I'm for Option 1. But... but... The trolls will find us more easily. That's my only concern.

I am hoping for the tender and romantic style of relationship myself. With a bit of sexy raunch thrown in here and there of course.

 

I hope so too. I don't want it to be pure and chaste or anything, but I want the Inquisitor to have the opportunity to make it clearly more than just a fling, too.

Option 1, better to have a new thread and have this one as a haven.

I've decided to share this because I can and it seems to fit right now.

I love this song. Buffy had some great music.  :D

I think that's a good point too. That's why you keep it here and it can always be a haven you come back to. You don't know who you're going to run into on the new forum. Could bring a lot of good new users or bad.

It was "confirmed" by a magazine, but the same article also included some pretty significant incorrect information so the whole thing is somewhat suspect. I don't consider anyone confirmed till we hear it from Bioware.


Yes, I remember one of the magazines got information about game locations blatantly wrong. Go-go fact checking! :eyeroll:

What strikes me as odd is that the panel would confirm Cullen as an LI without making any kind of addendum or clarification if he's an LI but not a companion... if only because it's not something this IP has done before. You'd think they'd take into account that fans present at PAX may not be as a heavily exposed to speculation/news/leaks as we forums goers (a small percentage of game players over all, I believe) and prone to naturally equate LI = Companion, as has been the case for the past two games.

Perhaps that's purely wishful thinking on my part! But you'd think something like a new style of romance would be a confirmation they'd hold of on until they could confirm/discuss it in its entirety, not just revealing a name without proper context.

exactly.

 

I'm just..idk...i like to kick azz and save the world and not tolerate any foolishness in my PT's, but at heart I'm still very much a Romantic.

 

I think BW goes w/the idea that this female char. is a woman that knows what she wants and is not afraid to go after it. Which is awesome. But... I hope the romances grow more so than jump in.

That is a very good point, and is probably the strongest point I've heard in favor of Cullen being a companion.  :lol:

okay, but we can't be scared of sum friggin trolls. or worried that they will change the vibe of the thread. i mean, cuz then they win.

 

eff 'em.

 

and actually folks around here have been pretty cool abt it over all. So, if we do decide to go ahead w/the new thread---i think it'll be just fine.

I really liked the Alistair romance--among many reasons--for the illusion of growth it provided. There were lil flirts scattered abt in the dialogue. Fun lil things, but the romance was def paced out.

 

I think they're using a sim approach this time.

There's actually zero reasons to be upset about trolls now that we have the ignore function.

I'd only be upset with trolls if they somehow get this thread closed down. Then, there will be hell to pay.

The civility the BSN has expressed over these LI announcements is completely surprising to me. There's... No outcry at all really. 

 

I expected multiple threads of gnashing teeth claiming that BW is dooming itself for these choices forever and they'll boycott the game or something.

I said I thought it should be moved. I don't think I've changed my mind. Now I think I'm riding the fence. Because I'm an indecisive libra.
 
Honestly though, if a new one's made, I'd probably still mainly stick around here.


I'm an indecisive libra, as well. I don't want to post on two threads and keep up with both. It's hard enough keeping up with this one because I only have my iPhone to use. So, no matter what I guess I'll just stay exclusive to this thread.

So here is an odd question. I dare not venture much outside of this thread. But I wonder, how many complaint threads have been created to squawk about Cullen's confirmed LI position and to complain about the possibility of him being a companion.

None, really.

 

Spoiler

 

Not that I'm not pleased but...damn! Yay!

 

As for moving the thread, I figure it's been decided but here's my take: wait until **** calms down, wait until Jessica gives the go. Until then, we'll stay cozy in our cave.

I'm thinking they'll save their energy for when the last companion is announced/known and their favorite didn't make the cut, heh

Will they actually announce all the companions before the game launches?  I can't remember if they did with DA2...

 

ETA: Also, I'm totally game for a new thread, as I get so lost trying to catch up if I miss a few days...

i can understand wondering abt the finer details of it all these days, tho. As far as Cullen being LI, buuuut is he a Companion, too?

 

After the whole magazine thing. Everybody was all happy. Then it was godawfully wrong on so many things. Then Ellis tweets those tweets. And everybody was all happy. Then they came in and tried to rein things in a bit.

 

Then--what, the next day was it?--Bam! Cullen is LI, B!tches! That's right. You heard me!"

 

me: "...wait...what? .....is it real now?"

 

a lil whiplash here

I think they did from what I heard there was some backlash when people found out Aveline couldn't be romanced. I'm not 100% though, I wasn't around here back then.

With DA2 we knew them all. Not necessarily personalities. Sebastian was the last one, just a couple weeks before launch.
