I romance Alistair with my Gay Warden as well. I love the romance, but I just wanna punch him everytime he talks about what a pretty lady I am. :lol:


Oh my word, yes, my poor Warden was seriously questioning his masculinity during a few of those conversations :lol: I lke to imagine that he goes and cries on Wynne's shoulder, "A-Alistair keeps referring to me as a woman! D I look like a woman?! ... DO I?!"

My elf does like a bit feminine, maybe a bit leaning toward Matthew Morrison with the curly hair, so I can't really blame Alistair for thinking that. It's a bit ironic when my warden said that he could think of worse things than becoming queen. It's unintentionally sarcastic and ironic. Hopefully, Cullen won't have those kinds of awkward dialogues. It would be interesting to imagine his response to a flirty line from a male inquisitor. :lol:

May I ask what do you like so much about Culle, battlebloodmage? Especially since you love playing as a mage, and he wanted to kill all the mages in DAO.

My canon file is a mage, which means that I started the game out as a mage. I love his initial converstation with Cullen. I have a thing for shy guy, especially one wiht a stutter. :lol: . I understand why he reacted the way he did at the tower. All of his friends were killed or turned into abominations. He wasn't really himself during that time. I personally don't trust the endings too much since Bioware confirmed that most of it are rumors. Canonically, none of the endings are true since he didn't flee after slaughtered tons of mages (He's still a part of the templar) or become a knight-commander (He's only a Knight-Captain). Regarding the events in Kirkwall, he defended the surrendered mages, so he doesn't just kill mages indiscriminately. Cullen also seems to be the kind of person who has his own principles and doesn't just follow orders blindly. He raised his sword against the knight-commander, and he gets pretty mad at Hawke if he doesn't choose a side. Also, there is something pretty appealing about forbidden love between a mage and a templar. :wub:

Meh, still don't like him. The Cullen in the Magi origin, the Cullen in the Broken Circle quest and the Cullen in DA2 almost seem like different characters. The only templar I like is Carver.

Hence my secret Anders x Cullen obsession :P

Yeah I'm gonna play a mage first, too, if Cullen is LI. But only if we have to play human. I want Human mage x Cullen or elf rogue x Cullen

He was sent to Kirkwall because mages aren't people and why should to Order care if a few are dead. Or they just wanted to make sure dude-face was alive in DA3. 
Yes, trying to prevent an unjust murder super special morals, indeed. I'm so proud of him.

But if he's an s/s romance, I will definitely play this game, only because I want to see how many forums you guys would make about him "Being straight in Origins." Then gleefully post pictures of him romancing my male PC in his character forum.  

Templar Carver for DA3LI tho

I think you're gonna be disappointed. While there're a few who want Cullen to be exclusively straight, mostof the people I talked to in Cullen thread was pretty open-minded about Cullen being romanceable by both genders. This is why I don't get about people calling Cullen fangirls crazy. They're the most understanding fanbase I have talked to so far. :)

Carver, just like Bethany, will not be a LI since David is against making family members romanceable.

You're not playing as Hawke. Carver or Bethany won't be an LI in DA3 because of lots and lots and lots of reasons, but it's not because of the incest one this time around.

I'm pretty sure he mentioned incest as one of the reasons. It was not too long ago. Since I'm too lazy to find that post, I'm not gonna argue on that point.

Yes. Incest was the reason they weren't romancable in Dragon Age 2. That won't be a factor in Dragon Age 3 since we won't be playing as Hawke. There are, however, a whole host of new issues that arise that explain why Bethany or Carver won't be a romance option in Dragon Age 3.

I paraphase David's words here. He said he's not gonna make Bethany
romanceable in DA3 just so some guys can romance his sister. 

It shows that it is one of the reasons why she will not be romaceable in the next game if she were to return.

That and the fact that both Carver and Bethany can die in DA2. It would be too tricky to implement even if they wanted to. Which they don't, since DG was very clear on the matter.

