In DA2, if you press the heart button, you automatically start a romance! You can't have a friendly flirt with a friend, because the game doesn't let you do that. Hawke says his cringe-worthy pick up line, and it's done. The companion now wants you, unless you press the broken heart button. You can never have a friendly flirt, which is just incredibly unrealistic. And I never used gifts in origins, because that took me out of the experience.
Eh?
I've flirted with companions in DAII without having to press the broken heart icon to get them off me while I actually pursued the companion I wanted. Unlike in DAO where an unromanced Leliana biatched at me for "cheating" on her with Alistair!
And snarky Hawke's flirting is made of WIN!
I pressed the heart icon once for Merrill thinking it would be a friendly flirt, but instead It took us straight to the bedroom! I can't even stop the sex just before we get into bed shouting "this isn't right", the game forces the player into the sex scene. It makes me feel like my Hawke used Merrill for sex.
Actually, that does not happen. Pressing the heart icon never leads directly to the bedroom unless you've flirted with her a lot more before and she comes to visit you, to confess her feelings. I've played the game too many times to fall for that, sorry.

But hey, post a video of it, I'd like to see that. Maybe then I'll believe it actually happened.

I just read the manual and, to me, it just says that the heart icon means flirty. I flirted with Merrill throughout the whole game thinking it was just playful flirting. Some men with any kind of social capability who have flirted with woman, but didn't actually want to get in their bed, know what I'm talking about. I thought it was just playful, fun flirting. People tell me "Oh, you shouldn't have used the heart, the heart means you want to pursue a romantic interest!" Why? People can be flirty without actually wanting love or sex.

This is a GAME. A Bioware game! Have you ever flirted with Leliana and received her jealousy talks if you dare to romance someone else?
Yeesh!

It didn't really bother me that much that I couldn't talk to my companions whenever I wanted. Would I have preferred to talk at my convenience? Yes.
Hopefully if Bioware goes back to the "talk at will" conversations they can disable them when you're not in party camp. Saves the awkward experience of Alistair trying to give a rose to you when you're covered in blood in the middle of an abomination-ridden tower. Ahem.

I wish the DAO camp had been a little more active: Alistair playing with his golem dolls, Wynne darning a sock, Shale stomping a pigeon, whatever.

My warden was an atheist. I think it would have got on his nerves if he had kept hearing "The maker is so smart, the maker is so funny. I love the maker!".

The problem I had with the party
camp in DA: O was the same as what Cutlass Jack mentioned--you could
easily burn through all of Alistair's conversations before the game is
even over--In my second playthrough, I think I got him to 100% right
after we did the mage tower...Abispa wrote...
The camp scene? I miss it only for the ease of inventory management. I realize that it was a necessary feature for DA:O (the first game in a series) since it allowed you learn about he entire history of Thedas civilization while standing mute around a campfire, but it really did bother me (as others have mentioned) that you could basically talk away 50 to 75% of a character's interactions in one sitting...
.
Okay, I understand where both of you are coming from on the convos, gifts and burning through them too fast. But the simple solution is don't do it. You had control over whether you bought them off with gifts, or burned through every convo possibility or made them love you right away. In DA2 that power was taken away from me and got done for me. I am not an infant. If I burned through convos or bribed them into liking me, well that was my perogative, wasn't it? Just because you could,doesn't mean you should. But having the power to decide that is better imho than holding my friggin' hand. I was in control over whether my convos, or relationships went too fast or not. I don't need the devs at BioWare to decide that for me, thanks.
And I did love camp as a way to let off the steam from the angsty angst. But it wouldn't work in Kirkwall so much. So, I can see them having their own places. A comprimise might be to have them with their own places (and you can visit them anytime, talk to them any time), and a couple of cut away meetings say at the Hanged Man where they have all gotten together to meet with each other and where Hawke can meet them.
What erynnar said... don't do it if you don't like it! I really hate that I can't get any convos from my companions except when quest related. Frankly, it's the reason I'm writing this now rather than playing the game.
I keep clicking on the companions (don't really know why

Still, a central location to work with inventories and talk to people would have been nice. The entire party should have spent time at the Hanged Man at night or something.
Making things you have to do a lot painless is always a good thing, I highly approve of the mail-order style crafting vs. having to do it yourself or have a party member do it.
