I don't care if DHMG is bi or gay. I'd like him to be bi, but then I'd feel bad (presumably) for Solas fans, so there's no real winning in hoping other people get what they want. It kind of seems like there are more female Solas fans than DHMG, so I almost wonder if Solas isn't the best hetero option. I've hardly seen any gay fans specifically hoping for Solas, honestly, but a large amount of female fans. Cullen has always had so many fans on both sides. I might be off on my estimations, though. 

 

If DHMG is available, though, he'll probably be the only option I'll use. It was the same with the past games. I've always stuck with one romance option. Maybe some day there will be two I like equally, but I'm pretty sure this isn't going to be it. lol

What if there was a Klee Kai dating sim?

No, there must only be a Klee Kai petting sim. Also, a panda hugging sim.

I had a rambling and incoherent post about it here: http://forum.bioware...ion/?p=16336094

 

The literary inspiration they seem to be drawing for the character makes him more likely to be an m/m option than any of the other party members, I feel. I don't think those references to Wilde and French naturalism are an accident, and he's quite significantly associated with 19th-century gay writers and social figures. That being said, I think it's just as likely that he could be bisexual. 

 

That's not a lot of strong evidence, more of a hunch. Unless they really want to subvert expectations, DHMG has a lot of signposts pointing towards being available to male Inquisitors. 

 

Very interesting. All I know about Oscar Wilde is what Stephen Fry mentions on QI, that Wilde put his hand up to cover his mouth when he laughed, which was considered feminine. He did it, because his teeth were green, because of the treatment for his syphilis.  I know I should read about these historic gay figures. Gay history is important and all. Or maybe I'll just watch the movie.

Not exactly stereotype-breaking, but who knows what the Dragon Age team is going for. I think I would like it.

Why does everyone seem to think it so likely Solas will be a romance option? If I were part of the DA team, I would think a qunari or middle-aged human would be better than yet another elf (humans are too cool to go out of fashion, shut up xD).

 

I guess I'm just surprised he has so many fans in the romance department.

I wrote an analysis about 10 pages back. If you care, check it out

 

I've seen it. I agree with Cullen and Varric being straight or bisexual, with Cole probably not being an LI, Iron Bull probably not being the gay option, but I'm not sure the bearded warden can be excluded for being too old. I don't know about Solas either. I don't like they way he looks or the way he dresses, but I don't see a reason why he couldn't be an m/m option. I just don't see DHMG being the only possible gay option.

Especially with the new exclusive gating, I don't think it's the best time to start picking the least traditionally attractive options.

But you know Bioware would do it. >_>

He's too fabulous

 

Possibly true, but it could so easily go overboard and become offensive.

People like their Elves I guess.

 

I'd rather have all of them   Iron bull or GW as romances, as opposed to Solas. However, their personalities determine who I'd finally go for. 

 

On my first 2 playthroughs as male Hawke I romanced Anders purely on looks, but then his personality started to grate on me (WAH MAGES WAH, seriously, talk about something else) so I started romancing Fenris, which, even though I don't really like his looks, I felt was a better romance arc. Anders was always going to be tragic, and I can't forgive him for what he did. I feel for him, but that's about it.

 

I want the Dorian romance to be endless sunsets and roses. Please? Pretty Please??

Ahaha. Hahaha, Haha. Ha.

If he doesn't have a portrait of himself in his tent slowly getting older, he probably made a deal with a demon or something.  

 

Someone mentioned Faust about 20 pages back and I can't stop thinking they'll use that as inspiration. That's the other angle of literary references involved in the Dorian story, and I don't think we've had a companion who you could call Faustian.

Oooh.

 

We should have a choice to break his pact and have him instantly age to dust, or let him keep it going so we can ride that mustache all the way to Tevinter.

Use it when you inevitably have to make a new one.

My favorite romance arcs in DA have all been heterosexual. Im hoping DAI changes that.

Semi-confirmed rumor, Dorian Pavus is a Vanessa/Ursula analogue.

 

In other news, I love MattH with all my heart for drawing that.

[Mockingword]

I'd still hit it.

[ElitePinecone]

unholy monstrosity for LI

[Nika]

Maybe DHMG won't be an LI because he only loves himself

No one is worthy to touch the 'stache

Nah, we'll bond over how incredibly self-absorbed we both are.

Based on that you'd think him and Viv would have something to talk about...

[Lebanese Dude]

I love this thread.

[Nika]

I'm really looking forward to Viv's and DHMG's banter

Maybe they'll team up to make fun of poor Solas

[Nocte ad Mortem]

Honestly, I sort of feel like Dorian might be the one Vivienne has an "explosive" relationship with. Vivienne is the pro-circle mage rep. Dorian doesn't agree with everything Tevinter does, but he just wants to root out the corruption. I'm doubtful that means he doesn't think mages should be completely free, or even the ones in power.
