True, though you'd think they'd implement what's supposed to be in there before trying to add in more though.

I think it's too many moving parts to get the synchronicity just right, tho. Anyhoo, yeah, more time would have been awesome... but I'm still hopeful for DLC and expansions to flesh out some of these topics for us. Here's hoping!

I loved the game tbh but there are things I felt were very disjointed... pacing the game while romancing an LI cant be hard especially if you rush the romance stuff (like me) and then no one will have anything new to say for ages...

 

I think what I had difficulty with is things were your romance wasn't recognised at all... no party banter... or things like at Adamant, Cullen has nothing to say about throwing the Quizzy head on into the fray or especially after coming out of the fade... I'm not sure if any of the romances have that?

I get it's easier to do generic but would of been nice is all...

 

Anyway, I haven't played in a few days and thinking about trying Solas romance... we'll see how it goes!

Well, thank the Maker this lays all the hurtful theories and arguing to rest. Jeesh. We're so lucky we got him as a romance at all... but for some folks to come so close... Oh man.  :(

 

I know it hurts to be disappointed like that. I certainly have been about other things, but I'm feeling kind of concerned on behalf of all the devs because I fear that they're going to get an extra ton of hate now. I know it's probably foolish of me since I can't actually stop people from spewing vitriol at the undeserving. I know it won't matter one whit to some people that they made an attempt to include this content or that they were forced to cut/edit it because of logistics or time or money. There are people who will still get yelled at and belittled even if they had no influence or involvement over that aspect of the game. The attitude that "I didn't get what I want so I'm going to blame someone convenient" really disturbs me. I wish people would just think before they speak (type) sometimes. Cool heads are so much better for discussion than hot tempers (almost wrote Templars  :blush: ) I really hope that people will choose not to lash out even though they may be hurting right now.

Yeah, maybe once we can figure out how the romance and general companion interactions/cutscenes should be paced then it'll feel a little better. Currently I can't tell if/when those encounters are timed, I don't like to leave them for too long in case I miss my chance to trigger them. During my first playthrough I didn't even think to pace it because the devs had said that the companion/advisor/LI content had been paced out across the missions to make it feel more natural, but as far as I can tell, only certain things happen specifically after set quests and the rest pop/appear whenever it feels like it, LOL!

Same! And I want to fix that damn hole in the ramparts near the stables! Why does that never get fixed?

 

Gatsi, stop messing around with them mosiac tiles and fix the dang wall already!

 

LOL! My brain reads this and goes, "But someone did! ... right?? Um, wait... no, heh, I guess they didn-- Um, nevermind! " :lol: :lol:

 

How lame is it that the only enemy to attack Skyhold does so with a goat... that hits the wall with so little force, all it does was make him break wind?

Well, there is an ominous message sent to the Skyhold during Varric's Hard in High Town quest chain on the war table. I wish I could find a quote of it but basically it seems to be some sort of warning to us that supposedly wasn't sent by the culprit plagiarising Varric's work.

The Dragon Age Confession mod got a "Die Straight *****" message in her fanmail because she would not post a confession that wished death on straight people.   That blog is very LGBT friendly....but then people get mad because she wont post hate confessions on straight people.

Please tell me that they also have a deviantArt. 

 

Okay, I've been trying to keep up with this thread, but I keep being away for a few days, and as such, the thread hurries forth from where I last checked in. So, what have I missed since page 4020 or so?

 

Also, I told the boyfriend about the Cullen nude model that shows he's one sexy Ken doll, but I haven't been able to re-find them. Help?

 

And for those who want/need a bunch of Cullen refs, vola!

Hate to break it to all of you who want modders to come to rescue over the cut romance content. Just because we have access to audio files and stuff means bugger all. It’s nowhere near as simple as adding a few lines of code to make him romanceable by everyone. It may be possible to trick the game into thinking you're female like in that bug some people are getting but we wouldn't be able to add the romance dialogue back in.Not to mention we have no tools to actually create new cutscenes and it’s unlikely we ever will given that cutscenes are done in-engine in real time so we can't just extract and change the ones we want.To cut a long story short, no toolset = no bisexual Cullen purely because a tonne of the assets required for the romance don’t exist and can’t be created in a way that frostbite would accept. :(

I just got to that part again, I figured it was the Crows, but I might be mixing it up with that Crow quest later on?

 

Plus the six crossed swords on that note isn't their symbol?

Probably best not to backtrack at this point. Today's been a little rough for the fandom. :)

They also don't post confessions wishing death upon any other group either, though ... *sigh*  Some people get so unreasonable when they're anonymous. Sometimes it seems like common sense isn't a thing anymore.

I've seen the opposite happen when someone supporting the idea of Cullen's bisexuality ended up with pages of anon hate and angry ad hominem attacks. Some people just get way too aggressive and riled up about things.

 

My introduction to the Dragon Age series has also been my introduction to the world of fanfiction and headcanon because up till this point I've only had to deal with my own versions of events in my favorite games. The multitude of options we get in this series makes it essential that we, as fans, learn to separate our personal worlds from those of others. It's not possible for any of us to enjoy interpreting events the same way as someone else given all our choices and personal preferences. While some things are presented to us as canon in dialogue, I don't see why anyone else should ever feel the need to attack someone for wanting to envision their own scenarios provided there's nothing to prove otherwise. And even if there is proof, who cares? People should be happy in their own heads.

 

It doesn't even matter what "side" they are on at this point - everyone just needs to learn to chill and keep a level head, like narcia says. The way some people have dealt with their disagreements is the real problem here. Hopefully this debate will die out in the next few days since Lola's enlightened us all.
