LOL The Case for Cullen is that he shall appear in the game. I believe this without a doubt. It's the degree of his role that I question. Companion and LI seem like longshots to me, therefore I shall not raise my hopes too high. Important NPC is where I shall continue to place my bet  (and continue to prepare my one-sided courting strategies...).

I'm with ya there R2! It's gonna be the Gallows stare off all over again 

LOL This gave me a visceral flashback of all the time I spent next to him waiting for him to look at me, cheeky sod.

Here's what I think: 

For awhile there I was really scared the male LIs would be Varric and Elfy McSmuggins/Dorian. But it just occurred to me now: BW would not make a dwarf and an elf our only male LIs.

So to me these are the possibilities:

1. Grey Warden guy is a LI. I would put his chances at 40%. He is at least in his 50s. And yes although everyone in THIS thread would have NO problem romancing a silver fox such as himself, I don't know if the team would go there. In his favor: dev comments that the LI would not be "tradiaionally" attractive.

2. Cullen is a LI. So if Cullen is a companion, his chances are 95%. But since IMO his chances of being a companion are about 30% right now, that significantly lowers his chances at being a LI, obviously. 

3. Dorian is not Elfy McSmuggins. If Dorian is a human male mage, then it's possible he is our human LI. However, that means BW are giving us a dwarf/ef and a mage for LI. They did this with DA2 and I think some people weren't happy with how "wimpy" the male LIs were (to put it nicely). Some fans want a manly warrior type. 

4. There is a previously unreleased, un-hinted at male human companion.

So those are my thoughts  what y'all think?

When you lay it out like that, it makes me wonder if we'll be getting more than just the usual 2/2 romance options. That being said, there's no way they'd make the entire party romanceable, which leads me to think that they could be going for something a bit different this time... like party romances and non-party ones? I mean,  if we're getting these important-npcs that the devs have mentioned are very plot heavy (like Morrigan) then perhaps we'll be dealing with the likes of her (and whoever else) almost as much as the companions, in which case it could be possible that some of them may be romanceable too.

I wonder how much it will cost to pre-order, I never pre-ordered a game before but from what I've heard it can be pretty expensive

Pre-ordering is no more expensive than the game when it actually comes out. The only thing that would make pre-ordering more expensive is when you choose to get the collector's edition, like I plan to.

Oh I thought if u pre-order it was pretty much a given to get the collectors edition

Cassandra I think has been sort of almost pretty much confirmed as an LI...

What? In what way?? How? When? To my knowledge, she has not been confirmed at all, nor has it been hinted at (possible exception are the little heart designs in her armor.) We don't know at all whether or not she's a LI. Vivienne could also be one. Or Sera and a previously unknown female companion could be the LIs.

 I tend to agree with this assessment based on the numbers game. DG is known to be writing at least two companions, and two LIs. It's still a guess, but seems pretty likely, to me, that Cass therefore would fall in both groups.
(of course, if non-companions could be LIs, then all bets are off... )

Pretty much what R2 said. We don't know for absolute certain, of course, but playing the numbers game makes it seem like a very, very high probability, considering we know Mr. Gaider wrote two companions and that he wrote two of the romances. 

(There's also that character that wasn't his but he had to re-write, I suppose. But that still gives Cass a very, very, very high probability of being an LI.)

I'm definitely pre-ordering DAI. The info I've gotten from DAI, the way they seem to be approaching the game..hell, I might as well. I know I'm getting the game. A lil extra swag on top, too. Hell yeah. I love loot. And it's not that much more expensive if you get a Collector's Edition. I think it's like $20.00 bucks more? $80 instead of $60.

They also have regular pre-orders which I believe are the same price as the regular game, it's just...you reserve it earlier.

Pre order is just like law away. You put a lil down beforehand. Pay on it when you can. No biggie.

[rapscallioness]

We don't know for absolute certain that Cass is an LI, bit I mean..you know, c'mon. Cass is a friggin' LI.

There's no doubt in my mind abt that.

