Speaking of Dragon's Dogma, I'm noticing a lot of love for that game in the Cullen thread. Do most of you play on 360 or ps3?
I know Nikki and I are on 360Nikki, if you're gonna start playing again I'll have to give Vega some new gear
What's this? A new Cullenite?
Finally, time to get out my confetti! *throws tiny Cullen-shaped confetti*

Haha, I still have all that nice gear you gave him before!
Oh btw if you enter the Rift and don't see my old pawn, Arya, it's because my "alt" pawn Seel is there instead. He's usually a sorcerer but I think he's a ranger right now.
LOL As others have said, come on in, the water's fine! This is indeed our haven away from the haters, and you're not the only dude. Like Lola mentioned, it's a little quieter than normal. We hope once the DA:I news starts to flow again it'll pick up. In the meantime, grab some thread and stay a while.JerHopp wrote...
So here is where all the fun is?
Hey everyone, JerHopp here. Mostly I just lurk (is that even a word) the BSN but only the DA:I section. I recently watched some youtube videos about DAI and a couple of videos about Cullen. That guy fascinated me the more I watched YTvideos.
Once in a while you see a thread on the DA:I about this interesting character (is he gonna be in the next installment, fingers crossed), but where there are fans, you will also see a lot of haters. And frankly, I don't want to get in a heated discussion, which is what mostly happens on the BSN, right?.
And then I saw this thread:
I didn't know there was an entire thread about Cullen and his worshippers (is that the correct word in this context)
So? Is there room for another guy here? You all look like great people with great taste, to say the least:lol:
This is exactly my feeling. I mean, sure, DA isn't a Harlequin Romance. But the repeated message makes me feel like a degenerate for even enjoying the romances.KiddDaBeauty wrote...
Man, reading David say those things so often nowadays almost discourage me, even though I agree with what he's actually saying. I know the romances aren't the most important part. Heck, even if it's one of my most common topics to talk about, it's not even my single most beloved feature. But hearing "this is tertiary" so often does put a dampener on things. I'm probably overreacting.

Welcome JerHopp ... I piggy back R2's sentiments.
What we need is something weird and random to happen in BSN land to spike the punch here and get the party rolling again. I was looking for something quirky to post but lol'd when I saw this:
This! It's all well and good to say romance isn't the most important part, and I actually agree with that - but at this point the fact that there will be romance in the game is one of the few certainties we can actually base our speculation upon. Aside from going the next few months without discussing the game at all, it's only logical that romance will be a topic of discussion because it's one of the few things we know about for certain.Elfman wrote...
Meh, I'll stop talking about the romances the minute they confirm something else about the game.

Yeah. Like, they could confirm Cullen or something. I'm sure that would stop us from talking about-...Elfman wrote...

Finally finished watching Lola's DnD. Loved it, can't wait for the next one. I see now why MMG is so desperately trying to organise a game.

Yay, thanks for sharing the link to the playerhandbook MMG! *cuddles it and starts reading in a corner*
And the overly 'romances are not the most important thing!' rants are making me feel quite uncomfortable too, to be honest... Of course they are not the most important, but I DO like them a lot... It is a cool asset that gives the companions and roleplay a bit of extra depth and makes it all more... humane, realistic? I understand that not every character is going to fall in love with the PC (realism here), and I applaud the fact that Bioware also includes bi- and homosexual options instead of just heterosexual. I'm a white heterosexual female, but hey: it's cool that those who aren't also get to play the same in the way they like! I'm already glad to be able to play as a female protanogist without being forced to wear bikinimail...
But of course I also can understand were the devs are coming from... I just like to defend that little piece of extra gameplay that makes the bioware games stand out, for me. And for those who dare to call dragon age a 'dating-sim'... go play the sims, please, or second life... some actual sandboxgames where you can do whatever you want 24/7... I've got a 50+ hours story to play with perhaps 1 hour of totally 100% optional romance in it, ktnxbai... To be honest, I consider that to be on the same childish level as the old Fox-issue with calling Mass Effect a p0rn-sim for the totally optional 10 seconds of alien side-boob in a 50+ hours game... seriously? Learn to use the internet... *starts humming the 'internet is for porn' song*
ok ok, /endrant... I just get so tired of the extremists...

Hmm, how should I say it: for me, the romances are really important, but is for me part of the package: if the romance were superb, but the story/gameplay would suck, than I still would not like it (which is for example the problem I have with Mass Effect). But are the romances high on my priority list? You bet! And I would also totally pay extra for more romance/quality time content.Scr0ll wrote...
Oh that would probably be fans like me. The romances are the most important part for me. (Not the only part, but I rank them prio 1.)
Meh! I used to think DG was the king of romances since he was the first to add them to a BioWare game and because he seemed to take it seriously enough to perform research on what specific fans wanted (Baldur's Gate and Alistair). I couldn't care less what he thinks about the romance fans nowadays. He is clearly not the king any longer and seems to love butting heads with fans. (Though Kudos to him for talking to fans on his private channels!)
I am not ashamed about the fact that the romances are the special part about BW games that make me love them so much. There is no other game studio that can match BW level of writing. I can truly say that I would not be so interested in DAI if they cut the romances. I would probably play, but I would not be invested in my char that much. So even if the romances are not the most important part for BW, they are for me.
I am also not ashamed of saying that I would pay a lot of money for a romance/hangout DLC or any extra content that deals with companions. *THROWS MONEY AT SCREEN*
Of course, some people are never satisfied, but that is for each and every aspect of the game...
