I think it's great that Bioware pays so much attention to the different sexual orientations, but they should have told us a bit sooner... DHMG was my absolute favourite LI candidate since the first time I saw the war room concept art, and now it's hard to let go :pinched: I'm trying to slowly detach myself from him and latch myself onto Solas, but it's hard to let go of dat 'stache

Don't look into the 'tashe!

The World of Thedas part was particularly enlightening.

 

I can't speak for DAO, its been some time since I've played and I've only had a few playthroughs, but I do remember one instance where sexuality is talked about outside of romancing them (ala Anders) in DA2. Bethany asks Isabela in party banter if she has been with women, to which Isabela replies 'I know, it's shocking isn't it'.

It might be premature to only think they're doing one bi or gay option.

 

Just putting that out there. We're in uncharted territory for the DA series to even have exclusively f/f and m/m companions, and at this point I see no reason to assume there'll only be [x] number of characters who swing [y] ways. We have next to no idea how this is going to work.

 

"2/2/2" is speculation, not confirmed, remember.

 

Hello, I remember you from the old days when people were speculating about the gay romance option in ME3. Good to see you're still at it.

 

I assume you know why people think 2/2/2 might be how it plays out. David Gaider said:

 

I understand there are some people who prefer the idea of being able to romance any character who is able to be romanced, with any PC. That may have been a happy by-product of the system in DA2, for them, but that was not its purpose. Its purpose was to allow more than one option for every type of player, no matter who they were. That remains our goal.

 

"That remains our goal." And Mark Darrah said there will be gay, bisexual and straight characters. For each gender 1 gay character, 1 bisexual character, 1 straight character makes a minimum of two options for everyone.

Hi! The FftL threads on the ME3 forums were the good old days :P

 

It's fair to assume 2/2/2 as a minimum from that, yeah, but I wouldn't want to rule out more until we actually get our hands on the game. Or at least, I don't feel comfortable using 2/2/2 as a basis for speculation until we have stronger evidence that those are the numbers they're actually using. I understand the resources issue, but Inquisition seems hardly lacking for resources. 

 

(And for what it's worth, it's incredible to see how positively the DA devs are handling this. The difference between the ME franchise and what Inquisition/DA2 have done is like night and day.)

If he is a romance, I'm pretty sure he'll be gay. I remember Gaider saying that they try to make the LI's good contrasts to each other, both Cullen and DHMG seem like "pretty boys". So if Cullen is straight and DHMG gay, Solas who looks more practical would be a good contrast to both of them, meaning both sides get pretty much the same.

I'm really bad at making male characters, they just never cut it for me, but maybe I'll like DHMG enough to make it work ;)

Though I'm still kinda hoping he's bi

Part of me wants him to be straight to contrast his perceived persona-

No, make him at least bi. They can do that with someone else :P

Yeah, if they want to break stereotypes, they should make Solas straight and leave DHMG for his gay fans!  We appreciate this particular "stereotype" very very much.

 

Although, to be honest, I don't think he seems too stereotypical.  Yes, he's got meticulously groomed facial hair and he has had some moments of dramatic gesticulation, but who hasn't, right?

If there'd be break in stereotype, I see.
Iron Bull: Gay

Solas: Bi

DHMG: Straight

 

I feel stupid though, to only notice today that IB and DHMG have the same pose in the line-up. It'd be awesome if they were bros.

This exact thing has been a topic of conversation between myself and a friend recently. Perhaps more than is healthy for either of us.

 

Still, that's ^ much more eloquently stated.

 

. . . Seriously, though, Cass and Dorian please both like Da Ladies . . .

So by saying they want to make the game more realistic, they meant that just like irl all the good guys are either gay or taken :ph34r:

This kind of gives me hope that we're at least a little right in terms of his personality, if the staff are referring to him as such.
