It's crazy how the in-game (DA:O) Morrigan looks prettier than she does in all the concept art and trailers (DA:O and Inquisition).

Man, whos selling you the dope? I advise to change the dealer ;P

How old was the "real Cole" when he died? Mid teenage years or younger?

What does that matter? Physically, Cole is an adult. Mentally, he is not. He does not understand sex, much as a child would not, and this is explicitly stated in the book.

Isn't Cole a despair demon or something like that anyway? Don't really see one of them wanting to get their groove on with anybody.

Although if Criminal Minds is to be believed(which it more than likely isn't), profilers would often identify a serial killer's tendency of using a knife to stab their victims as sexual, reflective of impotence or misogyny. And it is noteworthy that Cole's only shown victim and other intended victim as the "Ghost of the Spire" were both women.

His implied murder of Lambert was portrayed as vengeance, and not putting the despaired out of their suffering.

Am just suprised they plan to add a straight romance for men in the game.. though they skip that this time around. Not that it matters anyway... didnt the dragon age inquisition writing team consist of only women by now .. so i dont think am gonna get that awesome game where am a undying powerhouse of awesome.

Am afraid ill be a "person getting in touch with my emotions while surrounding myself with openly gay companions that i cannot romance"

-.-

yay, thats my escapist fantasy allright... skip the magic powerful mage with sexy vixens... i want gay emotional angst and a soulsearching experience to challenge my inner prejudice.. we all know that is like a bucket of fun.... and now i get to pay for it!!!  yayyyyy

The next Witcher comes out soon, that sounds right up your alley: lots of naked boobs, magic, and none of those pesky emotions!

I wonder if it's possible to use magic to change gender.

The sad thing being, of course, that Merrill was a romance option despite that sisterly vibe. 

I would agree with you on that.  Merrill did come across to me more than a bit as more girl than woman and that's probably my biggest turn off for romancing her.  I always felt like there was a bit of a power imbalance in a Merrill/Hawke relationship that struck me as a tad creepy.

Exactly. I felt like a babysitter. 

But the alternative was a pirate hooker. So many STDs. 


Morrigan and Leliana were far more appealing LIs,  in my opinion.

Then there's Anders who's just unacceptable all around for the creepy possessed terrorist thing they tried to do.

Which for me, left the grumpy elf Fenris that denied my Hawke lovin' for like three years. How the HELL did he become the best option? For me at least, lol. Who knew I even liked grumpy? Well, I guess in comparassion.. lol.

To clarify what the OP meant. When he said "male romance options" he meant romance options for a male Inquisitor, it was pointed out to him that people would take that to mean something else and so he changed it. His new title can still be taken the wrong way though(as asking what will be the female Inquisitor romance options). No win situation for the poor OP.

Personally, after reading the books, I've found it really creepy and disturbing that there are people that are lobbying for Cole, the child-minded killer demon, for a LI. He was a sympathetic character (until the end, my thoughts on him changed at the end of the book). But he needs a friend and a hug, anything more 'adult'?

Meh.  Isabela's a clean pirate.  I don't care what those people said about her on the docks.  Jealous people spread evil tidings. 

She's much too discerning to fall prey to horrid diseases, and on the off chance she gets an unlucky break, well...isn't that the point of magic? 

I thought Anders suggested ointments meaning there's not magic for it.....I mean, there's no magic that just cleans every disease known to man.....I would certainly hope not anyway.

When Isabela goes to Anders, the only thing he says to her as I recall is "Don't come running to me the next time you catch one of these diseases," to which she answers "isn't that the point of magic?"  You're thinking of what he said to the seneschal.  But I have to point that giving the man an ointment doesn't necessarily rule out magic's ability to "fix" an STD, and there's no reason why the ointment might not've been magically imbued or what-have-you. 

It's not a given, of course, but given the exchange between Isabela and Anders I don't see any reason to come away with the conclusion that magic can't heal STDs.  For me, the bigger question is why on earth you would hope that it can't.  I can't wrap my head around that at all.

It looks like a 5 year old who's mom cut her hair with a bowl. She looks crazy though... so I think it might be perfect.

I've been waiting for a chance to post this.

[Br3admax]

I think that they are also thinking of the comment made about staying away from pirates near the dock to which Isabela responds, though I agree that making assumptions from that is very unfair.

Well, STDs contains a whole different assortment of diseases that you would think would require different froms of healing.  As for why not, it simply makes any conflicts less interesting to know healing magic can take of everything.  Got the flu, healed.  Got the plague, healed.  Obviously, if this was real life, I'd be estatic about it.

