Yup.

Liara and Tali were both quite eager for Shepard to pop their alien cherries.

You're pretty much saying that there is only one way that a Bioware game could work, and I should walk if I don't like it. I don't think taking away romances would inconvienience people that much. They can still develop relationships with all of the characters. They can still create fanfics. They can still discuss their favorite characters with like-minded people. There just won't be a sex scene, g.

Then you think badly incorrectly, as you can tell from... well, this thread. I have no intention of making you walk if you don't want to, but if the mere presence of a sidequest you don't enjoy sends you on a frenzy of wanting to ban it, I frankly think you're the one being unreasonable.


I'm not exactly in a frenzy nor am I angry here. I'd like to think that I've been pretty rational here. I'm not attacking anyone. I just want to know this: why is it essential for your favorite character to be in love with the PC? Is that the only way they are enjoyable?

Why is it essential to you that she not be?

And it makes them far, far more enjoyable, yes. There's an emotional connection that not everyone feels, which is fine, but it's definitely present in my case.

Can we negotiate with BioWare over the price of said Luvin ' DLC?


"We're sending someone to negotiate"

Anyone get the reference?

You could probably do at least five romance DLC packs. #5 being the one with all of the kinky stuff.


1. bad boys 'n' girls

2. sweet things

3. clingers

4. forbidden love

5. freaky non-human fun

Would probably sell like hotcakes, especially if it was Day-1.


What about the classics?

1. Virginal girl next door.
2. Crazy off the wall, let's have it on right here.

I mean, these are BioWare-approved after all.

Catholic Chantry schoolgirl fetish?

I can dig it.


What if they charged for showing sex scenes and kissing? Like right when you select the opion to fvck them, a message pops up saying "please pay $1.99".

You need to be put freaky non-human fun as the first DLC pack, it's the only one most people are interested in.

No.

That is something that doesn't not need to be taken from mobile gaming.

Goddamn inapp purchases. (well some of them can be reasonable but most of them are s***.)

But why? The personality of the person would still be the same. The friendship would still be the same. The only difference is that (s)he is your bestfriend instead of your (girl)boyfriend.

The -mancer crowd are a pretty dedicated lot. They could get away with fairly steep price, I'd wager. I'd say $10 a pop at least.


Per character? Or for the whole she-bang?


Per character... although in order to soften the initial hostility a bit it might be wise to pair a male and female in each pack.

Once players have been eased into the new marketing gimmick, they can do it on a single character basis.




You are getting way too much of a kick out of this, you sick-o.  :P

Guys, you're essentially turning BioWare into digital pimps.


They're already headed that route, aren't they?

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Bring on the microtransactions.

Even I have to admit that romance DLC packs would be ingenious in a monetary sense.
It would be a nightmare for PR.
The fan rage would be epic, but they would sell in the end.


You learn quickly, young grasshopper.



Not saying I agree with it.  Just that it is clever, in an evil genious sort of way.

Because the two types of relationship are very different, affecting different emotional centers of the brain and fulfilling different needs.

Better to have the option of romancing rather than take it away from the player. Dragon Age is all about choices, is it not? If people choose to concentrate more on them rather than the rest of the game, that's their business. Bioware gets the money either way and we continue to get the stories we love to play.


Oh, indeed, but think of how much more money BW will make if they put the romances in a DLC pack.


Well... they certainly wouldn't make a penny from me if they ever did that, but I'm sure I'd still enjoy them :bandit:

My Hawke died a painful, itchy, and disturbing death. That explains his disappearance.

To be serious, I'm sure some people actually would pay for this dlc, but a lot of fans would be very upset.

It could be like those "peep shows" at those old smut theaters from way back in, where you keep inserting coins to see, err... more inserting.

Inserts for inserts. Marketing at its finest. :wizard:

But you'll still feel the same way regardless if the feelings are the same for the character. It doesn't take away from the character. Not one bit. Also, you're in the middle of the biggest war since the Blight. Ain't nobody got time for that.

Something tells me the BW writers have a lot of fun writing the LI into the story. Romance always adds spice to any form of story.

Again, you speak as if BW should care whether you buy it or not. $90, man!:lol:

Any company with a shred of business sense takes notice when it loses customers.

My ninety Australian dollars might not make a big difference to them, but I bet they'd rather have it than not.

I'm doing them a favour by telling them exactly how to make me cough up money. If they want to ignore me, that's their prerogative. I'll give my money to someone else instead.


True, but if it's more profitable to lose the great and powerful Plaintiff as a customer by doing something that attracts more customers than they lose?
