Just got a clarification that the most romances than any BioWare game may have been a little premature/off the mark. So we now know there will be more than 4 romances in the game. Which we knew anyway.
Okay, so, back to about six? [NODS] Good to bring expectations down, anyway.
AUGGG. [TUGS AT HAIR] I have an issue: a 2/4/2 allows for Cullen to be bisexual and have another non-human male be available to males. There needs to be a non-human romance for males, and the only non-human companions left are male. So, [SPREADS HANDS] here's my problem.
In a 2/2/2 system, if Cullen is bisexual no one else can be bisexual. So, that means the non-human male character would have to be the gay option for there to be a non-human romance available to male characters. Dorian is not non-human, and, thus, would have to be straight. However, there is some evidence that the Iron Bull is bisexual [POINTS TO PREVIOUS POSTS], and thus Cullen is straight, which means Dorian is gay.
So, in a 2/2/2 system, the Logic dictates:
STRAIGHT: Cullen; Scribbles
BISEXUAL: Cassandra; The Iron Bull
GAY: Sera; Dorian
[COVERS HEAD] IT'S JUST LOGIC, IT'S NOT PERSONAL I SWEAR.
In a 2/4/2 system, Cullen can be bisexual and still have room for bisexual!Iron Bull:
STRAIGHT: Vivienne; Blackwall/Varric/Solas
BISEXUAL: Cassandra, Scribbles; The Iron Bull, Cullen
GAY: Sera; Dorian
They could also just have 5 LI's, with Cullen being the sole NPC romance, but my brain twitches when I try to figure out a way to make that work fairly.