What's hilarious about it is that people clearly are not bothering to read the guy's OP, since he spelled what he actually wanted to discuss in the post even if the title wasn't clear. Everyone who keeps asking why the thread title was changed probably wouldn't have to do that if they'd read the OP at all and knew the source of the initial confusion. 

People are funny.

Okay, I've tried no fewer than seven times to post this because the damned page keeps reloading on me and taking me out of the posting box.  It's starting to ****** me off.  Anyway:

Obviously without magic different diseases require different kinds of treatment and curatives, but with magic I see no reason why it would be able cure one disease but not others.  What would make an STD so fundamentally different from any other kind of pestilence that magic could cure the one but not the other?  That seems like a rather arbitrary distinction that just screams "because the writer said so!" rather than arising naturally from the lore. 

I don't think magic being capable of curing all diseases would strip away conflict.  Getting away from the fact that disease is not the only scourge of humanity, if something as virulent as the Black Death of the 14th century were to rage across Thedas, I don't think mages' ability to heal would be able to, er, magically make it all better.

I agree, she looks like an awesome character. Every adventure needs one or two crazy girls along. Saying they talk to the maker, or maybe just has a fun demon pal to help rediscover elf history. Maybe she just has a mother that can turn into a dragon. 

Bioware girls... because you have no choice but crazy.

Before Bioware games come out however I am always critical of female characters because I'm afriad that who i'll get stuck romancing.  haha I remember when Samara was announced and I was like... Oh god! Please no grandma love!! There was no lady romance for me in that game and I prefer it that way. (I know many feel differently.)

If I might ask, what in particular worries you about the girls we've seen thus far, if anything? Have you had any moments of "please god not her", or has it mostly been smaller things like the hair? 

At this point I'll just be dissapointed if there is no female inquisitor/Cassandra romance. Consider me wooed. <3

No, it's because apparently a lot of people didn't bother to actually read the OP's posts and comprehend what he was saying.  The topic was meant to be about the male inquisitor's female love interests.  Somebody misunderstood, and the topic snowballed out of control from there.

Okay, this is a personal theory my gf came up with, just a personal theory, not to be taken too seriously based off of leaked info that the devs say they have changed a great deal. This is fun and I wanted to share, but that's all it is conjecture.
Okay assume the leaked info is true...
now there are 2 ways romances could happen 4 bi options, or 2 gay, 2 bi, 2 straight options.

Our list of characters are... Grey Warden, Cassandra, cole, Iron Bull, sera, Varric, Vivienne, unknown female Mage(due to 3 of each type and we already have 5 male characters and bioware would try to make it equal) and Dorian

As great as the Grey warden seems to be, most younger girls might not like the age, and I don't think we ever had an older male character before, Cole is Childlike and I think that leaves him out if nothing else does

so for male... Varric, Iron Bull, Dorian, if going by the 2 of each. Varric is either straight or bi due to having a girl in his past, Dorian who I think is an Elven Mage will probably be bi, as girls and guys have had a male elf romance every game and as a new character has no preconceptions that can plague fandom. Which means Varric is straight, Dorian is Bi, and Iron Bull gay. As I said just a guess

if only 4 bisexual LIs, 2 of each sex Dorian and Varric mostly due to his fandom probably makes him a more popular choice than Iron Bull.

for the Women: there is Cassandra, Vivienne, Sera, and an unknown female mage. Cassandra can be either bi or straight due to having a crush in her movie, Sera/Vivienne/ and unknown Mage are harder to pinpoint. As Sera fits a few types we have seen before with male romance, and also because we should avoid elves are all bi, she is also probably Straight. Which means Vivienne/ or unknown Mage is the lesbian(hopefully Vivienne already fallen in love with her)

If only 4 LIs of each I think Cassandra and Sera will be the female ones( sadly, since Vivienne is amazing but I feel Bioware may be less likely to choose her as a romance)

which means Male Protag romances are:
Iron Bull(gay)
dorian(bi)
Sera(straight)
Cassandra (bi)

Female Protag LIs:
Vivienne (lesbian)
Cassandra (bi)
Varric (straight)
Dorian (bi)

or if we have 4 bisexual romances... Cassandra, Dorian, Varric, and probably sera (hopefully Vivienne!)

I would think Sera would be the lesbian only romance over Vivienne. Of course, that could just me be preferring it be her.

[karushna5]

I have to admit I am not as fond of Sera, but I really want to give her a chance, especially since we know so little about any of them. Her blurb, which was just that, a blurb, seemed more flat than the others but hard to tell. Possible unknown female Mage could be there instead, and I do just realize, not only with the 6 LIs are there 2 of each, but one of each class.
