Cassandra was not manly enough in DA2.

Everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy a lady with strong hands.

Are you kidding? I would totally take Lana Kane over any Dragon Age woman. Based on looks, anyway.

I never liked Cassandra. Everything Varric mentioned she was like "AHA! That explains it." I sent Bethany to the Wardens and that explains what went down in the Gallows and started a war between mages and templars? Ok, whatever you say lady.

I liked the way Cassandra looked. And I'm absolutely positive she'll be a companion. I'm calling it now: her personal quest line will be about Hawke!

Sweet. Anything that would disapoint the pro-mages is likely good news for me.

Who she seemed to have a crush on in DA2. So, if she is a LI, does that mean we will have options to be jealous of ourselves?

If Cassandra was a companion? I would 100% desire her to NOT be romanceable. Girl that dutiful has to be unreceptive to Romance...

I wouldn't want to romance her, but what you're saying seems a very interesting concept, with a great deal of potential for an unique romance. Persuading Cassandra to accept your love while she actually holds feelings for the Champion....

You necro'd a thread to say you'll enjoy something if it specifically disappoints a specific group of people? You must really hate the pro-mage group, which is really sad.

First, TheLittleBird posted an hour before me so, I didn't necro the thread.

Second, you'll notice my post dealt with issues related to Cassandra which in On-Topic.

Third, It's neither a matter of hatred nor of me enjoying something just because the pro-mages are disapointed. It's a matter of Mr. Gaider's statement raising hope that DAI won't force me to fight for mage independence or anything similar.
After having no choice in how I dealt with Cerberus in ME3, that was good news for me. It's nothing personal, really.

You have not watched Dawn of the Seeker ?

There's a male mage that might disagree with you

one kiss does not prove her to be romanceable for the PC.

If a woman ever kisses a man it blatantly means she is a wh0re who will eventually sleep with every man she comes into contact with. H#ll, they don't even need that prerequisite, they'll sleep with anyone regardless, even with each other.

at least that's what I've learned from video games, haven't actually gone out into the real world yet, my mom says it's not safe.

Even if she is a companion(or in the game in general)I know for a fact she won't look like she did in DotS.Since that event took place 18 years before her interrogation with Varric

I'd say most of the discussion in this specific forum focuses on hypothetical discussion, as opposed to leaping to conclusions.

That sounds fine. I get the impression sometimes from threads like this that such things are expectations and not hypothetical discussions.

The example of a pro-templar or pro-Chantry companion was simply an example of how I don't think that a companion would work with a protagonist who went against their moral or ethical code.

Depending on what you're allowed to express in-game, as well as the context of your relationship with that companion, certainly.

I suppose I could have used the example of Fenris: I genuinely don't see why Fenris would associate with a pro-slavery Hawke, who not only explicitly endorsed slavery, but kept Orana as a slave.

It caused a big rivalry jump (perhaps the biggest, I forget), but I don't think it would be a deal-breaker for him as you seem to. But so be it.

I made her my servent, I paid her. I like being on good terms with my companions.

I thought she looked fine in DAII. Rather keep it TBH.

Agreed on this. Short hair looks good on women too.

On some women. Not all women. Just like some men look good with long hair but not all of them. I like Cassandra's ponytail from Dawn of the Seeker and one of the featurettes from the dvd explains Cassandra was originally supposed to have longer hair in DA2, but issues with it clipping her armor and doing weird things in the lighting lead to the short hair decision. They were going for a Queen of the Damned look originally with long slicked back hair. So new game, new engine she could have long hair. She looks fine with short hair and it works with her transition from young Seeker to mature Seeker, but I wouldn't mind a long haired Cassandra.

Agreed. I never liked her, and watching the anime sealed my dislike for her even more.

If she's in the game, I hope I can either tell her to shove off, betray her so that she leaves me, or kill her if that's the only way to get rid of her.

Do you want to see Cassandra redesigned or do you want her to be more like in DA2 ?

I want her eyeliner texture available for the PC

I don't think any player wants to be railroaded into helping a faction they strongly disagree with, which was the concern among some players over the protagonist possibly working for the Chantry or the templars (in a mandatory fashion) early on. More choices are always better. I think pro-mage and pro-templar options should be available. I don't think either side should be coerced into helping the mages or templars if the player wants to aid one over the other. And I wish all companions could be optional, rather than automatic. I certainly have no interest in having Cassandra (or Cullen) as companions, and I'm sure some pro-templar players want to avoid another Anders and Merrill type of situation as well.