If only I had such feeling concerning my Cullen...*haughty sniff in DA Team's general direction*

Also what ever happened to Trident Guy? Fabulous Mustache Guy? I always thought he was the Dorian mentioned in the survey leak (assuming Dorian still exists)

If Dorian is a human male, then he could be/could've been Trident Guy. If that's true, though, I feel it seriously decreases his chances of being a LI. I know they said "not traditionally attractive," but I'm not sure if they'd go with downright ugly.

Same with Mustache Guy. 

Yeah, given that I could sum up those two gentlemen by the descriptors, "Mullet Man" and "Mustache Guy," their romanceability does not seem compelling.  LOL  But, they could indeed end up being companions. I still don't know if they're the same guy, or if one or both of them is Dorian. The Dorian *description* sounds intriguing. The visual representations of Mullet Man and Mustache Guy, not so much. 

Now, Mustache Guy with his overdramatic jazz hands could end up being an interesting character. I just hear in my head someone with an Antivan accent saying, "Santa Maria!" 

Beards and mustaches aren't personally my thing, but I didn't see flaily hands guy unattractive and far from 'all out ugly'.

I will admit that all this talk of who's 'completely ugly' and stuff is really uncomfortable for me and difficult for me not to read as all out offensive. I know we all have our personal preferences and the like, I myself have personal preferences for what I find asthetically pleasing, but to call someone, even if it's a character design, 'ugly' and unromancable is... um.... it has implications that whatever their personality might be isn't worth anything in that regard and that they're unworthy of love simply because they're not conventionally attractive. 

Sorry if I've offended anyone! I've just found it really uncomfortable everytime the 'baldness is so ugly, he needs hair' and 'ugh, mustache guy is so ugly' comments have come up. And I really don't want to duck out of this thread whenever romance discussion come up just so I can avoid reading that kind of thing.

A-and I'm not trying to say you shouldn't get to say what you personally like! I just mean there's ways to word what you personally prefer without it coming across offensively?

S-sorry.

Australia gets overcharged for games, so for me a collector's edition normally costs from $100 to $120. Good think I'm good at saving.

this is to adorable!

but why do you guys give up so much hope? Hell, why not Cullen? He's hawt. He's a Templar, maybe ex-Templar w/certain specific insight. We've never had a templar companion. Alistair doesn't count. He was only a recruit. Or was it only 6 months a Templar?

Either way, Cullen is a real Templar/ex-Templar. He's good looking. Would make a great LI. Has something to offer. Has story potential especially in DAI cuz of all that's going on.

To me, it would seem a wise choice to have Cullen as comp/LI. The character brings alot to the table.

absolutely save up. it's really not that much considering how long we have until it comes out. very doable. i would suggest, tho, if you're gonna save up, just go all for it and get a collector's edition.

treat yourself. you deserve it.

Oh, I definitely plan to get the collector's edition.

btw: a sexy man is a sexy man. bald, or hair. facial hair, or no. sexy is...that..intangible quality. i've met some men that from the surface one maybe would not think they were appealing, but sweet baby jesus, the sex appeal of their "Nature". it trumps all.

oh, that's right. i read your post abt that. i must have been thinking abt Agg.

yeah, I'm going Colector's Edition, too. Aww, yeah.

I thought Zevran was ugly. I also thought that Alistair was ugly, until he started flirting with me. But really, it depends on the character's personality for me.

[rapscallioness]

Hey Chanda! How's the baby? Are you getting any sleep yet? lol!

[rapscallioness]

tbh, i thought Zev was kinda ugly, too. well that's not quite true. he was alright. Alistair was kinda average to me. Anders is no looker, imo. Fenris is kinda cute, but overall, physically, not really my type.


Sooo, yeah, it def boils down to the personality. and the voice acting.

Now that I think abt it, in all honesty, I think Cullen is the first DA male char that I think is actually cute. lol!

edit: well, the DA2 Cullen. the DAO Cullen is...alright...