No, although on one playthrough Hawke was annoyed and told him to go away. But then he mysteriously showed up at the Gallows ... but Hawke was still mad at him so didn't talk to him. So he just stood there like a sad panda xD

When I downloaded a mod to romance Morrigan, it was kinda the same, well, until she asked me to impregnate her :blink:. But I wanted to run and cry "I'm not a dude! Are elves just that hard to tell apart?!"

Mind you, some of the dialogue choices took on a whole new demented dimension. My favorite is still the "There are worse things I can think of than being a queen" option shortly after the Landsmeet when you announce that Alistair will be king and you'll rule beside him.  :D

You ruined my keyboard. Seriously, I spit tea on it from laughing so hard. I had to goto the store and get another one....meta hilarity.....:D

I wonder if David Gaider writes any male LI. I'm enjoying Shale and Alistair a lot. His character always has an interesting dynamic to them. Maybe he will write Cullen in the next game, as long as he's not being written as dead like some abound rumors. lol

Although I love what happened in ME3 with Cortez being gay and only an option for the BroSheps, I personally have no problem with some of the LIs being PlayerSexual. But if they're going to make a companion a PlayerSexual LI, then go for it all the way. By that I mean, if the PC is playing a Female, and expresses interest in HotGuyCompanion, have him express his heterosexuality and fondness of bewbs (the PC's bewbs, even). But if the PC is Male and flirts with the exact same HotGuyCompanion on a different play-through, I'd be totally okay with him stating how gay he is and "Thank the Maker you came into my life because and bewbs are gross."

This whole bisexuality thing seems to have been poorly implemented with some of the NPCs. It's like they're trying to make a character straight, gay, or bi across everyone's board, when I was under the impression that each Warden/Hawke/DA3Hero's story is supposed to be unique to the player playing it. If HotGuyCompanion is gay in one play through and straight in another, I'm totally okay with that and will roll with those punches. I think it would make my experience even more special because I know it's (at least halfway) unique to me.

Do not misunderstand me: I am not attacking the characters that openly are bisexual. Isabella and Zevran were wonderfully well-done, and I had no issue romancing either simply because they "slept with someon of the other sex."  They owned their bisexuality all the way. It's just that the earlier debate over Anders's sexuality, to me, is annoying. Why can't he straight in your play-through, but gay in mine? Does it really matter?

And, just to play Devil's Advocate to my own idea: How big of a Dick Move would it be if BioWare did my idea, but to the opposite effect? Like, what if Cullen tells a female PC he's as gay as the day is long, but then when you start a new playthrough as a male, he tells you he's straight as an arrow?

Personally, I'd RageSmile while laughing through my own tears at the beauty of the boldness of it all.

I'm hoping that they don't go back to the old format with one bi and one straight. Straight gamers can romance everyone while the gaymers stuck with just one, so it's the either take-it-or-leave-it option. Alistair is an adorable woobie, I was so sad that he wasn't romanceable. I would agree with you that having bi choices are fine, but if they want to make a herosexual then the herosexual LI should comment on the sex related to your gender if you want to make it believeable. It's a bit annoying that Kaidan commented on females while getting together with Male Shep. I would love for something subtle like commenting on how handsome someone is, the same way Kaidan did to Jacob if Femshep cheated on him. It's just these little sutbles things that bring the story to life, you know?

I'm trying to figure out what you mean here.

If you're asking about gay romances, David has done two now (out of the six that BioWare has done in its entire history). If you're simply wondering about male romance partners, David has pretty much done them all. Anomen. Carth. Valen. Alistair. Zevran. Fenris.

The only ones he didn't do were Jade Empire (I believe Mike wrote Sky) and Mass Effect (I think Luke originally wrote Kaidan, and then handled Jacob in ME2). Mike is now lead designer of the DA franchise, and Luke is a DA writer, so it's still all in the family. (Chris wrote Thane if I'm not mistaken, but he's no longer with BioWare.)

Anyway, Shale is my absolute favorite character. I'm glad you're enjoying her. I truly hope David gets to write more for her in the future (she featured in Asunder; it was magical).
