It depends on the character and in particular the voice.

Would everyone have loved Alistair so much if he grumbled and whined all the time (instead of being humorous and adorable)?

Hate to break this to you, but some people DO consider Alistair to be a whiny, lying, twit and are all too happy to order him to his death. This doesn't apply to me, but there you go. Every follower has his or her detractors.

I like Alistair and even I think he's whiny.
"DUNNNNCANNNNNN WRYYYY" oh shut up already

Yes I would. I romanced Garrus in ME and he is not physically appealing to me. His personality is what drew me in. In DA:O I wanted to romance Sten and Loghain the most - again, personality not looks. In DA:2 I longed for Aveline and most people (esp guys) consider her fugly. She was utterly adorable to me though.

In appearance? Sure. In personality? Hells yes.

Personalities of companions and love interests have been as fresh faced and pretty boyed as their appearances. If I had the option to romance a truly horrible human being, in both personality and appearance, I might actually pursue it of my own accord, if only to escape the fangirl(boy) tripe that Bioware have been trying to feed me.

Oh yeah, yeah I went there.


This is actually interesting, but I imagine that it is even harder to do, because if what is ugly in appearence is subjective, what is ugly in personality is even more so.

They Li would properly have to be an ax-crazy baby eating cannibal for all us to agree that they have an ugly personality.

If all the LI in-game (both men & women) looked like utter trash, would you still romance him/her anyway?


I only ever romance characters to see what happens, so yes.

I usually cut out the fat since I'm on a diet. They taste better when you saute them with some BBQ sauce.

If the ugly character had a deliciously sexy voice and was not a darkspawn or some evil creature, yes, I would romance them.

Yeah no, this is a video game. Why would I settle in a video game? I don't care if they have a personality of a saint, if you look like Jack from Mass Effect it's a deal breaker. I'm sorry if that sounds shallow, but at least I'm honest.

Ugly like her? Not really (okay maybe once for the novelty).

It would depend heavily on the personality. I mean, I romanced Garrus once, and he's a space lizard thing. But he has a marvellous personality.

No, I don't escape to video game land to settle. Would you settle for small little shabby house in a video game, or reach for the stars and try to get a castle?

XD I thought Merril was the most hideous LI ever created (and hated her self-centered, childish, hypocritical, retarded personality) but I still romanced her on one character because I romance all the things! (and try to do every single thing you can possibly do in a game)

Alistair is ok, good looking, sometimes funny, modesty, gentlemen...but he's too sensitive, make me scared, he have emotional instability...insecurity...a liar...

Zevran is ugly, even for an Elf, but he's is funny, i like to chat with him, he's also a sexy seducer, but he is an assassin, a bisexual, involve in free sex life style...

Anders is fine looking too, he is a kind man, funny, but he is fragile, an abomination, a terrorist...

Fenris...i like his voice, and only that...

it seems to be i will never have a boyfriend in DA world...

Fenris is not really my cup of tea look wise but when he starts to speak he really makes an impact. I have to admit out of all the companions in DA2, Varric would have been the one for me!

Off topic: you know what always confused me? I've seen people more than once say that they HATE Kaidan because he whines too much...unlike Alistair.

I know people interpret characters differently but this is just weird to me. I didn't think Kaidan whined that much even compared to the other ME characters. Alistair on the other hand does whine a fair bit, he just makes up for it with humour.

Sten is ugly, but i like his character, despite what he think about women, i can tolerate it because he's a Qunari, he's strong, very manly, honorable man, loyal, i feel secure, but he's short sighted, he complain my decision, he think i am callow, he question my duty...

Oghren is funny, he's a warrior, honorable, a realist, but he's a drunkard, he love to use bad words, he love to use sexual jokes...

the funny thing is...in DA world...i think i like Loghain...yes he's the evil dude of the game, but he have a strong character, he's strong, a warrior, a leader, honorable, responsible....he is matured, loyal (to his wife)...i feel secure...i know he is a romantic guy, sentimental, fatherly, and he's actually funny......he is a kind of a guy i can married with...

It really depends. If we're talking Quasimodo levels of ugly then probably not, but LI's tend to be so generically 'attractive' that I get the impression even an average appearance would be considered "ugly" by many.

I wouldn't mind average looking or slightly less attractive than average appearance though. I mean Aveline for example wasn't the most attractive character ever (though by no means ugly) and I would have romanced her if she was an option.

The whole Garrus thing is interesting. I wouldn't call incredibly alien looking LI's like him "ugly" per se. Obviously he wasn't incredibly attractive by normal human standards, but I wouldn't say alien looking necessarily means unattractive (Except in the case of DA2 elves but that's another matter entirely). And a strong and likable personality can make a person attractive, both in real life and in games.
