I'm already a mage, so it'll be hard to take Viv with me.

I'm interested in the relationship between Solas and Dorian. Not that it matters much, but it's the first time we have two male mages in the party.

So based on what we know about the flamboyant Dorian which companion is everyone planning to have accompany them when they take Dorian?
Personally I plan on: Dorian/Vivienne/not so well dressed companion just to see all the "filthy clothing" dialogue.
I also wonder if Dorian will talk about his and other companions' appearance only when Vivi is around and just be sarcastic and fun when she's not.
Can't say I see him as flamboyant, but Sera and IB. Though I might return to the idea of Solas after his reveal. I'm sure I'll just end up switching a lot. If I understood it right, there is only some minor changes in difficulty when it comes to normal. So I feel safe sticking to hard and bringing along whatever, no matter how imbalanced it may seem.

thats a really cute pic perfect for my gay qunari who will romance Dorian for sure
I'm also hoping for some interesting conversations between my mage qunari and him seeing that
Qunari and Tevinter have been fighting for a long time

Qunari Mage Inquis, Dorian, Iron Bull, and Sera
The queer party! You know, assuming that Iron Bull is bi.

Dorian and Cole are my favorite characters, so I'll probably take them everywhere and leave the last slot open for whoever is most relevant to the story at the time. Or maybe a third will grow on me and end up almost always edging out for the spot. Varric was always in my party in DA2, so he's a strong chance. Maybe Blackwall, since he seems like the warrior I can most easily stomach and having one would make gameplay easier. Solas might be interesting if some of the theories about him turn out right.

I'm honestly starting to think he is.

It would look really bad if Iron Bull was gay or straight instead of bi, considering what has been said about him.

It does equate to sexy, though.

I apologize, but this has been going through my head for awhile. I know that the Freddy Mercury comparisons that Dorian has been getting is a little old, but this song just fits him. I mean it as a compliment:
Edit: Lyrics in spoiler tags so you all can see what I mean. It is his song, as far as I'm concerned:

I'm a gay guy, and yet I still find the joke to be in very bad taste.
It's a harmless joke

Not really, in my opinion. Doesn't send out a great message.

I saw it as sort of conciliatory, honestly (assuming that it was drawn by a woman, though I could be wrong). Like, "You dudes were sad, now we ladies are sad. We can all be sad together. Bioware, you cards."
Of course I could be wrong and maybe it was meant to be mean and spiteful, but I'm being optimistic. ![]()

Agreed, nowhere has it been stated that he is flamboyant, campy or effeminate.
Witty, Charming and confident does not equate flamboyant.
Well I looked up the definition and it means bold, brilliant, or being showy. I was just referring to his clothing. Also isn't he confident though?
Edit: also saw dashing in there too. Also a url. I'm on mobile at the moment so just copy and paste if that's not too much to ask ![]()

It honestly smacked to me of the latter, so I didn't find it all that amusing.

Consider that it was the picture of Sera with the male tears that sent the Sera thread into a downward spiral that got it temp locked, so it's not great to repeat the situation. In this thread, straight women that wanted to romance Dorian have been handling the situation gracefully and most guys that are happy to probably have him responded mostly with sympathy to the other side. Why risk breaking the positive streak with something that's proven inflammatory in the past?
But that's the only comment I'm going to make on the issue. I don't want to be part of escalating the situation.

I'm planning this too. Dorian and Vivienne will go everywhere with me, and Sera will have her DIY style very much critiqued. Possibly I should swap in Cole or Solas to share the load for her.
Since I'm already planning a mage, it might make the game more difficult, but hopefully the banters and comments will be well worth it.

Happy to see Team YOLO is a good combination, as it's likely going to be my "main" party, at least for combat-heavy segments.

FYI, if Dorian engages in too much mockery of anyone else, I hereby rescind everything good I said about him earlier.

Don't know what id 'too much' for you but it seems he might mock Sera/Solas along with Vivienne for their outfits.

Right, that would definitely be present in the "things I hate" lineup.
