Heh. I just had an odd thought. Suppose they give us more than 2 LIs per gender. If they really do have 10 companions, it wouldn't be too much of a reach if 6 were romanceable...
Wow, how sweet would that be?
Um, amazing. That would up replay value a ton, and I'd have so much trouble deliberating over which LI to choose.
I'm just glad that the DA team is usually better at romances than the ME team. Not like the content of the romance, but that there is an equal amount of romances for each gender. ME3 was crazy unbalanced for straight FemSheps, who either got Kaidan or none unless they romanced Garrus in ME2.
Dragon Age has had gay and straight options since Origins and made all the characters bisexual/Hawkesexual in DA2. Which is cool in most cases because you don't have to play M!Hawke or F!Hawke to experience all the romances.

And not lame one's like Sebastian
I can't bring myself to romance him just because it would mean not flirting with anyone throughout the game. Laaame.

Just looking at that mini picture of Cullen... And it kinda looks like they've given him a beard. At first I thought it was a overtly chiseled jawline, but when I look closely it looks kinda beard-ish. I'm not going to be pleased if they've made him look like Captain Birdseye.
Eh. I doubt it. His face looked like they photoshopped it from a screencap from DA2. Imo it just looked like his usual stubble.

I must have missed how starting out in the inquisition automatically makes you pro chantry. Um...what?
This made me LOL.

Er... I think I saw trident man in an Osprey Men at Arms book. That's the one I'm most skeptical about being a legit concept drawing.LolaLei wrote...
I wonder if Trident man will be romancable?

I was ignoring that. It's part of the lore for the Inquisition. With chantry affiliation, they're proto-templars. Without it, they had their own personal reign of terror. Neither is what you would call a feel-good background. R2s Muse posted quite a bit about it a few pages back.brushyourteeth wrote...

Because one of the leaked plot synopses says that the game will take place 10 years after the Blight in Ferelden. That would make Cullen... not all that old, really. 35-ish? About the same age that Alistair was when we romanced him?

So how old was Cullen in DA:O, anybody know?

Alistair was like, early twenties when we romanced him. I think someone figured it out to be around 19-26.
Cullen would be the same age as at the end of DA2. So yeah, I'm thinking somewhere in his thirties.

The Inquisition hunted down demons and abominations freely and became the Templars when they allied with the Chantry.
To me, becoming part of a new Inquisition means you're hunting down whatever nasty is attacking Thedas without Chantry affiliation, just as the Inquisition always did before it was disbanded.
Honestly, B. I think you're smart and I think you're funny, but Bioware will never force you to choose a religion in a Dragon Age game. You're being extremely silly by not letting go of this.
Much respect, just being honest.

Well I'm just reading all this about being forced into being religious and I was beginning to think I was back in that thread about how Muslims are Mages and I was all
Because in my game I picture Chris Hemsworth as the maker.

I thought Alistair was 19/20 in Origins, so if they're close in age, early 30s by DAIII?
Yeah, that's what I thought as well.
EDIT: And I'd guess they're close in age because of the timid way Cullen was at the beginning of DA:O.

It also killed remorselessly for the sake of religious zealotry, so... not much of a help there, to be honest. The only way I could see this working is if it was somehow founded in a secular manner.To me, becoming part of a new Inquisition means you're hunting down whatever nasty is attacking Thedas without Chantry affiliation, just as the Inquisition always did before it was disbanded.
Also, DG said there were no atheists on Thedas, and that there was never intended to be an option to express such, so Berelinde's fears are rather reasonable.

But I the thing is that you don't have to play a devout character. Your character may still believe in the Maker and whatnot, but they might not be a practicing Andrastian. That's how I sort of interpreted it anyway.

You only see things the way you want to see them. We don't know ANYTHING about the modern inquisition, who it's associated with, what it does, where it started, anything. All we know is they fight bad guys and may have had it's original roots with the chantry. Maybe.
For all we know it could be an inquisition from Ravini sent to plunder, rape and pilliage Orlais when all hell breaks loose. After all, they will never expect the inquisition.
My opinion? You're looking for things to hate about the game and resting your arguments on a leak that you've mentioned over and over again as being fake. So I'm just.......
Also, I don't understand how you can be pro-Cullen if you're anti-chantry. He's a bloody templar.

Honestly, I don't care if I'm given the privilege to choose my own devoutness level. I'd rather stay out of it entirely; I had to warp the game a bit with DA2 to see my Hawke as a follower of the Imperial Chantry, or at least following that general doctrine more closely.carine wrote...

Remarkably easily. For instance, I'm pro-Merrill. I'm not pro-Sabrae Clan, as they have a strong tendency to be moronic ****s.Also, I don't understand how you can be pro-Cullen if you're anti-chantry. He's a bloody templar.
