Maybe they imported a state where Leliana was hardened in DAO. Otherwise, her seeming super mean seems weird.
well,her having just been tortured and Dorian being a Tevinter magister who's familiar with her torturer might have dampened her mood a bit...
hmmm,having read that summary I think it sounds a lot like they went "cares about other guy? must be gay" than with any 'actual evidence'.
Also don't think Dorian had a relationship with Alexius OR Felix.

Indeed. Leliana being uber pissed off in this scenario makes perfect sense hardened or no.
No, please, no. Another ex that we have to kill? = Anders deja vu... 
Note to self : bring Dorian and don't let Leliana spy.
But it sounds like so much fun!

Which one is the rumored ex? Alexius or Felix?

It makes sense considering what happens to her (even before this...considering what's supposed to happen at the start of Inquisition).
Vivienne's "interview" added to the site today (as expected) adds some credence to the idea of Vivienne and Dorian's personalities clashing. It doesn't mention specifically about whether the "Inquisition mage" is Dorian or Solas (or technically perhaps even Morrigan, since Inquisition mage is purposefully vague), but still.
As opposed to Kirkwall templars who thought Hawke's staff was a shovel. There is balance in all things
If this is deliberate, what an incredible in-joke.

Does it count if he's already dead though?
I really really hope it's an indication of him being bisexual instead of gay. Because I'm apparently the only straight woman on the planent who doesn't want Cullen. And Dorian is well, smart rebel magister and a snappy dresser.
Nah, me too. I was excited for all the characters but my fangirling isn't at the level it was with the other DA and ME games. Just don't have any flashy and/or broody assassins that gimme the fangirl feels this time around. I'm just more excited for everyone. I like Cullen and I think he's a very compelling character but dayummm man needs to take a breath. His obsession with mage PC was creepy, too. LOL.
And Solas? I know NOTHING about him and his appearance is not to my personal type (he looks like he is a 50 year old New York choreographer with 20 cats in his loft apartment that is filled to the brim with African style sculptures and classical music.) So I don't knooowwwww~ ACTUALLY THO, Varric is super sexy... I wonder if they'll make him romanceable. He never showed interest in Hawke. Maybe only a dwarf romance?
I mainly play female PCs because that's what I do and like a lot of people I tend to feel more comfortable playing a character of my own gender, but I think I'd do a male PC play-through if Dorian was gay. He's really handsome and his backstory is aweeeeesome~ I love Tevinter lore. :-3
He just looks soooo haaannnddddsssoooommmeeee
PS I finally listened to the demo really loud to hear what he said. He has a really lovely voice. Too bad my ears are ringing, now. Darrah why you so loud!? HIS VOICE IS SO NICE THO
it's like 5am im so tired so i keep making paragraphs

Wait, that's ACTUALLY a thing!? xD

Nope, I really don't want Cullen as well 
I'd like someone who's brazen and clever, instead of Cullen who's pretty much Alistair 2.0 but probably with even more drama
+1 for the Dorian team!
his stache reminds me of my love for old movies

Welcome to Russia. Every female DA fan what i know does never want, does never like, hate Templar Cullen and want him dead

As a fangirl, hoping he's bisexual. As a writer, he still seems gay to me.
But. You never know.
I wonder if the VA's East Idian accent will show through in Dorian's voice.
Gaider stated in another thread that you'll be able to hear it.

How is Cullen like Alistair? Cullen doesn't have a funny bone in his entire body!

This. I have a feeeeeeeling as well.
It didn't sound that strong from the small bits we could hear in the demo. But best to wait for the whole thing.
Fair speculation. I still see some hints of a deeper relationship.
You know, he could have just been a good friend of Dorians. Males do have strong friendships with other males without it being gay.

It's more about how the romance will play out
Y'know, getting flustered, acting shy, awkward conversations and so on

If todays profile is Vivienne I guess we can expect Dorian on Sunday. (Varric and Cassandra tomorrow and on Saturday and then the last three, out of which we know the most about Dorian so I think they'll do him first.) Monday if they also do a profile for Morrigan (who shows up under Characters on the DA Homepage - unlike Dorian,Solas or 'Cole')
*crosses fingers*
I assume he'll be like me.
Speak perfect English with hints of the accent coming through. Personally I over-extend vowels especially the u sound and people notice. Not sure how Dorian's would come through. True East Indian accents are notoriously difficult to understand.

Iunno, kind of? From my end, Alistair was a very eager (albeit with no experience) beaver where as Cullen? Him even trying to mention a word associated with sexual things and he can barely get it out. I think his severe sexual repression could make things preeeetttyyy intense.
EDIT: I did not hear any sort of accent... the voice was soft enough but I didn't hear anything. Why are we certain that he has an East Indian accent?

Why are you still prodding on that point? I have already said that we can interpret the relationships in many ways. Your viewpoint is just as valid and could be just as correct.
Also your second statement is unnecessary. We are specifically talking about Dorian here and there's a pretty good chance he's going to be a love interest, so we're just dissecting everything being said to form some foundations for our own personal theories regarding his unknown sexual orientation. Given that we do not know his sexual orientation, a relationship with the son of his former mentor could either be platonic, romantic, or even non-existent. That's a fact. Our opinions diverge on the nature of the relationship.
I'm not here to paint gay on every relationship between men.
