I really can't get over how perfect this song is for a Cullen romance!
=D www.youtube.com/watch ever since The
SanguineVixen posted her mod on YT, I can't hear it without thinking of a
Cullen romance scene! =D It's not a bad problem to have though... http://www.youtube.c...feature=related ' class='bbc_url' title='External link' rel='nofollow external'> http://www.youtube.com/watch
Edit: Had to fix the links, do'h!
I like it but its a bit slow.. Ive always imagined something a bit more cheerful for Cullen.
Talk about melting...

So one of the BSN users just made an interesting post about the 10 companion thing being wrong from the survey leak:
"The part that mentioned ten companions was also translated from German (I haven't seen the original posted anywhere), and it's possible that 10 companions are the total max, and our "recruitable" maximum of those is quite a bit less. As in, I'd expect marketing materials to trumpet 10 companions without including the nuance that it's not possible to get all ten in a single playthrough.
KOTOR had specific companions depending on gender, Bioware's done it in the past based on class (Bethany or Carver) and there could always be an element of player choice involved."
If the survey leak is legit, then this could certainly be the case.

Do you guys ever think that we fleshed Cullen out so much that we made the devs less enthusiastic about continuing his story?

If I were a betting man I would say that the most we'll see in a single playthrough (and this is stretching the definition of companion) than we'll get nine, including dog with one of those companions swappable. To be honest I have a sort of love hate relationship with companions being restricted because of class or gender, particularly the way they did it in DA2 was...meh. I mean I understand why having Bethany as a Mage would be redundant, the same with Carver when it comes to being at Ostagar but if they had held off for a couple of levels then maybe I wouldn't be so iffy about that kind of restriction.
I like when they do it and it adds a layer to the game, when events literally transpire differently because of I have this companion instead of that companion, doesn't have to be that same particular level (ideally it would be a different one) but when I have Carver instead of Bethany I like it when they have completely different outcomes rather than er...opposite if that makes any sense?

Oh, I like Poets Of The Fall, they always remind me of Cullen..but that could be because the first time I heard a song of theirs I was watching a Cullen/Anders video.

I know everyone always brings this game up, but The Witcher 2 done it really well, because you literally had a few seconds to decide whether to side with one potential companion or the other, depending on who you chose completely changed the rest of your game. Now, that would probably be too difficult to implement with such a in-depth/variable game like Dragon Age, but having the outcome of your choice of companion come and bite you in the arse at a later point in the game would be pretty cool. For example:
You have a split second choice to make between siding with a rebel mage or Cullen. You pick the mage. Later in the game you discover your mage companion is into blood magic, and despite his/her best intentions accidentally gets possessed by a demon, causing another companion or major NPC to die as you try to forceable remove the demon. If you side with Cullen, the mage fraction that you don't side with decide to pull an Anders stunt and blow up an important NPC who would have been important in your mission.
I mean it doesn't have to be Witcher 2 style change the entire course of the game, but like in your example how even though you pick one guy over the other the overall concept of the game doesn't change but at some critical moment it could have resounding consequences on a part of the game, neither outcome is better than the other or more "good" but it changes a good portion of the game realistically.

I always thought that even if the survey was legit, the information there was certainly not set in stone. I thought it was sort of testing the waters on very early ideas. They could have since narrowed down the number of companions as well.

Exactly. I think that's probably something they'll do actually. Perhaps our background choice could have similar implications. Like, if you're a mage the rebelled Templars will point blank refuse to work with you, perhaps even going out of their way to try to ambush you etc. Apparently our background will have some big implications in-game, so it doesn't seem too far fetched that something similar could happen.
Day 42 - I found Carroll's bloody socks under my bed again! Not only do they smell but they're always stiff and crunchy. Why would his socks be crunchy?
Day 57 - My skivies are missing.... again. I b et I'll find them in his trunk... again. He's going to tell me he was doing both our wash together.... again. I wish he'd stop. Just stop.
Day 60 - I caught Carroll "borrowing" my wash cloth again... Maker, I don't want to think about where he's been using it. Must remember to request a new one from Greagoir. Not to self: Buy new pants.
Day 61 - Found a sprig of lavender in my smallclothes drawer. Carroll blushed and said they freshen your linens. "You know, for when you finally get your hands on that pretty mage. After I'm done with her, that is." Prat.
Day 62 - Saw Carroll flirting with Amell today. Must. Punch. Something.

Without choices.
1. Gender (minor implications)
2. class (normal implications)
3. Backgrounds (possibly normal/major implications)
4. Specializations (possibly normal/major implications)

SO hey everybody, here's an idea for Page 1000. Some of you may recall a silly discussion we had around the end of August imagining how well, or rather not so well, Cullen would get on with Carroll. Much fun was had imagining Cullen's journal entries about it.
The notion would be to crowd source entries for the journal, with everyone thinking some up and sharing for page 1000. Something like the following. Then we'll post them here at http://templardiaries.tumblr.com/
Whaddya think?
