True. I'm willing to put up with grumpiness, but a-holes need not apply.
I might be a bit scarred by DA2...

Have you ever played the Anomen romance from BG2? The most challenging romance in the BioWare games, I think. He's a haughty, prickly, insecure braggart ( a victim of an abusive father) that grows a lot in a sort of journey of discovery over the course of the story, but man it was hard to deal with him at first. The romance was added after the character's personality was done, so David had a major challenge for that one. Heh.
Long story short - I feel your pain. ![]()

I tried once and decided *Viconia* was less of a problem.
In all seriousness, I have had absolutely no luck with the male LIs.

That blacksmith next to Leliana looks BAMF! I hope we get to meet him. That mustache!
Yes, he sure does, I can't wait to meet him. Hope he's one of the NPCs you can at least flirt with.
Hmm, wonder if some of those background people are agents we can recruit and potential allies?
It's fun being hyped and planning ahead, but looking back at my DAO and DA2 experiences, some characters I liked the looks of turned out offputting and some characters I didn't like at first glance completely won me over once I got to talk to them.
Yeah, I started out thinking Alistair was way too much of a puppy, but set out to romance him on my first PT anyway because I wanted to be queen. Then decided that he matured a lot through the game and he grew on me. And I didn't like Leliana at first, but she grew on me a lot (her DLC helped change my opinion), though to judge by her behavior in the gameplay demo, I'm going to love the older Leliana. I liked Shale from the beginning and only like her more as time goes on, while my opinion of Zevran and Morrigan hasn't really changed much. But I like Sten and Wynne less than I did at first, oddly.
Hmm, wonder if some of those background people are agents we can recruit and potential allies?
Pretty sure they are, yeah. The other artworks in the same set as this one had important characters depicted for each culture, like Tallis/Arishok/Salit on the qunari one, Celene/Gaspard/Prosper on the Orlais one, etc.
Maybe not every person in the figure (some look like generic foot soldiers), but the more distinctive looking ones, like the smith, the fancy hat guy, the hooded guy, and the military-looking fellows, those I'm reasonably sure are going to be either your close staff (like the three advisors), or allies you recruit along the way.

Same here. I love DA2's male LIs, and I think their story arcs were fascinating. But if I had a dollar for each time I wanted to strangle one of them, I might actually be able to get the fancy-pants Inquisitor Edition
"GODDAMNIT ANDERS/FENRIS/SEB" was basically my warcry for DA2.
Daum, Dorian looks amazing! He really is most attractive from LI's.. no from game to me (sorry Cullen!). I'm glad I can play as guy and romance him ![]()
Merrill's relationship is the closest pairing to approach normalcy in DA2.

I'm glad too! I've never done any same sex romances before (it just never occurred to me before) but I am definitely making a male quizzy to romance Dorian, he's bloody hot! I'm also looking forward to my femquizzy being rejected by Dorian (hopefully we can still try flirting with him at first)
so wait, that leaked survey concept art of Cullen that we all thought looked like his DA2 head was pasted onto... Actually did have his DA2 head pasted onto?

I'm not sure if I should romance Dorian with my elf rogue or qunari mage. I kinda like idea of romancing Dorian with fellow mage and also with qunari cause Tevinter is in war with qunaris.. might be intresting
In other hand I wonder if my elf's personality goes better with Dorian.
After playing through enough times I was willing to consider Sebastian's chaste marriage proposal just to avoid the craziness.
Honestly is there any relationship in Dragon Age that's considered "normal"?

It seems so! I wonder if it's because they first were going to make him quite old and rough-looking but decided to make him better and younger looking? ![]()
I don't even think that ended in tragedy, at least not if you friended him.

I'm not sure what I'll make to romance him. Might wait til after my first PT (which I will romance Cullen) and then come up with someone to romance Dorian. I think though I'll go for a rough rugged look
I don't know. The other concept (the same of the inquisition concept are where Cullen is present, only with a different face), still looks older then his current appearance in DAI.
I got the impression that they tweaked his look quite a bit. I think there was a comment or talk about how they would email Liz Cullen's look and she'd say something like "hotter" (he needs to be hottter) or was this is dreamland and I imagined it?
No, it did happen. I think Lolalei said that originally They wanted to make him older originally. My point is that his concept Without the DA2 head copy-paste reflects his older original look too. I don't know if there are concepts about his new younger look.I'm not sure what I'll make to romance him.

Do you think the companions & advisor will appear in the art of thedas book or they stay away from them?
Just curious to think if they are included how far back or update to date their appearance will be
Damn construction area had it blocked off!
So close and yet so far away

About the Drago Age art book:
You can see concept art of Varric, so I think it's safe to say that companions will be included, advisors probably, too
