happy:

I agree, please don't cater to us nasty gay people!  Oppress us, persecute us!

Dude... come on... that poster's not even out of line in saying that.  Isn't it enough that every companion is bisexual?  That the Blooming Rose is like 90% male prostitutes?  That the gay romances seem to be far deeper experiences than the straight ones (meaning, one of the two choices for a male PC is a promiscuous woman who tries to get with Zevran right in front of you... thanks)?  Do we really need scantily clad or even naked male demons on top of all that?

Now look, I have no problem with homosexuals, but honestly, let's not go crazy here... there's a such thing as too much.  This isn't even about equality anymore... DA2 is totally biased towards homosexuality in terms of quality romantic experiences.  Now you're just piling on the pain... almost punishing people for being straight.

Yay! Thank you Tripedius! (I mean thank you for inadvertently swaying Mr. Gaider.) I wants a male desire demon. (*I wish*) :)

:blink: Punishing straight people...?  And a male desire demon would be punishing straight people HOW exactly?  What if a straight woman were to see a lovely male demon before her instead of a voluptuous female demon?  Wouldn't that be catering to the heterosexual crowd as well?

Uh-huh.

Ignoring the fact that I wasn't actually serious about the male desire demon, let me point out that the game is in no way biased towards homosexuality. I hate constantly bringing up the word privilege, but when it applies so well it's hard not to use. Someone else getting more does not equate to you getting less, simply because you're accustomed to having it all to yourself. I get that not everyone digs the romance options-- really that's always going to be the case-- but you needn't feel so threatened you see an agenda behind it.

Because, yes, God forbid there be a scantily-clad, sexualized male demon existing as a counterpart to the scantily-clad, sexualized female demon. I mean, objectifying men as well as women? Whoa! Let's not get crazy or anything. There might be someone out there who finds that attractive-- and by that I mean a man, because what straight women want is irrelevant-- and that would be gay.

Sorry, but I'm not sure the argument you're making is the one you think it is.
